Mum : Where is your coat Shirley? Me : It’s in the house mum, I’m just taking pictures. I’ll put it on when I’m actually going out later. Promise. Mum : Hmph. Ok. Don’t come to me when you get a cold. Me : You can’t get a cold from standing in the cold mum. You get it from an infection. Mum : Silly girl. My mum still doesn’t understand what we do here. Bless her. This is me in my New snakeskin print waterfall dress. I’m so in love with it. I don’t mind wearing it over and over… Read More »

Mellow Yellow

FASHION, OUTFITS, PHOTO DIARY
December 27 2011

London at night is beautiful. I find myself on occasion, taking long strolls through the city as if I were visiting for the first time, getting lost in all the wonderful scenery and architecture. Lots to photograph for sure! I was born here, and I’ve known London all my life, but I feel like there are still places to be discovered, people to see, and great experiences to have… I got this yellow dress from Topshop last week, so flowy, so silky, so lovely! I adore it. Really loving the pops of colour at the moment. Getting quite tired of… Read More »

The Festive Frock

December 24 2011

This is my beloved Red dress, which I’ve had for almost a year, and I’ve been keeping it safe until the right day came around… and it’s here!! I named it The Festive Frock, because of it’s vibrant red colour that is synonymous with the holiday season! Paired with this cream blazer and wedges, and accessorised with some gold jewellery, I thought it perfect for the Christmas Day celebrations! I’ll be spending the morning opening gifts with my family, then off to my Aunt’s house for more food, laughs and banter with my extended family! Looking forward to it! 🙂 Dress : Primark… Read More »

My Mystic Turquoise Coat

FASHION, OUTFITS
December 23 2011

With the sunset dusting the atmosphere, exuding a surreal feel, this made for a perfect backdrop to shoot my new Mystic Turquoise Coat. The weather was beautiful. It wasn’t too cold, and it wasn’t too warm. It was just right. This coat has everything I look for in a coat. The classic style, the simple cut, and above all, the colour. Nothing like a bit of colour to brighten up your winter wardrobe.  Coat : H&M Dress : H&M Tights : Primark Boots : Forever 21 Bag : Zara Jewellery : H&M **PS** Check out my NEW Hair Update on my YouTube Channel!… Read More »

BEAUTY BASICS | Eyebrows

BEAUTY
December 21 2011

Eyebrows. They totally frame the face. I happen to be very particular about my eyebrows, and if they aren’t in a good state, I get in a strop! I get mine professionally threaded at a local Brow Bar, and these can be found everywhere, from malls to beauty salons! I’d definitely recommend this method of grooming, because it leaves the brows looking clean and perfect. If you like doing your eyebrows yourself, I’d advice you to first allow a professional to thread them, so you can have a guide of how your eyebrows should look, then if you want, you can just pluck the… Read More »

BEAUTY BASICS | Simple Daytime Smokey Eye

BEAUTY
December 19 2011

A look I often sport. It’s simple, and I’m sure everyone can have a go! All that is required is the right blending technique, a little smudged smoky layer, and you’re good. If you want, you can amp it up by increasing the black on the outer corner or even add more liner to the lower lash line to make it even more smokier…it’s up to you! This is just how I achieve mine! 🙂 Products Used ~ Eyes ~ Primer : UDPP Base : Jumbo Pencil, Black Bean (NYX) Lid : Tempting (MAC) Crease : Cork, Texture (MAC) Outer Corner :… Read More »

Metallic.

December 18 2011

Hi! 🙂 I don’t know why it seems like ages since I last posted and outfit (Only Last Sunday). I guess because it’s been a while since I shot outside! Hmmm. I decided to wear my metallic jumper today! It’s one of my favourite pieces! Don’t be fooled, I know it looks like i’m not dressed for the bitterly cold weather we’re having in London at the moment, but I have two layers underneath the jumper, and I was without my (very lovely furry) coat briefly, to shoot this! Oh and can you believe these boots where only £20? …Forever… Read More »

Details, SHOPPING, Sponsored
December 13 2011

I believe that two people can walk into a room dressed in the same clothing, but what may separate them with regards to their style, lies in the details. And the details are in the accessory. With accesories one can become really creative and they can allow their style and personality to show through. As you’ve noticed I’ve been going gaga over the past few weeks with my accessory buying and every time I come across a new piece that I feel speaks to me, or a new accessory store, I get very excited! I’d like to share with you a… Read More »
