Laguna Beauty...

Hiya!
They weren't kidding when they said third year was going to be the toughest! Sorry, i've neglected my blog baby for a few weeks now but i am back with todays new post! (They'll be another on friday as usual too) So in my 5 spare minutes a day when i am not reading Stanislavski or Meyerhold, I've yet again been drawn in by the radient Lauren Conrad! Her new book 'Beauty' is out and of course, i was in there straight away! The book goes with her 'Style' book, i have referenced this on the blog before, referring it to the Bible! But 'Beauty' is all about you, your skin, health, hair and nails! It really is an amazing read if you're worried about why you're getting breakouts in certain areas, if you're using the right moisturizer for your skin type and of course, how to get those Conrad curls! I recommend it to anyone as it has so many good tips in there, i'm already using a few ;)

'Beauty' Lauren Conrad: £14.99

All her tips! 

Have a good week!

Joyeux Anniversaire....

Bonjour!
It was my 21st birthday yesterday and was surprised with a trip to paris by my boyfriend! (hence the french) This post is a little different to my others as it's not about clothes today but perfume! My scent has always been Gucci by Gucci but i decided to ask for something different this year so i could have a nice change! I was given Burberry Body which is quite musky but with a floral tone and Dot by Marc Jacobs which is very feminine and has a mix of being very fruity but with a vanilla musk. they are both such nice scents and i recommend them a lot! So if you need a new smell in your life... look no further!

New Age Grunge

Hiya! So i've been a bit M.I.A recently, i've just started back at uni for my third year so it's been a bit hectic! First day back though and i found a cute ensemble! I've been loving the grungy look lately, but with a feminine edge and i think this outfit sums it up perfectly... 

                                                 

Military Jacket and Denim shirt: Vintage

Bag: American Apparel

Boots: Clarks

It's very on trend for this season and i think the shirt done up all the way to the top is much better, you could also add a collar necklace to add to the outfit to make it a little more girly if needs be... Another gem i saw (quite literally) were these shorts! They're very grungy but a very good statement piece. You can also make them more girly by adding a blouse in a soft colour but i love this outfit, from the retro jumper to the vintage levi shorts... loving it for Autumn!! 

Jumper: Vintage

Shorts: Levi's (studs added by self) 

Studs: Ebay

So this is the fashion vibe i'm getting this week! Minimal effort but totally statement when you walk into a room! Have an great few days!

Updating The Classic 'Geek'

Hello!!
So this week i've been searching the internet instead of the shops and i've found something i absolutly love right now! Geeky buttoned up shirts with a bit of edge (studs, of course!) A lush pair of shorts and some funky accessories!

Sheer black collared shirt, www.missguided.com: £19.99

So team this shirt with your favourtie pair of shorts - high waisted would go so well with this! Maybe and old pair of Levi's? They never fail ;) 

Desert Lace-ups, Topshop: £32

Absolutly love these at the moment! They are so comfortable and go with almost anything, they would finish off this outfit very nicely - no tights!! Try to go as long as you can baring the flesh before you have to cover them up. When it gets a little colder and the tights have to make a comeback, Swop these beauties for a pair of Dr Martins!

Raybans: £125

Add these lovlies to finish off the whole look. Geek Chic in no time!! 

Have a lovely week! xoxo

Branching Out

Hello!!
I've been in America for 2 months working at a camp, cray! So i haven't written in a long time but whilst i was out there, i was still keeping an eye out for those little gems! For my first post back, i wanted to write about the different styles i've seen for the past 10 weeks, i was out of my comfort zone whilst i was there, not being able to dress up or wear heels or tight things! So i wanted to write about the basics that are key! Also adding that one accessory that can change a whole look.
So the first thing is vests. i love a good oversized vest and i love American Apparels choice, they're good to put on with a good pair of jeans or shorts and layer some necklaces over it (visit www.ISWAI.com for some good peices of cool jewellrey).

Vest: American Apparel £14

Going on from that are shoes...! I absolutly LOVE topshops range of casual loafers at the moment, they can be dressed up or down and are so comfy, i recently bought a pair and they are my go to shoes. They range from £28 and up and completely worth it.



From my blog, you might know that i'm a huge fan of studs! I love adding them to items of clothing because they can make a plain outfit a lot more interesting! So if you have a plain vest lying around that you wouldn't mind jazzing up, you can get a hold of some silver studs from a local habadashory and place them either on the shoulders or down the seams.

I think it makes an outfit look totally unique and i would always pair it with some jeans and very low key jewellrey. You can always buy these tops ready made from places such as The Ragged Priest, This vest is around £25.


So coming on to my last gem... I've become a huge fan of Snapbacks! They are so comfy and perfect for a bad hair day! They can change the whole feel of an outfit straight away and they look awsome! I bought myself an LA Lakers one from the NBA store in New York and i wear it all the time! You can pair this with your plain vest and a pair of denim hotpants with either some loafers or a pair of converse. You'll be New York ready in no time!!

I hope you enjoyed my first post back! I'll be updating it a lot more now i'm home so keep an eye out! Have an amazing few days and i'll be writing very soon....xoxo

Here Comes The Sun...

Hi!! Today has been absolutly swealtering but finally the sun dresses can come out in full force! I'm a big fan of them because they make you feel so good! A good summer dress is above the knee, i prefer ones with no straps (tan lines!) and you can get them anywhere now for next to nothing! This is a personal fav of mine that i wore today, i saw it in a feature Vogue did with H&M and i fell in love with the colour and the shape. You could also wear it with a studded belt and add heels but i just love it for when the suns out!

Dress: £19.99 H&M (Vogue)

I've been seeing a lot of pastel colours around at the moment and i just love um! So get those pins out and embrace the sun!

Time Flies...

Hello! I thought i'd let you all know the very exciting news that i bought myself a new watch yesterday! I needed one to go to America with that was light, i could wear it outdoors and.. c'mon it had to be pretty cool! So i found this amazing one in swatch! 

Swatch: £32

I bought it in white because i have tons it can go with.. it's white, what won't go?! But there are so many colours to choose from, they are so cool and i think, amazing price tag ;)

They warp around your wrist to make it look like a bracelet as well, i'm in love and i hope you will be too! Go get one!!

Red Soles... Green Soles?

So this is just a short post because tonight is the launch of Chloe Green's shoe collection at topshop, i've seen a few of the designs and a couple have caught my eye! She has taken the idea of the god himself, Christian Louboutin and gone for a coloured sole to show they're hers... Fan? Maybe! Check these out ayway... :)

 

CJG, green Soles - all ranging from £120

Edging it Up...

Hello!! I've been is Essex for a few days having a little holiday so i haven't written a post in a while! But while i was on the the tube there, i did spot someone wearing these beauties and it gave me an idea for a post for you guys!

I love the spike detail on these boots, it gives them such an edge and they are so much more interesting to look at, don't you think? Spikes are so cool at the moment, you have Rihanna and The Olsen twins as fans.. These bad boys are also on my wishlist! Me and my friend can't find them anywhere in stock at the moment but you might get lucky! 

Jeffrey Campbell Boots: £128

So amazing to pair with tights and punk up a dress or with distressed jeans and a leather biker jacket... Such amazing shoes!
