life update #001 ♥

Hi guys, I hope everyone is doing okay. I wanted to do a general catch up post today, I think it might be nice to have a life update once in a while as well as posting about beauty and fashion. On the weekend I played bowling (and actually won...) and I drove to Gravesend on Sunday morning to a vintage market to see Harri, one of my oldest friends - we actually met when we were 18 at university and we have stayed close ever since! The market was lovely, it had a selection of food, clothes and pretty much anything 40's, 50's related. I saw so many gorgeous faux fur coats, I did see a real fur coat but I just couldn't try it on. I love the look of real fur but I just hate the thought of wearing an animal that was skinned purely for fashion. It just doesn't sit right with me! After we had a look around the market, I picked up a faux fur gilet for £6.00! I'll have to do a little outfit post wearing it, I am usually awful at wearing coats with no sleeves on, I will probably freeze to death with this weather, but I really love the style and colour of this gilet.

We then went for dinner and I drove back home on the motorway, I never go on the motorway so this is a big deal for me, I don't know why I feel so anxious driving! I managed to take a few blog photos when I came back home but I just find the lighting really makes my photos look grey, not the look I want to create. Last night I treated myself to some Nando's and I've been watching The People V. OJ Simpson with Ollie, we are on episode 4 so far. I actually featured it in my Netflix post a few weeks ago. I am seriously hooked, it is such a fascinating case and Autopsy: The Last 24 Hours documentary gives a really solid backstory and insight to what happened that night. For my blog this week, I'll be writing a current favourites post and a few detailed product reviews, if there is anything in particular you would like me to review, let me know! What are your plans for this week, do you have any faux fur gilets, I would love to know how you wear them! ♥
