As September brings new beginnings, and a new season, we’ll all need to update our wardrobe for encroaching colder months. Understandably, this also gives us the excuse to update our makeup draws… even if we don’t need to (we won’t tell if you don’t!).
To read your full horoscope reading for this month read Joanna Hope’s predictions here.
