Nothing like a lipstick to make you look cute for the Christmas parties. Though I’m a fan of the nude lip, I like to switch it up with a bold matte lip like Mac’s Ruby Woo (aka the best red lipstick of all time) This one looks like a rival for top spot though, created […]
12 Days of Christmas: Vanessa Mooney Ring [1].
To kick off my annual 12 Days of Christmas shopping guide [AKA a list of things I want ; )], Day 1’s pick is Vanessa Mooney’s Unisex Mother Mary Horseshoe ring. I came across her designs last year and not a month goes by without my craving something new from the Los Angeles based designer. […]

I’ve created an Apple Music playlist that I’ll be regularly updating. It’s called LILY RADIO and will be full of songs that I’ve got on repeat right now… Let me know your favourite in the comments!
12 Days of Christmas: adidas Yeezy 500 Desert Rat [6].
I still don’t own a pair of Yeezy’s. Though I do appreciate the design of the original pair Kanye created with adidas, its all about the adidas Yeezy 500 Desert Rat for me. I love a bulky shoe shape, maybe it’s because I have fairly little feet so they look cute in these kinds of trainers. […]
12 Days of Christmas: Vanessa Mooney Gold Necklace [4].
I’ve always had a thing for layered gold necklaces and finally I’ve perfected the five layer one thanks to Vanessa Mooney’s gorgeous CIELO ROSE & AMOR NECKLACE. It sits perfectly in-between my Lamborghini and MERCER necklaces, which are also gold. Having added it to my collection, now I’m craving the PRAING HANDS GOLD NECKACE, which […]
12 Days of Christmas: Dorothy Print [3].
What to get the person that has everything? I ask myself that every year when it comes to shopping for my step dad. These prints are the ideal answer to that question, with something on offer for all ages. Personally I would like the world map inspired by the locations famous songs are set in. […]
12 Days Of Christmas: Quay Australia Barnun Sunglasses [2].
Over the past two years, QUAY have become my favourite shades brand, consistently releasing the best looking sunglasses at decent prices. This year they collaborated with everyone from Kylie Jenner to Shay Mitchell to produce even more epic designs. I’ve copped at least 4 pairs this year, the latest of which – the Barnun – […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: T is for Tracksuits
Im a certified cosy girl, I enjoy nothing more than being dressed in a tracksuit. It makes me feel like I can be comfortable, do whatever I need to that day, whilst getting through my work, even if I’m rushing. I do love heels, but realistically you can’t do a full days work running round […]
L.I.L.Y.: Imran’s Potato Sacks.
I’ve had a thing for fake designer bags for years now. One of my favourites in my collection is an amazing furry Versace bag that the Italian brand wouldn’t dream of making. There’s something about the contrast of high end designer with tacky, cheap-looking fabrics. With that in mind, this bag is LITERALLY LIFTED FROM […]
L.I.L.Y.: Mac Cosmetics Pearl Matte Face Powder.
I’ve been a fan of MAC since Shyne said “a little bit of MAC lipgloss” on ‘Bonnie & Shyne’. The lyric made me cop one – Pink Poodle in case you care – but it was the subtle vanilla smell that made me a fan for life. To this day, at least half my make […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: S is for Storage.
I realised I was getting old when I was able to have a full conversation about home storage, without any embarrassment. It’s actually one of my favourite things, along with another S; Stationary. Storage boxes make me feel like my life is in order, something that’s very important when your life is erratic as mine. […]
L.I.L.Y: Agent Provocateur Seraphina Set.
The Agent Provocateur ‘Seraphina’ set arrived in my inbox this morning and I could barely breathe, I was literally holding my chest. I need it in my life. Simple. If anyone would like to send it my way, I’m a 34E… Agent Provocateur Seraphina Bra £195 Agent Provocateur Seraphina Thong £85
Lily Loves Alphabet: R is for Reading
In the latest installment of my Lily Loves ABC, R is for reading. I love books, it’s also a very appropriate day for this post as March 3rd is World Book Day! I’ve been into books since I was a little kid, I have two parents that read A LOT, so I’ve inherited multiple collections […]
My Favourite Creatives: Veruschka.
This week my favourite creative is Veruschka, a model who transcended beauty and transformed into an artist and photographer. She’s someone I’m inspired by for various reasons but predominantly, it’s her adventurous approach to creating images. Veruschka would often use body paint and camouflage herself within weird settings, painting her skin to look like a […]
Lily Loves Alphabet: Q is for Quay Sunglasses.
Quay are my favourite sunglasses brand, I think it’s down to the fact they make the shapes that suit my eyes most – those big cat eye lenses – but they also do amazing fifties style lenses in a variety of modern colours. Every season they drop a new set of frames that I really […]
Meet: Wifisfuneral.
Age: 19 Location: Palm Beach, Fl Releases: When Hell Falls 1.What’s the meaning behind your name? It’s just how me and my best friend met. His best friend committed suicide and that’s how we became friends. I named myself ‘wifi’ because I wanted my music to be nationwide. 2. What other names have you had? […]

The Lily Mercer Show, every Sunday night/Monday morning from 1-3am [GMT] on Rinse FM. On February 5th, I brought you an interview with Belly Squad, talking about their hit Banana and who they’d like to collab with. I also played two hours of new and underground Hip Hop, including new music from Stormzy, Divine Council […]
My Favourite Creatives: City of God.
‘City of God’ is not only my favourite film, it’s also my favourite book. I first saw the film version around the time it came out in 2002 and immediately I was hooked. I’ve always been drawn to films focused on gang culture and even though ‘City of God’ isn’t directly about gangs, it gives […]
The Lily Mercer Show: January 29th: The Divine Council Takeover Show.
It’s been almost a year since an artist has taken over The Lily Mercer Show. I’m very happy the second act to do a takeover are Divine Council, a Virginia collective that I’ve been playing on the show for almost two years. The Divine Council Show features three exclusive tracks plus fun facts about $ilk […]
