#FNO

It's that time of year again! September is my favourite month of the year, (not just because it might be my birthday, but that helps.) but for fashion week which is fast approaching, and Vogue's Fashion Night Out in just two days time! Hurrah! For me, key places to check out this year have to be Liberty's with Jonathan Saunders and Roksanda Illincic making appearances and lots of in-store activities, and of course Bruton Street/New Bond Street for all the standalone designer stores.

Covent Garden is a must as well with the pop up Chanel beauty store! (Tip! Don't forget to look out for the pink Chanel London Cabs which will be offering free manicures in the new AW12 shades)

For the best information on where to go this Thursday in London, visit the FNO Facebook page which is regularly updating what will be happening.

DETAILS; HYDRA BEAUTY

New in my make-up regime is the Chanel Hydra Beauty Crème. I have tried so many moisturisers recently and hope this will be my last solution! I had previously been using the Clinique 3 step regime which just wasn't right for me. After cutting out the gel-wash and toner, I still found the moisturiser was too oily and sticky. So after much deliberation, (reading just about every publications beauty section for reviews and recommendations) I went for the latest in hydrating creams hoping it would be the right one for every day use. The new Hydra beauty comes in a serum, cream, and gel form; with intense hydration and advanced antioxidant protection.

 The hydration is what made it so appealing for my skin type; it's sometimes difficult to find moisturisers that give you that extra boost without the solution being very thick and sometimes sticky. I found this sits so well on dry skin, without feeling heavy. I have used Chanel's Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation for over a year now which has now been incorporated as part of the Hydra Beauty range, so the products definitely compliment each other when used together.

If you have more combination-oily skin I would recommend the Hydra Beauty Gel. It works in the same way as the cream but is much lighter in constancy, providing the same amount of hydration but not as thick as the cream which nourishes dry skin. The best part?  The hydra range incorporates extracts from the camellia flower which smells amazing; not the most important element but it is addictive!

IN RED

Quick outfit post before dinner tonight. I bought these red Leigh jeans from Topshop; they really are the best skinny jeans I have found. I have them in nearly every colour now just because the fit is so good, and best of all they are super comfy. First time wearing my new Zara sandals too, the shape is so simple that they pretty much go with anything! I had seen a similar pair in the Maje lookbook last summer and had been looking for something like them ever since.

Hope you're all having a good week and not letting this miserable weather get to you!
