Summer Lovin': High Street Favourites #11

Happy Tuesday!

So on this extremely dull summers day I thought there's nothing like a bit of online shopping to help ease the harsh reality that our summer may of already come and gone! For those of you who aren't from the UK we get about 5 or 6 days of hot weather here which for me is enough, my body has become immune to the cold hence my love for anything autumnal! I'm all for the baggy jumpers, black jeans and a sassy little hat and scarf combo to get me on my way.  Looking out of my living room window right now is making me ridiculously envious of you lucky little buggers going away this summer so I thought I'd get back into the swing of things with another high street favourites post for ya'll!

Paisley Midi Skirt - River Island

Khaki Sleeveless Blazer - New Look

Khaki Wrap Cami - Miss Selfridge

Cat Eye Sunglasses - Miss Guided

Pointed Snake Skin Heels - Public Desire

Rounded Shoulder Bag - H&M

Printed Tote Bag - River Island

If any of you know me you'll know I'm not a big advocate of colour in my wardrobe even though I try and try.. hence the not so bright summer colours! I'd say these picks are definitely for a summers evening or when that make believe of mine boyfriend takes mefor a romantic meal on the sea front..

That paisley skirt just gives me shivers up my spine thinking about my love for it!

Hope i've given you a lil' help with choosing some pieces for your summer wardrobe.

Valentines Day: High Street Favourites #10

To kick off this month I thought I'd put together a little collection of my favourite valentines day pieces that i've seen online and on the high street. These aren't necessarily matching just a few little things that have caught my eye!

Back to December: High Street Favourites #9

Good morning! ♥

I've been in such a good mood recently and I can't think of a reason why, but all I know is I hope I can stay like this during the next few weeks! I think it could be me getting into the festive spirit, I started my Christmas shopping and the thought of buying presents for other people and the look on their face when they open them has got to be one of my favourite parts of Christmas! Everything is starting to come together and I know that as soon as Christmas is over, it'll be the New Year and the thought of the unknown makes me extremely excited, these past 12 months have been some of the most exciting, upsetting, craziest times of my life and even though a lot has changed next year will bring me new and more exciting things! So a lot to look forward to.. roll on 2015!!

I haven't done a high street favourites post in a few weeks but I'm back now and I have a bajillion ideas running through my head for new blog posts and oohhh it's just very very titillating!

Now that I have a whole week off I'm planning on spending the majority of that spooning my quilt with some sweets, a laptop, a unhealthy amount of Chuck Bass and a million online shopping baskets full of new clothes - I literally couldn't be in a happier place!

Autumn is like the Sunday of Summer: High Street Favorites #4

Back again with my 4th installment of the 'High Street Favorites' and I think this one is probably my favorite.. if that makes sense, I know they're all favorites but this one is at the top for me at the moment! I adore everything on it. I chose all quite minimalist colors for this just because I love my Autumn wardrobe to be quite subtle and not really bright and in your face, that's what Summer's for I think! I'm definitely hoping to get most of these things just because every single one of them suits my style so well!

Leather Jacket - Topshop

Mini Messenger Bag - ZARA

Leather Ankle Boots - ASOS

Plaid Shirt - New Look

Smock Dress - MissGuided

Black Mini Skirt - River Island

Rhinestone Necklace - ZARA

I think I've possibly fell in love with everything on this post, especially that leather jacket, round of applause for Topshop! *clapping hands emoji*

Let me know if any of these tickle your fancy!

*Autumn Days*: High Street Favorites #3

Hello there beauties!

Back again with the third installment of my high street favorites! (oooo) 

I've realized that this is starting to become a weekly ritual just because I spend so much time online and looking at clothes (how exciting is my life?!) I find myself choosing my favourite things from that week and putting them into my overly priced basket that just keeps getting bigger and BIGGER!

As it's coming to the end of Summer, how depressing.. I've starting looking at clothes that I can wear for Autumn.

Fun fact of the day: I LOVE AUTUMN. I love jumpers and wool coats and boots.

But because Summer isn't completely over, well hopefully.. This weeks favorites are a mix of both!

Floral Culottes - Topshop

Fluffy jumper - River Island
Floral Shorts - Very (Love Label)
Printed Shirt - Zara
Leather Boots - Zara
Floral Co-Ord - Top & Shorts  - New Look

Just a note to whoever brought culottes back into fashion, THANK YOU!!
Let me know in the comments what your favourite things to wear in Autumn are :)

REVIEW: MAC Twig

Hello again!

I thought I'd do a little something different today for you lovely lot so I've decided to do a review on a new lipstick that I am completely and hopelessly in love with, sad I know. I recently went into the MAC store in Liverpool, now I'm not normally one for MAC makeup but I've been loving their matte lipsticks recently and one by one my collection just seems to be growing and I can't see myself stopping anytime soon! I went in for a new lip liner after searching the internet for Kylie Jenner's exact lip color, luckily for me.. she decides to change it every week, woop dee doo! I finally settled for Velvet Teddy by MAC a few weeks ago after seeing that it was probably the closest I was going to get. 

So on this trip like I said I went in for a lip liner but again found myself lurking around the lipstick stand and this color just caught my eye! I actually love it. It doesn't make my lips feel dry like a lot of drug store lipsticks and as well, it LASTS!! I've worn this on shift in work for about 8/9 hours and it's lasted me all the way through, I think I only had to apply it twice but that's good enough for me! I've found with MAC lipsticks as well they appear to make my lips look bigger, as if I've had botox for the past 10 years, I'm not complaining though, the bigger the better! 

I just thought I'd share my views on this lippy & if you love it, go buy ittttt! It's so worth it.

Or if you fancy buying it online, here's the link!

Birthday Wishlist: Miss Guided!

Hellooooo

Seeing as i'm turning 20 on Wednesday I thought I'd do a little post on a few different outfits I've been debating for my birthday and because I've been loving (stalking) miss guided's website recently I thought I'd put together a few little outfits I found on there that I could wear throughout the day as well as the night time!

My first one was this adorable little dress, I saw it and well, it's hard to know what the weather's going to be like next week here in England I mean one minute it's sweltering hot and the next it's raining, what the hell!?!? I also loved the fedora hat the model's wearing on the photo, and because I do love me a good hat I thought mine and this dress would be perfect along with some little boot heels or sandals!

It's so fricking cute & If you fancy purchasing it you can get it here!

So my second look is more for the day time I think (depending on the weather), but paired with some heels I could definitely wear this for the night. The shorts are so pretty and I fell in love with the pattern as soon as I saw them and the scallop hemmed top just goes so well. I bought a black choker online recently as well so I was thinking that along with some sandals & a little pouch bag! 

To buy the shorts you can get them here and the top here!

This third one is probably my favorite outfit out of them all! Seems as I'm getting old(ish) I think this outfit is perfect, it's so vintage looking and classic with a little modern twist on it!

The colors are so summery and pastel is by far one of my favorite color trends this year! The skirt, well I fell in love as soon as I clicked onto it.. how can you not love the color and just everything about it?? I've been looking around for a statement necklace to go with this as well but so far I've had no luck :( 

You can find the skirt here, the top here and the shoes here!

Finally, my last outfit well.. I thought it's definitely a night time one. I was looking at this dress a few weeks ago for a friends birthday but couldn't make my mind up whether I liked it or not. I thought I'd probably look like something from an Austin Powers movie..

Now I know that these type of shoes aren't everybody's cup of tea but I love them, I feel like Carrie Bradshaw from Sex In The City in them & I love it!

You can find the dress here & the shoes here.

Hopefully you've enjoyed this post & by the time that it's my birthday hopefully I would've found an outfit. Keep an eye out for my birthday OOTD which I'll probably be posting on the Weekend!

Thanks for reading <3
