What's your opinion on them? Think they are worth the money? You may be like me a couple of weeks ago, in thinking they are nice but not worth the price. Be careful it is very easy to be corrupted be these beauties!

Chanel Espadrilles
I have been liking the chanel espadrilles for quite some time now. However, just recently I have started obsessing over them! I never thought I would spend $800 + on a pair of designer shoes, but more recently I have been absolutely loving them! There is not a pair of shoes I want for the summer more, now I just need to attempt to get the money together if I want any chance of getting them.

Yves Saint Laurent Review
Being left alone for half an hour in the makeup section of Myer isn't always the best for the bank account, but it sure does help cheer a girl up. I had been wanting a YSL concealer and foundation for quite some time now and drooling as I walk past any shops that happened to sell their products. So when getting the Touche Éclat Radiant Touch and Le Teint Touche Éclat together provided a discount and a free sample of eye makeup remover, who could resist?
I recall the lady working in YSL call the Touche Éclat Radiant Touch magical, I didn't think much of it, just another marketing strategy. However, after purchasing this item I realise just how true her statement was. I have seen this baby work miracle and it should be every girls best friend, it hides lines like nothing I have every used before. Which proves helpful after pulling an all nighter in order to finish that last minute project. It leaves you looking fresh and nobody can ever tell how little sleep I have actually had. Most of all, the staying power is incredible there is nothing I hate more than makeup that doesn't last, I don't want to carry around my makeup bag twenty-four-seven! I'd definitely recommend it!
The Le Teint Touche Éclat foundation is also excellent, it makes the skin look radiant and gives it a great glow! It's very hydrating, so I would really recommend it for people with dry skin, but regardless of skin it is still a very good buy. Another advantage is that it gives me a bit of colour without looking fake as I am an immensely pale person!
I love both items and can see myself repurchasing these items over and over again as these are a great concealer and foundation to have in your makeup bag! If you were like me and are considering getting some I would go straight ahead and do that, even if you haven't considered buying anything from YSL as of yet, I think you should, even if you just go into a store and try it out!
As I got the two items together I got a free sample of eye makeup remover (Top Secrets Pro Remover) and I have already used it all up, It was incredible and I will be buying it in full size version when I go into a store that sells YSL.

Introduction and Guilt Presents
WELCOME!!!
This is my first EVER blogpost so please be nice! I will be posting fashion and beauty blogs with a few life style pieces in their as well. Fashion and beauty is what really makes me smile and my favourite time of the day is when I am posting on my fashion based tumblr. These days there are so many fashion and beauty bloggers and people to get inspiration from and my fashion sense is inspired by Danielle Bernstein, Eleanor Calder, Miranda Kerr and Photos I find on tumblr plus I add a little bit of me in there too ;) (there are others, but those are the people I can think of right now off the top of my head). I have only recently become interested in beauty, but it has been a very quick jump into it and the list of things I want to try out is continually growing! Before I start, thank you so much for viewing my blog it means the absolute world to me and if you could see the smile on my face when I have page views you would think I were a mad man (woman)!
Just last week my parentals left me at home to go to school in freezing cold South Gippsland (Australia) whilst they flew off to the ever so warm, cheep and relaxing Bali. Luckily my parents do have souls which saw them coming home with a few guilt presents.
Firstly I got a pair of striped Jordan skinny jeans from NastyGal, but originally from Motel Rocks. I literally just got them so I have not yet worn them, but I tried them on and the fabric is so comfortable I feel like I could just sleep in them which is a big thing to say about jeans as I like mine tight! It might help that they were slightly too big as I was torn between which size to get and got the bigger pair. (I highly recommend doing this is you need a confidence boost! haha It feels good when your jeans are slightly too big!) Over all I am super happy with them and make sure to look out for a ootd with them which I am sure is going to come up pretty soon.

Secondly, after what feels like an eternality of waiting I finally got the perfume 'Daisy" by Marc Jacobs and may I say it is definitely worth the wait! I wore it to school the very next day that I got it and was extremely happy to find the scent lasted all day, and don't even get me started on how it smells. It is amazing, definitely my favourite perfume I have ever had. *sprays perfume for the 100th time today* I just wish I could spray my computer and have all you lovely people be able to share this incredibly distractingly gorgeous smell.
Just look at the bottle though isn't just so beautiful?
Mum also got a set of three beachy/ summery type bracelets that I have been trying to find something similar to for ages! Now I just want to go to the beach with my surf board and try to look as surfy as I can before failing epically at attempting to stand up on my surf board, but hey at least I will look the part! You know what they say, fake it until you make it. I am actually pretty impressed that my mum picked out something that i liked in the nicest way possible but she is slightly challenged when it comes to fashion to put it nicely...
I really like how these complement each other.
There were a few other presents that mum put away for Christmas and my Birthday, but was to excited and had to show me first. I don't have any photos of them. So you will just have to stay tuned for another couple of months to find out what they are. ;)
Does anyone else have any perfumes they adore? I am thinking i might try and get Burberry body next... anyone have it and would you recommend it? Also if anyone has Daisy and is able to describe how it smells comment below, I am horrid at describing scents...
Hope you all enjoyed and thank you if you got up to here and are still reading because you all just made my day!
