Christenings




Today i went to my little cousins christening and i thought it would be a great opportunity to blog so here i am. The service started at 12:30pm just after the Sunday service and it ran smoothly, Corey was on his best behaviour in his little christening outfit, even if he did look like the marshmallow man from Ghostbusters haha! Afterwards we went to a little venue by the lakeside and had some drinks and a BBQ, it was a really lovely day for it even if it were a little windy. 

To start off with my black and white Kate Middleton inspired dress is from Romwe, It is a cheap and in my opinion a so much more prettier alternative for the Topshop one that they had in not too long ago. My chunky platform nude and black heels are from Topshop and i am so glad i was able to show these off once again as i hadn't worn them since prom, even if i can still barely walk in them they add a little splash of colour to my outfit. The white frilly socks that i decided to pair with them are also, of course, from Topshop. My simple black clutch with a bow like detailing is from Accessorize, the fact that it is black which is such a universal colour means that i can pair this with almost any nighttime or casual outfit. My silver ring is from Pandora and my simple silver banded watch is from Gucci. I also kept my nail varnish quite simple with Barry M's "Nude" which just so happens to be one of my go to nail varnishes at the moment.

Tangy Tangerine




Hello everyone, i'm so sorry i haven't posted on here for a while i have been drowning in college work for the past couple of weeks and i simply couldn't find any time to do it.

But here i am about to do my first review on a nail polish i picked up yesterday from Boots for a mere £2.99. Boots are offering a "buy one get one half price" deal on at the moment and i just couldn't resist getting this much needed nail polish and a few more bits and bobs. This is in the colour "Tangy Tangerine" by Rimmel London's lasting finish collection. Orange is my most favoured must have colour at the moment and i just couldn't pass getting this exquisite shade. This nail polish is supposedly suppose to give you a "lasting finish" to your nails and i have to say i applied this to my nails yesterday and as of yet there is not a chip in sight. I a applied two coats and instantly the colour was opaque and glossy almost no need for a top coat. This is my second nail varnish that i have purchased from this collection and i have to say i will be wondering back into boots and utilising their buy one get one half price deal to buy many more!

Thank you for reading!

Re enrollment and Costa








Today i re enrolled at college which was all a bit of a kerfuffle once again, things can never go smoothly for me i tell you. Anyway, afterwards my Grandparents decided to treat me to a Costa coffee where i had my usual small hot chocolate and cream which is simply divine i have to say. Next i went on the hunt for a new sketchbook for my A2 photography course but i somehow ended up in USC and i couldn't resist a few little bargains.

Today i went for a very 60's vibe i feel with keeping my outfit pretty much all monochrome which is what i am loving at the moment. The loose fitting white cropped cami that i am wearing is an essential in my eyes and is from Topshop, a girl cannot have enough cami's. My lovely nautical-esque black and white stripped skater skirt is from River island and was a steal for a mere £10. The bag that i have paired with my outfit today is my beloved floral print Cath Kidston bag that i feel i can pair with almost anything in one way or another. I thought i would give my outfit a bit of colour by wearing my pink maxi Juju jellies that are slowly becoming my new favourite shoes to just sling on.

Finally my nail varnish is the usual "Blueberry" by Barry M which i thought would give my look that bit more colour along with my shoes. And my ring is my precious Pandora ring that i got for my birthday.
