Festival Prep.

I am totally loving all the festival styles around at the minute, especially all the tassels! So I couldn't resist when I saw this gorgeous top in new look! I've styled it with my new black shorts I got from river island, which I also bought in pastel blue as they were both in the sale and it was only £25 for both! How could I not?! I also wore my kimono and tassely bag with it just to give my festival look a tassely overload, and my favourite flowery headband. 




As much as I'm totally in love with this top, I would not recommend anyone to buy this top as it's dry clean only which I only found out after washing when it was completely destroyed! It's a £17.99 cotton top, it's ridiculous that it's dry clean only, I'm so disappointed. Only got to wear it once in it's full glory and now sat cutting the tassels off.

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!

New Buys.

So today me and mum went to Nottingham shopping, and I got quite a few lovely things. My first buys of the day were a pair of shoes from River Island, they were in the sale for £25 down from £45! I'd say that they were a great bargain, I tried them on in brown and black but went with the black cause hey black goes with everything. I like them because they're not a boring court shoe and have nice details on them. My next buys were socks and shorts from Topshop(which I bought with birthday vouchers and only spent in money 70p!) the socks were 3 for £9 and the shorts were £15. The embellishment on the shorts is really cute and the shorts seem like they will be a easy staple piece to wear. I also bought a vintage skirt from A Vintage Obsession, which fits so perfectly. It's tartan which I love, tartan is my favourite autumn/winter pattern. So heres a few photos...
