There were a few great releases this month, and some great albums that I listened to for the first time during November. All in all I had a pretty good time. I am kind of sick of my quarterly playlist now and very excited for January to move onto next year’s but I’m sure half of my December will be spent listening to the result of my Spotify Wrapped anyway. Very excited for that. Continue reading “november 2022 playlist”
I have shared my daily skincare routine on here a lot, and it hasn’t changed a lot over time. But I have a more intense, full routine for when my skin really needs it. It’s a lot and I have to give it a lot of time to get into my skin. Truly an evening gone, I take this time to clean my retainers and it’s a whole process. But it’s great and it works and I will always rely on this routine for when my skin is looking haggard. Continue reading “my emergency fix skincare routine (the works)”
Truly the warm, sunny weather is gone. This was a cold, wet week. My jacket, scarf, shoes and jewellery barely changed all week but the other pieces were cute and comfy. If I wasn’t wearing at least 3 layers at all time I was uncomfortable and I wonder how long that will last. I’m strangely excited to get styling into even colder weather as we hit true winter. This is a very comfortable week. Continue reading “november 2022 ootw”
This is a haul, but I have spent a lot of money recently and brought a lot of things that I first of all would not be able to keep track of it all, and it would be a very long post if I could. So I’m picking 16 things of all types and kinds of items, and sharing them here. I need to be better at not spending and will try to focus my shopping needs into presents for others as much as possible now. Continue reading “16 things i’ve brought recently that i really really like”
I am very much focused right now on working my collection down as much as possible. I rejigged my collection a bit and I right now have 5 stacks of books on my bedroom floor. All unread. I need to get that down. So I am grabbing 2 books I’m not mad about and one that I want to read. My aim is to get rid of as many books as possible for the rest of the year and see how I do. The reason for this rant is that there are like 4 books here I do not have any memory of and I’m not going to pretend that I do. Continue reading “10 more things i’ve read recently”
I am rewatching Friends fully for the first time since I was like 10. Not fully like I’m skipping episodes but I’m watching like 90% of it. There are like 3 posts I can do about it so apologies in advance if these are boring. I’m starting with a quick ranking of the main 6 characters from least favourite to favourite. I actually am going into this not knowing how I’m going to rank the top 5 of them, so this will be interesting for me. I do know who is the worst. Continue reading “my personal ranking of the ‘friends’ friends”
Since like August, I’ve been reasoning away purchases with the idea that I can look for it closer to Black Friday when there are pretty major sales. Here is some of this year’s batch of such items. Truly I never buy much for Black Friday but I really can now which is nice. The routine ‘I was double checking this item to include it and I ended up just buying it’ of this post is the Lime Crime Venus 1 palette which I got for £19 on Revolve? Really very confused and it feels like something will go wrong, but this is all unrelated. Continue reading “a black friday wishlist: clothing and beauty”
I like to capture random days like this, and the things I ate on this day in particular were regular for me (or at least nothing super special) but things I love and that I am always happy to have. It has been a minute since this day and the extra, non-meal bits I have forgotten. So assume there were snacks involved that I have no memory of. Continue reading “a very quick, very autumnal what i eat in a day (realistic and vegetarian)”
I thought I like just did this post but it was actually posted in like June and so it has been a minute. And in that time I have switched up my makeup routine a decent amount, enough to make sharing it again not completely unnecessary. I’ve been liking my makeup a lot more recently too. I have a few issues with some things that I am figuring and sorting out but I will get there. Continue reading “my current makeup routine (november 2022)”
I have truly ignored my physical ways of listening to music recently and that needs to change. I for sure have not been ignoring picking up physical music so there’s a lot of new things in my collections. Here are 10 albums I’ve picked up over the last few months, why I got them and my initial thoughts on them. Continue reading “listening to 10 classic albums i’ve picked up recently”
