[BRANDS I LOVE] Delicious Skin

 Source: www.decliciousskin.com.au

So a year or two ago something hit me. It hit me like a tsunami, slapped me in the face. DUN DUN DUUHHH!! I am getting OLD. So 27 is not old at all. I get that. But gone are the days where I can waltz out of the house with eyeliner, mascara and not much else on my skin. In my teens I was lucky enough to have near perfect skin. Looking back on old clubbing photos from my partying days I had enviable clear skin with a smooth, dewy, even complexion and I probably didn't even know what foundation was. As the years passed, I think as a follow on from not wearing foundation in my teens and early 20s I was still blessed enough to get away with just some concealer under the eyes and on my chin to cover my hormonal pimple scars.

[BRANDS I LOVE] Scarlett Vegan Bags

Once in a while I like to pick a vegan brand that I love and test out a product. This month I've been using this beautiful Scarlett Bags tote. I desperately needed a tote this winter as I find it hard to shove my jumpers/cardigans into my other smaller handbags and since Sydney winter is crazy (sometimes hot, sometimes cold) it's best to be prepared for a random weather change by throwing an extra jacket or jumper into your bag. I was also lacking tan coloured bags in my wardrobe so this was the perfect pick!

[RUG UP] Top 5 Cruelty Free Knits for Winter

Even though the weather here in Sydney is still quite crazy - freezing mornings, beautifully sunny days and dropping back to icy nights, it is always good to have a warm and snuggly knit handy. Lucky for me, there are some beautiful 100% cotton options out at the moments so there is no need to harm an innocent sheep in order to keep warm.

[AUTUMN PICKS] Cruelty Free Picks For A Confused Autumn!

Hi lovely people! It's been a while between posts as I've been busy with work and a project that I will launch in the next couple of months!

If you live in Australia you may be experiencing the confused weather situation we are dealing with at the moment. It's meant to be Autumn/Fall but sometimes I go outside and it's either Summer or Winter (nothing inbetween) and sometimes the seasonal changes happen within the same day. I'm pretty sure this is the outcome of what they warned us about (and we ignored, like it was some sort of conspiracy theory) - GLOBAL WARMING.

[ETHIQUE 212] Vegan Brands I love!

I love discovering new vegan brands! Yes, there are heaps of brands out there that do not use animal products but there aren't that many that do it for the sake of animals. I also get excited when I find ethical labels who not only consider the lives of the innocent, but those who also care for the environment and the human lives they impact.

[SUIT UP] Manstyling 101

I've always been a bit more of a tomboy than a girly girl (in terms of fashion at least). I used to be the  girl on mufti days to come dressed up in my brothers baggiest jeans and Adidas sports jacket (in size XXL) - think 8 Mile. To this day, although my clothes fit much better, I still feel much more comfortable in a pair of pants than I do in a dress or skirt so when I can I try to dress up the humble trouser with something more feminine or some great accessories.

[LUXE] How To Shop Vegan Luxe

Giving up leather for me was an easy decision to make, but not exactly easy when put into practice. I can however proudly say it has been around 2 years since I've given up purchasing anything made from animal skin but I have had to make some fashion sacrifices along the way. However, over the years I have learnt a few things about getting my hands on some deliciously luxe, cruelty-free things, so if you love designer fashion but want to find some animal friendly options, keep reading.
