Winter Shoes | H+M, Doc Martens + Primark.

Hello!

Has everyone had an enjoyable weekend? I've been working away and tidying the house, but I relaxed a bit this evening which has been lovely.

Just wanted to do a quick post today as it's been a few days and I'm working a lot over the coming week. I've been aiming to do more fashion/clothing related posts as it's something I'm really interested in and I have a lot of clothes and shoes etc!
I want to share with you all the shoes I've been wearing the most over the past couple of months. The weather has been pretty gross here as you can imagine or perhaps you've experienced it too! Lots of rain, snow and general coldness. So my footwear has had to be able to cope with all that. Basic requirements include decent grip on the sole, they must be cosy (with room for extra sockage!) and black (as it goes with absolutely everything).
Here are my Top 3!

My newest pair of shoes, I got these about 3 weeks ago from H&M online for £29.99. I was going to post a link to the website but I can't find them on there any more! They are very chunky and 90s, which a lot of people may not like but I love them. Easy to walk in, fantastic grip, easy to get on and off, as well as decently priced!

Christmas Treat - Chanel Lipstick.

Every Christmas I like to buy myself a wee present, last year it was a pair of Jeffrey Campbell Litas (not such a wee present, I know) and this year it is a Chanel lipstick. I've been eyeing it up for a good few weeks. With a price tag of £25 I feel that I could only justify buying it as a gift to myself at this time of year. I also got 10% off in Debenhams, so it was £22.50.

I absolutely love the colour, and it's matte! It's from the Eclats Du Soir collection, and it's called Rouge Allure Velvet Lipstick in L'Impatient. The colour is a deep berry shade, which does look a bit daunting in the bullet but it's gorgeous on. I would say it's the perfect colour for winter! If you're unsure about the colour it's best to swatch it first. I was surprised when I swatched it, but I still loved it!

You can wear it on it's own or with a lip liner, I prefer to use a lip liner and fill in my lips first. This helps show off the colour as I feel that it's not as pigmented as it should be. You will see in the photographs and swatches what I mean. If you don't want an opaque lip it works well just patted on lightly as well.  Like I said it is pretty versatile and you can wear it a few different ways.
