Taylor Swift Inspired | Style Steal

Hello!

If anyone reading this knows me, you know how much I love Taylor Swift. She is currently in Australia for the last leg of her 1989 tour and I’ve taken half an hour out of crying over the fact that I’m not attending her concert, to show some reinventions of my favourite outfits of hers.

Taylor has a very stylish, girly style and wears loads of coats. As it is Australian summer, and where I live it is easily up to 40^oC every day, I didn’t want to wear coats (besides, I don’t even own any). 

These are just a few of my favourites. I’m wearing Maybelline Colour Drama in Red Essential through the whole post.

Look #1

This is such a casual outfit, perfect for a shopping or coffee date. She’s wearing high waisted navy shorts, with a plain white singlet and a grey cardigan. The brown boots and red lips really top this outfit off.

Look #3

This is my second favourite look of the bunch, it’s so simple and super cute. I would wear this anywhere (although it is a bit too hot).

Look #4

My favourite outfit, not just because of Meredith, but because it’s summer appropriate. I will definitely be wearing this outfit often throughout summer.

There we go! Hope you enjoyed this style steal, I’m hoping to do more sometime soon.

May Favourites

Hello all!

It always feels like I go to sit down and write a post and I’m again writing my favourites! It’s so easy to write these posts as I just talk about what I have been loving!

Anyway, onto the goods:

Makeup:

Too Faced Original Chocolate Bar Palette

This was an enabled purchase for me as my sister was at Mecca and texted me saying, ‘do you want choc palette?’ and I said yes. For $65 I think this is a semi-luxury palette but everyone needs it! Firstly, this smells AMAZING and the pigmentation is so good! This palette can create both a natural or creative look.

Nars Laguna Bronzing Powder

Ugh this is the most adorable packaging. I love clean, cut things so this packaging is amazing in my eyes. It looks a bit orangey, but it doesn’t blend out that way. It is extremely blendable and can be used as a light contour. For $ 49 this is an expensive bronzer, however, if you love makeup like me, it’s worth it.

LA Girl Pro Concealer

This is the first concealer I have found that can cover these dreaded dark under eye circles I’ve been getting recently. I think the reason why is because it has a pink undertone. For $3, you can’t go wrong!

Rimmel Blush in Coral

This is an everyday colour that has a smooth payoff. It’s a coral shade that I believe would look good on every skin tone. It is great for adding a bit more warmth to my cheeks.

ELF Highlighter in Gotta Glow

I want to compare this to Nars Albatross as I think they might be the same. It’s perfect for the cheekbones and not at all chalky. I am amazed at how much definition this can give your face.

MAC Painterly Paint Pot

This is holy grail for me! I cannot put eyeshadow on without it first. It covers up all my veins and makes all eyeshadows pop. I would recommend this to everyone who wears eyeshadow as it just makes everything better.

Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream

My lips have been terribly dry and chapped recently and this saved them! It isn’t tacky or liquidy which I love. It is a life saver!

Chichi Viva La Diva Lipstick in O.M.Nude

The perfect nude colour for light skinned girls! It has pink undertones but is mostly brown. The formulation is amazing (on par with MAC), and I need to collect more of these!

Music:

Kendrick Lamar

I love his new (ish) song King Kunta, which tells a historic story through song. It is incredibly catchy and if you have yet to hear it, do now!

Bad Blood Music Video Taylor Swift

PLEASE TAYLOR LET ME BE APART OF YOUR SQUAD IT WOULD MAKE MY LIFE THAT’S ALL I HAVE TO SAY.

Those are all my favourites for this past month, what are yours?

October/November Favourites

Hello! I know it’s been awhile since I’ve put up a post, to be fair I was extremely busy with the whole “graduating from high school” thing. I’ll do a post on that soon, but for now, I’ll just show you things I’ve been loving for October/November. (I miss October favourites).

I have tried to avoid buying too much makeup recently, as I have quite a lot to use up, and I need to save money before uni starts. Despite this, I have been reaching for the same items these past 2 months.

Rimmel Match Perfection

This foundation is probably in my group of holy-grails (which is basically empty, and extremely hard to get into). I love the coverage which is medium-full, and I love how it doesn’t cake over any blemishes I have.

Covergirl Flamed Out Mascara

It feels so weird to be raving about two mascaras twice in a row, but since I have bought this one, I have pretty much used it everyday. I love everything about this mascara, especially the brush.

Revlon Colour Balm-Elusive

I’m one of those people that when I hear someone raving about something, I automatically think, “I MUST HAVE IT” hijessicaanne on Instagram always used to rave about this. I bought it and fell in love. It is the perfect everyday colour!

Rimmel Stay Matte Primer

I love this primer for keeping my skin non-oily throughout the day.

Australis Contouring & Highlighting Palette

This palette has been sold out everywhere since it was released. It is supposedly a dupe to the ABH Contour palette but as I don’t have that, I cannot compare. I love the yellow highlighter for underneath my eyes, to brighten them up. I love how they have a choice of matte and shimmer shades to choose from.

Neutrogena Hydro Boost Moisturizer

This moisturizer is insane! It is extremely moisturizing but does feel as though you have layers of moisturizer on. I have always struggled with using moisturizer everyday but since getting this I don’t think I have missed a day yet!

Models Prefer Blush-First Kiss

This is a beautiful shade and has so much pigment! Seriously you only need a tiny bit. It has so much product for $10.99 at Priceline. I don’t think I have seen anyone rave about these but you should definitely try them!

Maybelline Brow Drama

It wasn’t until recently that I realised how important brows are! They really do everything to frame your face. This is a fantastic product in ensuring your brows stay in place all day.

Maybelline Dream Lumi Concealer

I am a concealer addict. I am always on the search for the best one, and this was is so good. It works as both a concealer and highlighter. The only downfall is the applicator, I don’t know why but I’m not too fond of brush style applicators on concealers.

Real Techniques Pointed Foundation Brush

I use this brush for both highlighting and dabbing on concealer. I rarely use any RT brushes for what they’re actually “supposed” to be used for. Eh.

1989-Taylor Swift

This album is EVERYTHING. I’m not a “huge Taylor Swift fan” so I’m not bias but every single song on this album, is a JAM. The music video for Blank Space is perfect. If you have yet to listen to ths album I would suggest you do.

Well, that’s all! Hopefully I’ll have more posts soon as now I have much more time on my hands!

Cheerio!
