Monochrome.

Last week I had a party with my friends because we were off school which gave me the perfect opportunity to wear my white jeans! 

Me and my best friend had been shopping on Wednesday looking for something to wear for the party but none of shops in Nottingham had anything I liked and if they did they didn't have my size! Useless! We ended up going to derby as well seeing as Nottingham was rubbish, they didn't have anything either! 

When we were in Nottingham we went to MAC and had false eyelashes put on, I really loved them but the staff in MAC were horrible, to be honest most of the sales assistant that day were! What ever happened to manners? 

All I ended up with was some fabric I needed from Hyson Green Market, eyelashes, a make up sponge and some much needed new black converse! 

So for the party I wore my white jeans from ASOS, my halter crop from Missguided, and my chunky heels from Primark. I felt really comfortable! 




I did my makeup quite dramatic, the eyelashes pushed me seeing as they made my eyes look bigger, so I used my urban decay 'NAKED 2' pallete, with some Illamasqua pigment for my eyes with my YSL liner, my new foundation 'heathy mix gel serum' by Bourjois, Illamasqua eyebrow cake in 'Thunder' for dark angled brows. To add a slight contour I used my MAC illuminating powder in 'Perfect Topping' and Bare Minerals bronzer. To finish the look I added MAC's 'Creme Cup' lipstick for pale pink lips.

Indian Princess.

So while doing the nightly scroll through asos mum came across this little beauty of a hair accessory, I had been saying I love them but never bought one. This was only £12 and makes me feel like a complete princess. It's called 'ASOS beaded hair crown- Pearl' I completely love it! I've worn it with my kimono, jeans and a cami today, and done Indian inspired makeup using Illamasqua products and the Naked 2 pallete by Urban Decay. 



I'll do a post later on my other goodies from ASOS, thanks for viewing xo

Wide Leg Trousers.

Last night we went out to the Indian for a nice meal with my friends and I wore my new outfit. I felt so comfortable and really summery. Wide leg trousers are a really great option for people with a small waist but big hips and bum! Never knew how much I would love them! I might even but some other prints, these were from Zara and my cropped cami was from River Island. I really love this shade of pink for this top! I also wore my new Illamasqua lipstick in 'Soaked'.

Meadowhall Trip.

So I thought I'd do a little post on my shopping trip to Meadowhall today, the outfit I wore was quite 1950's inspired with the polka dot midi skirt and off the shoulder top, I also wore my Vivienne Westwood pearls and Swedish Hasbeens.


Me and Mum had planned to go to Meadowhall for my Illamasqua make over at Debenhams. The lady that did my makeup was really lovely, I asked her to do something that I couldn't do myself and that was different to my usual look. The makeup she did was quite amazing, really dark eyes using gel eyeliner as eyeshadow and using purple pigment and the Paranormal Palette, really defined brows, bright lips, blush, bronzer and foundation. Like I said it was amazing, but not so much on me. I felt quite uncomfortable in this much makeup, the eyes were too dark for my pale skin and made me feel like a panda/ drag queen. The brows were completely different to how I've ever done them and I felt they changed the shape of my face. I love Illamasqua makeup and it was a great experience but I don't think that amount of makeup is for me! I did love the ombré lip she gave me and bought the 2 colours she used 'Glisade' and 'Soaked' from the Glamour Collection which I've had my eye one for a while. 



I also bought a pink flowy cami top from River Island for £10, and these amazing trousers from Zara for £19.99. I might actually wear these together as I love the combo!

Birmingham.

On Saturday I went to Birmingham with sue, we went especially to see the Illamasqua 'drop in masterclass' which sadly I wasn't too impressed with but we did get to do some shopping! I bought a 'setting powder' which is like an illuminating power from MAC in their current collection in the colour 'perfect topping' as I've started to do a slight contour in my makeup and wanted something to brighten up my cheeks a little. I've got to say I was a little disappointed in Forever 21 this time, although I did end up buying a midi summer dress and a necklace. There just didn't seem to be much spring clothes in, it seemed very jumbled and a little tacky sadly. I got a cute dress in the Zara sale for £13, I call it my Wednesday dress as it's a little bit Wednesday Addams. Lastly I bought some underwear from Ann Summers as we spotted they had an offer on Knickerbox bras 2 for £25, bargain! The pants were on 2 for £12 too and when you spent £50 you got £10 off! Talk about your savings! Of course we bought some Krispy Kremes too! 

Here's some photos-

Pin Up Inspired Makeup.

On Friday my outfit, hair and makeup was pin up inspired. For this look I did a pretty basic flicked eye liner, matte skin, defined brows and red lips, the makeup I used was mainly Illamasqua with my YSL lipstick. I did these cheeky morning selfies for the Illamasqua's #imtheone competition,  hence the rollers left in, I didn't go to college with them in I promise! So here's a few cheeky shots, my shirt is from topshop and the skirt which you can't see if from forever 21.

Tea-Shirt.

ITonight we went out for Lauren's birthday and I wore my new Doc Martens tea-shirt. I wore it with my topshop snake skin leather front skirt and black wedges and of course my goregous Viv bag. Mum had blow dried my hair and put sleep in rollers in it, and I used some of my favourite make up bits and pieces. I used Illamasqua skin base foundation, precision gel liner, mascara, eyebrow cake and hydro viel, I also used the new baby skin primer from maybelline, a Dior palette with blues in and my new ysl lipstick in shade 01 and lip liner in shade 19.
