{the rachelle lust list : 19th february 2013}

Although it still mightn't feel like it, winter is finally on its way out and I'm already clearing some space in my wardrobe for some lovely spring things - and some cult classics that I'm desperate to try...
t h e  n i n t e e n t h  o f  f e b r u a r y . . .
1. Unless you've been living under a rock, you'll know that monochrome (once again) is huge news for SS13, as are digital-print florals (again). I've declared love for statement jackets and their versability too many times before so  I shan't harp on again - but instead quietly buy this beautiful Topshop blazer (I first spied the pink version, which has been shit on by this one.. sorry, Mum). 
2. Spring also marks the start of me throwing my dark, matte lipsticks to one side (sorry, Diva) in favour of lighter, sheer pretty neutral hues - I'm desperate to try a YSL Rogue Volupte Lipstick which you may not believe still isnt in my makeup collection yet. How am I even sitting here, having the audacity to write about beauty you may (quite rightly) ask...
3. I'm becoming somewhat of a skincare Nazi after a bad reaction resulting in a horrible, dry and spotty face at the beginning of the year and am desperately trying to fill up any gaps I have in my current skincare routine to prevent/treat any issues as they may arise - I've heard nothing but glowing reviews about the entire Dr. Jart range, in particular the Water-Max Sleeping Mask which sounds right up my street. Watch this space.
4. I picked up this lovely little skater dress last week, Topshop do the best skater dresses on the high street - perfectly nipped in at the waist with just the right amount of flare, this is another classic monochrome piece I can see myself living in throughout the next few months.
5. This Alexander McQueen skull bracelet has been on my lust list for too long. Enough is enough. Next time I see it, I will buy it.
6. T Another skincare classic I'm desperate to try is the cult cleanser to out cleanse all cleansers (wow) the Eve Lom balm needs no introduction. This, applied with the infamous massage technique (details in the leaflet) is supposed to be lethal. Annoyingly priced when compared to my beloved Liz Earle, I'm still undeterred.
7. I'm still on the hunt for the right summer boots, these quirky sling-back style from Topshop originally caught my eye - but as I'm actually considering their practicality already is definitely a warning sign...

What has caught your eye this week? rachelle xo
