The Summer Lovin’ Tag

 

The summer lovin' tag on mstantrum.com

Who doesn’t love tag posts …specially when the topic is so cool and questions are fun! Its such a nice way of getting to know about eachother ..do u remember getting your slam book filled by your friends and crushes while you were in your teens? Haha, tag posts reminds me of those times!

Thank you my darling #instasister Sal @ummbaby for tagging me to do this. I always enjoy Sal’s recommendations and absolutely loved what she is reaching for this Summer.

To me, summer means beaches and holidays (tell me I’m not alone here, haha 😀 )!!! Without blabbering much, let’s move to questions 🙂

  • Favorite Perfume

I don’t change my fragrance frequently but Calvin Klein ‘Secret Obsession’ has been my old favorite. This is floral and oriental in nature, described as a sultry infusion of exotic flowers and intoxicating woods to create a sensual, addictive fragrance.

Secret Obsession opens with top notes of plum, rose and nutmeg, which is then blended with a heart of tuberose and jasmine, all of which is neatly rounded off with a smooth base of amber, sandalwood and vanilla. This is seriously very addictive and my husband loves when I wear this (blush, blush 😉 ).

I recently treated myself to Jimmy Choo ‘Flash’ which is more of a party perfume. This has Sparkles of Pink Pepper, Tangerine and Strawberry introduce a flash of White Flowers and Tuberose.

Jimmy Choo describes this as Intoxicating and dangerously sexy, the scent parades on a catwalk of addictive Powdery Woods.

Jo Malone Lime Basil and Mandarin (citrus notes) is on my wishlist 🙂

  • Favorite Lip Color

Recently I have been drawn towards terracotta & muted red shades. Gerard Cosmetics hydra matte ‘Everything Nice’ and Colourpop ultra matte ‘Bumble’ have been my go-to lippies. Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution ‘Bond Girl’ is a new found love which I recently got my hands on but was on my wishlist forever. This lipstick is from rosewood & mahogany shade family.

  • Favorite Drink

I’m a sucker for Vanilla milkshakes and I also enjoy Soda lime with a dash of spices prepared by my dear husband 🙂

  • Favorite Blush

Illamasqua blushes are hands down my all time faves particularly cream blush in shade Dixie (a very pretty deep peach blush) and powder blusher duo in Lover & Hussy (a beautiful duo of pink and peach).

I also love Amaretto, (a muted orange blush with terracotta undertones) blush from Becca cosmetics x Jaclyn Hill Champagne glow face palette and Makeup Geek powder blush ‘Infatuation’ (a dark peachy blush with chocolate undertones).

  • Favorite Clothing item

Definitely dresses for summer or shorts with an airy top works well for me on most days. I have a colourful maxi dress from Marks & Spencer which looks so pretty in photographs as well as in real life.

  • Favorite Movie

Usually I’m a ‘Devil wears Prada’ kinda person but I also enjoy watching thriller movies like ‘Jack Reacher’ or movies based on real incidents like ‘Zero Dark Thirty’ , ‘Air Lift’ etc.

  • Favorite TV show

I am not a TV person since last couple of years. Earlier I was addicted to Keeping up with Kardashians series but not anymore.

  • Favorite Food

This might sound weird but I love snacking on wheat cereals. I know I know that’s lots of calories but I am addicted 😛

  2. Love your lipstick picks, for me these kind of shades are more for Autumn/Winter so I will be adding them on my wish list 🙂 Summer is about holidays and beach, of course! xx
