Add Me On BBM

When it comes to colour combos, I've always thought that orange & purple are such an underrated duo. Think The Joker, Beyonce's iconic Versace dress in Crazy in Love and even The Graham Norton show (which I can only catch on BBC America now, sob).



You can imagine how thrilled I was when Glossier dropped their latest balm dotcom shade: BERRY!



As the name suggests, it leaves your lips with a berry tint and smells divine like the juicy filling of a Victoria sponge cake! *adds to basket* I've also been admiring their marketing strategies on the gram and their use of unconventional ways to promote the new addition such as offering a berry balm dotcom inspired compote recipe ~ how neat is that?! I used to make countless jars of jam every summer in Greece when visiting my grandmother and although it's been a minute, I'm temped to give it a whirl!




lol my friends used to joke that I could give Monica Geller a run for her $. All summer long everyone would post pix of them jet skiing, and then there's me with my beloved grandmother and jam.


Do you have a favourite balm dotcom flavour - I mean shade - ?

New Man On The Minnesota Vikings

What's better than a 15 min Lizzo jam session this fine morning? 



The answer is nothing!

Flowers For Zoë

I was thrilled this morning when I saw pix of Zoë Kravitz on the July cover of British Vogue. The colour clashing orange and hot pink always go hand in hand and scream summer. It's been a BIG month for Zoë as season 2 of Big Little Lies dropped - which she stars in along side Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman & Meryl Streep (!!!) - and rumour has it she married her beau, Karl Glusman. As you guys know, I have adored Zoë for time and was once lucky enough to see her band Lola Wolf at the Sebright Arms in London - it was her birthday and the crowd were electric!


 The issue hits newsstands this Friday, which just so happens to be the day we touch down in London. I have to say, I am loving the fresh direction Edward Enninful is taking British Vogue, each time a cover drops there's such a hype. I'm still dreaming of the day Meghan Markle will grace the cover, I live in hope!


Again - as a mega polka dot enthusiast, this look is giving me LIFE!
