I don't know about you guys but now that March is here I'm starting to get sooo excited for spring!
With all the beautiful spring/summer pieces starting to sneak their way in to the shops it's the perfect time to start buying for the season that is (hopefully) just around the corner!
The lovely team over at KoKo Couture were kind enough to contact me and with that sent me over the stunning Zoe Faux Suede Clutch to style up
First of all, I was so surprised at the size of the bag, it can literally fit everything in, including my camera without even looking bulky. Second of all is the quality of the bag, it's a gorgeous soft faux suede and the silver hard wear and detailing is stunning!
Today I styled the bag as a clutch, however it does come with a silver chain which you can easily attach if you want to style it as an over the shoulder or cross-body bag
I teamed it up with this blue striped shift from Next, a pair of Topshop Joni Jeans and my favourite Michael Kors Silver and Blue watch (which is actually now half price!)
I've worn this bag a few times now and I'm really impressed with it! The collection is available online now at the KoKo Couture website and they are also being stocked in Topshop so, keep your eyes pealed as the whole collection is totally gorgeous!
What are your favourite spring/summer items?

ColourPop Cosmetics was one of those brands I had been wanting to try for a long time! When they advertised that they were doing free international shipping (which is available for the rest of this year!) I couldn't help but treat myself to some of their products.
With there being sooo much to choose from I headed over to YouTube to see what people recommended and soon enough my basket was filled up.. it was all too easy! I ended up picking 4 of the Ultra Matte liquid lipsticks, 1 of the Lippie stix, 3 Super Shock Shadows, a Super Shock Sheen highlighter and an eyebrow pencil (which I forgot to photo..oops)
To start with, I love the packaging of the Ultra Matte Lips, it's so simple and I like that you can actually see the product
When I first swatched these I wasn't sure what to expect. Although they're hyped about A LOT across the beauty blogger realm, I was a little sceptic purely because of the price point which is just $6.00 each! But there is a very good reason why people have been shouting from the rooftops about these, because they really are amazing. The colour pay off is perfect, they do not go streaky and they do not budge - trust me, I literally had to scrub my arm with all sorts and it still left a mark!
From top to bottom we have
1. Time Square
2. Clueless
3. Viper
4. Baracuda
5. Lumiere
(Time Square, Viper and Baracuda actually came as a set and cost only $15.00!)
Another great thing about the Ultra Matte Lips is that they aren't too drying and they don't crumble or transfer at all. Basically they are an all around great product and I think I need more..
Next is the Lippie Stix pen, you can see in the picture above how amazing colour is, and this product is so creamy and easy to apply. The colour lasts well but it does transfer a little when eating/drinking, but that isn't something that bothers me, especially when the Lippie Stix sell for just $5.00!
Next we have the eyeshadows. Seeing as I don't wear eyeshadow that often (it's definitely something I need to practice!) I went for some safe colours - ones that I figured would make me look less like I'd been punched in the face
Again the colour pay off is incredible with these little beauties, the texture is so creamy and they're really easy to work with as they blend like a dream!
From top to bottom is
1. LaLa
2. Sequin
3. On The Rocks
Again these eyeshadows are just $5.00 each but you can also buy them in sets (and there are some really amazing ones!)
The same can be said for the highlight. I went for something with a gold undertone as I didn't have one like this yet, and I'm definitely glad that I did. This one is called Butterfly Beach, it's quite subtle as it isn't filled with glitter so it's definitely something that you can wear day to day but you can also build it up by adding a powder highlight over the top!
Finally I tried out the eyebrow pencil in the shade Taupe. It's a retractable pencil with a spoolie at the other end which is always a winner! I picked this up for when I'm at work - I love my ABH Dipbrow Pomade but it's a little much for work!
Have you tried any products from ColourPop yet? I think I might need to pick up a few more products, I've got my eyes on the Just Peachy Ultra Matte Lip set!
