New Years Eve Outfit

It's that time of year again!

Where you forget what day of the week it is and wear pjamas all day long.

... well I have been!

We still have a few days until work is back on again so we may as well enjoy in style and looking nice.

This outfit is all from 


in the post Christmas sales.

I think it would look nice on a casual night at the pub counting down to midnight

or your own house party!

Cheeky.


My thumb ring is from River Island 

and the other is Pandora.


The leaf earrings I got for 50p 

and the boots (Fuggs) *fake uggs

I got for £5 

I'm using them as slippers, they are so super comfy!

But you can always use them as proper shoes as they have a solid plastic sole.

And my little poopy couldn't help but get involved!


Have a great new years and it feels good to be back.

Autumn Wishlist ...

Autumn has most certainly begun in England,

the first leaf I saw fell a couple of days ago,

Taylor (my son) is back to school,

and it's getting chilly and darker in the evenings.

I have been laid on the sofa most of the weekend as I have a stinking cold and headache.
So as you do, I have been window shopping the internet.

This seasons high street has some very exciting pieces, I'm really looking forward to getting home.


&

My perfect combo for a casual day out, early Christmas shopping or going out for a meal.

I would certainly get a 
cardigan and wooly pair of tights 
to wear with this outfit!


&

I'm unsure whether this pair would fit well together however I love them both separately.

I think the dress is a perfect outfit for your/your partners Christmas work party

&

Peep toe shoes are my guilty pleasure at the moment, so classic and the perfectly discrete way to show off beautifully manicured toes.

   
&

Personally I think this is a lovely way to wear stylishly warm and comfy clothing.

The earrings are bang on tend right now as triangles and aztec styling are the thing to wear right now!


&

Pyjamas are my biggest love of Autumn and Winter, they're so comfy!

 I already own a pair of New Look PJ's and they are undoubtedly the most comfy I have.

The Comic Cami looks super cute however I'm gutted they don't sell trousers to match.

I hope you guys are enjoying the Autumn so far!

Have you got any wishlists?
Or any Work Party OOTD ideas??
Send them across!

River Island OOTD

Outfit
which I am in love with!  

Aztec Jumpsuit
Primark White Tee
Primark Sunnies
&Primark cut out Black Pumps 

This is the perfect outfit for the beach, at home or abroad and perfect for wearing a cute bikini underneath.

The material is quite rough and very lightweight 
and super comfortable.

My sunnies above are Primark.
I like big glasses, I don't do things in halves!




Makeup, very minimal, nude lip and smokey brown eye.


The whole outfit, minus makeup only adds up to £30!
Bargain I'd say!

Let me know what want to see next?

#Southamptonmeetup



Yesterday was the #southamptonmeetup at the Orange Rooms!
Arranged by the lovely @hannahbeeblog 

This was my first blogger meet up, and I'm so glad I went along!

I met the most lovely people there and now have many 'go to' blogs and lots of reading material! 

My day started off a little like this:


Flick indeed! I decided to dress my hair in the  
'beached' 'wavey' effect.

My outfit from the meet up you can see

After the short drive to Southampton, I got a little lost as driving in town is quite crazyyyy!

The Orange Rooms is a really nice bar. And we had a whole corner of it.

This was behind me:


And this was in front of me:


Cupcakes of course!
And Diet Coke.


Leanne from OhThatCurl
brought along some Henna products and tons of us got to have a lovely design, unfortunatly I didn't get a picture of any :(

But as you can see we had a great time, meeting for the first time and others catching up!

I can't wait for the next one!

Pictures:


''Only a bit, because I like to keep my life private and protect my son.''


''Because I've just completed 2 years of Beauty Therapy and thought I could give people skin care advice. Plus I like talking about products''


This necklace 
was made by 

Paige Joanna 

The flower she has dried and pressed herself.

It's stunning! 



Loads of goodies to be trying out and blogging about soon to come!

Keep a look out for my John Freida Frizz Ease Review

Southampton Meet Up OOTD

Today was the first blogger event/meet up I've been to!

#southamptonmeetup hosted by the lovely @hannahbeeblog


The dilemma of 'what to wear?!' 
was definatly crossing my mind!

Some of the clothes in this OOTD are so old you may not be able to purchase, however you can swap and change for different ideas.

The slight tan on my arms is Dove Summer Glow Nourishing Lotion
 which I've been using after exfoliating in the shower for a few days now and it has build up the most natural, 'to die for' tan.

 
AllSaints Tee - Outlet price £15

River Island Boyfriend Jeans - very old, can't remember the price
 


Primark Metal Necklace - £1


River Island Mink Colour Wedges - £20


BarryM Gelly Nail Paint - Pomegrante 

River Island Midi Ring - £2

My #southamptonmeetup post will be up tomorrow, lots of pictures and goodies were taken! :)

Favourite Fashion Quote!

Mr Alexander McQueen

My favourite Couture Fashion Designer

His quote: 

I think there is beauty in everything. What ‘normal’ people would perceive as ugly, I can usually see something of beauty in it.

Very brave of someone to say that belongs in the fashion industry where looks, can mean everything. 




Some of his original work.

I also spoke about beauty in this form (here)

My Work Wear.

I'm lucky as my work place have a 
smart casual dress code.

I regularly wear this outfit as 
it's summer(y) and keeps me warm.


 Flower top - Warehouse
White Jumper - River Island
Trousers - Marks and Spencer


 I don't wear a necklace usually because of the collar
I think it would be too much!
 

 NailsInc - My review and the colour can be found (here)

I also wear this outfit at the weekend with a beige pair of Primark Chino's.

I highly recommend, if you wear any patterned top
you do not wear heavy makeup

you will look like a clown.

My makeup today was as basic as it comes,


Foundation
Powder
Eye Liner
Brow Liner
Mascara
and
Lip stick. 
Oh and Blush.

Hope you had a good day at work!
