Do it like a Dude.

Boyfriend Jeans:River Island, Shirt:Mango, Heeled Boots:Asos, Watch: River Island.

This is a look I will be most definitely recreating in the new few weeks..Cool,edgy,stylish and a little bit sexy-PERFECT!  Now ye should all know that any one who knows me would tell you all that I don't do jeans. Not skinny,not wide leg,not straight cut..nothing!! I honestly haven't worn a pair of jeans for over two years at this stage. The reason for this is because I gave up a long time ago trying to find a pair that I really liked and felt looked good. And then I spied this pair on River Island Online..and it was love at first sight! What's not to love? Their effortlessly cool and can be worn both on a night out or for a daytime look. Daytime and Night time covered..that's a win win!

For a night time look I would pair these jeans with this white shirt from Mango loosely tucked in, along with these gooooorgeous boots from Asos. Add this watch from River Island for a lil bling (How cute is it?!) and a few rings of your choice to add your own personal touch. A tailored blazer or leather jacket over this and you are good to go. Sexy without a thigh or boob in sight!!


So what do you gals think? Would you style the jeans like this? Or would you work them another way? Or would you even wear these styled jeans? 'Each to their own' and all that jazz!!

I hope you enjoyed this post ladies. Stayed tuned for another update.

Much Love,

A Snoop Inside My Make-Up Bag.

Hiya Ladies,

Right so whether we like to admit it or not we all love to have a poke through our sister's or friend's make-up bags. Just to do the routine 'Is this any good?' or 'Oooh I'll have to get this myself' nose around! (Please say it's not just me!!) So I am so kindly making the snooping session easy and letting ye all have a peak at what is in my make up bag along with my personal opinion on it.

My most coveted product at the moment is Benefit's 'Hello Flawless' custom powder cover-up.

Now I have had this powder once before and I fell absolutely in love with it, so I was sure to put it on my Santa list this year! Obviously because it would be more expensive than other powder foundations I try my best to spare it. (Try and fail!). When I first purchased it I was abit reluctant as I get quite alot of blemishes on my skin, but honestly I really find it amazing. It feel so light when applied and really does cover up leaving a flawless finish. It also comes with both a brush and sponge so you have the option of which to use. But it most definitely is something I recommend..so much so I'll be sure to put it on my Birthday Gift list..or atleast drop a few hints!! Cough Cough!

Sticking with Benefit another product of theirs that I recently bought is High Beam.
At the risk of sounding like someone who is just swooning over everything by Benefit, I have to admit that I am loving this. It just adds that extra something to my over all make-up look. I mostly wear this on nights out but every so often when I am feeling like putting that extra effort into my day look I pop some of this on. I apply three dots along each cheek bone and a dot on my temple and then dab it-instant shimmer. An absolute must buy if you find yourself standing at a Benefit counter not knowing what to buy. (As opposed to wanting to buy everything!)

Now that's enough from Benefit! I am a true believer in budget make-up. For the sheer fact that I am extremely forgetful and knowing my luck, I would leave a make-up bag full of expensive buys in a taxi or nightclub bathroom. (It's happened before!!). And hey who says you can't look fabulous on a budget?  There are two affordable brands with great products that I absolutely swear by. Those being Catrice Cosmetics and 17 Make Up Products available in all Boot's stores. So I am going to keep it simple, bar a few Benefit cosmetics ALL of my make up bag is made up of these products. Mascara,Eye Shadow,Eye Liner,Blusher,Lipsticks,Primer..you name it...I have it..and all from Catrice or 17.  I would add some photos of these products but with the amount I own..this would be going on for quite some time! All the products can be found in the links above.

So that's a little insight into my make-up bag but my two main adored items I think I have raved enough about-Can you guess what they are?!! What about you guys? Any make up product you just couldn't live without? Please do let me know in the comments below as I am always looking for another product to try out. Or if you have any questions about the Catrice or 17 products please don't hesitate to ask.

Hope you guy's enjoyed this post and serious preparations are being made for some outfit snaps so keep an eye out for those.

Much love,

I only want these few things...

Okay so like every other red blooded female everything I see..I want! But I have managed to narrow it down to two or three of my most sought after items.

First of all I am really loving the dungarees look lately. After hours of scrolling through websites I have finally decided that the one I want the most is this black tailored number from Topshop, which you can see here. I would wear this with a white long sleeved, buttoned up shirt, perhaps a coloured clutch to add a splash of colour to the outfit and these shoes, also from Topshop, which I have been drooling over for a while now. I would wear this outfit on a night out with the girls for a smart and stylish look.

One accessory I just have to have this season is a collar tip. I absolutely love wearing buttoned up shirts and these accessories are beyond cute. I spotted this one in River Island online which is my favourite so far and you can see it right here. I really love the diamante gem embellishment on this one and could see myself wearing it quite alot so it is most definitely one of the top items on my wish list.

I'm also on the look out for a wine velvet skater dress for ages now but so far I have found none that I really like. So any suggestions on where I could find one please leave a comment below. It will be greatly appreciated by me -not my bank balance!!!

Also as I mentioned in my first post I actually did stick to my word and post again today..Go me!! :)

Stay tuned in the next coming days for another post.

Much love

The End of the Beginning.

Well hello there..

Today I finally bit the bullet and did something I have been thinking about for quite awhile now. That being to set up my own blog.

 The idea behind it really was to create my own personal style journal. Now don't be expecting anything fancy because I am far from it! I am just your run of the mill girl who loves fashion and everything to do with it. Like every other girl I have my hang up's,my days where I "have nothing to wear" and my days where the effort of getting ready makes me want to curl up under my duvet and never come out.(Thankfully that mood doesn't strike me too often!) So hopefully this blog will give me a good kick up the behind and encourage me to put that little bit of extra effort into my overall apperance and maybe give me that little confidence boost that every girl needs from time to time. I want the outfits in this blog to be afforadable and outfits that anyone can easily create..so don't be expecting any desinger labels here ladies.. because I couldn't own them even if I tried!!

Now you'll have to bear with me because the joys of being a poor student means I am currently in the midst of saving for a proper camera. I will be using my brother's digital camera to snap a few outifts over the next few days so please excuse the quality as it might not be exactly eh..high standard!. I will pledge right here right now to do my best to post as regularly as possible and if not ye can leave mountains of abuse in the comments below!! But I might even get my act together and post later today..if not..then in the next few coming days.

So here's to hopefully the start of something special...Watch this space people!!
