H&M | My Make Up Trunk

September wishlist

Putting together this months wishlist has gotten me so excited for Autumn/Winter. I can’t wait to start wearing dark lips, scarfs and coats again, I for one am definitely a winter person. My September wishlist includes more fashion items than normally as I want to update my wardrobe for the new season, and I am starting to buy little bits for my trip to New York in January (SOO excited!)

In terms of fashion items I’ve been lusting after this imitation leather skirt from H&M, I think when paired with tights and boots it’ll be a staple in the winter months. Next I’ve been trying to find the perfect beige/nude coat, I want something like the one pictured above but I don’t want to pay an arm and leg for it. I think coats like this are so timeless and go with pretty much ever outfit, I particularly think it’ll look beatiful when worn with this tartan scarf from River Island that I’ve been lusting after. Last but not least I’ve been looking to get a plain crisp white shirt, just to wear tucked into skirts or with black jeans. I think even though it’s so simple it’s a really put together look that looks smart but casual. If you know of anywhere that does any nice reasonable priced ones please let me know.

Onto the beauty items on my wishlist this month. Mac released their long awaited Simpsons collection at the beginning of the month, and being the huge Simpsons fan that I am I want everything! I really want to get my hands on the blush in Pink Sprinkles in particular though. As pautumn winter is just around the corner I’ve been slowly starting to incorporate darker lips and different eye looks into my make up. The three main things I’m wanting to get for the new season is firstly an old favourite foundation of mine, Mac Studio Fix Fluid. I wore this foundation every day last winter and I honestly don’t know why I didn’t repurchase it. Next is the Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette. I’ve never really seen the big deal with this palette compared to the other naked ones and I do think it’s a lot of money for just six eyeshadows, but I like to wear more matte eyeshadows in the colder month and I think this has every basic matte you’d need. Lastly I couldn’t not include a lipstick. I really want a new staple winter lipstick, and I think Mac’s Russian Red is the one that I’ve decided on. it’s a matte deep red and it’s definitely the next thing I’m going to buy.

What’s on your wishlist this month?

1. Zara City Bag – I’ve wanted this bag for around a year now but there’s always a little voice inside my head telling me not to spend £50 on a plain black bag. The simplicity of the design is so me and it literally would go with everything!

2. H&M Croc Sneakers – These may not be to everyones taste but I personally love them and for £19.99 you can’t go wrong! I am desperate for new shoes and I think these would take me from the end of the winter right through to the upcoming summer season. Definitely on my to buy list!

3. Urban Outfitters Globe Face Leather Watch – This watch has been in my bookmarks for around 3 months now ans i’ve never got around to buying it due to always spending the remainder of my money on make up (oops!) I’m currently studying travel and tourism in college and anything with a globe or map on it I instantly want, so this is a must buy!

4. Nars Laguna Bronzer – I’ve been lusting after this bronzer for over a year and I honestly have no idea why I haven’t bought it yet. I am bronzer obsessed as I love the contoured look and think it completley frames a face so after spending the best part of a day reading and watching reviews on this product It has been on my wishlist ever since.

5. Mac Pro Longwear Concealer – I have been using the mac studio fix fluid foundation for nearly six months now (I really need to get a new bottle!) and it’s safe to say that I’ve fallen in love with it and mac in general to be perfectly honest. I’ve been wanting to try this product after watching a highlighting tutorial on YouTube, I love the full coverage matte finisn it gives and can’t wait to try it out.

6. Babyliss Boutique Soft Waves Tong – I’ve been curling my hair with my trusty mark hill raw hair curler for around two years now, and being a lover of soft wavy hair this product looks a perfect one for me try out and say goodbye to my old one.
