My Fashion and Beauty Wish List for October 2024.

A girl can dream.

Oversized jumpers and snakeskin are a theme for my desires this month.

And yes I am tagging this in my gift list category, just in case.

Go on – take some inspiration and treat yourself! You deserve it.

1. Oud Immortel by Byredo

Let’s start by smelling the part. The changing of the seasons calls for a heavier, sexier fragrance and when I visit Space NK I make a beeline for this one. It is divine and I want to smell like a sultry goddess. Please. £220 – makes me weep.

2. Mono Print Oversize Jumper

This would be perfect to throw on and elevate a simple outfit, especially on those days that call for something a bit baggier. A new addition to my ASOS wish list. £60.

3. Zara Snakeskin Jeans

Add an oversized black polo neck and you’ve got the perfect autumn outfit! A bargain at £27.99.

4. Daily Sleeper Feather Cuff Cardi

Keep those wrists happy with an added layer of texture and warmth + look cute. £185 for full price, but often on sale if you keep an eye out.

5. Nike Free Metcon 5 Trainers

I need some new trainers for the gym and these come highly recommended. £120 means I shall continue to use my current trainers until they are literally disintegrating.

6. ASOS Snakeskin Heeled Boots

Another new addition to my ASOS wish list – these would be perfect as styled here, poking out underneath black jeans. Snakeskin is a theme for my October. £70.

7. Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Stick

Say no to chapped lips with colder winds. Eight Hour Cream is my go-to to keep my lips supple in wintery months. £23 and this stuff lasts for years.

8. Benefit Benetint Lip & Cheek Stain

101 in how to cheat that winter rosey cheeks look without getting frost bite. £21.50 for the mini, which is enough to last a year or so if you use it every few days.

9. Cos Merino Wool Asymmetric Jumper

I love the oversized knitwear at Cos at the moment and will be setting a Vinted alert for this beaut piece. At £95 it is actually pretty ‘reasonable’ compared to other oversized jumpers at Cos this season.

10. Current Body Red Light LED Mask

I dream of sitting cosily on my sofa every evening with my book, a hot water bottle and this mask, repairing my old millennial skin. £399 though… suppose i’ll just continue getting more and more fine lines.

11. M&S Silver Wave Cuff Bracelet

So simple, so chic, so sold out… but I am keeping an eagle eye out as this is one item I could probably afford at £16.50.

12. GHD Glide Hot Brush in Fondant Pink

Keep my frizz at bay so I can wear my hair down as an extra layer of warmth on my neck – it is a win win. And the pink version is basic and fabulous. £179.
