I don't know if its just me or if everyone gets like this but if i like something i tend to obsess over it for months on end. I notice patterns in things i buy, for example i will love a certain colour and the next 10 purchases i make will be in that colour. Different tops, jumpers, eyeshadows, nail varnish, it could be anything but it will all be in the same colour. It can even be a certain item like last month it was shoe's. I brought 3 pairs of shoes last month, THREE! Two of them being open toes pairs. I hate to admit it but they were pretty much the same?!
I never put myself down as someone with an addictive personality but i'm starting to realise that saying that, isn't a reliable statement. Any hoo, now that I'm coming to terms with the fact that maybe i might just have that addictive personality trait, i might as well embrace it, right?
So here's what I'm obsessing over this month.
Metallic's
Metallic is everywhere at the moment. Copper especially. I'm currently saving up for a mortgage with my boyfriend Kori so I'm always imagining our interior design. I'm constantly drooling over Pintrest and home ware sections of shops, dreaming about how i will decorate when we finally get our own place. One thing i know for sure is that whatever colour themes we go for, each room will have a metal. I love the way different textures compliment each other and i think adding metal into the mix creates more dimension to a room. We have a 'bottom drawer', which is a draw we fill with things we have bought in preparation for our future house (well it started off a a draw, its now a few boxes) I have recently been buying a lot of Metallic things, like photo fames and fruit bowls, which i have been trying to save and put by for our new house but they are so pretty that i'm using them now - oops.

Mules
OH MY GOD. i frikkin' love these shoes. Last year they made waves in the fashion world and i desperately wanted a pair but Kori, my Mum, Sisters and any other family member i told would squeal in disbelief that i liked them. Everyone i knew and asked seemed to hate them, which unfortunately steered me clear from purchasing a pair (peer pressure sucks). But this is the second time around i keep seeing them in shops and swooning over them and I'm not letting peer pressure get the better of me and i will be getting some! Watch this space.
Lip Liners
Everyone and their mum has either tried or at least read about 'Kylie Jenner's Lips'. Since trying out the matte, flesh tone look myself it has rekindled my love for lip liners. No, I'm not over drawing my lips but i am loving how much longer my lipstick lasts during the day with the added extra of a lip liner. I don't know why i ever stopped purchasing lip liners but i'm glad this Kylie trend has become a thing because i've fallen back in love with how sharp and defined liners make my lips. I'm also a matte lips kinda gal,and its so hard to find a matte lipstick that doesn't crack. I find liners work perfectly for that effect as they have the perfect consistency that doesn't end up looking too 'cakey'. My favourite right now is Rimmel Eastend Snob.
Sports Bra's
My fitness game is on point right now. I feel the healthiest i've been in a loooong time. I'm working out 4/5 times a week and can actually say i'm loving it. So as you can imagine by working out pretty much every week day, i need a good amount of sports wear to get me through the week. With the amount of sweating I'm doing theres no chance of wearing the same item twice so i've had the luxury of going shopping and actually being able to truly say "but i neeeeed all of this". My favourite place for sports wear a the moment is H&M the quality is amazing and its half the price of bigger brands like Nike and Adidas. ![]() |

Broccoli
Okay, this is a weird one and no I'm not pregnant. But i cant stop eating broccoli! I've even started eating it raw and nibbling on it before i cook it! (is that even safe?) I can't get enough, putting it in stir fry, pasta, soup, every time we have a veg dish you can bet ya bottom dollar theres broccoli in it! I can't explain it, all i know is, right know i'm loving broccoli!
Do you get obsessions over weird things or is it genially just me?
Sophie.
