House of Harlow 1960 Lusting!

So I am now on a self imposed (crappy) month long spending ban, its been 3 days and Im finding it tough especially when I'm signed up to receive newsletters from a great load of make-up, clothing and jewellery online stores! Of course I don't have to open them, but wouldn't that be rude of me? ;) 
Want that lipstick,please!
I got an email from accessories online yesterday, forcing me to view (ok i had to click to display images!) Nicole Richie's new lines in her 'House of Harlow 1960 collection' I love Nicole Richie's style so had a little cyber wander to check it out! There is also 10% off any orders made when you are signed up to receive the newsletter *dies*im totally broke and can afford nothing! Even if there was 99% off!! But a bit of lusting can't hurt!


14ct gold plated mini Key Necklace
£41.95

14ct gold plated black leather stack bangle
£96.95

14ct gold plated set of 5 stacking coin rings
£84.95

This is of course total wish listing as all I can think is how much stuff you could pick up in Primark for the price of just one HOH piece?! I do really need some rings though and im dying for a maxi dress maybe a little Primark spree wouldn't hurt!

The list...Part 1

I have been trying to come up with a post to do on a regular basis on pixielashes, and thought what better than 'The list?' Which is basically based on my never ending wish list, a list that is usually full up with cosmetic items, jewellery and clothes that I find through other bloggers, friends and general internet dossing.


So without question I am in desperate need of a MAC trip, its been too long and my list just for here is beyond huge!
Here are a few bits off of it...
1.Candy Yum Yum Lipstick
2.Giggly Blush
3.Impassioned lipstick
4.Vegas Volt Lipstick

These are my definite purchases when I pop to Nottingham at the weekend, I think I want to get 'shroom' eyeshadow, Angel lipstick and a couple of brushes aswell but I like to browse and swatch in store when I go MAC hauling ya know how it is! eek excited!


What else would you recommend picking up?

*Droooooolssss*


 I love doing these sorts of posts and think it will be a great way to link to the blogs that inspire/enable new purchases.


 I hope you guys will join in and tell me what you have on your wish lists, also if there are any products on mine that you have and if they are worth buying or scrapping from the list!

Bad influence Beauty Bloggers

I wasn't planning on doing a post today due to being slightly hungover and full of greasy food and mini eggs!!!
But after spending the day laying on the sofa reading every beauty blog i possibly could (you know when u fit from link to link?)
I am feeling inspired to (lazily,sorry) share a list of new found wants...



YSL TEINT RESIST 
I have actually wanted this for a while..i have a box full of magazine cut outs with tips and cute pics called 'Fordys fab box' (sad but true) and this foundation is in it.Thanks to this blog post by the fabulous Charlotte,this foundation is back on the list.....
So is this one...
Nars sheer glow
Again thanks to Charlotte @ charlottes obsession's foundation search post I have yet another foundation to add onto my very long list of wants!! I must do a post on all my foundations I've actually lost count of them but it's my fave make-up item ever its not my fault really!

Urban decay Alice in wonderland book of shadows
I've been desperate for this for a while,but seeing Charlotte @ lipglossing's breathtakingly stunning pictures of the Alice palette,the lust has been well and truly rekindled!!
If anyone knows where i can get this from without forking out nearly £100 on ebay I would be massively grateful!! x



The Charlotte's are officially bad for my bank balance
(great for my face though so meh!)


OPI Pirates of the carribean polishes
I'm not massively into nails as i don't have any of my own and normally wear falsies, but i'm a big sucker for cute product names! ( I would lovea job naming products) I saw these on The beauty scoop last week,and rather fancy 'sparrow me the drama'. 


Topshop eye crayons
The swatches and description provided by Georgina at make-up wishes were enough to convince me that I need to add these to my eye crayon collection ASAP!


And the BIGGEST bad influence award goes to...
ME!

Obviously It's nigh on impossible to peruse the internet without a spot of ASOS'ing......

Two faced 'lash gasm' Mascara



URBAN DECAY POCKET ROCKET  Lip gloss  (James)

I'm really loving these especially the fact that there are 9 shades,each of which has a man's name and a l'il man in it's lid CUTE AS HELL!!!!!!!!!!! I'm rather fond of James and Kirk,and wondering if they might be named after the guy's from Metallica!? 
There is also one named Timothy,which is my Dad's name so i might get it my Mum for Mothers day.


Ok I'm gonna stop now,I dont want to appear too greedy!

HAS ANYONE GOT ANY OF THE ITEMS ON THIS LIST?
PLEASE TELL ME ABOUT THEM IN THE COMMENT BOX BELOW!!

Because I have too much to say!!...

Currently...

Tanning with... 

Forget St.Tropez (Forgive me,old faithful),it's all about St.Moriz at the minute for me! Simple application,no nasty fake tan smell and £2.99 a bottle!!which means you get 6 and a half bottles for the price of one St.Tropez,Im constantly repurchasing and haven't found fault with it yet (oh ok,the blatent rip off of St.Tropez name is a bit of a bummer and doesn't look as en vogue on the dresser...BTW..Is St.Moriz a place or just a made up tanland??) 



Listening to...

Britney,Christina,Enrique and Eminem...this little nostalgia trip stemmed from when i was cleaning out my closet (Eminem pun intended!) and stumbled on a bunch of CD's from when i first met my boyfriend...aww takes me back! I love a wander down memory lane!

Shopping at...

Well...everywhere really!! The shopping bug has a hold of me pretty bad this month!! I do keep trying to justify it to my boyfriend by saying 'but there are so many nice things in the shops at the moment,and thats not my fault is it?..blame the shops babe!'

Favourites of the month are:

Primark...Pretty much a staple favourite,but this month i've picked up some really gorgeous things..ooh and their make-up range is suprisingly good!!



Dolled up...I'm fortunate enough to live near this shop,but check out their new website,and if you are ever in the area pop in! The store owners are amazing.


Next...The only reason I ever shopped here before was for my Son's clothes and home ware.( check out the vintage jar competition here)

I don't know what it is but I have always felt that Next is a shop that's just too structured and grown up for me :/ 
But this weekend after popping into the home dept and having to pay in the women's clothing dept,I noticed a section of perfumes,one of which had a bottle almost identical to YSL Cinema and which after a quick spritz I discovered to actually be a fab copy!...well for £6.50 as January's pay cheque is drying up, this promptly bumped up Next's appeal and now here it is a new fave!! They also have an amazing copy of Armani 'she'...My mum's fave she went nuts for it!!

The £6.50 bottle doesnt have the bling effect of the YSL bottle, but the larger sizes do.

Watching...

As we speak I'm watching sex and the city 2...Its only the second time I have seen it, the first was at the cinema with my best friend,we were absolutely doubled up in hysterics at the market scene where Samantha goes nuts! If you haven't seen it yet check it out asap its better than the first movie! 
SATC 2 xxx

I also saw Inception this month and LOVED it,I had to google it before watching as i'd heard it was a hard one to understand...that really helped and I totally enjoyed it,beginning to (crazy good) ending.

Also quick mention for 'The Vampire Diaries' as it is Tuesday after all, dont forget to get your Salvatore fix at 9pm itv2 ;) xxx

BITE ME DAMON!!



Reading...
Check out the l'il lego peeps!,
my son collects them and gives me his spares
!



As you can see,pretty much everything! Currently not reading would be a better description!
From The shopaholic series to books on buddhism and philosophy (FYI you need to check out the secret!!) 
 I can't seem to stick to one book or magazine at the moment! Blogs however I am sticking to and loving!!
Favourites mentioned here.

Wishing for...

I have heard nothing but good stories about this foundation,Alexa Cheung even tweeted about it the other week, a sample later and im hooked!!! 
Also on the lust list is the new Vivienne Westwood scent,not because i've sampled it! It's simply the fantastic name...am now wanting to go to the deed poll office....hmm....there's a thought!

Has anyone tried 'NAUGHTY ALICE?'Let me know what you think of it..xx

Well I fear that my posts are becoming a little self indulgent of late,but I love a good old snoop into what other bloggers are doing,buying etc and  really wanted to share a bit more about my life,promise to post some reviews this week!!!

Please leave your comments below and tell me what you have been buying,reading etc :) 

Loadsa love Nat xxx
