My Perfume of the Moment

I'm not one for particularly strong smells at all, but when I do find a scent that I like I can't really get enough! In only probably the past 2 years, I seem to have collated a bit of a perfume collection and can't seem to stop buying more! However, every now and again I get one perfume which I wear everyday and at the moment that is the Ghost 'Eclipse' Eau De Toilette.

I discovered this a few months ago walking past a stand in Boots and fell in love with it! Something about it reminds me of a memory when I was younger for some reason, I can't work out what or why but it just smells familiar. 

It's not too strong and quite fresh so I can wear it in the day and not feel overpowered by it. It's quite fruity with notes including Sweet Bergamot, Lemon, Fresia and Musk. (To be quite honest I'm not sure what a lot of them are but I can vouch that they smell lovely together!) Personally I just find it to be nice and light and not at all sweet or too fruity.

I definitely recommend going and trying this out next time you're near a perfume section somewhere!

The Leather Jacket

For years now, a leather jacket has been a staple item for my wardrobe, especially in the Autumn and end of Winter. I'd worn the same one for a couple of years now, just a plain black style with silver zips and detailing from New Look. However, this year I fancied a change as mine was looking a bit worn down!

I'd done a bit of research online, trying to find the perfect style and a good 'petite' size as I don't like mine to be too long. I then stumbled across this one from Miss Selfridge and completely fell in love.

I love that there is so much faux fur around this season and I think this was mostly what drew me to this jacket. I also managed to get it in a petite version, which wasn't as tight on the arms as I thought it would be and still left some room for extra layers. I love the detailing on this as well, I think the gold makes it look a bit more expensive and looks a lot nicer than the silver zips. The fur is detachable too, which is great for when you want something really casual.

I'm definitely going to be wearing this non-stop until it gets too cold!
