Fashion

A Vintage Leather Loewe Coat  

Found after boredom-induced hours scouring through the treasure trove that is Ebay, this coat is has come into it’s own the season. The oversized fit and slouchy nature are perfect lazily layering in this typically British, grey and damp weather. 

Beauty

Hot Cloth Cleansing

Now hot cloth cleansing is nothing new, but it’s almost been made redundant as fresher cleansing methods have entered the spotlight. Using a comfortably hot cloth to removed MUN Skincare’s creamy, oil-based Akwi Purifying Cleanser is the perfect way to clear the skin of makeup, pollution and enviromental debris from the day, and wide down for the evening.

Lifestyle

Non-Lazy Mornings

The colder seasons mean waking up while the sun’s still dormant, and so, when the chance arises we often find ourselves sleeping in. However, getting up, making a hot drink ( lemon water to purify your digestive system) and warming up with yoga session is not only more productive but eradicates that sense of guilt that accumulates when you roll out of bed 11.30am.

Culture

“Yo Stop That Shit"

Now Drake is not the best example of a male feminist, let’s face it he’s a pretty problematic example of male feminism in general – regardless of the amount of Birkin bags that he’s collected for his future wife. However, male feminist or not, Drake calling out an male audience member for touching women in the crowd during his performance at an Australian afterparty is nothing but good thing. 

Food

Peanut Butter Porridge and Sautéed Cinnamon Apple

A bowl of oats is never a bad idea (here’s a recipe for an on-the-go version), and as winter creeps in it becomes every more desirable as a simple, wholesome breakfast. Add always-welcomed peanut butter and sautéed apples seasoned with cinnamon, and we have a winning morning meal.
