Waiting For Sunshine

Rosy Gold Glow

August 29, 2014

I think I am a little late to this party, but as the autumn draws in I find my online ogling being more and more consumed with Rose Gold beauties. I just think there is something about it that says "warm and luxurious" and if there is anything I want from my drab rainy autumn months, it is warmth and luxury!

Once again I have no idea how to make the picture here feature at the top and not the bottom of the post - but scroll down and have a look at my wish list of awesome Rosy Gold 

Just for reference, because I hate when people post things that make me go "oooooooh want!" and then don't leave notes:

1. Obviously the Naked 3 palette. It is pay day today and it is FINALLY HAPPENING. I can't tell you how excited I am. I have watched so many youtube tutorials on this beauty that I am fairly sure I now qualify as a beauty pro. (hahaha... ahem).
2. Deborah Lipman 'Gorgeous Life' Nail polish - not a brand I've had much of anything to do with, but this colour is delicious. Perfect with some silver nail stripes! 
3. Hot Diamonds Shades of Spring Necklace ...alright so spring is long gone but lets just ignore that for now. This necklace is right up my street. So delicate and pretty. Every season I read about chunky jewellery and I think maybe it would be nice, but I actually look like a cartoon character when I put it on!
4. Noooooo... I just went to find the link to this and it is sold out :'( however I did find this Rebecca Minkoff Bag that is actually even more gorgeous and since its not metallic, also far more wearable.
5. I Phone case in swanky rose gold stripes... nothing more to say about this little piece of gorgeous.
6. Michael Kors - yummm! This White and Rose gold beauty if just stunning and I just discovered this store courtesy of a lovely bloggy friend; they are often about £50 cheaper than other retailers so technically it would be poor budgeting NOT to buy it... right?

I did consider also posting about the incredibly awesome faux fur hot water bottle that I bought this week (YES - IN AUGUST - GRRR) but since that isn't really style related I will not bore you with that. 

So... autumn. Before August has even finished. Grrr Britian!

    Those are all gorgeous!  I am a big fan of rose gold as well, and recently got a watch similar to the one you posted.

    All are lovely!

    Rose gold is just beautiful. There is something very grown up about it to me:). I especially like the necklace #3. And I'd love to see the hot water bottle cover...mine is animal print :)

    I love rose gold and am continuing to wear it even when the trend passes. It's flattering on my skin and provides a nice contrast with the cool colors I tend to wear most. Those are nice picks -- I love that nail polish and might need to try it!

    I'm drawn to it, too, It seems less loud than gold and lighter than bronze to me.

    I loooooove rose gold; in fact, I talked my husband into getting me a rose gold and morganite necklace and earrings set for my birthday (and dropping heavy hints for a ring for Christmas).  He thinks its too "trendy" but I told him I love it even when it isn't in style and this is the best time to buy it since the option are endless.  Yay for rose gold!

    It is really flattering on my skin and almost melts in which is why I like it so much. I have been eye-balling the Naked 3, let us know what you think!

    Thanks for a different kind of post - really liked seeing one with accessories, makeup, etc - a pin board of inspiration that is not all shoes etc. I love rose gold too - and really like what you've picked here. In fact , I think I will use this as a good makeup strategy for the next 2 months....perfect warm fall colours indeed! btw - Deborah Lippman nail enamel is really good - and her top coat and hand cream are worth the $$

    I love rose gold too! It's so warm and elegant and seems less flashy than "real" gold can be.

    I especially love the bag and necklace you picked and also have a rose gold watch I like a lot.

Hi, I'm Rhea! Living in rainy England means my love of floaty sun dresses, flip flops and camisole tops is one that is unfulfilled. One day I will scrape together the money to head out to sunnier climes, but while I wait for sunshine, there is no good reason not to 'Look Fab' in the meantime!
