Autumn Leaves

As summer comes to an end, and autumn starts to show its leaves, my wardrobe insanity comes to an end. Say goodbye to the super bright colours. Goodbye to the crazy prints. And goodbye to the ‘leaving the house without a jacket’ moments.

My wardrobe has officially become boring again. However… don’t you fear I have a new fashion obsession to share today!!!! Et voila! Here it is!

 This time I was inspired by the colour leaves turn as they leave their green state; a lovely burgundy/orangey colour; the colour of fire, love and dark secrets. And so this mood board was born.

As you can see the overall outfit looks sexy but tough at the same time. You can wear it in the morning to college/work/interview stuff, then swap the sneakers for some hot heels and open up the jacket to reveal the lovely see through chiffon for a sexier, edgier evening look.

The makeup that you wear with this look would also determine the overall feel and persona you give off to people; for the day I would keep it natural with some foundation and gloss, but later on in the day I would apply some black eyeliner and generous amounts of mascara, followed by some deep red/burgundy lipstick.

Personally I would only wear this outfit if I had something going on in the evening and had no time to go home and change.  If I wanted to make the look more casual I would instead swap the dress for some black jeans and a cute panda shirt! naww pandas!

The dress I chose was from HM (Dress with chiffon details), the jacket you can find practically anywhere, (I found this gorgeous one just last week in a market! woop for bargain buys!), the bag from Deichman and the shoes from All-star.

So what has been your fashion obsession lately? would you ever wear this outfit?

Monthly fashion obsession #2

HELLO! I figured it was time I did another fashion obsession post, not because my last obsession has finished, but because I can feel my brain switching its self to summer and bright colour mode! (Even though it’s still cold outside In England… sad times...)

Most of the things I am going to mention are from H&M, SO BE WARNED.  The first thing on my list is this beautiful colourful Aztec print tube top (from H&M), that’s only £4.99,which is great because you can mix and match it with loads of things to add a pop of colour and craziness to the outfits!

I have chosen to pair this beautiful top, with Harem pants (also from H&M), because I feel it complements the tight top, and makes the outfit look a bit less stiff and formal, and a bit more comfy and playful. Those beautiful sandals (can you guess were from? you guessed it right... H&M!), and that matching bag (this time from peacocks), I think go so well with the outfit, and just scream summer to me!

And lastly, a simple shrug for when it gets chilly, some bangles (bracelets) and a beautiful nail varnish to polish it all off… get it… nail POLISH… hahahaha...

Anyways… what have you been obsessing over lately? Would you ever wear this outfit?

APRIL FAVOURITES!!

 Wow April has really gone by fast (and I’m not saying that because I’m pretending to be older and wiser, but because it actually has!). April represents so many wonderful things, like the sun and being able to walk out of the house without a jacket, at last!

For my favourites this month I only have some small bits and bob which you can find anywhere on the high street, and nothing too fancy. The first product is something I don’t actually own YET but I’m planning to get very soon. It’s this AMAZING Barry M nail polish in papaya, which is the perfect pastel-peachy-nude colour for the summer/April/jacketless weather!

The next thing is this ‘forever living’ lip balm which I am ADDICTED to right now. It has the most amazing consistency ever and last for the whole day, unless you lick it off (obviously). These are quiet hard to get by, but I’m sure you can order them online with the rest of their amazing products.

The last two products I’ll talk about in this post is the ‘simple’ toner and light moisturizer, which I use every day (and have been using for the last year and a half, I think!). They are truly the most amazing lightweight face products I have EVER used. They are amazing for tweens and teens that are just starting to form a daily face care routine and want something light, effective and easy to apply. The consistencies are amazing and the products contain no perfume, no colour and no harsh chemicals so it doesn’t harm the skin and makes it great for those with sensitive skin. They are also enriched with vitamin B5 (which restores, soften and soothes skin), chamomile, witch hazel (which tightens and closes pores) and allantoin (which soften and protects). Amazing huh?

Thanks for reading guys! Any favourites you want to rave about?Xxx

#1 monthly fashion obsession!

This month (in my slightly obsessive mind) is all about khaki greens and leather accessories. Maybe I’m a bit late for this trend but I have been in love with this sleeveless V-necked H&M dress; it’s so pretty and at an acceptable length! I find it feminine but a little bit tough, which is great for all those girls out there who aren’t all pink and fluffy!!

Continuing on with the ‘tough’ look I decided that it would go great with a cropped leather jacket, (which is far too expensive for me :( ), some black suede lace up shoe boots, a suede clutch, and lastly to ward off the non-existent British sun, tinted sunglasses!

Anyone else share my khaki green dress obsession? have you got any weird new fashion obsessions lately?
