I realised I was getting old when I was able to have a full conversation about home storage, without any embarrassment. It’s actually one of my favourite things, along with another S; Stationary. Storage boxes make me feel like my life is in order, something that’s very important when your life is erratic as mine. […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: R is for Reading
In the latest installment of my Lily Loves ABC, R is for reading. I love books, it’s also a very appropriate day for this post as March 3rd is World Book Day! I’ve been into books since I was a little kid, I have two parents that read A LOT, so I’ve inherited multiple collections […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: P is for Penguins.
I’ve been a fan of penguins since I was about five years old. I remember when I was in school and everyone had the same favourite animal, I wanted something unique. It was that point and for that reason that I decided to make the penguin my favourite animal. I remember getting really annoyed when […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: O is for O Thongthai.
O Thongthai is a very special jewellery brand created by Thai jewellery designer O Thongthai. ❤️❤️❤️ A photo posted by @othongthai on Oct 20, 2016 at 8:32pm PDT It’s one of the best brands for one of a kind jewellery, perfect when you want some statement earrings or a necklace to top off an all […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: N is for Notebooks.
I love notebooks in an unnatural way, there’s no real explanation besides the fact they make me feel like I can plan out the rest of my life in a matter of hours. Obviously that’s not possible, but my point is that they feel me with unparalleled focus to the point that I believe I […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: M is for Matte Lipstick.
This year I became totally obsessed with matte lipsticks, running through the entire NYX counter and scooping almost 20 different shades in just one month. I’ve always been a lipstick girl and matte shades are my favourite as I have oily skin and my face is always shiny. As a result, I like a non-shiny […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: L is for Animal Lighters
I can’t remember when I started collecting these but my animal lighter game is serious. It’s actually my most prized collection, despite the fact I own well over 50 pairs of shoes… I have over 30 animal lighters now. You could even say it’s my own miniature (flammable) zoo complete with dogs, cats, and my […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: K is for (Grace) Kelly.
Such a goddess. I swear they don’t make ‘em like Grace anymore. Most of Grace’s films I watched for the first time with my mum, which is why I have a nostalgic love for her. Besides being beautiful, she was a great actress and starred in many of Hitchcock’s films, including my favourites; Dial M […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: J is for Jumpsuits.
If like me you’re a lazy dresser, then jumpsuits are a major key. Word to Khaled. Jumpsuits can be dressed up or down pretty easily and are also the ideal one-shot kill outfit for festivals, provided you don’t have a weak bladder as taking them off can be long! Maintaining a collection of jumpsuits in […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: I is for Intimissimi.
Getting dressed is probably my favourite thing to do on a daily basis. Last summer, after a really bad break up I decided to re-up my life, making over every aspect of my personal life and career. One of those areas was my underwear drawer so I replaced my post-adolescent collection of badly fitting bras […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: H is for High Heels.
Don’t get me wrong, I love trainers and biker boots but I adore high heeled shoes. I’d wear them all the time if I didn’t have to actually walk anywhere. I’m not even that short, I’m 5’5.5″, the same height as Marilyn Monroe – and Pablo Escobar, who I also share a birthday with. I […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: G is for Gel Nails.
I can’t live with a chipped nail. It sounds dramatic but if you know me personally, you’ll 1) Know that I’m a drama queen and 2) Know that my nails are always taken care of. I may occasionally have no make-up on and messy hair, but not a day goes by without my nails looking […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: F is for Fur.
My love for fur is unparalleled. It runs so deep that my best friend Lauryn once said to me, “You should wear your pink fur,” and I replied, “Which one?” I tend to stick to faux fur and have never gone out of my way to intentionally wear a dead animal, but I do own […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: E is for Eye Make-Up.
There’s a joke amongst my friends that I don’t have eyes. I do have eyes, but they’re so small that they’re pretty non-existent. Personally I think my eyes are one of my best features and my friends are just eye haters, but I won’t lie that my eye make up is purposely tailored to make […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: D is for Documentaries.
For the latest instalment in my Lily Loves ABC, I thought I’d introduce a selection of my favourite entertainment with D is for Documentaries. If I’m going to watch a movie, my genre of choice is gangsta films. But outside of that field, I love watching documentaries. In particular, I like ones about creative people […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: C is for Crop Tops.
My love for crop tops extends all the way back to my childhood. Although I was lucky enough to be an eighties baby, I grew up in the nineties, making it impossible to avoid crop tops – no matter which Spice Girl you were. I still remember going to Woolworths (R.I.P.) around the age of […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: B is for Beauty Oil.
Hitting 25 scared the shit out of me but it forced me to explore the fun side of beauty – oil. I have oily skin so it seems strange to add more to my skin but the result is super soft skin and an anti-aging effect. Plus dousing myself in oil makes me feel a […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: A is for adidas originals.
On #adidastracksuitday, I’d like to take a moment to show my appreciation for adidas originals. My collection of trainers alone is pretty serious, but lately I’ve been collecting two-pieces so that I can wear head to toe adidas in tribute to Run DMC. Check out some photos of my favourite pieces including the Berlin Pack, […]
