Good morning, welcome back to a new vlog.
How are we all doing?
I'm excited for today.
It's actually mine and Ryan's anniversary today,
so we have a little date night planned.
I'm really looking forward to it.
We're basically recreating our first date,
which I thought would be really sweet
because we haven't actually been,
we've been back to the place
that we had our first date once,
but it was like literally a month ago
for a friend's birthday, not as like a date night.
So we are going to recreate our first date this evening,
which I just think is such a cute idea.
But until then, I have got a lot to get on with.
We've got a lot to chat through today.
Today's video is going to contain
a PayPal integrated partnership with Beauty Pie,
which I am so looking forward to.
What the, what is going on with the sun?
I've been, that's, I need to go put makeup on,
so let's reconvene and I will hopefully
not look like a ghost.
Also, these are my anniversary flowers.
They are so big.
Oh, they're so gorgeous.
I love the pinks, so stunning.
I actually have some peonies on the island
and I'm tempted to throw them in with this
and then just have one enormous bunch of flowers.
What do we think?
I think it could be cute.
Also, how great is this card?
If you know, you know.
What shall I wear today?
I might, I'm kind of tempted to go
for this like denim midi skirt,
which I got a little while back
and this is the perfect kind of weather to wear this.
I haven't really been able to wear it much.
I really wanted to wear it with like a t-shirt,
but I only have my Annina Bing one that's not in the wash.
I don't know, I don't think I want to wear gray.
I wanted to wear either white or black.
So, no, that's a no from me.
Ooh, actually, I think you might have seen this,
but that could actually work.
That could be cute.
I hate that she sits there,
but she's also so cute that I can't bear to move her.
But did I want your butt where I put my face?
No, no, I do not.
She's technically on Ryan's side though,
so we'll leave her there.
Anyway, I am dressed, getting dressed this morning.
A success.
I tried on one outfit and I have stayed wearing it.
That is something that is actually becoming
more of a frequent, frequent occurrence as well,
which nothing brings me more joy than that
after like the past decade of just looking
at my wardrobe every morning
and having no idea what to wear.
Have I finally cracked getting dressed at the age of 31?
Maybe, maybe.
Okay, so I've applied my SPF, which is also my primer.
I've been using the Beauty Pie Featherlight UVA
and UVB SPF 50.
Wow, I can't speak this morning.
This is, today is gonna be a great day for vlogging.
I can just tell already.
UVA and UVB SPF 50.
It is a sunscreen and primer in one.
It is lovely.
It gives like a lovely glow to the face
and preps my skin really well for makeup
whilst also giving me the coverage that I need
because of all of the skincare I use.
SPF 50 every day is a minimum requirement.
But anyway, this section of the video
is very kindly sponsored by Beauty Pie.
And I cannot tell you how happy I am about this
because I love Beauty Pie.
Since I tried their stuff a couple of months ago,
I have just absolutely fallen in love with the brand.
So for those of you that don't know,
what you do is you pay a membership fee
and you can pay monthly or you can pay yearly.
I will pop the different like membership situations
on the screen.
However, there is also a third option,
which is to use my code.
But basically what happens is you pay your membership fee
in whichever way works out best for you.
And then you have access to everything
on the Beauty Pie website at their members prices.
And what Beauty Pie aims to do is take off the markup
of what retailers would often put on top
of what the product costs to produce.
And as a member, you can shop products from them
that are up to almost 70% off, which is an incredible saving.
You can actually see when you're on the website,
they show you like the RRP
and then what it's actually gonna cost as a Beauty Pie member
and the saving is phenomenal.
Phenomenal.
And what is better is that the products
are actually like 10 out of 10.
And I will run you through my top five products
from Beauty Pie in a second.
Before we move on, you can use the code SUZYSENTME
to get the annual plus membership for 49 pounds a year
instead of 59 pounds a year.
So if you do wanna sign up, now is the time.
And let me tell you, I have got you covered
if you are not sure where to start.
So my top five, the first up has to be
the Beauty Pie Super Healthy Skin
Hot Oil Double Cleansing Balm.
I love this.
I use it literally every night at the moment.
It is one of those products where a little bit
goes a very, very long way.
Like if you are not a heavy makeup wearer,
you can literally use like the smallest amount.
This would last you forever.
I do use a little bit more because I do wear
quite a lot of eye makeup, but this annihilates it.
And I still don't have to use anywhere near as much
as I used to have to with my old cleansing balm.
So that is unreal.
It's lasting so well.
And for the price of me to convert to this,
it's actually going to save money
because my old cleansing balm,
I was just like going through so quickly
and it was costing a small fortune.
In the morning, this isn't part of the top five,
but just for reference, I don't use this.
I only use this at night because it's just one of those
products that is just so great for annihilating makeup.
Like I said, in the morning, I like to use this one.
This is the Beautypie Plantastic Apricot Butter
Cleansing Balm.
This smells incredible.
Oh my God.
It's so good.
It's just so nice and fruity.
I actually thought out of the two of them
that this was going to be my favourite
when I did my first ever Beautypie order.
If you haven't seen that, I will link it.
Because the smell of this was just unreal,
but I love the texture of this.
Like if I had to pick one, I would get this one.
However, this one for the smell.
And if you don't like a super like,
like soft buttery cleansing balm,
if you want something that's like got a little bit more
of a solid texture, this one is amazing.
But if you want something that's like super oily
and just going to like blitz the makeup off of your face,
this is it.
I have to point out,
this is not in order of favouritism, this top five,
because if it was, this would have been first
because this is my all time favourite candle.
Like this is limited edition.
So I actually really need to stock up.
I am going to do that actually before this video goes live
because if this disappears, I'll be so sad.
This is the Beautypie Hot Chocolate and Peppermint Candle.
And it's unreal.
It basically smells like a mint aero hot chocolate.
It's so good.
In my order of new bits, maybe the chocolate candle,
but this, I just need backups.
I just need backups forever and ever.
It's the best candle ever.
Beautypie, if you're watching this,
because I know you guys are going to be,
please make this permanent.
Nothing would make me happier.
And you can tell how amazing it is
because I am basically at the bottom.
I'm putting off burning it anymore until I get another one.
This has, I think it's 60 hours of burn time,
which is like a lot.
That is a lot of burn time.
So that shows how much I have been burning this.
And then we get to the final two in my top five.
The first up is the Beautypie Sheer Tinted Oil-Free SPF 20.
This is one of my favourite tinted moisturisers
that I have tried ever.
It gives the most incredible glow.
It also glides on when you apply it with fingers.
It's just wonderful.
I love it.
What shade have I got for reference?
It is the shade Light.
And it blends in to my skin like a dream,
gives it like a tiny bit of warmth,
but nothing that's too much,
nothing that's overly noticeable.
So I don't like scratch my makeup off my face
and leave like a mark where you can see
that my skin is a little bit fairer underneath.
Like it just melts into my skin so beautifully
and just gives the most insane glow.
It's so nice for summertime,
but I also just think in the winter
this would be wonderful as well
when my skin is looking like a little bit dull
and lacklustre and just needs a little bit of a pick-me-up.
This gives me like my 21-year-old skin.
Like it makes my skin look so, so lovely
and so healthy and so fresh.
Do bear with me, just applied a little bit of liner
because my lips have disappeared this morning.
And my final favourite from Beauty Pie
is the Super Cheek Cream Blush.
This is in the shade Bare Blush, beautiful.
I like to use the seamless foundation buffing brush
to blend it in and a little goes a long way.
It's so pigmented.
Let me show you.
It is, you can really build it.
And it lasts so, wow.
I'm gonna regret doing that.
I'm just literally using the excess
from my brush on my cheeks right now.
Like it is that pigmented.
So it will last a very long time product-wise,
but also on your skin, it lasts so beautifully.
There is another favourite cream blush of mine
that I have started using recently.
And this one is such a good dupe for it.
And this shade just, I think works so well on my skin tone.
It's really beautiful.
I also have another shade, which is more of a corally tone,
which I cannot wait to wear on holiday this summer.
I think I've finally got the knack
of like how to wear like corally pink blushes.
So super excited to wear that on a holiday.
But for everyday, Bare Blush has been my absolute go-to.
But I also am slightly more newly acquainted
with Astro Pink, I think it is.
Yeah, the Super Cheek in Astro Pink.
And it is such a pretty pink for the summertime.
This is Astro Pink.
This is Bare Blush.
But as you can see, Astro Pink has a lot more
like shimmer and glow to it.
It's definitely more on the warm side.
Whereas Bare Blush is definitely more of a,
I would say like a, it's not cool tone,
but it's like a solid neutral.
It's definitely more of a creamy finish
with literally no shimmer to it.
And as you can see, I'm looking very pink now.
Both are very pigmented.
It's fine, because we're going to add a lot of bronzer today
because that is my vibe right now, to a T.
Those are my top five, but I need to finish my makeup.
So we're going to crack on now.
I'm going to apply a little bit
of the Awesome Bronze Sunkissed Bronzing Cream.
And I'm using the brush that goes with it,
which is the, what are you called?
The Pro Bronze and Contour Brush.
And this is super pigmented, but it is gorgeous.
Got the shade Sunny Side.
I didn't want to go too dark.
And this just looked perfect.
And I think it is just bang on what I needed
for this time of year for just adding
a really nice little bit of contour,
but also like bronzy, summery glow.
I just know this is going to be such a staple
for me over the summer.
It's just so easy to like blend into the skin.
Just really, oh, look at, we just need to,
can we just zoom?
We just need to zoom and appreciate
how all of those cream makeup products
have blended together.
It's just so fresh, so natural.
These are going to be amazing for me in the summer.
I love how they all just melt together.
It looks so natural.
I can't really tell where the bronzer starts and ends
and where the blush starts and ends.
It's just all melted together so beautifully.
Just going in with the Beauty Pie Rapstar Tubing Mascara,
which lots of you will know has been
one of my favorite mascaras lately.
It just gives the most lovely like wispy lashes.
I mean, I don't know if it is right now.
I can't see, cause I'm just using the viewfinder
as my mirror.
It is a gorgeous mascara and it comes off so easily
because it's a tubing mascara.
And I love that so much about it.
I just find that, oh, I feel like I just got a bit
on my eyelid.
I just find that they are much better
for your overall lash health.
And since I started using tubing mascaras,
my lashes have definitely always been consistently
fuller and thicker.
So would highly, highly recommend.
They also, Beauty Pie also do so many mascaras
and the price point is really good.
So I am going to crack on with my day
cause I have so much editing to get on with.
It's actually not even funny.
And we've got date night and everything.
So I'm just going to finish off the rest of my makeup
and I will be back with you very shortly.
If you want to pick up anything from Beauty Pie,
don't forget to use my code SusieSentMe
so that you can get your annual plus membership
for 49 pounds.
Let's fast forward time and I will show you
my outfit of the day.
This is today's little outfit of the day.
We've got Givenchy.
I think these are old Givenchy sunglasses.
Etsy earrings.
My necklace is from Edge of Ember.
I think it's Victoria's Gaia collection.
My rings are from Ashrita Miyu.
I've got an Ashrita Miyu little chain on my thumb
with a mango bead ring.
And then my top is also from Mango.
It's like this cool ribbed knit,
kind of towel-y material.
And my skirt is from Hush.
My belt is super old.
I think it might be like a really old one from ASOS.
I've literally had this for so many years now,
but I just love it because it's plain
and just goes with any outfit so, so easily.
And then I have got my white Zara quilted sliders,
which you just can't find anything like that
on the high street anymore.
The only pair of shoes I can find that are like it
are the actual real Bottega ones.
And these are so beaten up.
So I may have bought the real deal,
but in all fairness, these have lasted me so well.
I actually have had them since 2018
and I wear them like daily, every summer
and I haven't truly ruined them.
So I feel like I can be trusted with the real version.
So I have upgraded just because I really do love them.
And I just think they just go so well with my wardrobe.
I got them before Bottega even started
making a set like these.
I think these were meant to be Zara's
nod to like a Chanel shoe.
And it just so happened that then Bottega
started producing something like exactly the same.
So I did get very lucky with these.
I have loved them for so long.
So I'm very excited for my fresh pair to arrive.
I went for the exact same colour,
like a bright white, they do do a cream,
but I just know I love these
and they work so well in my wardrobe.
So yeah, it's been a spinny morning,
but I am looking forward to them arriving
probably next week.
Hair today is just leftover waves.
So very happy with today's little outfit,
with today's makeup situ.
It's very light, very fresh, very summery.
It feels perfect for like the weather today.
So I'm gonna crack on with the day
and I will check in with you a little bit later
and hopefully take you along on our date night.
Oh my God, I have just had a little Asha Damu delivery.
Oh my gosh, these are so cute.
So I have got some new rings,
starting off with this green one.
So it's like that wavy style
that I have been loving recently, as you will have seen.
I have a few, well, a couple of these.
Oh, that's so nice.
I wanna do like a green nail now
so that I can like do some green jewellery styling
on my hands and like have it all tie in together.
Ooh, love, love that.
A little bit big, so maybe that will go.
Oh, my index finger, yeah, perfect.
Actually, this hand, it will be, yeah.
This hand's like ever so slightly bigger,
so that's perfect and it'll probably work, yeah,
well on the middle finger.
I'm obsessed with that blush combo.
So, so nice for this time of year.
Ooh, we have a new pinky ring.
So this is like a little, what do they call them?
Like a solitaire?
No, signet?
I can't remember.
This is so sweet.
I might actually get this engraved with something.
I think that could be cute.
Finally, another wavy ring
in like a lovely mint green.
Oh, they're so cute together.
Love that.
And I think with my, I have a sparkly one as well.
They would layer really nicely together.
Thank you very much to Astrid and Miyu
for sending those over to me.
Such a lovely little Friday treat.
Quick little outfit of the evening for our date night.
I swear to God, my face does match my body.
It's just coming off a bit weird on camera.
Anyway, mango earrings, same necklace as this morning.
This top is an old one from ASOS.
I've got Holland Cooper jeans on,
Stuart Wiseman boots,
because although it's super gorgeous weather today,
I know it's going to be freezing in a little while
and it's super windy.
So I've gone for like,
this is kind of like a almost wintry outfit, but not quite.
And then my YSL bag, Astrid and Miyu rings.
So I've got the new ones on as well.
And then my YSL sunnies because the days are long now.
So I get to go out on a date night with sunglasses on.
I love this.
This is girls.
Okay, let's go.
♪♪♪
Good morning, everybody.
Please ignore my crazy hair that I've got going on.
I'm trying to get a little bit of volume
at the top of my head.
So today I am not feeling great.
I actually have, I'm due born and I have hay fever.
So we're just dealing with a lot of things
going on right now.
And I wouldn't normally vlog on this week of the month.
I normally just like take a step back.
However, I actually have two days in London this week.
Normally it's just a work from home week,
but I thought I'd bring you along with me
because I'm really looking forward to it.
I'm looking forward to seeing the girls.
We've got a product launch for Larry King today.
He's got some new hair products launching.
So I'm very excited to go along and hear about that.
And then I'm going to see where the day takes me.
There may be shopping.
So I'm going to apply this very, very quickly,
get my makeup finished,
and then we're going to make our way to London.
I feel like I have a lot less time this morning
than I originally thought I did.
So I'm going to get some makeup on my face
and then we are going to head off.
Honestly, don't know what I'm going to wear.
I've just thrown this t-shirt on.
I feel like it's a, I feel gross.
So I'm going to just wear a t-shirt and jeans kind of day.
Normally for a work thing,
I would make a bit more of an effort,
but I don't know.
I'm just really like not feeling
the super, super dressed up vibes today.
So we'll see.
Look who I found looking so cute.
This is, where is this from?
I love this.
Sorry, what, what was that?
Honestly.
Oh my gosh.
That's so cool.
She's in her cool girl era.
Truly, truly.
Should we go in?
Well cute.
My date, the date.
I'm so excited to see you.
I know, same.
We're going shopping.
I am actually so excited.
I'm excited for you to shop.
Yeah.
I'm going to try and enable you as well,
but we'll see, we'll see.
We'll see where we end up.
Shop.
What did you buy?
Can we get the scoop?
Oh my God.
Okay, I need to see this.
I need the preview before the peeps.
She's giving me the inside scoop.
Amelia is taking a trip down memory lane.
I will.
This is also when I had no furniture.
I got told off so much for the pouch.
No, I still have that.
It's just not being worn,
but I still have it.
Oh my God.
The one where I was like, being.
I just realised it was going to be me.
I don't know.
Look at her hair.
I know, it's so bouncy, isn't it?
Honestly, my girls are so amazing and supportive.
They came all this way for this.
Look at the face of this hair oil.
Let me show you.
My favourite picture.
Well, this is one of my favourites.
This is such a cool photo.
I like that one.
I'm obsessed.
It's like, this is totally not me.
It looks so different.
And then, my favourite one is.
And they've actually prepared it for me.
Oh, I like that.
It's got to do with the photo.
It's so nice.
I can't wait to get this home and try it.
It's a rosemary oil hair oil.
Jojoba oil, argan oil, and squalene.
Sounds unreal.
Apparently it's really good for hair growth.
One of the girls has been using it on one singular eyebrow
and apparently it's her new favourite eyebrow.
So, I'm buzzing to try this.
I need a new favourite eyebrow.
We are on my favourite street for all of the fancy shops.
This is my favourite.
I just feel like everyone's customer service
on this street is like A-star.
Yeah, like Jimmy Choo on this street is my favourite.
We're heading to Chanel because your girl fancies some shoes.
Okay.
This is the ex-boyfriend hangout.
It's on me.
Oh my God.
It'll make a great TikTok.
We are heading to Chanel.
I think I might have said this earlier this morning,
but I'm on the hunt for some flats
or like the heeled slingbacks.
Do we want a particular colour
or is it like a neutral?
I love your pink ones though.
I tried those on the other weekend.
Did you?
They were unreal.
Is it?
Yeah, it's just right there.
These.
Basic but so cute.
Let's see, Suze.
Oh my God, they look so good on you.
This outfit with the jeans, yes.
Oh my God, I'm dying.
Oh my God, it happened.
It happened.
She did it.
Close your eyes and just pay the bill.
Move on.
Save your life.
You did it.
I'm thinking it's gone.
Rip the band-aid, let's go.
I've got the goods.
Hello.
You are so cute.
Do you need to go outside?
Should we go outside?
Come on.
Off you go.
What are you doing?
Not me and Ryan's giant Birkenstocks.
Oh my God, my little climbing bean is really climbing.
This is actually insane.
It was to here the other day
and I just, as it started growing, looped it around here
and now it's just fully attached itself.
That is so mad.
I love that.
That's so cool.
Plants are just cool.
I'm such a dork but plants really are just so cool.
Good evening, everybody.
I am home.
I have to say the start of today was a real struggle.
You might be able to tell by the fact
I barely said two words to you this morning.
I was in the worst funk.
I've been in a funk for like maybe four days now
and it's really been frustrating me
because wow, I look like an egg.
It's been really frustrating me
because the past like three weeks of my life,
everyone has been like,
you are like the happiest I've ever seen you,
the most zen,
like things over the past couple of months
have just been great
and I just feel so content and so grateful
for everything I have
and yeah, then over the weekend,
I just started to feel really, really crappy for no reason
and it was really frustrating me
because there is no reason for it.
I couldn't put my finger on anything
and I then felt even more frustrated
because I was going to Larry King's event today
and Victoria is the like face of the campaign
for his new hair roll,
which looks so good by the way
and I just was so like,
I felt sad that I was sad
because I was just like,
oh my God, I just wanna go along and enjoy today
and like feel the good vibes
and I have to say my friend's commitments,
commitment, not commitments,
commitment to upping the vibes is unmatched.
I absolutely love them,
like I just couldn't do life without them,
both Victoria and Amelia were just so,
I feel like they just embrace you
and like they are just like,
whatever it takes to get this bitch to be happy.
I really do love them so much,
just feeling very appreciative
and it's just kind of brought me back
to that place of gratitude
that I have just been in for like a solid month,
love them so much for that.
But I'll show you what I picked up,
fully like styled up in and out,
but it's not like super,
well, it's gonna be basic,
but not like this basic,
tomorrow, moisturiser is going on
and now it is time to make some pasta
because although my salad at lunch was delicious,
it was so good,
like a tofu kind of Asian style salad,
it was unreal.
Although it was so good,
it's been a while and I am now very hungry again,
so let's go and do what I do best
or one of the things I do best,
which is make pasta.
This Dior logo print.
Good morning, everybody.
I just sat down to film,
wondered why I looked so puffy
and realised that I had not contoured my face.
If I start vlogging before 10 a.m.,
that is an essential,
it's amazing what a couple of hours
of being awake does to your face.
So I'm sitting in my bedroom,
I originally sat down in my kitchen to chat to you,
but it's so sunny today
and I've never sat down to vlog in my kitchen so early
that I didn't realise that on a sunny day,
it just beams on through the window right where I sit.
So that was a no go.
So we are going to be in the bedroom again,
which I didn't want to do
because number one, it means I have to actually tidy,
but also I hate when we sit in the same spot
throughout the vlog,
but the sun is doing its thing
and I'm just not gonna complain about it
because I love that.
I'm actually warm today, like warm.
This is, it's a very alien feeling.
I need to powder again and I literally just did it.
I think summer is on its way
and bear with me whilst I adjust slightly,
but can't complain because winter truly sucks.
It is just not my idea of a good time.
I really struggle with winter styling.
It makes me sad.
Like it's just not vibes.
I'll even take the hay fever at this point.
Also, this is a mess.
I tried to look presentable this morning.
It's just, I am getting my hair done
literally in like an hour and it is so very needed.
It is officially hair wash day
and I'm trying to make it look like it's not hair wash day,
but it is hair wash day.
Okay, I think we're there.
Wonderful.
Okay, we're going to unbox my new shoes together.
I've been wearing a lot more flats recently
and I just wanted something super timeless
that I could wear with my Holland Cooper jeans,
which I literally just wear all the time.
I've cut them to length now
and it is like, they were raw hem anyway.
So I was like, why not just cut them?
Why keep like folding the hems and stuff up?
And honestly, it's made the biggest difference.
Like I actually look like a normal height human being
and I've been wearing a lot of flats with them
and I just wanted like a really lovely, really simple,
really elegant pair of flats.
I've been thinking over these for a while.
I actually wasn't convinced
that I'd be able to even get my hands on these
because I feel like everyone is loving
the Chanel flats at the moment,
but it's just the most special thing.
I feel like I should film a TikTok on the unboxing of this,
but you guys are just going to get it first
because I actually just,
I don't care enough to do the TikToks right now.
I'm going to put these on with this outfit today.
I feel like these should just be able to go with any outfit
in my wardrobe that I have right now.
Oh my God, I'm real, I'm real.
Got the little CC on the heel, that's so cute.
The leather is so soft.
I'm really hoping like I have no issues with these shoes.
Did get these in a size four.
So I am a really awkward shoe size.
I'm a four and a half.
One of the, I would say one of my feet
is just under a four and a half, closer to a four.
And one of them is just over, so closer to a five.
So I normally get a five.
However, with these, I got the four
because I just had so much room on the back of the heel.
When I put the five on, so much room.
Put the four and a half on and it was better.
Put the four on and it just looked like the perfect fit.
And these slingbacks are like elasticated
and it's quite a good stretchy elastic.
So I think this is gonna be perfect.
So we'll see, cross your fingers for me,
but they are just the most gorgeous shoe.
Like so simple, super timeless.
And I do actually think these are very, very versatile.
They're almost like barely there shoes.
I think I will get a lot of wear out of these.
And I love this colorway as well
because the nude is very like elongating.
And as you'll know, I'm very vertically challenged
and anything I can do to elongate the leg
is very important to me.
The heel diversions of these with like a big heel
actually made my feet look so short.
It was not a good look.
And in my feet looking shorter, it made me look shorter.
Like that's why a pointed toe
is generally quite good for me.
It kind of just like gives the illusion
of more length to the leg.
And unfortunately I have very short legs
and then quite small-ish feet.
It's not great for me.
I originally thought that I would love the pair
with the heels.
Like I love the look of them
when they're just like on display.
My eye is always drawn to them, but actually on,
I was like, this is a no.
But other than that,
I don't feel like there's too much more to say.
I wanna keep this quite short and concise.
She says, the timestamp says 15 minutes.
So yeah, let's go and try these on with today's outfit
and I can show you today's outfit because it's cute.
I think I'm gonna be able,
I wasn't sure if I was gonna be able to wear this outfit
out to the hairdressers, but it's actually so warm.
I think this is like an all day outfit.
I thought I might need to change into trousers,
but actually this is like the first shorts weathered day
this year.
What a time to be alive.
But yeah, this is how the shoes look.
Just super cute, discreet, very, very chic.
Perfect for me in my retirement era
of just not faffing with fashion anymore
and just wearing what feels really easy
and good for my body and just very, very simple.
That is the vibe now.
And these are just one of the best pairs of shoes
that I could add to my spring summer wardrobe for that.
Let me tell you when I have to do like an 8 a.m.
nail appointment, I am no longer interested
in wearing something super trendy
or taking like 45 minutes just to pick an outfit
and style it all up.
I just wanna wear really simple things now.
And yeah, these are going to be an absolute staple.
She is cute.
She is sliving.
She is in her retirement era.
As for the rest of my outfit,
I am wearing a black waistcoat,
which I believe is from PLT last summer.
And I just love it.
I love the fact that it's like an open back.
It just, I think this kind of halter neck style
and the open back looks really nice.
I don't know why, I just,
I think a more slim shoulder looks a lot better on me
when I wear waistcoats that come out to my shoulder.
It just doesn't always look its best.
This is a very like feminine cut.
And I think that kind of suits my body shape quite nicely.
And then I've got a pair of silk shorts from Lily Silk,
which I also got, was it last summer?
Last autumn.
And I just knew they'd be a really gorgeous summer staple.
Okay, I've changed my shoes and grabbed a cardigan
just in case it gets cold on my walk back.
It's quite a long walk, but let's go get my hair done.
Just walking along my favorite street near my hairdresser.
It's so cute.
There's a little church coming up.
There's honestly some of the most gorgeous houses.
I'm currently trying to persuade my mum and dad
that they want to live here.
Like this house, it has a full thatched roof.
It's crazy.
And this one too, wild.
So I've made it and we're just going
for a little root touch up to eliminate the greys.
And then not much else is going on.
We're just going to have a little trim
and leave it the way it is
because it's lightened up really nicely,
but still looks like very much brunette.
It's a really nice like brunette-y blonde on the end.
We also have coffees on the way.
I'm so excited.
Hair is done.
Got a lovely summer blonde going on.
Good morning, everybody.
It has been a while since we have last seen each other.
It is the weekend and I am a little bit hungover.
I may have had too much tequila last night,
but yeah, I thought I would show you my outfit of the day.
It is a gorgeous day today.
We're actually about to head out, run some errands.
By the way, please ignore my kitchen.
It's a mess.
It's upsetting me right now,
but I don't have the energy to deal with it.
We are just about to go and see my friend Kate.
Just pop in and see her for a coffee.
She recently moved to Brighton from Glasgow,
which was just like the best thing
that has happened to me so far this year.
I'm over the moon,
but I very rarely actually vlog when I'm with her.
So I don't know if there'll be anything to show you.
Whenever my friends have babies,
I just, the vlogging camera never comes out around them.
But anyway, we are going to see her this morning
and run some errands.
So I thought I would bring you along with us where possible.
And I would also show you my outfit,
which is kind of cute today.
I really like it.
It's just the most gorgeous day.
So I've gone for something nice and summery.
We have my Givenchy sunglasses
and then my mango spiral hoop earrings,
which I'm just in love with at the moment.
We have my edge of ember necklace,
a reformation top,
which I've just tucked slightly at the side into the skirt,
which is like a long maxi skirt.
It's kind of low rise,
but I think the two pair quite nicely together.
This is it untucked, which is also nice,
but I just kind of prefer it.
It just gives it like a little bit of a relaxed feel.
I don't know.
I like it.
And then my Zara sliders and my YSL bag.
There's probably a better bag that goes with this,
but I do not have the mental capacity
to be thinking about my outfit any more than I already have.
So that is what we are working with today.
And as for my makeup,
I've just gone super light and fresh with it
because I just really needed the extra glow today.
There is so much of the Victoria Beckham highlighter
on my cheeks to just like add some extra juice.
That highlighter, whilst being very, very, very spinny
is really, truly wonderful.
It just makes your face look so juicy.
I have it on my forehead as well
with a little bit of bronzer, blush, mascara, brows,
a little bit of lip colour.
No base, just SPF on underneath that.
So yeah, just a lot of cheek products going on on the skin,
keeping it very light and fresh.
Perfect for a very summery day.
So we are home.
I had a lovely afternoon.
We saw Kate, went and did a food shop,
went to one of our favourite cafes on the beach,
got a little coffee, a little sausage roll.
And I've just been pottering about in the garden.
And as you will have noticed, I have changed my jumper.
I've got changed into this jumper
because I'm about to get snuggled up
and do a fair bit of editing.
I have so much to get done this weekend
before everyone goes back to work on Tuesday.
I need to crack on,
but I thought I would quickly show you
a couple of bits that I picked up earlier
and then also a couple of bits from my Beauty Pie order
that I've been really liking.
So when I was in Tesco's, I picked up two books.
Lots of you will know
if you've ever listened to my book recommendations before.
I love a J.P. Delaney book.
Love, love, love.
So it's the same author as The Girl Before
and Playing Nice,
which I loved both of those books so much.
I feel like there's another one as well
that I really thought that there were three
that were published.
Let's see.
Does it have the list?
Oh yeah, believe me.
Oh, and the, oh my God, yeah.
So I have read all of these.
They are all sensational.
If you need book recommendations,
this author, these four books, so good.
I'm hoping that this one is just as good.
And then I think I've also read
an Adele Parks book before and enjoyed it.
I've always like try and keep my favorite authors
like names in my head
so that when I'm in a book aisle,
I can just go for the authors that I know I like.
This one seems to be judging by the blurb on the back,
basically like you've raised a child
that kind of isn't yours,
which I always find the concept a little bit mad.
This author has also written a book.
Playing Nice is like a very similar concept.
So I'm interested to see how this one differs.
And as for my Beauty Pie order,
I've been using this cuticle oil and it's really lovely.
This is the Cuticle Therapy.
I actually don't know if it's an oil.
I just naturally call them a cuticle oil,
but yeah, this one is really lightly scented,
like a nice, I wanna say like florally fragrance,
but very nice and hydrating on the cuticles.
We also have this lipstick.
I will pop the shade of this in the info box
in case you want to know the shade name
because it's not on the bottom
because you basically get your lipstick shade
and then you get the case and you pop it in.
So my case doesn't have the name of the lipstick on it,
but I will pop it in the info box.
It's a really lovely, light, nudey colour.
I'm wearing that today.
I'm really enjoying that.
And then I have a new candle.
I briefly mentioned earlier in the vlog,
I love my mint hot chocolate one.
However, this is the candle
that was in my Beauty Pie order that arrived this week
and it smells incredible.
I haven't burnt it yet, but the smell is strong enough.
I already know that I love it.
This one is, as the name suggests, like pure chocolate,
whereas the mint hot chocolate one,
I definitely would say is a little more fresh.
So it depends on what kind of mood you're in,
whether you just want a very, very sweet smelling candle.
This one is very, very deep and rich.
Still gorgeous, but they're both very different.
So I don't know if I could rank them,
but I am going to enjoy burning this so, so much.
Good morning, everybody.
Good group, I love you today.
I slept for a million years last night.
I just got back from the South of France,
which I'm currently editing.
You will see very, very soon.
And I realized that this video,
I haven't done my skincare this morning.
I haven't even washed my face.
Like, honestly, why am I doing this?
I realized I hadn't ended today's vlog.
I am so sorry that it did not go live as we intended.
There was a slight roadblock with the footage
and there was a massive delay.
And I feel like I literally have just said
in like the last vlog,
videos twice a week, Monday and when, when did I say?
I don't even know when I said,
like Sunday and Wednesday.
And obviously it hasn't happened
and this vlog has been very delayed.
I am so sorry for that, but we are back.
We are back in business.
I'm actually just going to do one a week for this month.
I'm back to fully backtracking, I know,
just because things actually ended up being far busier
than I anticipated.
So I will see you again next Wednesday.
If you prefer Sunday, let me know.
I really don't mind whatever is best for you guys,
but yeah, I just wanted to come on and say goodbye
and let you know that there are vlogs coming.
Also, there is a what I wore in a week,
which I actually filmed before I filmed
and during the filming of this vlog.
Is it too late to post that?
Do we still want to see it?
Let me know.
Just let me know what you want to see.
But thank you so much for sticking with me
through these sparse times.
I love you all so much
and I'll see you guys again very, very soon.
Bye.
