Easy Interiors

I'm massively into interior design, so thought I'd show a few little, inexpensive touches you can add to your room. I tend to keep things monochrome and minimalist; enjoy!

Nude palettes: my top picks

As many know, I am a sucker for a nude palette and live by the rule that you can never have too many. So, I decided to post about my top 5. 

1.) NAKED - £38
I got my naked palette back in 2012 and it is definitely my most loved and most loved palette. It's looking a little worse for wear but I cannot emphasise enough how long lasting and pigmented the shades are; so easily blendable and so many different looks can be created with the 12 shades. 

2.) Soap and Glory's "lid stuff" - £10 

This palette looks similar to a Mac quad, but at just £10, is a steal. I've found the white to be perfect for the browbone, and I use the matte brown on my brows. Perfect if you've not got much room in your make up bag!

3.) "Natural Eyes" by Too Faced - £32 

Unfortunately I don't think this is available in the UK; I picked it up in Sephora in New York (Sephora do ship to the UK however, if you're interested). What I love about this palette is that it comes with a manual, so shows you exactly which colours to pick and where to put them in order to create different looks. I like that it's relatively small but still has an amazing range of colours. 

3.) "Eyes Uncovered" by Collection - £3.99

I have to say I was AMAZED when I saw this in boots - £3.99 for a palette which could be seen as a 'mini naked'! I admit I thought it was too good to be true and the actual eye shadows would be rubbish, but I was definitely mistaken. If you're on a budget, I'd honestly say it's just as good as Urban Decay!

5.) NAKED 3 - £38


And last but not least, naked 3. I think this palette really is beautiful, but I haven't found all that much use for it. It's all very pink toned, which doesn't suit me massively. However, as you can see, I fell in love with "dust" - a very similar colour to "silk teddy" in the too faced palette.

What are your favourite nude palettes?

Injecting a little colour into my wardrobe

As most people know, I rarely wear anything colourful. I tend to stick to black, white and grey; not only because I like the minimalistic look, but because it's practical.

However, as it's summer, I thought I should branch out a little. I found this A-line skirt on asos and fell in love. I thought a block piece would work well, because I can just pair it with a black or white top etc. I find A-line skirts to be flattering for my figure, and at just £20 it was a bit of a steal! It comes in tons of other colours so I think I might have to pick up a couple more. 

How do you inject a bit of colour into your outfits?

The Breakfast Club



Exciting news for Brighton locals - The Breakfast Club has now opened on Market Street. If like me brunching is your favourite hobby, you might have heard of this chain. The Breakfast Club have a few restaurants in London (Soho, Canary Wharf, Angel, Hoxton, Spitalfields, London Bridge and Battersea Rise), so of course expanding to Brighton was next on the list.
Whether you're looking to eat healthily, or indulge, the Breakfast Club is top of my recommendations.

Where do you like going for brunch?
