Here’s a first shot at something that’ll (hopefully) be more
of a regular fixture on this blog. It’ll be one of the (few) times I let myself
write about makeup and clothes (though those won’t be the only things on here).
I follow too many of those anyway.
And, if you know me, you know I can talk about things like
that for ages, so…
It’s been a rough week. And with a rough week usually comes
dull-looking skin. I usually add a bit of this above my cheekbones, under the
arch of my brows, and down the centre of my nose. It just adds a little
something to how I look in the mornings.
You can get these at Asian grocers. I used to devour them by
the handful as a child, but haven’t picked them up until a few months ago. They
usually curb my late-afternoon spouts of hunger, but my best memory of them is
when Dan and I devoured through an entire (large) box while marathon-ing House of Cards.
My sister gave me hers, which she sewed herself. It’s been a
great staple for the summer (I usually pair it with a jean jacket and
muter-toned tank top. You can get the one above from ASOS, or just look up
instructions on how to put one together. It seems super easy (but don’t ask me –
it took me seven hours to put together my laptop case, breaking like 10 needles
in the process).
Yada yada yada Hollywood and superheroes. It’s really
convenient to dismiss the whole genre, but I actually did enjoy this movie. It
was fun and light and not as stupid as I thought it would be. Hooray for going
to the movies with low expectations? Also, Henry Cavill.
Until next week!
