MORE BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS


WHAT I WORE:
Crop Top - Topshop
Trousers - ASOS
Heels - Faith at Debenhams
Bag - Michael Kors

This is such a versatile crop top, that I just had to pick it up! It's from Topshop and they have it in other colours too, my best friend has the green which is really beautiful, and I believe there is also a dark red/ burgundy colour. I wore it with my favourite trousers, I picked to wear these quite tactically as I knew I would be eating LOTS of food, so a tight skirt would not be the best idea! And then I wore them with my stroppy sandal heels. ALSO please say you noticed the beautiful Michael Kors bag on my shoulder?!? This was a birthday gift from my boyfriend's family, it is beautiful! Finally my lipstick is Diva by MAC.

WHAT I ATE:
We decided to go to Dolce Vita, which is in Reading. The food was amazing, and would highly recommend going there! It is a little bit more pricey than some restaurants, but extremely worth it. Obviously I had 3 courses! First off was the asparagus with poached egg and a tomato based sauce, then chicken and mushroom risotto, and finally sticky toffee pudding! 

Hope you are all having a wonderful Christmas period, I can't wait! 

Lots of love,
Alice

MY BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS






I AM NOW 21!!! 

These are some pictures of when I celebrated my birthday in Portsmouth on Thursday! I had such a good time! Every year I've got to celebrate my birthday with my best friend Emma as her birthday is the 15th! It's actually so nice to celebrate it together! We had some people over for pre-drinks, then we went out clubbing.

The skirt I wore is the same as the pink one I've posted about previously. I really like the shape/style of the skirt, as I think it is quite flattering for my body shape. The crop top I think is a must have to have in your wardrobe, as it will literally go with anything, but has a really nice shape to it. Finally my boots are my good ol' new look ones, which I wear daily (another great buy). 

I also celebrated my birthday with my family, and will post about it soon! 

Lots of love,

SOPHISTICATED DINNER PARTY CELEBRATION







OUTFIT: 
Crop Top - New Look (bought from ASOS)
Trousers - ASOS
Heels - Primark (old)
Clutch - ASOS
So I have never been to a 'dinner party' before so what do you wear? After chatting to my girls a lot of them were going to wear the midi style dress, which I absolutely love, but it just doesn't fit well on me, so I went for these high wasted trousers, and this really lovely crop top. I am so glad these pieces fitted as it was a last minute ASOS shop a couple of days before! The shoes are old, but I knew I would never wear them on a night out, so a night sitting down would be a perfect time to wear them!! haha. 

MAKEUP AND HAIR:
Eyeshadow - MAC Antiqued, MAC Handwritten
Lips - MAC Rubywoo
I can't remember the hair tongs name, but a big barrelled curling tong will do the trick!
I am so lucky to have my sisters to do my hair and my makeup for me! The hair style I wanted to go for was 50's style waves.. they didn't turn out completely as hoped, but the side parting, and waves towards my face did the trick! I know this picture of my makeup is terrible, but I thought I would add one in anyway. The eyeshadow was gorgeous and completely different colour to what I'm used to wearing for a nightout. The Antiqued colour is a copper bronze kind of colour, this was used with Handwritten (also from MAC), which was used in the outer corners, and is a matte brown. 

THE NIGHT:
The night was amazing! It was to celebrate one of my best friends 21st (Otis, 3rd picture down). It was really nice to do something other than a night out with all of my closest friends.  His mum did all the cooking, (A THREE COURSE DINNER!!) which was extremely tasty! Everyone made such an effort; the girls looked gorgeous and the boys looked extremely dapper, and was just an absolutely delightful evening!

I really need to start planning my 21st, I just have no ideas, and not sure I can top this one!

Love Alice

A BEST FRIENDS 21ST






Top - H&M
Skirt - River Island
Heels - Faith At Debenhams

Last weekend myself and my Uni girls went back to my best friend's- Melissa's- home town (Seer Green), to celebrate her birthday. The weekend was AMAZING. Her parents hired out a hot tub, we had a takeaway, we went to the crazy bear (posh restaurant) and had a glorious cocktail, and then went out; we really packed it in! The hot-tub was so good, I'm now thinking I want to hire one for my birthday! 

I didn't really know what to wear on the night out, so I went shopping and found this gem of a skirt in River Island. It was only £25 which I thought was pretty good, so thought I had to buy it. The top is part of my co-ord set, but it went really nicely with the skirt! Finally my heels, which actually didn't kill my feet, which was a rather nice surprise considering I do not ever wear heels! 

Any ideas how I can celebrate my 21st that's coming up soon?
