Mirror, Mirror on the Wall ♡

Got to finally get some shots in with my friend today at The Bravern! I've been a bit shy about having someone take my photos. I usually just use my tripod and stay in the comfort of my home. It was a lot of fun to be able to get out there and use different backgrounds:)! Here are some of my favorite shots from today. I listed what I'm wearing at the end of this post <3



We ended up stopping by T'Latte on our way home. It was soo yummy! It was my first time going there, but I've heard a lot about how delicious that macarons are. Definitely recommend stopping by there if you have a chance!:)

Chocolate & Pistachio macarons



What I'm wearing:
Abercrombie and Fitch lace off shoulder floral blouse
TopShop spotted mini skirt
Ingni white bow purse


Thank you for reading !♡

❀Liz Lisa Mini Haul and Jill Stuart Jelly Eyeshadow❀

Hello everyone :)! This is my first post/mini review and I really hope you like it.

I placed a order with TokyoKawaiiLife.jp (Formerly LizLisa.jp) about two weeks ago for this baby blue, knit sweater with sheer sleeves(Can purchase here) that I've been wanting for some time. I was really happy to see it on sale so didn't hesitate to buy it.

New packaging for online purchases from Tokyo Kawaii Life

The quality of this sweater is great:)! I've always loved Liz Lisa product's quality and have always felt I've gotten my money's worth. I love the sheer sleeves and knit pattern which is what drew my attention to this sweater. The only thing that did surprise me though was that this was more of a crop sweater. I was expecting it to be a bit longer, but it ended around my naval so I'll probably pair it up with a high waisted skirt when I choose to wear it. Here is the link to the sweater(♡)

I also was really excited to see that they had some cosmetics on sale as well. I've heard a lot of amazing things about Liz Lisa blushes so went ahead and purchased it in pink(010). I was trying to find the link to add it on here, but sadly I think they sold out already :'(

The packaging is really cute!

It's very pigmented which I liked a lot about this product. I swept my finger lightly through it twice and managed to get a good amount of product out of it which I really like. It has a pretty good amount of shimmer which in my opinion is a nice touch. But, if you're looking for a more subtle blush that's not so shimmery, this might not be for you. It also has a light hint of rose fragrance to it. As far as the color, I really love this kind of pink! It's more on the pale side yet has that shimmery glow which is what I usually favor when it comes to blushes since my complexion is on the fair side.

I also went ahead and made a purchase from Amazon for a Jill Stuart Jelly Eyeshadow Pot in Coconut Milk. I've been wanting to try their products for awhile so was really excited to be able to get it :)!


Even though the name of the product has jelly in it, I didn't except it to be so jello like xD I'm not really used to using an eyeshadow like this so it took me a bit of time poking at it so I wouldn't scoop up too much product. It's really shimmery which is what I was looking for so I was very pleased with this product. It definitely draws attention to your eyes. It also stays put for the majority of my busy days. I haven't tried pairing it up with an eyeshadow primer and didn't really see the need to since I didn't see it crease. It has a great floral fragrance and the cute packaging is a definite plus! I can so now why so many bloggers rave about Jill Stuart cosmetics.

Thank you so much for reading my post/mini review! I hope you found it helpful:)!
