Faux Suede

 

Hey Guys! I hope you had a great weekend!

The weather is so confusing at the moment you wake up and it'd freezing outside but by lunch time the sun is out and its boiling, this is what happened yesterday when I wore this outfit and I was just so hot in long sleeves and tights! But I loved this outfit so I didn't really care about the weather haha! I'm loving faux suede so much at the moment, I bought this skirt from Primark for £10! I love this skirt, it fits perfectly and it is so so soft so for a tenner this is a bargain!

 

I teamed the skirt with my boohoo.com lace up back crop top which is really comfy and looks nice with most skirts/ trousers that I have! I also wore black tights- as it was cold when I got dressed- and pointed black dolly shoes that are also from primark , I will add a link to them below. I also wore my faux fur gilet that I bought in primark last year, I will also add a link below to something similar as I don't think they still sell them.

 

The bag that I finished this outfit off with was my python Celine bag which I love so much and is by far my favourite bag ever and Tom Ford sunglasses.

 

So as I said on my instagram, I have just started back at Uni for my second year and will have loads of projects to keep on top of so I am going to try my hardest to keep on top of my blog as much as I can by posting at least twice a week as I have been! If you have any requests on what you would like to see me blog about feel free to leave me comments below! I also hope you all like my review post that I did the other day, I really enjoyed doing it and will be doing more in the future, it was just something different to what I have previously done and I hope you enjoyed reading it!

 

See you all next time!

KIKO Mascara Review

 

 

Before

 

After

 

 

Hey guys, happy friday!

Today's post is something a little different to what I have done in the past as it is going to be a review on the latest mascara that I have purchased, the reason for this is that I was asked to review these latest buys over on my instagram, but the only thing I have got round to using yet is the mascara!

 

So yesterday I went shopping is Cambridge and popped into the KIKO cosmetics shop that they have there and as I usually do, I bought something new to try out. I have tried the nail varnishes/ lipsticks and lip pencils before so I decided it was time to try one of the mascaras. I am usually a Maybelline mascara kinda girl but I thought why not try something new!

 

I usually go for the Maybelline 'colossal volum express cat eyes' mascara (I will add a link below) which has a curved brush and makes my eyelashes look so long and thick. This KIKO 'Unforgettable mascara' does exactly the same, I actually think it is better, it goes on perfectly and the brush is quite fat so it covers every eyelash and makes them look full and long. This was actually in the sale I think for about £3.90 which is about half the price of the Maybelline (which is about £7.99) one yet I find it is so much better and not as clumpy as other ones that I have used before.

 

Overall, I really like this mascara and I will definitely be buying more from kiko in the future, I have so many lipsticks from there its silly so I think this will be the start of a new collection for me!

 

I hope you like this post and if you would like to see more on the nail varnishes/ lipsticks that I have please let me know and I will be happy to review them!

 

See you next time.

Hey guys!! How have you all been?! Today's post is a kinda belated payday wish list (slash) what I really want for the next few months as A/W approaches!

So the first three images of the most recent online purchase that I have made from boohoo.com. I LOVE lace up items at the moment and faux suede, and especially when they are together! So these three garments arrived this morning.. don't you love that feeling you get when the doorbell rings and you know that its a delivery for you.. its so exciting, but opening it is the best part, its addictive and makes me so happy to have these newbie in my life (sad I know)!! These boots are just below knee height, they have a zip down the back so they are easy to put on/ take off and have lace up sides so you can loosen them slightly if they are too tight tot begin with- they are also VERY comfy and easy to walk in I have seen these sold in quite a lot of other online shops e.g. public desire for the same price. The second item is the faux suede 'chocolate' brown lace up front dress, this is so so soft and would look really good either dressed up or down! The last item that arrived this morning is the black high neck long sleeved lace up back crop top which looks so cute on and will go with so much of my wardrobe, if you would like me to post about how I style it then please let me know!!

So the next items in this list of my A/W wish list, are all from missguided. I'm loving khaki and rust coloured things at the moment as you can tell as most of these are those colours. The first item is similar to the black crop top that I have just told you about with the lace up feature with its lace up sleeves which I just so cute! I have also previously blogged about my love for wide leg trousers which I'm still loving for the next seasons, as well as culottes, I recently bought myself some white culottes from primary (which is risky because I don't trust myself wearing white things because knowing me ill ruin them) but I'm loving these pinstripe culottes as they are still summery but also great for autumn as if you're like me and really don't want summer to be over yet they keep the summery vibe alive!

I remember Bella loving the kind of shirts that are next on the list last year and this year I'm loving them too as shirt dresses as they are so simple yet make a real statement and are so easy to dress up with the new lace up boots that is at the top of this list or some converse to dress it down.

As I have also previously mentioned, I am loving khaki and rust colours this season, they are just so bang on trend and colours that I wouldn't usually wear but I can't get enough of them right now! I'm loving this khaki sleeveless duster style jacket with matching trousers, I love this sophisticated coord outfit and it needs to be in my wardrobe when payday comes around!! Same with these rust wide leg trousers, they are so nice and they're even better that they're high wasted and would look lush with my black lace back crop!

The last thing on this list is the beautiful double tassel rust faux suede jacket that I can't imagine being the best in the rain but lovely in the cool autumn breeze. This is an ultimate MUST for the up and coming season!

If you have any questions/ suggestions, as always, let me know and i'll catch you on my next post!!

My 21st

 

Hey Guys, how is everyone?

So I have been so busy over the past few months planning my 21st birthday party which was James Bond themed! In case you hadn't noticed, I wore a very bold red dress!!

So I had been looking for a dress for a while and I knew I wanted a red dress, so after hours of looking around in shops and online I found the perfect online shop where I got this made, which I highly recommend using if you want any style/ colour dress, they have pretty much every style and can make them in any colour and it will be made especially for you, this is the website- http://www.dylanqueen.co.uk .

 

So the dress I chose was called 'A-Line/Princess High Neck Long Sleeves Applique Floor-length Chiffon Dress' I chose to have it made in 'Red' (obviously) but I didn't really know how it would look because the picture on the site was in silver! This dress is an Ellie Saab dress, but rather than it being in the original silver/grey colour it is red. I love this dress so much, I love how it sparkles in the light, I love the neckline and of course the fact that it is backless. As I have big boobs (its a nightmare) I didn't really know how to go about wearing a bra with this, so in the end I just didn't wear one as the back is so cut out that what ever is worn will be seen which I really didn't want, but it all worked out in the end!!

 

This dress has a small zip below the end of the back so it is easy to put on/ off it also has a little fabric belt like Chiffon ribbon around the waist to add a little shape between the top and lower parts of the dress. With this dress I wore the shoes that I have photos of in my 'DIY Louboutin's' post which looked fab with my dress, but I took them off after about an hour because they killed my feet!

 

If anyone was wondering, the dark red/ purple lipstick I am wearing is 'DIVA' by M.A.C which I only applied once over the whole night as it didn't come off once!!

 

If you have any questions about anything in this post, please leave a comment or email me and I will get back to you asap! As you can see, there are photos of Bella up here too so I have got her to write a little bit about her outfit below, but for now I hope you have enjoyed this post and I will see you next time!!

Hey! Its Bella here, so as Em said, it was her 21st birthday at the weekend and she had a James Bond themed party which was fab and she looked amazing!

 

So the outfit I wore was a monochrome jumpsuit from Quiz that has a very pretty diamante waistband which is so sparkley!! I love the halter neck neck on this jumpsuit and it fits the theme so well as I was going for a 70's Bond vibe.

 

The shoes I wore are from New Look which were really comfy and looked so good with my outfit!!

As Em said, if you have any questions please just leave a comment or email! 

See you next time!

Outfit 5

Hey everyone it's Bella here! I hope you all had a great summer and have got a good tan on! My summer was fab, I went to turkey for two weeks so as Emillie has done, I thought I would show you my top 5 outfits that I wore when I went out in the evenings, I hope you like them.

 
Outfit 1- this outfit was one of my faves! The skirt is from a very cheap shop in Italy, which  Emillie bought last year on holiday, but unfortunately we can't remember the name of the shop. My top is from pretty little thing, it was in the sale, it has slits in the sides and is very comfy. My black sleeveless cardigan is crochet and it from Primark, I find it can go with anything (well most things). Finally, my shoes are actually my mums and they are from Clarks. They are extremely comfy and so pretty.

Outfit 2- My second outfit was one I wanted to save until near the end of my holiday, as its a white dress and I wanted it to complement my tan. The dress is from Miss Selfridge and I love it, its one of those dresses that I will always love even if I don't wear it often. The shoes are from River Island and I bought them literally a week before we went away on holiday, I found them in the sale and it was one of those must have buys, they aren't to height either but are so comfy and pretty. I love the silver, holographic effect. The lemon clutch is one of my favourite ever accessorise! I actually love it so much. Its from New Look and again another bargain in the sale. It also came in orange. I use it all the time and was worth the buy.

Outfit 3- My top is the same pretty little thing top worn in outfit 1. My skirt is actually part of a skirt and jacket co-ord from missguided. I purchased it fro my birthday in march and I absolutely love it. I think its so pretty and I think it can easily be dressed up or dressed down. Its simple but elegant I think. The shoes worn are from tkmaxx. They are black and white, platform sandals and cross over on the feet. They are extremely comfy and I can wear them either with a skirt or dress or with jeans when its colder.

Outfit 4- this outfit is also one of my favourites and a classic holiday outfit for me. Emillie won it on an instagram competition last year and I love it because it never goes out of style and I love the reds in it, its so bright and it really stands out. My shoes are also from tkmaxx and I call them my gladiator sandals even though they aren't very gladiator, they can be worn with or without socks but I wear them with and I know many won't like that I wear socks with them especially flamingo ones as the outfit and socks are completely different patterns but hey! The socks are from new look and the shoes are unbelievably comfy I could walk in them forever.

Outfit 5- my last outfit which isn't really an outfit I must say, sooo, my bikini is from river island and I love it! I also got another bikini from river island and I wore both all holiday. They were both so comfy and good quality. They were also really well made too. As I have big boobs I find so many things so unflattering and it annoys me so much as so many shops don't make clothes to flatter you or if they do they are extremely expensive or revolting and I am not about that. So when I tried this bikini on and my other one I was hugely surprised to find that they both fitted but also to find that they were so comfy and I never felt as though I was falling out of either bikini. So honestly, I really recommend river island bikinis.

Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed what I wrote and I hope it helped you in some way. I also hope you like my outfits and if you have any questions or opinions leave them in the comments below. I wish you all a good week, see you next time!!

Outfit 5.

 Hey guys! I hope you have all had a glorious summer!

I am back from my holiday! I went to Turkey for the first time (with my family)!

We went to Fethiye, Calis Beach which was so beautiful and definitely one of my favourite places to go! While we were out there I took photos of most of my outfits so I could show you guys what I wore on trips out or for the evenings, the outfits here are the my top 5 favourites, as I went for two and a half weeks, that is an awful lot of outfits to blog about so I have chosen my top 5! Bella will be doing a post on some of her favourite outfits in the next couple of days too!

 

Outfit 1- This is the outfit that I wore on the plane to Turkey, as I have said before I am a big fan of wide leg trousers and these are the perfect things to wear on a plane as they are so comfy and are basically like wearing pyjamas, these ones are from Tesco! I wore them with a white Miss Selfridge bell sleeve off the shoulder crop top and black Birkenstock sandals.

 

Outfit 2- My second outfit is what I wore on the first night of being in the glorious Turkish heat, wearing again a wide leg garment this time being my monochrome palm tree culottes from Primark combined with my Primark ribbed off the shoulder crop top and Birkenstock sandals, I also used my cute tassel clutch that I bought in H&M.

 

Outfit 3- So my third outfit is what I wore to the massive Fethiye market- this day was boiling, I mean I can handle the heat- I love the sun and the hotter the better but on this particular day it must have been about 40 degrees, it was so damn hot I couldn't even be bothered to shop!!! But I'm glad I wore this orange halter neck crop top from ASOS with my trusty monochrome pompom Primark shorts, again with my Birkenstock sandals and a black bumbag from Tiger.

 

Outfit 4- so my second outfit I have blogged about before, but it has made my top 5 holiday outfits because I love these Missguided shorts so much! I wore them with a Missguided black off the shoulder crop top and again.. my Birkenstocks with my tassel H&M clutch bag. I also wore a little sun necklace that I bought in the mountains whilst on an excursion trip! (helping out the local trade and all)!!

 

Outfit 5- My fifth and favourite outfit of the holiday is what I wore for my brothers birthday meal. This gorgeous faux suede off the shoulder tassel playsuit is from Missguided (of course), it is so comfy and soooooo soft I couldn't help but stroke it all night! I also wore it with my Birkenstocks as they were the comfiest shoes that I took on holiday as we had quite a walk down to the promenade to the restaurants and shops.

 

I don't know if you guys have noticed but I love off- the - shoulder garments.. I have only just realised how much I wear them! (Incase any of you were wondering, the bikini I'm wearing in the second photo down is from River Island, but I bought it last year so I don't think it will be around anymore!)

 

I hope you have liked this post on my favourite holiday outfits, Bella will be doing one on her faves too as I have previously said!!!
