Monthly Favourites: June

*insert typical comment of how quickly this year is going*

But seriously chums, Monday marks the last genuine week of Year 12 that i have, and I can honestly not believe how fast 2013 is going. My favourites of this month have been pretty straightforward, get up and go products that have sustained me on early school mornings and lasted me throughout the day, or kept me motivated.

Essie nail polish is To Buy or Not to Buy- this is a gorgeous pale pastel lilac, which is, for me, the ultimate girly Summer shade. I love the brush, the colour, the application- this ones definitely a two coat wonder. Highly recommend for light-medium skin tones, but it'd look gorgeous on all your beautiful people! £2.99 from Fragrance Direct

H&M Leopard's Head cami- I'm never usually one for skimpy vests, but this stole my heart. I saw it 3 times in H&M before I plucked up the courage to buy it- and it seemed like fate, the only one I could find in the entire store being in my size. I've been pairing it with midi skirts, shorts, high waisted jeans- pretty much everything and it looks (forgive the pun) fierce. £9.99 from H&M

Gum Argan Oil Shampoo- This, in conjunction with the Philip Kingsley Elasticizer has saved my hair. After becoming dry and straw-like, I worried I'd have to go the full chop in order to get my hair back to a state of glossy healthiness, but a few weeks of this has quite literally saved my locks, and I'm now even being complimented on how silky it is! £2.99 from Bargain Buys

Shu Umera Eyelash Curlers- I bought these months ago, on my birthday I believe, and I'm still adamant that I'll never go back to another eyelash curler.  Pricey they may be, but I've never seen a curl hold quite like this. £20 from Liberty (but you can buy them in other department stores or online)

Chloé L'eau De Chloe- This is my favourite Spring/ Summer perfume. I can't even explain why, it just mesmerises me and puts me in an automatically good mood when I wear it. If you like slightly sweet, light floral fragrances, check this out- I can almost guarantee you won't regret it! £61 for 100ml

Charlie Body Spray in Enchant- on the days I feel less like wearing L'eau De Chloe, i've been reaching for this. It's a sweet, almost heady, scent of 'wild apple, honeysuckle and cocunut'. In all honesty, it smells like none of those things, but it smells rather nice. £2.99 from Boots / Superdrug

Other favourites

Song- 'Little Talks' by Of Monsters and Men or 'Young & Beautiful' by Lana Del Rey

Food- Special K Cereal Bars

Blog- What Olivia Did

Film- Wedding Crashers (it's so so hilarious- go watch it asap!)

TV show- Game of Thrones - I've literally only just jumped on the GOT bandwagon, and ploughed my way through Series 1 & 2 in a few days. I then gave myself a break because I found myself caring more about what happened in the lives of the Starks, Targayens and Lannisters (*coughorder of favouritescough*) than my impending maths coursework that needed to be done
