It's all about the lace and midi skirt.

Buckle Boots - New Look / Patterned bag - Fiorelli
 
Hello fashion bloggers, hope you are all well? I felt dressing vintage today and the weather is starting to brighten up a little and thought I would push the boat out and dress up a little wearing this bright coral midi skirt that I just can't resist. This season I am in love with midi skirts and all things floral, colourful, patterns and more.

Lace is hot this season and always have been for me, you can either look and dress sophisticatedly, playful even dress up your outfit or dress down depending on whatever mood your in so keep an eye out for anything lace.

Now wearing boots with a dress can come across of being a bit in a pickle. Your outfit can go horribly wrong but the way I have matched this boyish buckle belt seems to work and partner with the shoes so I thought yeah why not give it a try mix and match with my style a bit adding that extra touch!

I am actually in love with this bag, the way it is designed by the patterns and its texture is divine, also big enough to fit practically anything inside.

Hope this has given you an idea, and that you take on board my advice, and check out my Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Bloglovin, and Lookbook.

OOTD.

 
 
Pompom hat - New Look / Denim Jacket - H&M / Dress - Primark / Scarf - H&M /
Satchel bag - Vintage Shop / Boots - New Look




Hello bloggers :) here is a nice mini post for you to look at today.

 For today's outfit I thought I would dress up casual and cosy, wearing a cute pompom hat, a floral scarf matching it with a cute skater dress also the same colour as my pompom hat, a denim jacket adds contrast and style also creating that lazy look, even though your wearing a dress this outfit will not make you feel dressed up.

I'm in love with my satchel bag as it is very vintage compared to the others I have seen around shops and particularly love this. Best way to find satchels would be visiting vintage shops or online.

For shoes why not mix up your outfit and wear healed booties than the normal flats.

My lifestyle at London Fashion Weekend / OOTD.



Hello Everyone, I am sorry I have posted this a bit late, been a very hectic weekend. As some of you may know who has read my current blog post. I attended London Fashion Weekend.

I have been given a press pass which allowed me free entry on any day of the event. I decided to go on Sunday with my family, and had access to watch the catwalk, which was amazing! However the catwalk was more promoting on Lilly Allen, showing clips of the Maybeline colour show nail varnishes, and Kendall Jenner at the Brit Awards.

 For the presenter they featured Angela Scanlon to present the catwalk and guide you through. The catwalk had four trends that they have featured and this lasted 30 minutes long. 

It included Precious Metals from Antonio Beradi, Balmain and Marni designers. This look added sparkles and glam to each of the outfit that the models have shown wearing. I found it very daring and adds a special vibe to every outfit.

Flower power designed by Erdem, Jonathan Saunders and Preen presented vibrant floral motifs that would definitely get you exited for the spring.

Lace Embrace designed by Christopher Kane, Diane von Furstenberg and Oscar de la Renta showed sheer chic clothing from tops dresses and skirts that are all so delicate and feature gorgeous textures.

And last but not least the catwalk finished off with a trend called Good Sport. It is a style designed by designers such as Alexander Wang, Peter Pilotto and Stella McCartney, The clothing style gave the shoulders a more broader look, but also feminine with the silhouettes outlined.

My favourite would be the flower power as I loved the collection and think it's a great style to be wearing and would definitely brighten my wardrobe. Watching the precious metal catwalk has also given me a more better understanding on how to match outfits with that particular look.

Here are now images of the catwalk trend. Sorry about the quality of the photographs not looking professional as I completely forgot to pack my camera as I'm such a mare and improvised using my cheeky I-phone. 

Catwalk Trends

Free pamphlets, discount cards, designer cards / Silver Ticket free Tote bag &goodies , card holder /
free Lav Azza Coffee.

Whilst touring Sommerset House the venue was exquisite giving you freebies of products to try out such as Lav Azza promoting their limited coffee, perfect for coffee lovers like me. They also had Muller light yoghurt the new mango flavour giveaways and beauty cereal bars in different flavours. And my favourite one of all was the Cannon company which allowed you to use props and have your photo taken at a 360 angle, also giving you Limited Edition Posters of House of Holland and Phoebe English.

The silver ticket came along with free Baby Lips and Essie nail varnishes alongside Label M hair products. 


London Fashion Weekend had amazing clothes from designers for you to look at, but unfortunately for me they were a bit out of my range and did not want to splash my money on insane prices for a clothing. Surprisingly for once I thought twice on whether to purchase an item. These are the shots I have taken of some of the displays they had on stall.




I also visited the Isabella Blow: Fashion Galore museum, now for me I'm not a museum fan, but when it came to this it had certainly grabbed my attention on the beautiful clothes that she has designed and collaborated with also knowing more information about her and Isabella's design. Unfortunately we were not allowed to take photographs inside the museum.



Tip for bloggers who attends next year, making a business card would be really helpful and ideal, you would be meeting many other fashion bloggers and might get an opportunity with a client. Here is an example of a business card that I have made.
My business card.


There are also talks about certain topics of fashion and makeover try outs for you to attend whilst looking around.

Over all London Fashion Weekend has a lot to offer, but only gives limited time of how long you can stay for.  and they choose what time you can go in for the catwalk show if you have decided to get tickets. For me I personally think that the event hours was not long enough to view everything. Time really did fly by! 

Now for most people you might wonder on what to wear for these type of events, luckily on my Instagram I have taken a browse on what the others have worn and decided to dress stylish and on trend. Most of the people that attended London Fashion Weekend did dress up and some guys actually turned up and worn suits, but it's OK to dress casually too. For me I couldn't dress up as much as I had to travel far, for people who do live in London this shouldn't be a problem. But I would advice you to feel comfortable on what you wear as you will be doing a lot of waiting and walking. Trust me!

OOTD - Outfit of the Day
Everything Leather.

Biker Jacket - H&M / Leather Top - Zara / Leather skirt - Primark / Floral Bag - Fiorelli / Buckle Boots - New Look.
I decided to wear all leather, and go for a rocker chic look for once instead of dressing up all girly. The top was my absolute favourite and with the three colours it added more colour and texture to the outfit, Wearing a raunchy dark purple lipstick adds a special touch to your make up. A brighter colourful bag stands out and will certainly grab attention from everything else. Wearing a comfy biker boots will definitely do the trick, you also cannot go wrong wearing a leather jacket to keep you warm.

Hope this has given you an idea of what London Fashion Weekend has to offer. Will keep you updated very soon on different Outfit of the day. Fashion bloggers stay alert!

Victoria's Secret fragrant mist.




This enchanting fragrant mist by Victoria's Secret, that I have purchased. Indulge your aroma with a beautiful collection that mesmerises you and capture your attention when they are on offer for 3 for £25, don't mind if I do. I got the eyes of a tiger, when it comes to good bargains.

Each of their fragrant mists, dissolves on your body giving it a distinct scent that is to die for. These four perfumes that I have taken a shot of, are my top picks out of all the collection they have in store.

Aqua kiss, this refreshing mist featuring: Aloe Vera and Chamomile, are one of mother nature's wonder, infusing with a rain kiss touch.

Pure seduction, one of the goddess' luxury potion, with a sweet, gentle Freesia and Red Plum to captivate your smell.

Secret Charm, to most of the Victoria's Secret Angels, the name of the fragrant says it all. And is the key to pure bliss with a formula of soft jasmine and that tasty honeysuckle.

Now, I saved the best for last and nothing can compete with the one and only Gilded Glow body mist. With gold fairy dust, sparkling. Whilst you spray on your body giving you that radiant effect. With a luscious smell of marigold and amber wood. It's like heaven in a bottle.

I just can't get enough of Victoria's Secret products because, it is one of the angels secret treasure. If this product did not exist my life would not be the same.

Joules Wellies.















Blue Glossy Wellies / Original Price £20 - Sale £10
Navy Blue Polka Dot / Original Price £37.95 - Sale £15
Wellie Socks / Original Price £24.95 - Sales £9.95
 
Hello bloggers :) Hope you are all well? When it comes to sale items no matter what they are. I feel the need that I need to purchase it. And for today I have brought these two Wellies from Joules that are super cute. I guess when Festivals come along I will be ready.

Joules was established by a British company. Providing outdoor clothing that are all dainty and floral. For their wellies, they carry out a selection of different designs and colours for you to choose.

I particularly like these wellies compared to the cheap ones at different stores because the fitting of the wellies around your calf claims to be a perfect fit. With most wellies they tend to be really baggy and bulky. For me it is not my cup of tea to be prancing around feeling uncomfortable walking in baggy wellies.

Joules Wellies feature rubber lining for extra strength and grip, added toe springs for more comfort when you're out and about, and also built to last.

I have also decided to buy special socks to wear for your wellies that are extra soft and warm at the sale that they are holding. But hurry quickly while stocks last for these items as I have managed to get the last pair in these designs that are my size.

Thanks for taking a sneak peak at my blog. Enjoy the rest of your day, That's all for now!

Varsity.


 
Jacket - Topshop / Stripe Top - H&M
 Skort - Zara / Converse - Schuh.
 
Hey blogger fans, hope you are all well?

New post on the blog that I thought I would share. This outfit is all about going Varsity. Now who would have thought wearing a skort would look fabulous with this outfit and look great together? Guess you don't have to look too boyish towards this look and have fun mixing it up, adding a girly touch with a cute pair of frilly socks to go with your converse.

 The whole black and white, works well you won't even have to worry about outfits clashing together. However matching an outfit too much can go horribly wrong. But this look is spot on. Why don't you give it a go?

That's all for now, will keep you updated very soon.

Clinique facial care.




Hello Everyone, this is my review on this brand new Clinique product that I have purchased yesterday at Debenhams shop.

I have brought the middle item and is a clarifying lotion, which is a liquid substance. You apply this, by dabbing onto a cotton wool and gently massaging your face; it removes all the excess dirt leaving your skin refreshed and soft.

The next bottle, is the Clinique face wash soap; now I was told that you can either use the bar soap or this liquid bottle soap dispenser. I decided to go for the dispenser rather than the soap, because I think that it would be much better and easier for me to use. But hey, everyone's different. Try out and see which one you prefer?

The yellow bottle is a face lotion, in which you can use on your face and neck. After using this, I feel that my face is radiantly glowing and a lot brighter looking than before and it adds more colour to my skin.

The goodies on your left, were for free and part of a bonus treat- never been so happy receiving free goodies and trying out samples that are brand new. It came with: four set eye-shadow, lipstick chubby stick, high impact mascara, moisture surge CC cream and the two that I have purchased on a bigger bottle.

On your right corner, is also a free Clinique tote bag to put your brand new items inside.

 A beautician had asked to book me in for an appointment to keep track on how well my face is going and to see if it has improved; this applies to all clients- I felt very welcome as a customer- they adviced me on a lot of information about their products. They also inform you on what is best suitable for your skin.

 All Clinique products are tested against animals and have been dermatology proven; they do this by marking their face care 1-4, which has different chemicals that targets your skin perfectly.

Hope you had a nice day, and enjoy reading my blog post, will keep you updated very soon!

Aussie Madness. (Hair Therapy)

Aussie Products.
Hello beauty bloggers,

Are you tired of trying out every solution to keep that healthy shine, volume and that natural moist your always after wanting your hair to be left silky smooth, well..

Aussie products are here to rescue I have had the same problem trying out all different hair products, but this has not failed me, as you can see I went all out and selected both shampoo and conditioner. With the bigger bottle the price is reasonable too lasts a lot longer and cheaper than paying for the smaller bottle.

With each different hair solution it features natural Australian remedies, to repair your hair or to restore, this is what gives your hair the natural gloss, shine and volume. Other hair products use chemicals, but if your not aware those chemicals are sometimes bad and can damage your hair a little, that's why using natural hair products at most times is vital.

They also have other range of hair products to suit your hair type, but the ones I have posted on the above picture is what best suites me.

Now you won't have to worry about damaging your hair using the straighteners and curlers as the Aussie products are here to rescue and restore natural luscious hair for you.
