November/December Favorites!

1) Maybelline Fit Me! Foundation
I love how its not too thick and extreameley easy to apply, i don't need a lot of it (about a pump) and it stays on all day. The only thing is it does get shiny throughout the day but so far i haven't found a foundation which doesn't do that to my oily skin. I brought it in shade 120 but i think i might try shade 110 next time as it makes my skin slightly darker than it is. 




2) Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection concealer
Its so cheap!!! (only £4) and it covers so well! Sometimes i wear it just on its own and people cant tell i've even got anything on. I only recently tried the miracle that is concealer but since i tried it (my first one was maybelline) i cant get enough of it! I got this in the shade Light and it matches my skin tone perfectly (i'm quite pale)  it's very easy to apply and gives you a natural look, great for when you don't feel like putting on makeup.






3)Topshop Lipstick- Called up
I absolutely adore this shade for the winter! Its the most beautiful berry colour i've ever seen with the slightest tint of dark red in it. Its quite a loud colour so if your more of a nude or neutral lipstick kind of girl then this shade probably wont be for you, but they have a lot more colours which would be great as well. Its reasonably priced at £8 and as a matte lipstick applys very easily.It lasts for an average amount of time, not the whole day but long enough between meals (as it comes off when you eat/drink)                                    




4) Tartan
At the moment im in love with everything and anything tartan!! The red brings out the festive Christmas feeling although its such a versatile print you'll be able to wear it throughout the year.It looks super cute and i cant wait to wear it out






Love youuuuuuu!!!

Monochrome!!

Hello you gorgeous people! spring is here! i know that for all you people in the UK right now you aren't having such great weather...last year it was 21*C and now its like 2!!!!! however I am still in high hopes that the good weather is coming very soon so i have some monochrome for you guys!!

Monochrome is a big trend this spring so ive got some advice for you :)

1)stripes: if your short vertical stripes can make you look taller,it works for parts of the body aswell so if yu want to elongate your legs try a vertical stripe skirt :) . horizontal stripes can make you look bigger so be careful with them!

2)monochrome dosnt have to be bold if you thin you can pull it off. Just adding a white belt,clutch and shoes to your little black dress gives it a totally monochrome feel ;)

Soap and Glory review!!!!

Soap and glory is actually one of my favorite brands at the moment and has been for a good couple of months. I have owned a gift pack of soap and glory products and i have re-purchased the ones that i liked and tried out other ones.You can purchase soap and glory products from a lot of places but the place that i grab mine because of the wide range of products there is Boots.By the way all of the prices I mention are from Boots so if you go to other stores it could be different. Also it is in pounds not dollars or any other form of money so the price would change depending on what country your in :)

The first product i will talk about is 'the righteous butter'. this product is a body butter containing shea butter and aloe vera. When i first got this product the thing that made me instantly like it was the smell.Its actually an indescribable smell but i would say it smells fresh and almost like a fancy bathroom?  I brought the 50ml tub at the price of £2.50 (great price!!) which comes with quite a good amount, filled to the top, is a very good amount for if you just want to try the product. I do love this product as its very easy to apply, a little goes a long way and it stays on all day.

Okay. the next product is 'flake away'. It is a body scrub made with shea butter,sugar and peach seed body polish. A 50ml tub of this is also £2.50. It says how to apply the scrub on the top of the lid which is helpful seeing as i rarely read the back of products.It tells you to apply onto damp skin and massage in circular motions until most of the grains are gone. I done this and after it made my skin feel quite tingly and really smooth. There are alot of grains in this body scrub which i like because in some scrubs you dont get enough grains to cover the area.The smell is hard to describe as with all their products but it reminds me a tiny bit of the seaside, seaweed almost but a classy version? I prefer the body butter just because i use it alot more but i would recommend both of them :) You can buy the tubs in 300ml for £10.50 aswell :)

The final product i will be reviewing is 'clean on me'. This is described as a creamy clarifying shower gel.I brought the 500ml bottle for £5.50 but i know you can get a travel size for £2.50 (i like how alot of their products have smaller sizes for £2.50 so you can try them before you splurge too much money on something you dont like). I used up all of this product and it smelt lovely and was very smooth on my skin, lasted quite long and i didn't really have any complaints. However one of my friend tried it and said that she found it too thin for a shower gel but for me that problem didnt occur.I am on my 3rd bottle now so that shows i like it,i am also on my second body butter but still on my first body scrub.

I hope that this post has helped you with your soap and glory products!! there are some which ive heard are good which im going to try such as the hand food, smoothie star and some others but im sure every one of their products are good :)

I would suggest going to Boots now or at least before christmas as they have their 3 for 2 offer on so it would be slightly cheaper to purchase things.

secret sales!! and what i pair with jumpers

This is a bit of a weird post because secret sales are obviously secret and you don't know where they are going to be, but if you see one RUN STRAIGHT TOWARDS IT!!!  seriously they are amazing everything is so cheap and such good quality and sometimes you even find the designer ones and get amazing deals ;D

I went to a secret sample sale (when you can buy things before they go into the shops for cheaper) up in the great city of London a few days ago and oh my golly gosh i nearly died from the sales in there!! they had some designer stuff and some non designer stuff and i was supposed to go shopping that day but i spent all my money in that secret sale!! I was so happy i did though because whilst i was shopping with no more money i saw nothing which was anywhere near as good as the things i purchased in the sale.

Usually in sample sales they usually just have sample sizes which are 6,8 and sometimes 10. However some of them have bigger sizes so it depends which one you go to. Whichever one you see though go into it because they will surprise your socks off with the deals they have and money will literally be flying out your purse to buy!

I love this jumper so much!!
it was £45 and since im a cheap spender that's expensive for me however since the material (wool) and and quality was so good i thought it would be a good investment, and it was!!!
I like the different shades of grey in this and the length, i would however like it to be slightly more baggy.
Ive seen a jumper that looks like this in Topshop so if you like it go and check that out :)

I also like to pair it with a blue denim look shirt underneath as i love that preppy kind of look at the moment but.you could also pair it with a big chunky gold necklace. I have seen some reasonable priced one in H&M.You could tuck a jumper into a skirt, wear it with tights (another one of my favorites) or even just the casual jeans!!
Hope you find a secret sale near you for some great buys and i hope i have helped with any jumper pairing dilemmas
See you soon!!

Knitwear is Coming!!

One reason i like the winter approaching is because of the knitwear!!

There are so many different types of knitwear out there however my personal fave are jumpers just because they look amazing!
I personally prefer patterned jumpers in the winter as they look quite festive even if they don't have a big reindeer on the front. I usually wear them with black leggings because it makes it stand out a lot more.
However at the moment i'm liking jumpers tucked into skirts because i think it looks super cute and girly!

My second fave is Hats!!
not just any hats though but bobble hats!!
I think they are just the best hats EVER
they can add real style to an outfit at any time in autumn or winter. My personal way to style them is with a dress and some Dr Martins as it looks so on trend and street stylish.Oh and don't forget the mascara!

Scarves!!
so many different kinds you will always find one to go with your outfit!
whether they are knitted or not they are real cozy and cute. You can wear these with anything at all and it will look good  (if they match that is)
If you can get some matching gloves,that is adorable!!









As its getting closer to winter the knitted items are back so stock up on the style thats warm and stylish at the same time!!
