Just a Jumper Dress…

Is there anything easier to wear than a jumper dress?

To me the pro’s of a one item outfit are many…
Not worrying about coordination or accessories and feeling put together and smart to name a few.
I have missed wearing dresses as Sienna is still feeding, however she has cut down her feeding so much that during the day I now have some freedom back in my outfit choices.
August means Australian Winter is in full force and there are many rainy days.
It is not cold, like U.K Winter cold but it can still be pretty chilly
These jumper dresses with a cowl neck have been re-released for a few years now
Versatile and flattering
A great piece that you can wear with a biker jacket, a denim jacket or a scarf and completely change the look

Just a Leather Jacket and Joni’s Kinda day…

 

‘Move to Australia” they said
‘The weather is gorgeous” they said…

These overcast dull days mean that layering is not just a fashion statement, it is a must!
When we leave on the school run it is cold, sometimes wet and windy,
however by lunch time the sun is out and it is positively lovely
Today I opted for Soft stretch jeans and a knitted sleeveless vest
Ankle boots and my trusty leather biker jacket

A leather jacket if you find one you adore, will last for years, they can be dressed up or down, go with literally everything and never go out of style

Yes finding a pair of jeans you not only love but that love you back is a mission but again once you find them thats a match made in denim clad heaven.

I love me some black ankle boots, flat or heeled they are a no brainer.

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder

 

 

HOURGLASS – Ambient Lighting Powder in Luminous Light

Hello to the 1st Hourglass product I’ve ever owned. My am I impressed with this. I am actually not a huge fan of powders as my skin is dry but there are so many great reviews about this product I had to give it a try.

I chose the shade Luminous Light as I felt the pink slightly shimmery effect would suit my skin tone best.
There are a wide range of shades to choose from and they all give a different finish to the skin so I highly recommend going into MECCA, Space.NK or Sephora to give these a swatch.
I applied my powder with the Hourglass Ambient Lighting brush all over my face and the finish this gave was amazing.

There is no glitter or chunks in this powder, it is milled so fine it blurs fine lines and imperfections and looks like you have used a filter in real life! The glow this powder gives is similar to the L’oreal Luminous primer or The Balm Mary Lou-Maniser when you build it up

I would not say this was a makeup must have, but rather a luxury treat or Princess Product (aren’t we all Princesses!!!).

Brands such as sleek, Boujours, Rimmel and Revlon are now releasing similar products for a fraction of the price and I am eager to see how the budget brands versions compare

Have you tried any of Hourglass range and how did you find them?

Have a great day and thanks for reading
