Must Have Boots 2015

Hi guys, as it's approaching winter in the UK and it's getting slightly colder it means I can get my booties out (Whoop). I love wearing boots and thought it would be a good idea to do a blog post of the ‘Must Have’ boots this season.

So here are my top 4 boots for this season that will make everyone envy you. (I have no right over these images they are not being used for commercial use)

So first up these H&M boots, which looks so effortlessly chic and at only £29.99 you really cant go wrong. They are in imitation suede with details in imitation leather, with a zip on the side. You can style these casually with some jeans and a plain top and still look stylish.

So next up are these ASOS Western Pointed Chelsea Ankle Boots at only £38.00 these are another steal. The point is very trendy and these stylish boots can uplift any outfit and black goes with everything. 

Now these sexy ZARA High Heel Ankle Boots are just something else, they are so classy and clean that out can wear these for any night out but then also the next day for work, and at £69.00 you have to admit they are worth every penny. 

Now another sexy pair of shoes are these Misguided Heeled Tassel Knee High Boots which just ooze stylishness and they are £50. Teamed up with ripped denim shorts, white boyfriend tee and bomber jacket will create an effortless chic look with these fierce knee high heeled boots. In always on trend black, these faux suede beauts feature tassel detailing down the side will give you chilled vibes. 

Hope you liked this post and the boots I have recommended because aren't they all just so beautiful, comment down which you liked the best.

Favourite Lip Looks

Hi Guys for this post I’m going to be addressing a very serious issue regarding lips, I really can’t leave the house without any lipstick, gloss or lip liner on. I have to have something there because then my lips just look dead. So I wanted to in this post share some of my favourite lip looks and what I love wearing or wish I could pull off.

I’ve just gathered these images from the internet with my favourite looks:

Aren't they just beautiful! I love each and everyone, so as you can tell by this I'm really into dark lips but I'm always using brown so I'm looking to try some new colours this season. Wish me luck!

ZARA AW15 Collection

Hello, again this is just another blog which houses my perspective on the new high street collection and today's blog is my all-time favourite brand Zara. This brand offers high quality products which look very expensive but are quite affordable compared to designer brands. 

The brand has moved towards a more tailored classically feminine aesthetic. Winter coats and tailored trousers are teamed with colour pop leather skirts and distressed denim, giving the collection an eclectic feel. Among the neutral styles, there are patchwork bags, suede coats and over-the-knee boots. They have incorporated nature very well but it’s not overpowering.

Here are my favourite pieces from the collection:

Flat Ankle Boots with Laces - £49.99

Long Coat with Draped Neck - £59.99

Combined Leather City Bag - £99.99

Embroidered Jacket - £79.99

I hope you all like this collection and honestly I wouldn't expect less from Zara. I don't have a Zara in my town so I'll have to go all the way to Birmingham to purchase some collection. I know there is online shopping but I'm a shopaholic and I enjoy the actual experience more. 

Comment below whether you like online shopping or the real thing.

River Island AW15 Collection

Hi Guys so as I said the next few post will be my opinion on the new high street collections and today is popular high street brand River Island. It’s one of my favourite brands and overall they don’t really disappoint. This year’s Autumn/Winter collection was just as I expected overall very stunning however there are just too many printed T-shirts part of it and that's not really my thing. It a good collection but not as great as what they have previously produced. 

I do love the palette of colours they have used very autumnal tones which are very popular. The new collection oozes subtle sophistication with clean lines, statement textures and misty prints. Smoke printed maxi dresses and cotton tees are intertwined with leather dresses and knitted jumpers. Famous designer Zoe Jordan has been part of the creation, she has worked with Vogue before and has helped sprinkle her magic at River Island. 

These are my favourite pieces from the collection:

Red Ribbed Zip Front Maxi - £30

Cream Knitted Cold Shoulder Jumper Dress - £50

Deep Orange Split Front Pencil Skirt - £30

Khaki Knitted Cowl Neck Jumper Dress - £45

I really like some key items in the collection and cant wait to purchase some, comment below what your favourite item from this collection has been

Stay tuned for my next post.

Autumn Outfits Inspiration 2015

Hey Guys! So for this post I wanted to again do an inspiration outfit board so I picked some pictures again and outfit ideas from my Pinterest in which I have a board of outfit ideas which you should check out, and put them together for an Autumn inspiration board this time.

This board is what I think is very trendy this season and I am absolutely loving every look, especially the long camel coats! Autumn is definitely my favourite season because it’s not super cold but you can still wear loads of layers without a bulky coat on top.

Comment below what your favourite trend for this season is, or what your favourite season is.

TOPSHOP AW15 Collection

Hi Guys, so over the weeks I’m going to be doing a blog which contains my thoughts on the new AW15 collections of popular high street brands. The first is Topshop a high street brand which is always all about the trends. Topshop can be disappointing at times but I believe this Autumn/Winter they have really delivered.

Their new collection is inspired by Gigi Hadid one of the top leading models so obviously their collection was going to be amazing but Topshop have really upped their game and there are so many pieces from their collection which I love. From the classic leather biker and iconic white tee to the new way to do glamour in faux-fur and coloured knits, what’s not to love?

These are some of the pieces i'm quite keen on:

Vinyl A-line Skirt - £38

Leather Biker Jacket - £165

Bell Thigh High Boots - £125

Clean Midi Skirt - £36

I hope you all really like this collection as much as I do, you should definitely hit the shops to grab these items before they go. 

Stay tuned for my ideas on the other high street collection and comment below what is your favourite item.

Balmain x H&M

Hey Guys! So I've finally completed all my exams and other important academic things meaning I can start posting more!

So as I said I was revising for my exams for the past month so I decided to delete all social networking off my phone and vowed not to go on it until my exams were over! Well this meant I had absolutely no idea about the Balmain Paris and H&M collaboration which are two of my favourite fashion brands! So lets just day I was way too excited for this when i did eventually find out and absolutley cant wait until the collection is released.

So the creative director of Balmain Oliver Rousteing will be designing a collection ready to hit the stores. The first pieces of the collection were seen on Kendall Jenner and Jourdan Dunn at the Billboard Music Awards, and let me tell you the collection is definitely promising as they looked stunning.

When questioned about this collaboration Oliver said 'I want to talk to my generation: this is my main aim as a designer'. He wants to create a global movement and soon after, #HMBalmaination was trending. 

 

To say the least I'm definitely camping out on November the 5th to get my hands on this collection, the luxury French brand it self has become an important part of the pop culture, with my icons such as Kim Kardashian and Kanye West supporting this brand so gives me more of an excuse to purchase it!

Comment below if your excited like me!

My Skincare Routine!

Hey guys so for a new post I decided to share my skincare routine, I'm trying a range of different products to help improve my skin and I thought I would share what they are. I honestly have very unbalanced skin, its very prone to spots and also is very hyper pigmented in certain areas and I don't feel very confident in my skin so I've been trying different routines to see if I can improve it.

This routine is not professionally advised I just bought some products and decided to try them. I have tried many different products and I think these so far have worked the most efficiently.

So before I mention them I just want to say that there are some products which I use everyday and some which I use in the week but not everyday, I do have a plan which tells me what products to use on what day. These are just all the products I use throughout the week.

So the first product is my face cleanser which is the Bioré – Deep Pore Charcoal Cleanser, which I use everyday twice. I think this product personally has worked well in removing my spots but not very well in scarring and marks. The cleanser overall is actually very good it leaves a fresh tingly feeling and helps your skin look more brighter. I bought this particularly because it has charcoal in it which is according to dermatologists very good for your skin in trapping impurities.

The next product that I use is another cleaner called Bioré – Blemish Fighting Ice Cleanser this is another great product similar to the first cleanser but this targets specifically spots. I only use this 3 days in a week with the first cleanser. 

 

The last cleansing product that I use is an exfoliater, these are very good in removing dead skin cells and the dirt off your face. The exfoliater that I use is the Garnier – Pure Active Wasabi Power. As you can see I like using products promoting natural ingredients, as I do biology at college I learn quite important things about different products and what they actually do and therefore I think its very important that if you can to brush up on the ingredients you should and then see if they are good for you and your skin. 

 

On a normal basis I would end this with a moisturizer excepts for the weekends where I use a face mask. The one I use is called Quick Fix Facials – Purifying Charcoal Mask – Congested and Lifeless Skin. I love this product its so easy to use and as very lasting results its helped improve the brightness of my skin and removed dark areas. This line of products cater for every skin type and I just picked this one as I thought it would compliment my cleanser as it includes charcoal. 

 

Lastly I would moisturize my skin because it does get dry on some occasions and honestly I don't have a particular chosen moisturizer but I use Gorgeous by Gok Wan, I know this is a body butter but I prefer the consistency of them and how they feel. I'm not sure if that is wrong and I should not be using that but I'd really like someone tell me if that's a problem because I'm not very good at choosing moisturizers and maybe advise some alternatives. 

 

Anyways that is it! This is exactly what I do to try and maintain healthy skin if you have a more effective version please let me know and comment below as I really do want to improve my skin. Also if you want any detailed reviews on the products mentioned do let me know.

Lots of love

#1 Outfit Idea February 2015

Hey guys so for today's post I have put together an outfit for you, its very chic and trendy so perfect for this cold winter month. The items are very affordable and they all compliment each other well. I wanted to show a simple look that's look effortless but expensive. All the items used are also very versatile as they can be used for other ideas, so I would think of this outfit as an investment! ;)

So first of all I wanted one piece to base my whole outfit around and I picked the Leather Trousers from Dorothy Perkins as leather is quite in and good for bringing an outfit together, these were only £28 which I think is great so I would get them before they are gone. I then wanted to add some sexiness to this outfit so I picked the knee high Suede Heeled Boots from the NastyDress website, these just look very expensive and really uplift the outfit. These again are very affordable for only £27.73 so make sure you grab these before they go.

I had the bottom sorted so now it was for the top, I wanted it to be simple so I went for the plain Pleat Blouse from House for Fraser which I would put this V Neck Jumper from ASDA to give it that cute school girl look. The top was £19 and the jumper only £8 and you can use these again and again!

So now the basics are sorted it was time to jazz up the outfit with accessories, first the Wool Hat from H&M which is so trendy and chic it looks great with every outfit. This was only £12 and its just adds so much class to the outfit and looks rather expensive. To finish this monochrome outfit a statement necklace was needed as they are currently very fashionable and a go to item, I picked the Cut Out Fan Necklace from Debenhams as you can use it again for many other outfits and its just adds that sparkle to this one. It was only £14 so I definitely recommend you go pick this up. To just bring everything together I suggest the matte White Hot Love by Rita Ora for Rimmel nail polish as it just finishes the whole look and is simple but effective.

I hope you liked this Outfit Idea as there are more to come and I definitely suggest you go try this out and watch the compliments go wild! If you like any of these items please comment below and tell me why!

February 2015 Lush Haul

Hey guys so I recently I went to Lush in two different areas once in Coventry and then again in Birmingham. I went to both of between a few days so I thought I should do a collective haul. The shops are always absolutely packed as usual and sometimes its difficult to get your hands on all the products available so I bought quite a few bath bombs and was only able to pick up one soap and one bubble bar.

The soap I picked up was Rock Star, I got 113g for £4.01 but I think its 100g for £3.40. This honestly smells so good I wanted to eat it. Its got a sweet almost sour candy smell and its just so divine. I was also wanting to get the Honey I washed the Kids soap which is my favourite but I thought I should try other different soaps.
 

 

So this is the only bubble bar I picked and this one is Heart Throb. I don't know whether this was a valentines special because I had never seen it but I thought I would try it, this was only £3.65. Lush had quite a few valentines items but most were gone when I went to the shops so I couldn't try them. :(

 

Okay so now for the bath bombs I got 3 when I went to Coventry and 2 when I went to Birmingham, so the first one I picked up was Space Girl and this I have used. I normally use the whole thing but my Mum wanted to try some so I made a failed attempt in trying to break it (supposed to look like a Saturn the planet lol). This was only £2.35 and smells so good and like sweets and fruit.

The second one I picked up was the Phoenix Rising, this just looked really cool and I really wanted to see if it made the water all sparkly. I saw on twitter people buying some Lush bath bombs which did that but I couldn't  find them in the UK, quite annoying :( but this was only  £3.35. 

 

I also picked up Ickle Baby Bot for my younger brother just because he really wanted it for only £1.95, and it just looks so cute!

 

Then my friend got me this for my Birthday but she bought it with me so I thought I would add it in, she bought Rose Queen for £2.75. This looks so cool with all the rose petals in and I cant wait to try it.

The last bath bomb I bought was Think Pink for £2.65, and I bought this because I went on the website and saw that actually you have tiny hearts come out of this bath bomb and I was just too excited and had to buy it.

 

That was everything I bought from Lush, I really hope you enjoyed reading this and make sure you try out some of these. If anyone wants any reviews of any of these products do let me know, or if anyone wants to share a review or tell me their favourite item please do comment below.

Lots of love
