Christmas Party Season

Miss Selfridge Petites Tapestry Paisley Dress/Miss Selfridge Bardot Dress/River Island Red tartan collared skater dress/TOPSHOP Oriental Embellished Cami Top/TOPSHOP Tall Black Vinyl Pelmet Skirt/River Island Black floral print shirt pencil dress/TOPSHOP Palma Patent Dress/TOPSHOP Sequin Velvet Dress

This is most definitely my favourite time of year and I love an excuse to buy a new dress. These are some of my wants party wear. I think at this time of year it is important to look good but to still be warm. I have Christmas, New Year and my 18th birthday coming up, therefore I will be looking forward to buying a few new pieces, eeeekkk. 

However I believe that it isn't always a dress that is needed, this season I think a high waisted pencil skirt and cami top will look just as great and maybe straying away from the traditional party dress. Also if you are a fan of trousers and don't want to be too cold this winter, like myself - have you thought about trying a jumpsuit? 

I think when it comes to dresses or party wear, Topshop is where you are going to get the best. A lot of the wear on this list is from Topshop. My favourite individual piece has to be the black vinyl pelmet skirt, that I actually have I think it's jut the right length and I am loving the material. If you are struggling for something to wear this Christmas time, I hope this helped. 

Until Next Time

Favourites of the Summer

These are some of the things I have been loving this summer so I thought as summer is coming to an end :( I would do this post. 

1) Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash - After weeks of searching for some oil free face wash I finally found Neutrogena. Before buying this I had never used Neutrogena before but it will certainly be a re-purchase. Just to let you know, I have the worse skin in the world and this stuff is amazing my skin in now clear after using this for 6 weeks, so I mean if it clears up mine I'm sure it will work on anyones. I would recommend this if your skin is very oily (like mine) because it works wonders. 

2) Naked 2 palette from Urban Decay - As you know I brought this palette in America and it is literally the greatest thing I have ever brought, I love it so much. The colours are amazing the brush is amazing, everyone needs to buy this. 

3) Yves Saint Laurent Luxurious Mascara For A False Lash Effect - Is it normal to spend £24 on a mascara?? probably not but it's Yves Saint Laurent so who cares. I got this mascara ages ago but I absolutely love it, I personally think it's one of VSL's best mascara as they have been a bit hit and miss recently. If you're willing to pay this much for a mascara then I would definitely recommend getting it. 

4) Natural Collection Body Spray - I love these body sprays so much they are absolutely amazing, they smell wonderful and last for ages. These bottles are only £2 and I think they are an absolute steal everyone needs one of these and they won't break your bank balance. 

5) Miss Selfridge Petites Denim Pinafore Dress - I actually brought this just before the summer and I love it so much, I've worn it on so many occasions. I sometimes think that Miss Selfridge can be a bit expensive but I managed to get this for £20 as it was the last one in the shop. (shocker there is never anything usually in my size) Pinafores have been a massive hit for the spring/summer trend and i'm so thankful for that because I love it. 

6) Urban Outfitters denim skirt - I also brought this in America as I stated on a previous post and I'm unsure of how much this costs in pounds but it was $50... so if anyone can work that out? I do think Urban Outfitters is overly expensive but their clothes are lovely so i'll let them off. I wouldn't usually spend this much on a skirt but I though hey-ho I'm on holiday lets go all out. If you have the money to spend then I would say go get it as it's one of my favourite pieces. 

7) Collection concealer - Before I confuse anyone Collection has changed their name removing the '2000' so now it's just Collection. This is my most used beauty product ever (other than my mac foundation) it's literally the best concealer out there. It's very cheap at just over £4 (i can't remember the actual price) it has the best coverage of any concealer I have used, high street and high end. It covers up redness, dark circles and scars and you get a lot of product so it's a winner all round. 

Until Next Time

My day trip to Exeter...

Okay so yesterday I went on the train to Exeter which is about an hour from where I live in Plymouth. I needed some clothes to take to Florida with me so I did a spot of shopping. I was actually really disappointed by the lack of nice clothes in Topshop & River Island. I thought the clothing would be a lot better than what it is in Plymouth because of how small Plymouth is. Anyway I managed to buy some clothes.

So I managed to buy clothes in Topshop, Republic, Miss Selfridge and Primark.

Can I just say that my black bikini from Topshop is my main love right now and i'll be wearing it to the beach tomorrow. I wanted a high waisted one because although i'm quite skinny I have absolutely no confidence when it comes to my body so I wanted something that would look nice.

I got my pinafore from Miss Selfridge and I've been looking for a pinafore for so many months now and I got it for £18. It was the last one left in the shop and it was a size 10 and it's really big on me i'm like a size 6/8 but hopefully I can do some measurements to it and make it fit better. But I thought £18 from Miss Selfridge was an absolute steal.

The other thing i'm going to mention are my flatforms from Primark. I really wanted to buy them from Topshop but I don't have much money and I needed other things so I bought them from Primark, even though I hate the store so much. These shoes were so much higher than I thought they would be. However they are really easy to walk in so that is a bonus.

Here is my outfit from today. My crop top is from Topshop, my jeans are from New Look and I had juju jellies on which are in a cyan/turquoise colour.

Turquoise is my summer colour and I am in love with it I swear half of my wardrobe is that colour.

Another thing to add as i'm going Florida i'm not too sure what to wear in the evenings I'm thinking a smart skirt and top with some heels. What does everyone think?

Until next time
