...I'm back!

Hey girls! Oh my goodness I can't believe it's been over 2 weeks since I last posted, this is not like me at all! But anyway, I am back :) and I'm going to be posting every couple of days now. I start work at 11:30 everyday so I have time to do outfit posts before I go to work which is amazing! I  have been really busy with work as I started TOPSHOP last monday and it's been manic, absolutely flippin' incredibe though! I finally feel that I belong somewhere, I'm with loads of girls who are my age which is amazing and I just love the atmosphere as everyone are so nice! It also helps that it is most definitely one of my favourite shops of all time! I'm getting good customer feedback and I feel as though I've picked it up really quickly as well which is good :) things are running very smoothly!

 This is the outfit I wore to work today (all from Topshop surprise surprise haha). The minute this cardigan came in, I feel in love instantly because I feel as though it's very Chanel inspired because of the shape and pattern and it's so me! I also bought this blouse to go underneath it as it's quite simple and doesn't drag the attention away from the cardigan :) I can also wear this shirt under all sorts! This necklace however, was reduced from £15 to £1.50!?!?!?! So I HAD to buy it, I thought it was such a bargain and it's also gorgeous and will go with a lot and will glam up any outfit!

What do you think of my outfit guys? Would love to hear from you all again :)

...Topshop Haul

Hey guys! How's everyones week been? :) I've had quite a boring week actually, had a couple of days off which I spent sat at home watching movies as it was too cold to go outside! Then I handed in my notice at work which didn't go down very smoothly, so glad it's over and done with though! Anyway, I thought I'd splash out on a few pieces from TOPSHOP (they're all online) as I start my new job there in a couple of weeks and I want a few new outfits! I got so excited when the package came through the post! I still have a lot of clothes from TOPSHOP but tbh not as many as I thought. I also thought it would be better to buy some items from the 'new in' section so when I wear them to work, people will see how popular and lovely they are :) As you can see by the photos, I have quite a neutral colour palette for the clothes I mainly wear, because I feel as though they suit me better and they also go with a lot more! For example I can mix and match a lot of these items :). This is a first post I've ever done of me actually wearing the clothes, but I thought I'd show you some of the outfits I'd be wearing. Obviously they'd both be teamed with jewellery and accessories, so these are just the basic outfits. I absolutely love the lace top and skirt, and the blazer with it also looks gorgeous! I was thinking of buying a few necklaces and rings from TOPSHOP to make the outfit look more trendy and less plain so I'll keep you updated on that :)

 

What do you guys think of my clothes/outfits?



...Mini Haul

Hey girls! Sorry I haven't posted in a while, it's literally been a crazy but amazing week! I don't know where to start, but basically I'VE LANDED A FULL TIME JOB AT TOPSHOP! I cannot express my happiness, it's literally a dream come true of mine and I'm extremely happy as it will open so many doors for me to get into the fashion indsutry later on in life! I didn't really see any point in handing in my CV because they never have any jobs going, but literally the minute I walked in, I heard one of the shop workers say "yes we have a full time position available" I literally rushed over to her straight away and gave her my CV, thinking nothing of it. The next day I got a phone call from her asking me to go in for an interview on Saturday, which I did and I didn't think I did that well because it was extremely intense. She said she'd let me know up to 2 weeks whether I was successful or not because she had other people to interview, but literally an hour after the interview she rang me telling me I got it straight away as they were really impressed and that I'd fit in with the team well! So excited :) I start in 2 weeks time and get a uniform allowance and 25% discount! So I will be posting a lot about the clothes I buy and wishlists from there so stay tuned! Anyway, when I went to town I picked up a few little bits and bobs that I've wanted for some time :)

The first item I purchased was the Body Shop shower gel which I absolutely love! My boyfriends mum bought me this for Christmas and I absolutley love the scent, it smells so fresh and it's gorgeous! I ran out so quickly as I used so much, so I popped into Bodyshop again and bought another one and it was only £4.50, as you can see it's called 'Atlan Mountain Rose' and I definitely recommend it to everyone!

 

Next I bought some nail wraps from Primark. I've seen bloggers post about them before saying how lovely and cute the patterns are, and they did actually have a really nice selection! I picked the spots and flowers because they're right up my street and are really cute, especially for £1 each! But then when I applied them, they literally lasted about 1 day and that was it. They're cheap for a reason! I was going to post a photograph of my nails but by the time I was going to, they started to peel off which was annoying :( they're really pretty patterns but I wouldn't recommend!

 

Lastly, I bought these really cute elasticated headbands from Primark and they were also £1 each! They'd go lush with my fringe, as they have really cute bows on the top, so with my hair up in a high bun, it would look really cute and I think they'd make any outfit look good :) these are obviously more for during the day than evening and I can literally wear them wherever! I was slightly disappointed with Primark's selection, these were the only two styles they had and I was expecting more! But I still love them :) I will do a post of me wearing them at some point so keep an eye out!

 

What do you guys think? :)

 





...Current Favourite Lipsticks and Glosses

1. Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick, Sugar Plum/2. Rimmel London Kate Moss Collection Lipstick in 03/ 3. 17 Supreme Shine Lipstick, Barely Blush/ 4. Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick Matte, Asia/ 5. Rimmel London Stay Glossy in 120.

 

The first lipstick is the Rimmel London in the colour Sugar Plum which is one of my newer ones. I'm really glad I bought it because the colour immediately brightens up my face as it looks quite bright on my skin tone. I usually wear quite neutral lipsticks which blend in as I don't really like bright lipsticks very much, but I really wanted a nice colour for when I go out clubbing and things in the evening as I think the neutral ones look too plain. Like the name on the packaging, it literally is a lovely plum colour but it's not dull which is how I imagined it to look, it's bright and looks so gorgeous! It's really easy and nice to apply as it's smooth, I only apply it lightly so it's not too garish and then I maybe add a reaaaally light lipgloss over the top just to add a bit of glamour.

 

The second is again the brand Rimmel London and as you can see, it's getting pretty worn out. This is my oldest lipstick which I've had for over a year now and it's nearly gone! It's definitely my favourite lipstick out of all of them, I love it! The colour matches my skin tone perfectly because it's more of a neutral pink/brown and it's suitable for all occasions, why is why it's nearly gone! It's really easy to apply and I can put as much on as I want without it looking too bold, and same with above, I add a light pink lipgloss over the top as I prefer it looking more glossy rather than matte and it's perfect for a day and evening look.

 

The third lipstick is the newest one I only bought about a month ago with the boots voucher my boyfriends Nan bought me for Christmas. The brand is 17, which I'd never even heard of until I saw it in the shop and I have to say I'm really impressed :) they have such a selection of different colours and shades and I was literally there for ages trying out the samples on my hand to see which one I wanted. In the end I decided on this shade, called Barely Blush (really cute name too). I use it for all occassions and it's the colour that I've been searching for, for ages! It's looks lighter in person than on the picture, as it's a really nice light pink colour which is SO soft and feminine. I wear it mainly during the day when I'm going shopping or anything like that. It's too good for work I think so I save it for different occassions! It's definitely my lipstick of the month at the moment and reccommend it to all :)

 

The fourth one is another Rimmel lipstick surprise surprise haha. The colour is called Asia which is a really dark pink, maybe a bit brown too,  and to be honest, the only reason why I actually bought this one was to replace the one that was running out (the Kate Moss one) but clever me, I bought the wrong colour and it's slighly darker than I imagined. I still really like it and it adds variety to my make-up bag but I wish it was a slightly bit lighter as I feel as though it slightly washes me out. I don't really wear it during the day anymore as I wear my 17 lipstick instead. But for going out in the evening for dinner and things like that it's always good because it's not too garish or neutral, it's bascially in the middle!

 

Lastly, it's my favourite lipgloss EVER, Rimmel London Stay Glossy. I wear this basically everyday, constantly keep it in my handbag so I can quickly apply it over any lipstick whenever I like as it literally suits all the colours of lipstick I own which is amazing :) it's quite bad really because this is the only lipgloss I've basically ever worn. Whenever it runs out, I literally go out and buy the exact same one to replace it which is quite bad haha. I think I need to try a new one now, by a new brand too so I'll keep you girls updated! :)

 

What are you favourite brands or colours? Would love to hear from you all as usual :)

 



...New Headbands

Hey girls! Hope you've all had a nice weekend? :) mine has actually been really busy but quite nice. Yesterday morning I had a wedding photography course at a local college of mine and it was from 9:30-1:30 and it was really fun! I thought I'd go because I'm taking photographs for a friends wedding in the summer and I thought it would be best to go to a course (only cost about £30) to learn more about technique and things and I actually found it really interesting and fun! The only awkward thing, was that I was the youngest there :( they were literally all bout 40+ who wanted to learn about how to get into the wedding photography industry and they all had no experience whatsoever which is quite funny! But anyway, the course has now made me really excited for my friends wedding and if I enjoy it, I may do some work experience with some photographers, either wedding or normal. Then I picked my boyfriend up in the afternoon and we went shopping as he needed some new shirts for work. So I thought, whilst I'm in town I'll have a little wonder in Accessorize (as I got a £15 voucher for Christmas) and I wanted to see if there was much in there. They actually had a really nice selection of bits and bobs. In the end, I bought these two gorgeous headbands. I thought because I've now got a fringe, headbands would look really nice in my hair and I'd wear them a lot, during the day and evening! These are more evening ones and I want to get some elasticated ones just for the day too :) what do you think of them?
White one: £7.00, Black one with bow: £6.00

...Recent Purchases

Hey girls! Been really busy recently, I went swimming last night with my boyfriend which was so exhausting, like I haven't had any excercise since waaaay before Christmas and I was knackered after like half a length. Definitely need to sort that out haha. Anyway, pay day time yay :) I got a loveeely pay cheque at the end of this month so I'm a really happy bunny. I thought I'd treat my self to a few bits! Starting with the bag, I don't actually need a new bag (I never do) I just seem to buy them for no reason whatsoever as I'm such an addict. But I did want a bigger size bag, so I can fit more in such as my SLR camera for when I go out places, and I love big bags too, they're like my comfort blanket. I just adore the colour of it and the studded detail was what mae me want it so much! You can find this here, from prettylittlething.com. The leggings are high waisted, also from prettylittlething and I've wanted some like these for a while because they're more like jodhpurs and the colour beiege is also on trend. Then I bought this beautiful knitted jumper, from boohoo only £18, such a bargain right!? It's an oversized jumper and I picked the colour coral because I always seem to wear quite plain and boring colours and I thought this would brighten up my wardrobe during the spring :) I love it!

Then just the general boring bits, I bought new brushes for my foundation and blusher because they were getting really grubby and the hairs kept falling out and landing on my skin which was horrible haha, so that was a well needed buy! I needed some new mascara as well because mine was running out, and I thought I'd try a new one instead of the same old type. It's called lash accelorator by Rimmel and it was £6.99, when I give it a go I'll let you know and give you review on it :) I then bought some new impulses because the ones I recieved at Christmas have all ran out somehow!? I go through them so quickly haha so I bought two to last me a couple of months :) which are new scents that I haven't tried yet! Lastly, I keep seeing the advert on TV with Cheryl Cole advertising the L'Oreal Elnett styling spray and it looks so good, especially for hair like mine! There were three different types, one for curls, straight hair and volume. I picked the one for volume as that's what I always want for my hair, haven't tried it yet but I will do very soon and will keep you all updated on it :) oh and this is the outfit I'm going to wear tomorrow as I've got a wedding photography course in the morning from 9:30-1:30 which will be fun! Slightly nervous but it should be fine! Wish me luck :) would love to know what you all think of my purchases? :) thanks lovelies.
