BLOG CATCH UP: V Festival

OK, so I haven't blogged in forever, but I really miss it! I've been so caught up with going to University and stuff that I literally haven't had time. I though for a few posts I would just catch up on stuff I haven't blogged about over the summer and stuff, but I will be starting to do this properly for sure!

So this is just a post about V Festival, which I went to for one day this year, it was amazing. I went with my boyfriend as he treated me to the tickets! I will just show you my outfit, and a few pics of people we saw.

I wore my Topshop shorts, with a Topshop top. I put a belt with it as I wanted to break it up a little bit. My sandals are from Primark, I seriously can't believe I got to wore sandals to a festival! My bag is quite old from H&M, and finally my sunglasses are from ASOS.

Below are just a couple of pictures of who we saw, as my camera isn't too good most of them were blurry!

Thank you for reading, and you will definitely see more posts soon!

Lots of love

London 2012 - A day at the Olympics

Finally! I have had some time to start posting again! I know I haven't for ages but I have lots of stuff to blog about so there will at least be a couple coming up!

So my boyfriend was lucky enough to get tickets for the athletics t the Olympics. I was so excited to go!! I really got into all the sports, even some that I didn't think I would get into!

It was really hot over the Olympics so I wore shorts, but I got an olympics top to wear!

My sandals are from Topshop, but I would say at least 2 years old. My shorts are also from Topshop. My top is from Debenhams, but I think it might be sold elsewhere as it was part of the official merchandise, but I'm not 100% sure about that. My necklace is from Topshop too!

So here's just some random pictures that I took on the day. If you have a chance to go to the olympic park to go around or to see the Paralympic games then I would definitely recommend it!

Thanks for reading, 

Lots of love,

Ascot, a day at the races

So on the Saturday of Royal Ascot I got to go! I was literally so excited, even though I did get up feeling rough from prom! But overall it turned out to be such a good day! I had a maxi dress that I was going to wear but at the last minute I changed my mind. So this was my outfit...

Me & Alex

So this is what I decided to wear! My dress is from Topshop, the shoes are from New Look (but I had to change as they were killing!), the belt I'm not too sure as it is old, and finally the hat is from Warehouse. I didn't really know what sort of hat or fascinator to wear, but I'm glad I went for this simple one as I think it was only around £16, and it's something I can wear again.

My makeup is MAC face and body, benefit blusher, a mixture of the Urban Decay Naked pallet, and finally on my lips is a mixture of MAC Costa Chic, and L'oreal 301 Dating Coral.

Keep looking for my Harry Potter post!

Prom ♥

So last Friday was my prom! I had a few dresses which I couldn't decide on, but in the end I decided this one.

The dress is from Miss Selfridge, I really like the length of it as it's a little bit shorter than most (probably as I'm tall) but it showed the shoes really well. The belt is from Primark, the bag is from 2 years ago from Topshop, and shoes are from Next but are quite old also. 

For my hair I used the Enrapture Totem Styler to curl my hair to begin with. I then twisted it around to the side where there was no sleeve on the dress, and just clipped it with grips. 

I was lucky enough to get my sister to do my makeup. For the foundation I used Estee lauder double wear. I really liked trying something different with my base makeup as I normally go for the MAC face + body. For my bronzer I used NARS laguna, and blusher MAC fleur power, and Dior amber diamond highlight. My eyeshadow was a mixture of Urban Decay Naked pallet. My lipstick was Girl About Town by MAC. 

It was such a good night to finish the end of the year! 

This weekend was my Prom, Ascot and Harry Potter studio Tour so keep looking for my posts on that!

Thanks for reading.

Blog catch up!

So I haven't done a post in ages so this is a collective blog of all my outfits for recent/old parties that I haven't yet showed you.

This first party was a house party, I never really know how to dress, casual or dressed up!?! I just don't know..... Anyway, I went for my skater skirt shown in my previous blog from Topshop, and the skull tank top which is also from Topshop. For my hair I used the Enrapture totem styler.

For the next party I wore a plain black dress from boohoo with a leopard print belt from Primark, which was only £1! The boots are from h&m. The lipstick I wore for this and the previous party is YSL- Rouge Volupte.

Me and my best friend xxxx

Lastly this outfit was on a night out! The leopard print playsuit is from Motel, although I got it from ASOS on sale for only £18! What a bargain :-) The heels are from Topshop.  I actually went for pink lips which is a change considering I normally go for red, the colour is MAC- Pink Nouveau. I wore my hair up in a doughnut, to give my bun a fuller look.

I've got some really exciting things coming up which I'm definitely going to blog about so keep a look out for that, but thanks for reading.

Hell Yeah F***ing Right - Drake concert

I was extremely lucky to be able to go and see Drake with one of my sisters. One of my other sisters was going with her boyfriend but gave me and my other sister a ticket. It was literally amazing!! I can't actually describe how good it was, I love Drake, probably a little too much.

This is what I wore; my shirt is a bargain from Primark! It was only £10, but I really needed some retail therapy so I went to Primark and this was my best buy - I love the embellished collar. also my sunglasses are from Primark and were only £2! My jeans are the usual leigh jeans from Topshop, and my sandals are from Topshop.

Labrinth was supporting Drake and although I heard the day before people didn't think he was good I think he was really good! These are just some pictures of the concert:

Can we fix it, yes we can!

A couple of weeks ago I had one of my best friend's birthday parties. The theme was 'What did you want to be when you were growing up?'. I have always wanted to be a teacher but how can you really dress up as a teacher? So my other friend wanted to be a builder (don't ask why!), so I dressed up with her as a builder. I think we looked really cool, as we didn't go for the predictable slutty (in other words gross) outfit.

I just thought I'd put in this picture to show my hair and makeup, even though I did change my makeup and made it a little more interesting after this! I really liked the lashes I wore, they were eyelure lashes. The curler I used to curl my hair was Enrapture totem styler. It's my sisters and they say it's quite expensive but if you try and currys or places they got it for £50. 

My outfit overall cost me about £15. My hat, tool belt, and reflective was all from ebay. I wore high-top converse which were my sisters. I'm definitely going to get some though! My shorts are my hot pants from Topshop, they're nice as they fade from pink to blue. The white vest top I have on is an old one from Topshop.

I seriously will start doing posts more often!!
Lots of Love
