My 5 Faves Of The Month - August
“It’s my favourite time of the month. It’s 5 faves, 5 faves, 5 faaaavessss!” (Just imagine me singing this along with a little dance. Dawn – maybe it’s time for us to make a music video?!). Ok, anyway guys… it seriously IS my favourite time of the month as it’s a bit of time for some reflection and a chance to share everything I’m loving with you. August has been another busy one of work, day festivals, 40th birthdays and even planning a hen party! Here's everything I’m obsessed with right now in beauty, home and fashion…
Potentially THE best brow gel I’ve ever used. You know I don’t mess around when it comes to brow recommendations. This is lightweight but powerful.
This body oil smells like the soft, sexy skin of the person you love. Offft. Sorry, is that too much for a Saturday morning?! Enriched with rosehip, jojoba and vitamin C oil to nourish and protects the skin. I can’t get enough of this!
Telling you about this mascara feels like I’m letting you in on a trade secret. I used this on the cast of Why Am I So Single? – the new musical that I’ve designed the makeup for. I love this as its tubing and therefore doesn’t transfer. It’s super easy to take off, which is essential after a night on stage when bed is calling.
This is a stunning combination of pigment and glow. It blends so beautifully – and the shade range look gorgeous on any skin tone.
I love how hydrating and protecting this is. It adds a beautiful pink tint to your lips with a pH-activated colour – a formula that instantly reacts to your skin's chemistry, resulting in a colour that is unique to you. How cool is that?!
These chairs are giving art museum. I absolutely love the shape. Personally, I wouldn’t have them as dining room chairs but think one of these would look amazing in the corner of a bedroom. Because why shouldn’t your “laundry chair” (you know, the one we all dump clothes on) be gorgeous?!
Zara Home make some of the best high-street home fragrance on the market. I love opening our wardrobe doors and getting a waft of fresh laundry. Who doesn’t want their wardrobe to smell of fresh laundry all the time?
I am obsessed with Sophie Lou Jacobsen. These martini glasses are inspired by 1920s New York jazz clubs but with a modern twist. Sophie has my heart as these are sold in mismatching pairs! Asking for a friend… how many glasses can I own before it becomes a problem? I can always make space for more, but if you can’t… these would make an incredible gift for a friend.
This butter dish. Very elegant. Very demure. I asked Theo, “If I buy this butter dish, will you break it?” He said “Probably.” I said, “You butter not,” and bought it anyway.
Honestly, this striped oven mitt just makes me so happy whenever I see it in my kitchen. Life is too short to have an ugly oven mitt.
This bag with a pair of cowboy boots chefs kiss. A unique statement bag which is the perfect size! The colour. The studs. LOVE.
Zara’s jewellery game is great at the moment. These earrings are so unique and make such a statement. Pair with a matching pink lip, your favourite jeans and a white t-shirt.
My fave colour is green. My fave thing is sequins. So green + sequins = what’s not to love about this dress?! Wear it with trainers and a denim shirt for a casual vibe or dress it up with heels and a leather jacket. Be quick – it’s currently a mega 65% off so won’t be around for long!
I have always loved H&M for wardrobe staples, and these are the perfect court shoes. The shape elongates the foot and makes any fit look effortlessly elegant. These are an amazing day-to-night shoe as the heel height is super comfortable.
One of my absolute favourite jumpers in a trendy but timeless, sleeveless, version. This knit is so high quality and will last you forever. Worth every penny in my opinion!
That’s a wrap for my August 5 Faves! Whether you’re looking to add something new to your beauty routine, add something special to your home, or find that perfect trendy fashion piece, I hope you found some inspiration here. As always, let me know what you’ve been loving this month.
Love,
