19th Birthday Outfit in London

As I mentioned before I went to London for my birthday (it was the 30th of July). Sadly I arrived back home this morning and I am having to face reality - that I don't live in London and get to shop everyday! Anyway during the day we got our nails, hair and makeup done, so fun! However my makeup was a complete fail so I redone it myself. At night we went to the ice bar and then walked about taking in the London night life. I'm sorry for the quality of the photos, our hotel room did have a window (such bad lighting) and also we were in a rush. Heres the outfit:



      Kimono     - AX Paris
      Top           - Topshop
         Skirt          - New Look
Shoes        - Ebay
           Necklace   - Accessorize

This kimono is my new favourite addition to my wardrobe as it is so versatile. Better yet it was only £20, I got it recently so I am sure it is still available! My top was only £12 from Topshop and I love the subtle v neck as I just think it looks so feminine. The skirt was actually lent to me by my lovely friend but I have noticed that H&M have similar ones in right now, I am so tempted to get one.. My gold chain necklace was apparent as usual! Finally my chunky heels (which I have hauled before) were from Ebay and I love them! The heels aren't the highest so they are so comfy.




Do you like kimonos?

Wednesday Wishlist

1. This DKNY Be Delicious perfume smells so good! Being the cheap skate I am, my usual perfume costs around £13 from Avon therefore I cant see myself stretching £37 for this one... but ah I'd love to smell like this everyday!

2. My sister actually bought this kimono and I am definitely going to 'borrow' it off of her. It could spice up any outfit and could be worn with almost anything. I love how boho it looks, perfect for summer!

3. I have been in love with these shorts from Motel for the longest time, the day that I am actually writing this the whole website had 25% off. My heart is broken because I still have no spare money to get them. I just think that I am a sucker for daisys and sunflowers! There is also a gorgeous skirt with the same print.

4. Sleek eyeshadow palettes (this one is in Au Natural) are so pigmented and last all day! I actually used to own this exact palette but I was 'creative' and decided to depot them (just like all of my favourite youtubers at the time) into a make shift palette. Fail. Anyway I'd love to own it again!

Trend: kimonos

I have noticed that kimonos are featured in stores and online a lot recently. I love them as I feel they can be dressed up with something such as a dress but also can be dressed down with jeans. The trend can also easily be transferred to spring/summer. There are a wide variety of colours, patterns and materials available which gives great choice and leaves everyone satisfied. Here are a few of my top picks:
