Lace Lingerie Lusting

Leave a Comment

Like the typical girly girl, I'm besotted with anything Victoria's Secret and Boux Avenue related, their stores are a one stop haven for all of your lingerie and nightwear needs. But topping VS and Boux are the more exquisite and luxurious brands; Agent Provocateur for instance. A tiny insight into their ranges at NET-A-PORTER.com displays some of their new and pre-existing collections, along with beautiful intimates from Elle Macpherson, Stella McCartney and the incredibly stunning La Perla.

 All of their lingerie pieces speak for themselves - most often featuring satin and lace, adorned with intricate embellishments on a palette of mauve pink, neutrals, black and vibrant red. The eye-watering price tags may be a little off-putting, but for true luxurious style and when you're wanting to channel your inner supermodel, these would be my definite lingerie staples if my bank balance would suffice!

Loving Lately | The Blog Edit

Leave a Comment
Trailing the internet and social media in the form of sourcing outfit, beauty and lifestyle-related inspiration only ever leads me to two places; Blogs and the ever addicting - Instagram. Here's my two cents on the Blogs that have been taking the upmost of my attention and the ones I've been especially loving lately..


As a huge addict of 'Laguna Beach', 'The Hills' and spin-off 'The City', Lauren Conrad & co. were my ultimate 'look-up-to' hair, beauty and style icons back in the day. I could watch re-runs of any of the above for hours upon end; with each new episode unraveling more drama, makeups and breakups from my favourite California & New York City socialites than the previous. (If it wasn't Audrina confessing her love/hate relationship with Justin Bobby, it was the unforgettable 'Speidi' wedding with the dramatic departure of LC.. I was well and truly addicted).

Fast forward to 2015 and the cast having all gone their separate ways, say Hello to 'The Lo Down' blog; the wondrous brainchild of no other than Laurens BFF - Lo Bosworth. The Lo Down is a one-stop haven for lifestyle, fashion, food and beauty posts from Lo herself, and other fashion-forward alike authors. I'm a huge lover of all things New York, and having relocated there herself, the posts dedicated to finding the best Manicure Salons or cosiest Cafe's in NYC are only making me want to book a one-way flight over there with little intention of ever coming back! Along with the blog, Lo also features a lot of view-worthy content over on her YouTube channel; showcasing chic hairstyle tutorials, season-friendly beauty picks and yummy dessert recipes to name but a few.

FROW at Runway shows, hot on the heels of Paparazzi at her Paris, New York and Milan Fashion Week debuts, and globe-trotting from one prestigious city to another all in the name of fashion - at only 20 years old Kristina Bazan of 'Kayture' leads the fast-paced and incredibly inspiring life the fashion aficionados among us can only dream of.

Just a tiny glimpse at Kristina's social media platforms (Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat) portrays an insight into the endless incredible global success and adventures she embarks on every day. The trademark hashtag she most often uses - #kaytureonthego is very apt. and the perfect way to describe Bazan's non-stop lifestyle. With effortless 'city girl' style and her signature winged-liner that even a make up perfectionist would be envious of, 'Kayture' is a definite favourite and daily go-to for lifestyle, travel and fashion musings.

Prada, Daisy & YSL | Current Favourites

Leave a Comment

Prada Candy Florale - I purchased this in New York subsequently lusting after for it for months - the Prada store on Fifth Ave is a dream and I was a little too ecstatic to finally get my hands on it.. (whilst yearning for the Saffiano totes and their $$$$ price tags.) The scent is sweet, feminine and self-explanatory - floral. With heart notes of Peony, Top notes of Limoncello and Base notes of Caramel and Musk, it's my current firm favourite.

Marc Jacobs Daisy Dream - In my opinion, the cutest form of any perfume - rollerball. I really wish we had these more readily available in the UK as I'd probably be stocking up on a few of my favourite perfumes! I was a huge fan of the 'Daisy Eau So Fresh' scent, but I'm finding myself reaching more for the 'Daisy Dream' rollerball lately - easy enough to pop in your bag & touch-up during the day without hoarding a huge perfume bottle around (and the possibility of it being smashed - heartbreaking just thinking about it..)

YSL Babydoll Mascara - If anything, it was the gold packaging that enticed me.. but as ever, anything remotely YSL related is bound to be a winner. After curling my lashes with my trusty Shu Uemura's, I apply one coat of this, leave it for a minute then apply another for the ultimate clump-free finish. I find the formula doesn't transfer or give you that unattractive 'spider lashes' look, and feels pretty lightweight as a mascara when worn. I'm almost completely out of this beauty, so will definitely be on the lookout for the next high-end (snob) mascara soon!

What are your current loves? If you have any recommendations let me know!

xo, Stephanie
