My Birthday OOTD

Last Saturday I celebrated my 22nd birthday, I really liked my outfit so I thought I would share it with you guys as I don't do too many OOTD and they're actually one of my favourite things to read.

New Look necklace / Topshop crop top / Urban Outfitters skirt / New Look heels

I am in love with this skirt, I love roses (I have roses tattoo) and this skirt was just screaming at me to get it when I first saw it. I decided to pair it with a plain black crop because they're my favourite things to wear with high waisted stuff. The necklace I bought from New Look off one of their concession stands and I just loved the look of the 3 layered chains and knew it would complete my outfit. Lastly my heels are so comfy, they've got a really chunky heel which you cant really see but I literally wear them everytime I go out because I can last all night in these (even with me falling over every 2 mins)!

Lots of love,

HELLO 2014!

Happy New Year everybody! I am still in shock at how quick 2013 went. I definitely had a good year, I celebrated my 21st birthday in style with a massive party and was overwhelmed with how amazing my family & friends were. In April I decided to start this little blog after reading others and watching beauty videos on YouTube. Me & Scott also went on our first holiday just by ourselves back in September so that was pretty good :) All in all, I think I did have some good highlights. 

As for 2014... well, I'm not one to actually make New Years resolutions as I never keep them but for this year I am going to say I plan to become more organized and definitely concentrate on this blog more! I will also say I am going to get another tattoo! I love tattoos and 2013 saw no new tattoos so this year I am determined to get a new one :)

 I don't really want to ramble on too much as this is just a post to say Happy New Year and I am also going to show you what I wore for New Years Eve. We were invited to one of our friends parties; they had hired out the football club bar so it was a proper little party. There were a few tears shed as it struck midnight but it was a really good night. So here is my outfit! excuse the quality of my pictures they were taken on my phone.

Face wise I decided to go simple with Maybelline Gel Eyeliner & Eylure eyelashes in 101. I also decided on sporting a red lip which is Rimmel London Kate Moss in Kiss of Life (111).

 

Missguided top / Boohoo skirt / ChockersShoes.co.uk shoes / GC Watch

When I first tried on this crop top I was so disappointed as it was really scratchy but I powered through & wore it anyways and to be honest, as the night went on I noticed it less & less... maybe all the alcohol, who knows? I don't think you can really tell but my skirt is actually velvet & who doesn't love a bit of velvet? I realize I was running a risk clashing textures but I think they complimented each other quite well. Plus, I bought this skirt for an absolute bargain at just £10! Lastly, my shoes which were another massive bargain at just £15! ChockersShoes is the ultimate website if you want a new pair of shoes. They have all the designer steals for literally a massive bargain; I always buy new shoes from there. Delivery is always good as well, it only takes 2-3 days even if you order on the weekend!

So that's my outfit from New Years Eve; I was quite pleased with it because I decided I wanted to be a bit sparkly and even though the top was slightly uncomfortable I probably will wear it again! 

Again, Happy New Year to all you lovely people and I hope 2014 is a good year for you :) I have a feeling it is going to be a good one for me!

The Sunday Post: Monochrome & Leopard

Just a quick one but voila my outfit from last night. I'm not sure if you can get these items now as they're last season; maybe in the sale! Also, sorry about the rubbish quality this picture was taken on my phone! My lace top & floral textured trousers are both from Topshop and my leopard print Jeffrey Campbell dupe shoe boots are actually from SoYouShoes. I got them for Christmas a couple of years ago and I still love them! My lipstick is Gothic Glam 2 by Collection and I think its amazing; makes me look quite pale but its such a nice colour. 

OOTD - 26.07.2013

 

Dress - Miss Selfridge

Belt - Off a dress from New Look

Bag - Satchel from Primark (which you cant really see)

Watch - GC

Necklace - Tiffany

Sandals - Primark

 

This was my outfit for Zoo Lates. This dress is one of those oversized smock dresses so I cinched it in at the waist a bit with a tan coloured belt to match my bag. Its such a comfy fit and a perfect length so it doesn't blow up over my head in the wind! I kept accessories to a minimum with just my GC watch and Tiffany necklace which I wear all day everyday. These sandals are usually comfy but traipsing around London Zoo for four hours they gave me blisters :(. Obviously, cant forget the giraffe ears which I picked up as soon as I got in the zoo! I think they just pull my whole outfit together, what do you think?

OOTD - 20.07.13

 

This is the outfit I wore Saturday night down in Kent for my friend Hannah's birthday which you can read all about here. I bought this dress from Topshop in the sale for a massive bargain of £15 - I cant find it on the website so im guessing that means its sold out? It did come in black, white & a peachy coral colour as well. The picture doesn't really show you the sides of the dress well but its got a floral cut out patch just on the ribs. Its so comfortable which was what I was looking for because I knew I would be dancing all night! The size im wearing is actually a 6 which I found super weird because im usually a 10 and didn't even realise it was a 6 until I had it on, very strange but the fit is perfect.

 

My necklace is also Topshop and I cannot find it on the website, sorry! It also comes it gold but I wanted something simple because my dress had the floral design & I didn't want something that took the attention away from that. My sandals are from Primark which I got last year and I love them so much, they're plastic so easy to clean and the little diamantes are so cute. My watch is GC which I got for Christmas and my ring is also Topshop - I got it a good few months back. Excuse the hairband on my wrist haha, the peace bracelet & red skull bead bracelet are Dirty Dolly which are a handmade jewellery company run by my friends Leoni, Shelly & Gemma. If you haven't heard of them definitely go check them out because they have amazing pieces & are purse friendly - win win! My silver ball bracelet I got for my birthday and I have no idea where its from, sorry!

Lastly, on my nails is Be Happy from Sinful Colours which I am so in love with at the moment.

OOTN 25.5.13

 

Couple of days late but I have had such a busy bank holiday! Saturday morning/afternoon I admit I didn't do much but I went out on Saturday night with my friend from work; we went to st albans and I will be talking about my outfit further down! I woke up Sunday feeling as rough as anything and had one of my friends baby shower to be at! I didn't properly get out of bed till quarter to 12 so had to rush home and get ready - turned out to only be 10 minutes late, woop! The baby shower was such good fun and it was the first time I had ever been to one, but I had a really good time. We played a few games, ate ALOT of food (I was still full up by the time I got into bed at midnight!), and watched the mummy to be open all her gifts! It was such an emotional day but I did well to hold the tears in haha! After the baby shower a few of us decided to meet our semi-drunk boyfriends at the pub! Me being hung over stayed sensible and didn't drink as not only was I suffering from a pounding headache I was so full up cos I'd eaten twice my body weight in food... Anyways I think we stayed at the pub till about 8pm and we then went back to one of my other friends house and watched tele, everyone carried on drinking but me and we played with her pet lizards Spike & Mandy! It was a really enjoyable evening and it was a nice way to spend a Sunday.

 

Onto my Saturday outfit!:

White lace crop top - Topshop

High waisted black Joni jeans - Topshop

Red Lace-up wedges - SoYouShoes.co.uk

Watch - GC

Rings - Topshop

 

I'm sorry but I've got a go out after I post this so I haven't got the time to find the items online haha! I was really happy with my choice of outfit although by the end of the night my feet were ready to drop off! These Joni jeans are my second pair because the pair I had actually turned out to be faulty, they had white stitching showing at the sides & there was a great big pull across my thigh so I exchanged them for another pair. These ones I'm wearing in the picture actually have more of a legging feel than a denim feel - its almost like they've reworked the whole jean because I know the original Joni jeans have had a few faults with them. I also had to go a size down because they're so unbelievably stretchy and are just so figure hugging I didn't even bother trying on the size 10 (which I am normally).

 

Hope you all enjoyed your bank holiday weekend :)

Have a good week.
