Photo perfect: a week in pictures

Sometimes you just want to share with the world your favourite things! These aren't all necessarily fashion or beauty related but here's just a few of the things we've been loving this week.

If you want to see more of our pictures why not follow us on Twitter - we tweet about the blog @HEBeautifulLife or individually we're at @unicornvintage (Emma) or @haztastical (Harriet, also on instagram with the same name!).

EMMA:

This is my new necklace from Topshop which I'm absolutely in love with / My new YSL lipstick is a must have, this one is 14 Corail In Touch £24 / My little grandson loves Topshop just as much as I do, he was trying on this headband to show his Aunty Sian how cool he looked!

Love my own sundae creation made out of greek yoghurt, meringue, raspberries and ice cream / When I saw these cute heart bracelets in H&M I just had to have them, they're so sweet / This hair oil was a total bargain at £1.99 from Bodyshop, it really makes your hair sleek and smooth - go get some girls!

I did a photo shoot last week - the models looked truly amazing in my vintage clothes, all of the clothes featured are from the shop / These new trainers are super cool and the most comfy things on my feet - ASOS £50 / I just can't get enough of magazines!

HARRIET:

Hairpins from Emma's shop, loving using these when I have my hair in a bun / Been living off Cafe Nero milkshake recently! Their new chocolate and coconut one is lush but the mint is my all time fave / I saw this card and just had to buy it, it's on my wall at work - so true!

Loving cute pink lips for the spring! This lipstick is from MUA, I've had it a while but it's a definite spring colour / I'm now officially RYA Level 1! Learning to sail is so much fun, I'd recommend it to anyone / I bought this amazing silver bracelet from Emma, it's got a lovely pattern and just needs a little TLC to get it shining again!

I'm playing this song constantly on the way to and from work, when I'm jogging, anywhere! Love it / This is my new jumper from Emma's shop, wearing it today even though it's probably too warm for jumpers right now! / This amazing cupcake was absolutely delicious, yum yum!

Girls about town: shopping in Solihull

Yesterday Kate and Emma popped over to Solihull to do a spot of shopping - they really enjoyed themselves and felt like they could have spent a whole week there! As well as indulging themselves in the shops in the Touchwood Shopping Centre, they also stopped off at the Homemade Burger Co for lunch - delicious! Emma chose a classic barbecue burger with homemade chips while Kate had a chicken burger with cheese and chilli, also with chips. For pudding they picked a lemon meringue pudding with fresh cream and ice cream for Em and chocolate brownie with cream and ice cream for Katie.

Have a look at the shopping centre's website www.touchwoodsolihull.co.uk for more information about the shops on offer there!

Here's a little look at what they picked up!

Dancing the night away

Last night, Harriet and one of her best friends Rachael went on a night to Snobs in Birmingham. Rach runs a lovely little blog here all about her love of tea, vintage and the simple things in life! We had a fab time dancing the night away to some quality tunes and decided once we were dressed Harriet had accidentally taken inspiration from Olivia Newton-John at the end of Grease for her outfit! Rach was definitely rocking the Grecian goddess look. Here's a little peak at the outfits:

HARRIET:

Leather jacket - New Look / hairpins - from Emma's shop / statement necklace - Miss Selfridge / t-shirt - New Look / leggings - Topshop / shoes - New Look

RACH:

Feather headband - River Island / dress - Chelsea Girl at River Island / shoes - River Island / owl necklace -  Harriet's from Primark

Wardrobe wishlist: our favourite spring looks

Well it's almost April and like any fashion lovers we've been looking forward to the month ahead and all the goodies we want to buy. Our wardrobes are set to be bursting at the seams once we've purchased everything on our wishlist! But for now we've put together a list of six of our favourite items for spring. Click on any of the descriptions to go straight to the store's website if any of them tickle your fancy!

EMMA:

KAP Metallic Toe Cap Point Shoes - Topshop

Leopard print is one of those prints that will be around for the rest of our lives and I absolutely love these! They just scream 'style' right at you and I'm sure these little beauts will be on my feet all year round.

Skirt - American Apparel

I am loving the American Apparel skirts these season, they almost look vintage and can be dressed up or down for day or night!

Chloe perfume - The Perfume Shop

I absolutely love this perfume! The smell is so fresh it makes you feel as though you're walking through a field full of flowers and the fragrance lasts forever!

Bag - Topshop

I really can't wait to buy this panther bag from Topshop. It's so lightweight that you can throw anything in it and at just £15 you'll really get your money's worth!

Dress - Topshop

I am loving this dress from Topshop - what a find! I'll be wearing this constantly, I especially love the looseness of it which will be ideal on days you don't feel your best!

Trainers - ASOS

I can't wait to buy and wear this trainers, they'll just look so cool with anything you pair them with!

HARRIET:

Textured nail varnish - Barry M

I really want to try out this textured look on my nails and, knowing my love for Barry M, will probably end up with all four of the shades on offer in this range at the moment!

Bodycon dress- Topshop

The distinctive pattern on this dress just caught my eye straightaway! It's only £30 and I think it would look amazing with a simple pair of heels, statement earrings and a big bun hairdo for going out this spring!

Jacket - H&M

I'm a massive fan of a blazer and love it when it gets to the point where you can finally shed those winter clothes and get out and about with just a jacket on! The print on this little number is simply lovely.

Cut out platforms - Topshop

I am in desperate need of some new heels (if 'want' means 'need'!) and my heart skipped a little beat when I saw these. Not only are they my absolute favourite print in the world but they're also a fab shape, get me to the shops now!

Denim shirt - Boohoo

I already have way too many denim shirts in my wardrobe but the pattern on this is so lovely I don't think I'll be able to resist!

Patterned jeans - New Look

I'm a big fan of New Look for jeans as I think their sizing is very reliable and the quality's great for the price. I want to go a bit bolder with my jeans this seasons so these would be the perfect pair to achieve that look!
