Much Loved from March

Hey guys! A quarter of the year has passed. Sorry, what?! Time flies by so quickly it's insane. Moving on, I just thought I'd do a post to share with you a random assortment of things I've been loving this month. I always thought it would be fun to rave about stuff I like unrestrictedly in a list format. So, enjoy & hope March was a good month for you :) 

   1.  Fangirl - Rainbow Rowell

Of course, I'm starting off with a book. I don't even know where to begin - I loved it so much I wish I hadn't read it so I could re-read it. After readThe Narrow Road to the Deep North, which was admittedly amazing, it was also hella depressing. Like, think of the deepest depression you know and dig deeper (as you would expect a book about POWs). Fangirl was a return into the YA realm and oh how I missed it. The main character is starting out university and socially awkward - which makes her totally relatable. I just fell completely in love with this book and marvelled at how it's both tense and lighthearted. Also, Levi is the ultimate book boyfriend oh my god. Don't get me started.

   2.  Too Faced Melted Lipsticks

If you're no stranger to the world of beauty, I can guarantee you've heard countless raves about these lipsticks. But you're gonna hear it (or read it) now from me, they are seriously the bees knees, the bomb dot com- whatever idiom floats your boat is what goes right now. They are 100% worth the hype, and if you've ever tried one - you know why. The pigmentation, application and colour range. are all on point - there is nothing more you could ask for from a lip product.

   3. Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara

I know, I know another Too Faced product, I'm a self-acclaimed addict. Nevertheless, this was my first high-end mascara product and it did not disappoint. I'm surprised how much of a difference it actually made to my lashes. I might do a review on this product soon, so I'll rave further about it then.

   4.  Whiplash 

This list wouldn't be complete without a movie (or a few). But this month, Whiplash is simply the movie I cannot stop talking about. People must think I'm crazy because I must've asked at least 75% of the people I know if they've seen it - just so I can talk about it with someone new. Even if you're not a music person, the movie is amaaaazing. And if you are, it just gets better. Miles Teller's performance completely won me over - I no longer dislike you Miles, and I'm sorry I did.

      5. Mumford & Sons - Sigh No More Vinyl 

I hadn't listened to Mumford & Sons in agesss so when they came on Spotify the other day I was hit by a wave of nostalgia since I loved them so much throughout highschool. Naturally, I decided I had to have Sigh No More on vinyl seeing as I love every song on this album. I ordered it on JB Hi-Fi in the spur of the moment, so when it came I actually had forgotten about it but it sure made my day. I've been non-stop listening to it since then and the sound quality is amazing I'm in loveee.

That's all from me for March & I am beyond excited for April, especially since the weather has finally started getting colder. Also, I'm off to Melbourne this Saturday, so you'll definitely be reading about that soon! 

Love, Thy x

Book & Make-up Haul (aka The Unnecessary Expenditure of Money)

Hey everyone! Hope life is treating you well. Over the past few weeks, I have developed a dangerous addiction to online shopping. It most definitely has to do with my love for opening packages - it's like Christmas all year round! Anyway, I'd thought I'd share with you a few purchases I've acquired that I'm currently obsessing over. 

Finally got the Australis Contouring Kit after it's been sold out for the longest time

Stila packaging is to die for 

Almost too pretty to use 

This collection has the nicest colours omg I want them all 

L'Oreal products I picked up when Myer was having 40%

I highly recommend the Book Depository for cheap books! I also love how they send personalised bookmarks with every order.

I've read this years ago but never owned it so I grabbed my own copy - I love this version so much

A classic in YA - I distinctively remember the afternoon I read this in one sitting

Finally got my hands on 'IT'

It's as sassy, quirky and indie as you'd expect Alexa Chung to be

A backpack I bought for uni (I also got one in black) & some daily essentials 

I love how fast Luxola packages arrive!

*intense excitement*

Vegan Face Brush Set - these brushes are sooo soft I can't wait to use them

I swear the rate at which I buy makeup vastly exceeds the rate I use up products but, oh well. Girl can never have enough, right? (some mean self-justification there). That's all for the time being BUT I just made another huge book order on book depository that I'm very excited about - those will be arriving within 2 weeks or so so expect a similar post in the near future! Until then, thank you for reading ♡

Much love, Thy x.
