Grey

 

 

 

 

Hey guys!

Sorry I haven't posted this week, I've been really busy back at uni!

So its officially getting colder.. which I am not loving so much. I would much rather it be hot all year round, but then we wouldn't get to wear cute warm & woolly outfits!

 

So this is today's outfit! I'm really trying to avoid jumpers and thick clothing as I'm still clinging on to the thought of summer! All my outfits this week have included either a skirt/ dress or bright floral trousers (and tights)!

 

So this grey swing dress is actually Bella's, and I think she bought it last year from missguided. It is really soft and it looks woolly and thick but its actually pretty thin and stretchy and is really easy to dress up and down. I wore this with some tights that I got from primark, the boots I also wore are from primark which I bought last year too and are so comfy.

 

This sleeveless jacket is from Amazon.co.uk, I bought it in black but there was a mocha, white and khaki one but i decided on black as it goes with pretty much everything! It also has a tie that goes round it to do up at the front.

 

I'm also wearing my Olivia Burton watch and Thomas Sabo necklace and a purpley red lipstick from Kiko Cosmetics number 614.

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!!!

D.I.Y Louboutin's

 

 

 

 

Happy Friday guys!!

 

So today's post is a little different to my previous ones! It is my 21st birthday in September and I really wanted some fab shoes, so I had been looking at ones online... especially admiring Christian Louboutin's infamous red soled beauties! Obviously I can't afford the real thing so I decided I would make my own for so much cheaper !

 

To begin with I shopped around for the 'perfect shoes' that will go with my birthday dress. I finally found them in the Next sale for a whole £16 from £32 (ish)!

 

I then researched the best way to paint the bottom of shoes and found that using wall paint and clear acrylic were a popular thing to use as well as a simple nail varnish and clear top coat- so I decided to use nail varnish as it would be cheaper!

 

When it came to painting the soles of my shoes, I covered the fabric around the sole with masking tape to avoid getting the paint on to the rest of the shoe. I also made sure there was no dirt on the soles before I painted them so I gave them a quick clean with soapy water which did the trick.

 

The nail varnish I used to paint the soles of these shoes was a 'Miss Sporty' red in the shade 150 (which was £1.99 a bottle I think), I got two bottles (one for each sole as the bottles are only small and need more than one layer). I then painted each sole with two coats- leaving each one to dry before I added another coat.

 

I then left them over night before adding two layers of 'Collection Top Coat' (which was about £2.99). I decided to use a clear nail varnish to keep the red on as if my nail varnish can stay on without getting chipped after working or washing up I think it can stay on the bottom of some shoes- even if it doesn't last that long!

 

Once the clear had dried my own Louboutin's were finished! I can't wait to wear this next month, and I will be doing a post on my birthday outfit- including these beauties! I hope you like this post- if so let me know and I can try and do more like this!!

 

Have a lovely weekend!
