My newest bag essentials…

Dolce & Gabbana sunglasses, Nars pure matte lipstick, Lancome shine lover lipstick in 218.

Gucci bag.

I have been thinking about doing a ‘what’s in my bag post’ for a while as a lot of my essentials have changed and I wanted another excuse to show off my new Gucci bag. You might have seen in my post from London where I explained how I’ve been dreaming about a new arm candy for over 6 months before this red beauty caught my eye (pun intended!). It’s surprisingly spacious and can fit everything you see in the pic, plus my purse.

So lets go though them…With strong AC in Dubai my hands have become veat dry and this Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Hand Cream has really helped to keep them soft. The card holder from Aspinal is actually a press gift and it’s one of a few pressies I use every day. I was never much of a round frame sunnies fan but the Dolce’s are a good size and don’t make me look like a fly or a mole, so thumbs up! I’ve been having something of love affair with the 90’s brown lip and the NARS Pure Matte Lipstick in Tonkin is such a great shade and has that velvet finish that was so popular in the naughties. I layer the Lancome Shine Love in 218 on top to give the look more depth. 

Finally we have my Kindle. Some of you might not know my I absolutely love reading! From heavy Russian literature to something sweet like Me Before You, I don’t think I’ve ever had a moment where I wasn’t devouring a book. I’ve been excited about Harry Potter and The Cursed Child but Im not sure if I want to read it before seeing the play in London this November…I probably won’t be able to resist! Some people say its a bit dorky to like Harry Potter at my age but The Philosophers Stone was the first book I could read in English when I moved to the UK so J.K Rowling’s work has a special place in my heart and I can’t wait to see the new movie! 

Thanks for stoppinh by and hope you all have a wonderful weekend! x
