I love that I have a good fistful of male readers! I am also chuffed that plenty of you are feeling Hiro's style and so here I am about to blog about his new shoes!
Hiro's got some brand new shoes!
This detail mad one bought a pair of black low-cut Red Wing Oxfords in The Three Threads closing down sale (Shoreditch). He paid a sum that was better than half price. He is currently patting himself on his back for proving to himself that he is indeed a master of fortuitous bargains in sale season!
Hiro is very happy with his shoes because, he likes the colour, the quality stitching details, the firmness and thickness of the leather but most of all he is pleased with the price that he paid.
He is also very fond of that little overlapping tab on the heel. Not sure why, but is seems to make him nod his approval.
Oh and in case you are wondering, his socks are by Happy Socks.
I bought NARS' Barbarella to replace my MAC Jazzed as it melted in the summer heat.
Barbarella is my first NARS lipstick and a close colour match to Jazzed in the tube at least. In reality Jazzed is a far more pigmented coral/peach.
The first thing that I noticed about Barbarella is the lack of scent a big round of applause from me as I have never been fond of MAC's vanilla scent for their lipsticks.
Barbarella is a true peach sheer lipstick that really appeals to my love of this soft reticent colour. The formula is quite waxy without being and is moisturising and long lasting too. Although this is generally silky to apply, there are times when the application is more patchy. Beware if you have any dry bits on your lips for this will be highlighted X 10 with Barbarella.
Barbarella though a bit temperamental has become one of my daily favorites.
I bought this on in Liberty of London but you can also get in in SpaceNK and Selfridges. I usually go wherever the loyalty points are.
I felt rather chuffed with myself when a generous SpaceNK sales assistant gave me a good sized sample tube of the Jurlique Citrus Hand Cream to try out:
Jurlique is a brand that I hear many good things about and so I merrily added it to the contents of my handbag where it has been a a frequent companion ever since.
The citrus scent is not of a harsh quality and it lingers more towards a slightly candied lightly-does-it lemon fragrance that is refreshing and uplifting at the same time.
The Jurlique Citrus Hand Cream is a lighter and less greasier formula that those of L'Occitane so no greasy paw prints! This is very important to me as I am always working with paper or fabric or glass and unsightly marks drive me bananas!
This cream melts into the skin quickly and does a good job of smoothing my parched hands. The moisturising effect lasts about a couple of hours before my hands feel a bit dry again so rather frequent reapplications are a must.
I really do like this Jurlique number but, I am very glad that I got this free sample and I am still on the look out for my HG hand cream. Jurlique's hand creams are available in Jasmin, Rose and Lavender varieties and are about £33 for a big 125ml tube in SpaceNK which is quite a lot to spend on a hand cream without trying it out first. I would definitely advise others to pop into a store and slather your hands with it before buying online etc.
