Em hello, did somebody say Christmas? I don't think I've ever quite seen a pair of shoes that embody the festive season as much as these, without being tacky. Rich colours, kooky berry detail, chunky heel and sturdy platform (for comfortable and steady party feet)! I'm in love with them. Sadly Topshop have sold out online, but perhaps your local will have a pair. I think they are gorgeous!!

Haul, GWP & Swatches: YSL Beauty Look Noel 2011

Image
I'm so excited to show you this little haul. Last week I took a trip to Debenhams because I'd managed to rack up £25 on my Beauty Card and £15 of that was due to expire, so needed spent. A hard life eh? I had intended to spend it on some more Lancome (even although I'd bought some the week before at the Boots Christmas night), as Lancome had a rather cute GWP on. I decided to browse the fragrance department first and passed by the Yves Saint Laurent counter on the way and got completely sucked in (in a good way). They also had a gift with purchase, when you spent £40 and although I'm not as familiar with YSL products as I am with say Lancome or MAC, I thought I'd take a peek.

Any free makeup and you know I'm all over it! Diet Coke have taken a break (haha, see what I did there?) from their usual Nails Inc promotions of free nail polish and opted instead for a collab with Models Own. You get a free lipgloss (worth £6) with the purchase of 2 small bottles (500ml) of Diet Coke at Boots . There are 4 different glosses to collect and each has been specifically designed for this 'Christmas Kisses Collection', so you can't buy them anywhere else. My sister immediately got me the Golden Nude one, as she knew that was 'my colour' and then I asked her to also get the Pure Plum one the next day (which she thought would be the other one I'd like-doesn't she know me well?). The other two colours are a very festive red (Lacquer Red) and a milky pink (Glossy Pink, which I'd quite like to see in person). Both the glosses have loads of glitter in them, which doesn't feel gritty on the lips at all. I wore Pure Plum the other day a...
