Princess winter decor & outfit inspiration! ♡ | a cosy and girly New Years…

 Good morning sugarplum fairies!~♪

For this winter, I also wanted to share a few pieces that I’ve put together for inspiration. Regardless of if, or when you are celebrating this festive season, it can be so exciting to organise what you will wear for colder weather, whilst staying cute and cosy! All the links for each item will be included if you feel like treating yourself, and i really hope you enjoy reading this post whilst I work on my Liz Lisa cupcake bunny print review…! ଘ(੭ˊᵕˋ)੭* ੈ✩‧₊˚

♡ blush princess coordinate ♡

For the first coordinate, I wanted to put together something glamorous, girly and fun♡ 

This blush princess coordinate reminds me of something you’d wear for a lovely evening out, especially with this breathtaking dress from Nana Jacqueline’s ‘Hopeless Romantic’ collection…!

‘Angel baby’ in pink

Featuring a soft faux fur collar and light pink satin bodycon silhouette, I can’t get over how beautiful this piece is! Whilst it looks quite simple at first, the off-shoulder sleeves and fitted shape are so elegant. This definitely is the dress for a glamorous winter evening, without getting too cold…! You can find more photos and the listing for this lovely dress here.

The second piece to this outfit is a gorgeous faux fur coat by new look! Since i saw the Jacquie fur trim wrap jacket, i have been looking for a cruelty free version, and this seems so perfect…! Not only do I love the neckline of this jacket (perfect for wearing with a delicate necklace) but the ribbon waist-tie is lovely, and just makes this piece so much more feminine and cute ꒰｡ › ·̮ ‹ ｡꒱ 

The faux fur details are also removable, which is great for versatility. I also can’t get over how soft and fluffy this looks, perfect for staying warm but stylish. I actually received this coat as an early Christmas present, and it feels like wearing a soft blanket! The ribbon waist tie also allows a variety of styles, depending on the occasion…!~♪ You can purchase this piece here ♡ 

And of course, I had to include this stunning 50’s inspired baby pink handbag! I’ve been searching for the pink colourway of this handbag for quite some time, and had almost given up until finally finding it on this site. I just know that many of the angels who read my blog would love something like this, it’s so beautiful! Perfect for himekaji, larme girl, vintage and any other feminine styles, i can see this piece being used for so many different coordinates in my wardrobe~  ꒰⑅ˊ͈ ˙̫ ˋ͈⑅꒱

My second thought upon seeing this bag (after ’I need it’ of course!) was that this is such a practical and fun design. The handbag comes with a removable cross-body strap for if your arm gets tired, and multiple pockets inside. It’s also quite big, so could easily fit a lot…! You can find this lovely piece here ♡

I decided to accessorise mine with this sweet Ladurée macaron charm…! I feel like the gold coloured hardware looks so pretty with this detailed keyring! 

One of my favourite finds for putting together this coordinate are these gorgeous kitten heels, which reminded me so much of the Dior slingback pumps…!~♪ These are available in pink, black and neutral shades, all of which are so cute with the little ribbon and polka dot details. 

Kitten heels have to be one of my favourite style of shoe, they just look so effortlessly elegant and stylish, whilst being so much easier to walk in then other styles…! If you don’t own a pair already, I’d really recommend them if like me you find stiletto heels a little challenging to walk in! The link for these pretty heels is here U・ᴥ・U

And no outfit would be complete without accessories, of course…! ꒰⑅ˊ͈ ˙̫ ˋ͈⑅꒱

The first pretty pink piece that i found is this stunning satin ribbon matching the gorgeous pink dress from Nana Jacqueline ♡

I adore the pretty crystal logo embellished across this ribbon so much…! This piece is so sweet for dressing up your hairstyle a little, and would look so cute with all the other sweet ribbon details of this coordinate…♡  this dreamy piece is available in multiple other colours here. 

And if you know me, you’ll also know that my favourite jewellery brand has to be Tiffany’s…! So I couldn’t resist including a few of their pieces here. The first are these stunning silver heart earrings, with the iconic ‘return to Tiffany’s’ logo. I love the little diamonds included in the centre, how romantic and sweet? They are just too elegant, especially with the matching necklace! You can find them here! ♪

The second Tiffany’s piece that I couldn’t resist including is their ‘return to Tiffany’s’ pendant! I’ve actually already talked about this piece on my blog here, but could not resist including it in this coordinate. 

♡ Sleepy bunny bedroom set ♡

The second coordinate and bedroom theme that i wanted to share is for staying cosy and comfy throughout winter…!~♪

The first adorable item is this beautiful pyjama set from Victoria’s Secret. Not only are their sleepwear items super comfy and warm, but they look so cute and stylish, which is perfect for if you’re spending the holidays with a special someone, or looking to feel glamorous for yourself♡

My favourite detail about these is the adorable little logo on the pocket, and iconic pink stripes…! These are available to purchase here ꒰｡ › ·̮ ‹ ｡꒱

I also had to include these beautiful striped fluffy pale pink slippers here too, also from vs! These are also so comfy, with a sweet matching ribbon bag for easy storage/travel~ ♡

I’m actually planning to use the bag from my pair for storing pyjamas, as it’s just too cute! The link for these beautiful slippers also can be found here.

This stunning candle set is also so perfect for the colder months, especially if you love soft floral scents for a cosy and softly lit room. Giselle’s shop sells so many different cute candles, my favourite little bunny candle made to look like Arthur was a gift from her…! She has also just released beautiful cocktail and princess inspired candles… ♪

I can’t wait until the new year to purchase some of these beautiful rose themed candles to display on my vanity, or desk…!♡ if you’re also thinking of treating yourself (or someone else, of course!) the link to this enchanting store is here. 

The sweetest little Arthur candle on my vanity, in the bottom left corner…!~♪

And if you’re also a fan of sweet candles, what could be cuter than a themed stand to display them on? This one is such a favourite of mine, and you can find it here. I know this design looks a little silly, but at the same time it’s also so cute? I was so happy to find another bunny related display stand to match my trinket dish (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)

This bunny stand is also pretty big, which is great for displaying perfumes, candles, figures, plushies and cosme.  I also think it would look so cute with a dome over the top!~♪

Something that I’ve been meaning to talk about (but never got round to it for years) is how cute the plushies are from bunniesbythebay…! I remember seeing this sweet little bun years ago in a shop during Easter time, and thinking to myself that he definitely needed a home ♡

 

Not only are their plushies so, so cute, they are also so soft to cuddle! Winter can be so cold, and having soft fluffy bunny plushies around makes it a little more bearable… I adore mine so much, and if you’re also interested in adopting this cutie, the link to do so is here! ꒰✩’ω`ૢ✩꒱

I also have been obsessed with finding cute pink themed sleepwear accessories like this eye mask…! I actually bought a silk eye mask secondhand from depop last year, and have been using it for quite some time. Silk is so great for keeping your skin soft and hydrated, so this is the perfect piece for a good nights sleep, without harming your skin in the process!

If you’re also interested in this pretty piece (and browsing the other colour variations) you can find it here!

And I couldn’t resist including one of my all time favourite designs, this gorgeous Royal Worcester Wrendale Designs Rabbit mug! The design is so adorable, and reminds me a little of my sweet angel Arthur. I have also found all the china from this company is so well made and matches with almost all my tableware! ♡

The link for this sweet design is here, although I'd also recommend viewing their other pieces as they are all too cute…!

And it couldn’t be an outfit post without at least a little mention of Liz Lisa…! I thought I'd include these sweet lace detail socks as they are so comfy, adorable and make any outfit even cuter than it was before. ꒰⑅ˊ͈ ˙̫ ˋ͈⑅꒱

Although their releases sell out quite quickly, I’ve included the link to Liz Lisa’s latest pink lace socks here…! ♡

Thank you so much for reading as always angels, and i hope this post was a little inspiring for cute coordinates for the New Years. I know its a little different from my usual content, but sometimes i love talking about other pieces or lifestyle items than my usual lizmelo content, although i can’t wait to talk about the latest release very soon~♪

Lots of love,

Too Faced Enchanted Forest Collection ♡ review & unboxing!

 'A whimsical winter wonderland full of enchanted woodland creatures, fairy tale romance, and sweet treats'

Good morning enchanted bunnies!

For today's blog post, I am so overjoyed to be sharing my thoughts and photos of the 'Enchanted Forest' palette, released for the Too Faced winter 2020 collection!♡

The minute this palette was released, I was so in love with the concept art, and sweet rabbit illustrations that accompanied it, bringing to mind the older Too Faced collections. It's been a while since I looked forward to the release of a Too Faced Palette (the last was around four years ago), so I felt so happy to purchase this release♡

The grey rabbit looks a little like my pet bunny Arthur, and just seems so adorable with their little ribbon and diamond necklace ꒰⑅ˊ͈ ˙̫ ˋ͈⑅꒱

I was a little surprised by how strong the 'Pecan Pie' scent was, but loved it! even when applying the shadows, the powder smells so sweet on your face.

There is a variety of colours in this palette! I love that they included two blushers, a highlighter and contour, especially in this gorgeous baby pink colour. The amount of glitter shades also made  me so happy, as I adore sparkly shadows♡

The highlighter especially is so beautiful! It reminds me of Too Faced's 'Candlelight Glow' as there is a soft focus to it, with warm toned sparkles. Paired with the beautiful blusher 'Nice List' this seems like such a perfect look for the holiday season. 

How beautiful are the shades 'Ballerina', 'Jingle Berry' and 'All is Bright'? I adore the variety in pink glitter shades, as well as the neutrals in 'Yule Log', 'Christmas Cookie' and 'Cinnamon Spice'. Whilst this palette seems to have quite a bright, pink look to it, the orange and brown toned colour would be so perfect for a more natural look.

When using the palette, I found myself reaching to 'lets Kringle' for a base, 'Yule Log' for my outer and inner eye corner, with a little of 'All is bright' on the centre, and a little of  'frosty' under my eyes for a sparkle! I also tried 'Lit up' highlighter with the 'Nice List' blusher. Overall, I really loved using the palette, and the look I managed to create!

The Enchanted Forest Palette also includes a lip gloss and mascara, adorned with beautiful festive motifs. The 'Better Than Sex' mascara is of course one of the best known Too Faced products, although it's not one of my favourites..! 

The snowflake design, matched with the pastel pink, is so pretty, but unfortunately I have not had much success with this mascara; it doesn't seem to make much of a difference to my lashes, and seems to just get clumpy... Despite that, I do love the pretty pink colour♡

I was however, so happy that this set includes the Too Faced 'Lip Injection' lip gloss in the festive exclusive shade 'Enchanted Pink'...

I adore the shade and smell of this gloss so much. It smells so sweet, but refreshing! The applicator is so soft and feels well made, and the tone of pink is a perfect berry shade. I was hesitant to try another 'Lip Injection' gloss, as the last one I used was one of my favourites, and I didn't want to be disappointed. However, the formula actually seems to have improved, as it is less sticky and the applicator is softer...! ꒰#’ω`#꒱੭

Another thing I absolutely adore about this gloss are the little details. The gold font on the front of the tube, and delicate little snowflakes across the lid, are so perfect. Each side features a different motif, from a sweet bunny, to scenic treetops, and a magical gnome!꒰´꒳`꒱

Thank you so much for reading lovelies! 

I'm wishing everyone a wonderful and safe new year,

♡ Peggy Porschen's Nutcracker winter collection 2020! ♡

Good morning Sugarplum fairies♡

A couple days ago, I finished all my assignments for this year, and so decided to celebrate by visiting Peggy Porschen, one of my favourite cafes for winter time!꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖♡ Despite the cold weather and harsh wind, we still ended up having a lot of fun, and enjoying the gorgeous décor and treats Peggy's had to offer.♫

Upon arrival, my friends and I were so in love with the nutcracker themed entrance and wreath! I recently saw a gorgeous pink wreath outside Jenny Packham's London Flagship Boutique that was so perfect, but Peggy's wreath may be even more beautiful...

I also attempted to put together a Clara inspired outfit..! I had originally planned on wearing something to emulate The Sugarplum Fairy, but as it was so cold, my original dress choice wouldn't have been warm enough~ ꒰⑅ˊ͈ ˙̫ ˋ͈⑅꒱ I was however, more than happy to wear this Lodispotto flowery op which I just purchased!♡

Dress: Lodispotto, Ribbon: Lodispotto, Necklace: Ted Baker, Bracelet: Ted Baker, Bag: Samantha Vega, Charm: Ladureé, Boots: offbrand

How beautiful is this ornamental branch display, next to the gorgeous sugar cookies and gingerbread? The candy cane and Christmas tree treats are so perfect...

The other festive items include beautiful Sugar Plum Fairy and Jolly Gingerbread cupcakes, as well as the Baileys & chocolate cake!.⑅*♡ I had already decided that I wanted to try the Sugar Plum Fairy cupcake, however if I visit again whilst this menu is available, I'd love to try the Baileys & chocolate ꒰♡ˊ͈ ु꒳ ूˋ͈꒱

The cupcake I chose...! How beautiful is this baby pink box? 

Due to the current restrictions, Peggy's had to cancel their table bookings, and are currently only available for takeaway. ꒰⁎′̥̥̥ ⌑ ‵̥̥̥ ꒱ Despite this, I'm happy to have still tried out takeaway from Peggy's, as I would have never thought to do so before!

The 'Sugar Plum Fairy' cupcake is described as being 'spiced buttermilk, spiced plum jam and plum meringue buttercream with ballet sugar shoes, snowflakes and sugar pearls' ♡

Although I don't usually go for plum flavour items, I was excited to try this one, as I find fruit jams so delicious, and thought perhaps the plum flavour would be a nice change.

The buttercream icing certainly did taste like meringue, however I couldn't detect much plum in it~ the icing was light and fluffy, which was a lovely contrast to the slightly spiced gingerbread sponge, which I adored! The plum jam in the centre of the cupcake was absolutely delectable, and combined with the sponge was perfect ♡

My sweet friend Sian tried the 'Jolly Gingerbread' cupcake, which is described as 'gingerbread sponge and lemon cream cheese frosting, with a sugar gingerbread character, snowflake and chocolate pearl' ꒰´꒳`∗꒱ According to her, it was delicious! Although neither of us are gingerbread fans, we still found these festive cupcakes so tasty and cute.

Our trip to Peggy's was so lovely!♡ I had such a wonderful time wandering around the shops on our way there, taking cute photos and admiring the festive décor outside various hotels and restaurants. It's been difficult trying to get into the holiday spirit this year, but I'm so grateful to have beautiful cafes like this I can visit, even if its just for takeaway or to admire!

I'm wishing everyone a wonderful day, and hope that you're safe and well during these difficult times.
