Am I the only one who's obsessed with nude lipsticks? I have sooo many, and today I am sharing my top and most used ones with you.
NYX cosmetics have only recently made their way into England so I was like a kid at a candy store when shopping in Boots, Picadilly Circus. They had the biggest selection of products. I took a few items but these were the most exciting. The lipstick doesn't dry your lips even though it's matte. And the lipgloss is such a beautiful colour, looks great on!
So I obviously had to get the Kylie Lip Kit and see what the hype is about. Sadly the colour I ordered was too dark for me so I kept the lip liner and sold the lipstick. It was quite drying actually. My lips felt like they're in need of a whole tub of moisturiser lol! But I heard that different colours are different in texture and application so next on my list is Candy K.
Here are a few other favourites. Gerard cosmetics is a great one. I wore this for two months non stop. It's in the shade 'Serenity'. Clinique Chubby Stick in 'Curviest Caramel' is incredible. So moisturising and the colour is quite intense, which is what I like because they also have loads of colours that are not intense so you can hardly see it on the lips. The one that says Sephora is actually the Liquid Velvet by Ciate. I got mixed up when editing. But it's also a very good one. Probably one of the best liquid matte lipsticks I've ever tried.
What type of colours are you guys obsessed with? For example I know a girl who wears only red lipstick!? I only wear red once a year, if that!

Just checking in while packing my suitcase. These photos were taken by Ski at the House of Fraser press day. I just found this staircase and couldn't resist. If you look closely Im actually wearing sliders! I am off to the Carribean tomorrow morning. Dreading the flight, because it will take the whole day, but I'm too excited about the beach to care hehe. We are flying from Gatwick so I am very keen to find Nandos in the airport because that's the only Nandos that serves breakfast. I have to try it!!! I will try to update while on holiday if the wifi is good and I will pre-write some posts that will go live this week because I have so much to share with you guys! But you can follow my journey on Instagram and Snapchat like always - @gabrielegz.
Now I'm off to the nail salon and I'm a bit worried to get my pedicure because I am very ticklish lol!

Last week I had the chance to attend the Dell #WeLoveYourWork sessions to talk all things blogging. So from branding to influencer growth, to taxes and much more. The sessions were taking place in the Bourne&Hollingsworth buildings. It was one of the prettiest places I've been to in London. How do I not know places like this exist in my city? Anyway, sadly my final university deadline fell onto the two days of the sessions but I still managed to do my work throughout the night and make it to some of them. The event was in collaboration with Dell and their new laptop Dell XPS. I was actually really looking forward to trying their new laptop as I am a Mac user and I wanted to see and compare.
We had a session with Shini Park from http://www.parkandcube.com who tought us about building our own brand, standing out and making our blogs more interesting. We then took our XPS laptops and started doing some graphics lessons by first writing words over and over again to find the best ones on a piece of paper. Then scanned them in and that's where the laptops came in handy, we used them to put the words onto our photos. Unfortunately we couldn't use Photoshop but Shini introduced us to Pixlr which is just as good and is free online. I was surprised at how easy it was to use the XPS 15 laptop as I always get really frustrated while trying to use my boyfriends old laptop which is also Windows. The quality and graphics seemed to be really amazing, I was just overall really impressed which was surprising for me. I actually sat down to answer a few emails after the session on one of the laptops and found it so light and sleek.
It was so nice to meet other bloggers,see a few familiar faces and discuss the blogging world.

I don't know about you but I am off to the Caribbean next week so my holiday shopping has been getting out of hand. I realised I hate online shopping because scrolling through the pages makes me fall asleep. Literally I get so sleepy and don't want to shop anymore. So I've made your life easier and picked out some amazing pieces for you to treat yourself on, this payday. Enjoy! And let me know what you got! (Don't forget to click the arrow to see many more items!)

Whole outfit from Karl Lagerfeld. http://karl.com
In love with the shoes. In love with the sweatshirt dress, in love with the bag and the keychain.
Dusty pink is killing me right now and we have a lot of it at Karl so it's so hard to not get tempted to buy everything!!! This is a new collection called 'The Artist' so if you're in London soon check out our store or at least the windows, they're incredible! Also I am so sick of my hair I just don't know what to do with it at all. How to style it, how to wear it, how to cut it. Help!!!!???

Instead of studying me and Amanda decided to go out for lunch but that turned into drinking and dessert too! The dessert took 30mins to arrive after we had our burgers which made me so mad because then the grocery store closed and I couldn't get myself a new toothbrush! Lol. I still to this day find it weird that big grocery stores close at 4pm on Sundays. What the hell London??!!!!
I am supposed to being my uni work today but that's not happening yet. I am first gonna shoot all the clothes for depop and then off to Uni where me and Amanda will try to do something.
Hope you're having a nice Sunday! :)

What a beautiful evening we had today in London! The sunset was so beautiful, it was one of those sunsets that makes you think and makes you happy to be alive. My boyfriend agreed to go on a one hour walk around the neighbourhood so I was very happy ( and I have been up on my feet since 8am lol!). I am super tired now but after work I enjoyed a beautiful and very instagramable event on a rooftop of a hotel in Soho. It was the Ham Yard Hotel and the event was for Palmers. They planned a Coconut Escape on the roof and everything from the drinks to the snacks was very 'coconuty'. The macarons were so delicious I just wanted to eat the whole box! haha. We were able to try and take home all of the coconut oil products and a yummy smelling candle! Everything smells incredible and I'm packing it all for my holiday on the beach!
