Outfit of the Day

Top: Topshop
Skirt: American Apparel
Shrug: Primark
Shoes: Primark (same as first outfit of the day)
Ring: H&M


I'm hiding my face because I had no make-up on, I'm always in a rush in the morning! It is no longer hot in England :( I can't wait to go on holiday, I love the warm too much.

I tried to wear pastel colours today, because they're on trend and so are prints. I love this skirt so much, it makes my outfit so jazzy!

Topshops own temporary tattoos?

Topshop have released their own temporary tattoos today. I really liked the idea of temporary tattoos after Chanel made their own, I thought they were beautiful and so elegant! However, these are far too tacky for my liking! Fair play for trying.

When the sun goes down

Oversized striped tunic dress from Topshop, Freja laced up zipped boots by Alexander Wang, Topshop multirow necklace, Mirrored lens aviavtor sunglasses by Rayban, L'Oreal Lineur liquid eyeliner, NARS lipstick, Mini orb bag from Vivienne Westwood.

I've been going Polyvore crazy since a made an account a few days ago, I love it! This look is slightly based on Taylor Momsen's style, which I love. Many items in this look I couldn't afford (though I wish I could) but you can easily find cheaper alternatives!

Topshop nail varnish review

I never intended to buy this nail varnish as I had my eye on Sunset which is from the SS10 collection. As I went to pick up Sunset I saw a girl looking at Parma Violet and my mouth dropped. I needed this nail varnish and I needed it badly. I love the colour lilac & right now it's one of my favourites and very on trend!
So, on the Topshop website it says that their nail varnishes are fast drying, have extra long wear with a lasting glossy wet look finish and perfect coverage. I do pretty much agree with that, I've had it on now for about 4 days with no top coat and it's only just beginning to chip. Bearing in mind that I play guitar almost everyday and my nails chip so easily, this is pretty exceptional. The consistancy is pretty thin, so you do need two coats of this. One coat comes out patchy on your nails so the second coat will make the colour more brighter and will also give your nails more coverage.
This set me back £5 which is a little expensive seeing as Barry M nail varnishes are about £2-£3 & they are really good quality, but I think if you find a really nice, unique shade you like, go for it because they are great nail varnishes!

Haul

Topshop nail varnish in Parma Violet, Topshop lipstick in Desert (meant to buy Vamp but got the wrong one!), Topshop blush in Flush, Topshop kohl pencil in Coal, B blonde cream peroxide & Revlon colourstay in Buff.

I spent a long time in Topshop today deciding exactly what to buy making sure it was what I really wanted. I really liked the Vamp lipstick which looks brown but really it's a very deep red and it's gorgeous! For some reason though I ended up picking the wrong colour completely and it's not even a fairly nice one that I'd wear! Hopefully they'll let me return it as I haven't opened it. I also walked out of Topshop with some nice new black plimpsoles which I had no intention of buying but y'know! I'd like to just mention that the colour of the nail varnish is GORGEOUS! I'll do reviews on the make-up stuff soon, giving me a chance to use the products. I've had the Revlon colourstay foundation for a few days and so far it's pretty good and I'm using the peroxide to bleach the ends of my hair so I can dye them pink, if it works of course!

Topshop make-up launch

What a great way to start my blog! Today is the launch of Topshop's first ever make-up line which goes on sale online and in stores. Topshop have teamed up with make-up artst Hannah Murray to create two ranges of make-up. The first, a trend collection which will change every few months, also a base collection which will include essential make-up items.

I went in to the Topshop in Nottingham to check out the range up close rather than looking at it online, the line looks pretty good, including nail varnishs, foundations, eye shadows, lipsticks etc prices ranging from £4 to £12. I've seen a few items that I really like and will be buying when I can, I'll also be doing some reviews on them for you!
