Outfit + New Favourite Lipgloss

Today marks 12 weeks since I came home from hospital, is that not crazy?! Yeah. The weather has warmed up a little (i.e. temperature is now above freedom) so I took the oppurtunity to wear something that doesn’t require a zillion layers!

This shirt dress is at least four years old, quite possibly older than that. I found it in a GAP outlet shop and don’t wear it a lot because it’s dry clean only and I have a tendency to spill things.

I’ve also recently become an Eyeko Ambassador and after making my first sale they sent me one of their lipglosses in Primrose Hill

I’ll admit, I was dissapointed. I’m not really a lipgloss girl, I find it sticky and annoying and I’d rather wear a tinted lipbalm or nude/pale pink lipstick.

The colour is pretty, described as:

A pretty lilac shimmer for girls on the go. This suits-all shade is ultra flattering.

And I think I’ve found a lipgloss I’ll wear. It’s a little sticky, but not enough to annoy me. The smell is gorgeous! And the colour? Well perfect for a low key but polished look!

An added bonus is it’s left my lips feeling in good condition, this cold weather has wreaked havoc on them, and sometimes I find lip products just irritate this. Eyeko are surely on to a winner!
Next on my to try list is their famed Fat Balms, though I can’t decide between Toffee and Frosting

If you fancy trying Eyeko for yourself you can use my code E12740 and get a free gift when you spend Β£15 or more!
I totally recommend the lipgloss, the cream and the nail polishes!
If you’ve used Eyeko before I’d love to know what you think and for you to help me make a fat balm decision!

  12. You look lovely Laura, that shade of lipgloss is very pretty. I’ve never tried Eyeko’s products before but I’m tempted to now. It’s very cold here in Milton Keynes as well, so I share your pain! xxx

  13. I love the outift, although I hate it when you buy something that’s dry clean only as I hardly ever wear them! x

  14. The shirt dress is a really lovely piece, I’m glad it’s not only me who hangs onto clothes from years ago. This is a really smart and sophisticated look, and the tights are as fabulous as ever xx

  22. I really love your dress! Shame it’s dryclean only, but you should definitely wear it more often!

    I received my first piece of Eyeko through the mail today, coincidentally! I ended up buying the lip pen and used your code! It’s taking getting used to as I’m not really a lipstick person, but I really like it and it seems to last quite well.

  23. Wow πŸ™‚

    I love the outfit…

  41. I love it how sometimes older pieces can looks so new – would never tell this dress is older than 6 months – it looks super trendy and like it could be from some very recent collection.

  42. These hues just become you. One of my all time faves on you, dear. You look so cute. A bit Frenchy. Your face shines. Totally beautiful.

    12 weeks… and seems like you are going on strong. I applaud. I hug. I know how it is – ups and downs, but the most important remains to advance, bit(e) by bit(e). Huh huh… lil’ humor never does any wrong!

  43. So I just bought purple tights yesterday and totally thought of you =-) Happy weekend!

  44. Love the colour of this lipgloss it looks perfect for party season too!

  45. nice dress! and i really like the tights too!

  56. Congratulations: 12 weeks. That is such a milestone.

    You look wonderful. (That’s a subtle and sophisticated favourite of mine: Using that kind of lovely – dry clean only! – grey almost gunmetal colour with that particular green tights – and pink lips. Perfect).

    I know what you mean about sticky lip gloss: I can’t bear it. Lately my favourite thing is a tin of some kind of rose lip balm -I bought it at American Apparel but it’s the kind of thing you can get anywhere – and using that and mixing it with some pale pink lipstick sometimes. But really, you’re so pretty, Laura, you don’t need anything. You’ve got great lips, all you really need is lip balm to make them shine.

    I am so happy for you, and your family and friends must be so pleased and proud. To think: I remember you posting shots of your baking last year – you got me started – and now you’ll really be able to enjoy the fruits of your labour!

    Have a lovely Sunday. xoxo

  57. ur outfit is simply classic =) and I love the gloss! Its pretty without being too much =)
