March Fashion & Beauty Wishlist!

Hey beaut's!

It's March which can only mean one thing...it's wishlist time again, and this month I'm switching things up by having a couple of clothing pieces on my wishlist, this makes a change for me because usually it's a mountain of makeup products that I'm lusting after! 

I'm LOVING the leopard print trend still and the midi skirt from New Look is high up on my must buy list along with the fabulous t-shirt which is also from New Look which I thought would look quite nice tucked into the skirt! I've also got to have those leopard print sandals from Topshop ready for the warmer days, I absolutely love them!

Makeup wise I really want to try the Elf  Poreless Putty Primer, unfortunately they don't seem to have it in my Superdrug yet as I've already been on the hunt for it so hopefully they will have it in stock soon! I also really want to try the Urban Decay Naked Reloaded Palette, I collect Urban Decay palettes so I need to add this one to my collection pronto! I also cant wait for the Too Faced Better Than Sex Liquid Liner to launch, if you know me then you know I don't leave the house without my trademark winged liner on so this launch has got me very excited! 

Whats on your beauty wishlist at the moment beaut's?

My New Favourite Dress + My Very First OOTD!

Hey beaut's!

Today I'm sharing my very first outfit of the day and this is a pretty big deal for me, I have a lot of confidence issues when it comes to outfit pictures and often think I look like an absolute tit but recently I've thought sod it, if I look like an absolute tit then so be it, you only live once after all hey!

So lets just appreciate how cute, simple and versatile this little black dress is, I bought it in Peacocks recently so if you like it then it should definitely still be in stores and online, I'm a little bit obsessed with it if I'm honest! It's so flattering on my shape because the tie waist pulls me in at my smallest part and although I love the black belt it comes with I also bought and leopard print belt to wear with it aswell sometimes when I want to switch things up a bit, it's also the perfect length for me and I can see it looking great with heels, sandals, vans and even ankle boots like I'm wearing today.

Dress - Peacocks

Boots - LOTD - old

Sunglasses - Primark

Theres my very first OOTD, I know it's basic but hey - everyone loves a little black dress don't they, please be kind beaut's and maybe I'll do some more and be a little bit more adventurous next time! Let me know your thoughts on the dress too!

Blogger Secret Santa With Jake Shoes!

Hey beaut's!

Back in November I received an exciting email about collaborating with Jake Shoes and taking part in their secret Santa along with a whole host of other bloggers, I jumped at the chance to take part, I mean shoes, bloggers getting together and secret Santa...whats not to love! Funny enough the blogger that got me was none other than my bestie Kate from Kate's Closet, and I got her too, I mean what are the chances of that! Because of the fact I know Kate well it made my choice for her very easy as I know how much she loves her trainers and I'm guessing it was easy for her too as I'm the exact same and live in my trainers!

The Jake Shoes* website is pretty impressive, theres a choice or ladies, mens and kids shoes, theres trainers, boots, heels, sandals, you name it they have it and theres lots of big - well known brands to choose from too such as Ugg, Dr Martins, Timberland, Converse plus many more, your literally spoilt for choice! 

The shoes Kate picked out for me where the Old Skool Vans in the khaki colour with that iconic old skool stripe down the side in leopard print and I absolutely love them, so thank you very much Kate, you did goodddd! I literally have no other trainers or shoes in the colourway of these Vans, in fact I've not actually seen these Van's on anyone before so I'd say their a pretty unique style. Just like with all Van's their so versatile and go with pretty much any outfit I throw on, it's why I'm such a Van's lover in general because their so easy to wear in any season!

What do you think of these Van's beaut's? I'd love to know! You can find them on the Jake Shoes website HERE for £45.00.

My Favourite Autumn/Winter Boots!

Hey beaut's!

It's now starting to get very chilly here in the UK and I can almost smell Winter  in the air so it's time to stock up that winter wardrobe with cosy essentials starting with boots. I absolutely love ankle boots, I just find they are so versatile and can generally go with any outfit from dresses with tights to jeans and even thick leggings with frilly socks, the list really is endless so I thought I'd share with you my favourite two pairs I've been living in at the moment from LOTD.

Taupe Four Buckle Western Style Boots* £20.00

I'm totally obsessed with these Buckle Western Style Ankle Boots from LOTD, not only do they look gorgeous with their suede effect and the trademark buckles that are everywhere at the moment but they are soooo comfortable, I've honestly never found a pair of blocked heeled boots that feel so comfy to walk in, I don't feel like I'm wearing heels at all, it's strange but so good he he! I think the price of these is incredible too, just £20.00 for a pair of well made, fashionable, super comfy boots cant be bad hey.

  Black Faux Suede Four Buckle Studded Boots* £30.00

These Faux Suede Four Buckle Studded Boots are perfect to whack on with a pair of skinny jeans and a massive jumper and your good to go! The detail on these is incredible though, from the four buckles and the stud's around the sole and the buckles, their so lush. Again just like the heeled boots these are super comfy and basically go with everything!

You can find both pairs of Boots along with so much more on the LOTD website HERE.

What style of boots have you been loving recently beaut's? I'd love to know!

My Most Worn Shoes This Spring...So Far!

Hey beaut's!

Check me out doing another fashion related blog post, I put a footwear post up in March (here) and now I thought I'd do another one featuring two of my favourite pairs of shoes at the moment that basically haven't left my feet so far this Spring!

Of course I joined the Old Skool Vans club, well it would of been rude not too wouldn't it he he. I actually really needed a new pair of Vans, my white ones are pretty much dead and this old skool style was too nice to resist, they basically go with anything from skinny jeans, casual dresses and even casual skirts and shorts when it's warmer. My favourite way to wear these at the moment is actually to fold up my skinny jeans exposing quite a bit of ankle then whacking on a pair of little frilly ankle socks, they look super, super cute!

The other pair of shoes or should I say sandals I've been obsessed with wearing recently are these little gold beauties from Primark, they cost me a tiny £6.00 and honestly they are the most comfortable pair of sandals I've ever owned. The gold cross-over detail across the top of my foot is actually thick elastic so they move/bend with my foot and the fit of them is bang on for my little size 3 feet. I honestly cant recommend these enough, they've been perfect for the humid weather we've had in the UK this past week and they go with everything, oddly I always find that with gold sandals, they just match well with everything I wear.

What are your favourite shoes to wear at the moment beaut's? Are you rocking some Old Skool Van's? I'd love to know!
