WEAR //
I showed these Steve Madden boots in a recent haul video and I wanted to update you on how comfortable/not comfortable they are. It's good news... they don't hurt! I had to get a 6, which is a half size too small for me but as they're leather they do stretch and i've found them to be really comfortable. I really like how they look with skinny jeans and I know I'll get a lot of wear out them in the coming months!

This week I met the Laura Mercier which was a bit of a dream come true. So many people didn't even know that there was an actual person called Laura Mercier behind the brand, but there really is and she's incredible. We sat and chatted over breakfast, looking through her portfolio of impressive magazine cover shoots. She talked us through some of her most memorable shoots with Mariah Carey and Madonna. She told us how she started the brand and how difficult the transition was from behind-the-scenes make up artist to the face of her self-named makeup brand. I asked her a question about balancing lipstick shades with eyeshadows and she told me mine was perfectly balanced - life made. I learnt that her Secret Camouflage was the first product created and one of her favourites to this day, as she says "Secret Camouflage is the guy that never lets me down". She then told us about her new products launching which included some fabulous Christmas gifts and a brand new matte foundation called Smooth Finish Flawless Fluide. The whole experience made me fall in love with the brand all over again.

If you follow me on Twitter you will 100% know about my recent obsession with Cotton Candy grapes. Yep, you heard me right. Those clever farmers have created a hybrid grape that combines two types, together making a delicious grape that has the taste of cotton candy (or candy floss as we call it!). All the main supermarkets do them now, my favourite ones so far are from Marks & Spencer and Waitrose. I can't get enough, I'm completely addicted!! Buy some. You won't regret it.
Happy Saturday and have a great weekend!
