Feeling Fierce!



When I was out shopping I couldn't resist going into Pull and Bear... They've really upped their game in my eyes! The item I've tried on is a lion print sweatshirt and I had to tuck it into my shorts as they're quite high waisted - but even so I thought it looked pretty good :)


The material is a teeny bit see-through - so I'd advise a bandeau / dark coloured vest top underneath, but its still surprisingly cosy! Regretting not buying it...

What are your wardrobe essentials? Do you like Pull and Bear?

A Little Splurge...


So, I've neglected this blog for a while... Time to update!

On Saturday I went shopping (surprise there) and finally splurged on my first ever Benefit product!

(pictured: Revlon Just Bitten Balmstain in Cherish - so yummy on the lips and looks great too!)

I had such a lovely experience with the counter lady (whatever you call them) and after asking to get her to test the product on me, she seemed all too happy to get me onto a wee barstool style seat. The product was "High Beam" - a lovely satin pink highlighter and she showed me where/how to apply it. She also thought I'd had my eyebrows shaped somewhere (I just tweeze strays) and said they were a lovely shape - I felt so proud hehe :)
Back to the product... once she applied it onto the apples of my cheeks, a little on my chin and bridge of my nose I could tell I was gonna buy it! At £18.50 its justifiable when you think how long it'll last! I forgot to take a photo of me wearing it :( but they gave me a sample moisturiser too, which feels great on my skin but doesn't last as long as I thought it might - but then again I have really dry skin!

lust-have!


I'm thinking Topshop is trying its hardest to make my debit card and I go weak at the knees.. 


To buy or not to buy?
That's my dilemma. Should I invest £30 into these acid wash beauties - I mean I can carry them all the way to Summer because I could wear them with or without tights and due to the style they'll go with most tops!

They're just so beautiful. 

On another lustful note.. check out this Pull&Bear tshirt - IT HAS AUDREY HEPBURN ON IT! 

You have no idea how long I've been craving a Hepburn printed tee, well here it is on the website.. I need this so much. 

 wowowow ❤

The time me and my best mate swapped clothes hehe, I love hers even though I don't suit the leather jacket :(

She's my style inspo right now because she really works the soft grunge style!

What's your favourite style? who inspires you?

What I'm wearing (on the right) : 
Leather jacket - Topshop
White peace tee - Topshop
Black shorts - Topshop

What she's wearing (on the left) :
Quilted jacket - Primark
Star jumper - Next
Acid wash jeans - New look

sale shopping spree!


picked this army jacket up in the Christmas sales (which I usually despise with a passion) in Republic! 

I absolutely adore the prominent silver metal studs on the shoulders, they just bring the jacket right up to soft grunge for me. the over-sized fit (may be my own fault, usually size 6/8 but I got a 10) makes it extra cosy!
army jacket - Republic, was £50, bought at £25

this photo isn't the best quality but oh well. i liked my outfit for christmas shopping last weekend so here it is!

these are a few of my favourite things...







seeing as im new, i thought i'd better give you an idea of who i am, so what better than to show you some of the stuff that makes me tick!

1. my grey boots : got these a month or so ago from New Look. they give me just a little bit of extra height (not that i really need it) and i just feel so good wearing them!

2. my perfume : Marc Jacobs-Dot 100ml. i totally adore the scent and its just so fresh and sweet but not too overpowering

3. River Island : this shop is just too perf for words.. i seriously need more money so i can actually afford everything in there.

4. collecting things from my holidays : little souvenirs make me so happy and remind me of all the memories from when i was there :)

5. my camera : Nikon Coolpix s3100 - had this little beauty for just over a year and it keeps fuelling my love for photography ❤

6. Tom Daley : don't even need to explain tbh
