I'm very much okay with them. I've been wearing mine a lot recently, but what am I going to do when the weather actually permits wearing gloves?!
I've been wearing mine with a couple of rings stacked on top. I'm into it. I'm interested in getting some lace leggings to layer over tights, grey preferably. Your thoughts?
I've also been on an e-bay frenzy recently. If anyone knows where I can get some kind of replica of those Topshop Ashish boots that are selling for about 8billion pounds and your soul, then let me know and we can be best friends for the rest of our lives.
After a good few years of searching, I have finally found it.
The Perfect Foundation!
Being very very pale, I've found it really hard to find a foundation that doesn't make me look grey or orange. Trust me, I've tried them all! MAC, Clinique, Nicola Roberts 'Dainty Doll' Range, Stargazer, Shu Uemura and about 3 million drugstore buys.
After a bit of research I found out what foundation Dita Von Teese uses and obviously I had to try it.
L'oreal True Match Foundation in N1 is perfect for me! I'm seriously in love with it. It's the perfect shade and I love the formulation! The only thing I would say is that it probably wouldn't work for people with dry skin. Other than that, no complaints! If it works for Dita...
I'm trying to commit to this blog, I really enjoy writing it but I seem to always forget about it!
I really want a pencil dress with long sleeves and a lower neckline! I have a picture of it in my head, but can't seem to find what I'm looking for, does anyone else have this problem!? It happens to me all the time.
If anyone can help me find this I will love you!
Also if anyone can suggest some new good on-line shops?
Taking inspiration (well, copying) the make-up looking from Moschino's recent collection, I tried this look on a night out last week and I LOVED IT. I tend to wear red lipstick everyday, with liner on my lid so when I go out I want to take it up a notch, without looking like a hooker. I really liked this but it was a bloody nightmare to try and get the lines even! In the end I just done and well as I could and told myself I was going for the less than perfect look!
I'm really enjoying make-up visuals recently, something I never used to really notice. Especially with brands like Illamasqua becoming bigger. If you've seen the visuals for their Sirens Collection or for Dystopia you'll know exactly what I mean!
.
I know that about 7 million people on youtube do monthly make-up favourites so I thought I'd give it a try using clothes that I can seem to stop wearing.
I finally gave into the trend and bought a blazer. Picked up this one a couple of weeks ago from New Look. It was £30 but I know that it's been reduced to £20! It's jersey material so wearing it feels more like a cardigan if anything. I didn't want to give into this trend because it's becoming over done but since I bought one I can't seem to stop wearing it, it just goes with everything!
Secondly, these beautiful wedges. They seem to call to me every time I leave the house. I haven't yet been brave enough to wear them during the day but every time I go out they are the first pair I grab. Found them through another blog (Luxe Noir if my memory serves me correctly). They're from Office and were reduced from £80 to £30, amazing.
Things I've also been enjoying this month are:
- Wearing several skinny belts together.
- Finding out that Faith and Matalan use the same shoe suppliers.
- Grey and/or ribbed leggings.
- Ebay (always and forever (L))
- Wearing my wet look vest pretty much all the time.
- Layers.
MAC Paint Pot in Indianwood.
bought it on the way home from college last week and I truly love it!
It's amazing with every colour in my Sleek storm palette (which was my true love before the paint pot)
If this blog was a child then social services would be huntin me down!
Anyway, my friend and I are starting a youtube channel called The Fashion Forecast
We'll be doing weekly videos (if timetables allow!) on trends we like or dislike, celebrity styles and anything else that takes our fashion. You should head over and subscribe, I heard you get eternal happiness if you do...

This has to be one of, if not my favourite, collections ever.
This was the first collection by John Galliano that really made me realise how much of an artist he is. As can clearly be seen, the full collection is based off his trip to Egypt, taken just before he started designing the pieces.
I'm a bit obsessed with all things ancient Egypt so, of course, this collection appealed to me. But I just found every single piece to be perfect. 
It's over the top, exaggerated and different from what other designers were doing at the time. Which for most, was nothing special. I also love that I can look at it today and still appreciate it.
The head pieces and all the jewels add to the dresses themselves and the way the models were asked to walk was very angular and made the collection feel even more realistic.
What I also loved about the collection was the make-up. Which, is amazing. I'm 99% the make-up looks are Pat McGrath, it looks like her work and I know John Galliano loves her. Let me know if I'm wrong though!
P.s here's a link in case anyone wants to drool over the collection!
