Colour Focus: Peach


Thanks to a recent impulse purchase, I've absolutely fallen head over heels for peach shades. It's like I've had a magnet installed in me to attract anything peach. From dresses, to nails and even fruit. Totally out of my usual greige family comfort zone - madness I know.

First up is what started it all - Mac Style Blush. A lot of love has to be given to this blush, it's absolutely stunning on the skin. The golden finely milled shimmer running through it helps fake that 'lit from within' glow that aids to enhancing a tan.


Since finding Mac Style Blush, I've been on a desperate quest to find the lipgloss equivalent, so much so I applied the blush on my lips! On one of my many Sephora trips this summer, I came across Make Up For Ever S6, which is a pretty close match! A light peach shade with a gorgeous golden shimmer  with a formula that isn't too sticky or drying.



As for my nails it's still a love affair with Essie Tart Deco which I spoke about in more detail here for being the perfect tan enhancing bright nail shade.


If I had to choose a drink that made me think of summer it would be Iced Tea Peach. Surely I'm not the only one that can't put this down? There hasn't been a day where I haven't gone without my daily fix. It's so refreshing and really hits the spot when I need to cool down. 

Speaking of food and drink, flat peaches are my new food obsession. Mainly because they aren't readily available in London - grass is always greener on the other side and all that jazz. If you're a fruit eater, I definitely recommend checking them out - much more flavour than your average peach.

One of my most used skirts this summer is of course, peach! It's perfect for humid days as it's totally weightless so I don't find myself getting too flustered in it. It has one of those Angie leg slits too - great for allowing a little breeze!

What's your favourite peach item?
