Tropical in Autumn

So the other day I was out taking photos of my niece for a uni project and thought - why not take an outfit photo? However I totally chose the wrong kind of day to do it! Out of many windswept photos I only got one half decent one but I loved my outfit so much I thought that a post would still have to go up!

Dress - New Look
Cardigan - Primark 
Boots - New Look
Socks - Asda

windswept and interesting?


I bought this tropical print dress at the start of summer and I am so glad that I can still wear it. Probably not for much longer though. This slouchy Primark cardigan has been constantly worn by me recently, I just love it! It definitely makes any outfit. I realise that my boots aren't really shown in these photos, I was too busy focusing on  the wind! but here is the link to my previous blog post on them. Finally frilly socks look good with almost every outfit! I got these little grey ones from Asda last year and constantly wear them. Primark sell loads too.




Have you ever tried taking an outfit photo in really bad weather?

New Look - Everyday Chunky Boot



How gorgeous are these boots? And for £24.99 you just cant go wrong. New Look has always been one of my favourite places to look for shoes and when I went in and saw these I definitely wasn’t disappointed. I have been on the hunt for my winter boots for this year for ages! The chunky heel is something which I have loved since last winter so I am beyond happy to finally own a pair of everyday boots like this. So far I have worn them with dresses and trousers so really they are so versatile. They also come in burgundy which I was so so tempted to buy but I think black will be easier to wear. Look out for many outfits coming up that include these, I am officially in love!



Do you like the chunky boot look?

Cute Halloween Decor

1234

Halloween is definitely one of my favourite occasions, I just love choosing an outfit and seeing all of the decorations in store. One thing I never do but I may next year is decorating my house on the lead up to the day. There are so many cute home decor items out there, specifically on Etsy. How cute are the spider web pillows (6)? They would be worth purchasing as they could be used year after year. I also love the candle holder from Yankee (7), it must be hard to make something cute while still being covered in cobwebs! I love wine glasses that are themed for an occasion therefore number 10 is perfect. Finally who doesnt like fairy lights(1)? you have to admit the pumpkins are cute!





Do you decorate your house at Halloween?

Herbal Essences - Moroccan My Shine



Herbal essences shampoo and conditioners have impressed me so much lately, specifically the Bee Strong range.  I picked up the Moroccan My Shine conditioner as it is designed to nourish damaged and dull hair, exactly what I have. I love the fact that it contains argan oil as I have heard a lot about this doing wonders for other peoples hair, I just have yet to try it myself so this conditioner was a good taster of that. So far my hair has been left so soft and silky! Overall I would highly recommend this conditioner as it makes a huge difference to fried hair, I am actually considering buying it again with the matching shampoo. If you know me this is a huge deal because I always change my hair products!





Have you tried anything from this range?

Easy Uni Outfit

I have recently made a new twitter especially for my blog, it would be so appreciated if you check it out here!






Top – Primark
Blazer – New Look
Treggings – TK Maxx
Necklace – H&M
Slip ons – Dune


This has been my most relied on outfit recently as it is just so simple and comfy. The tshirt is from Primark and has been reused from my summer wardrobe, so worth the money. My blazer has also been featured in many of my posts recently, being only £20 it was definitely a bargain! It wasn’t even on sale! Being a poor student my shoes have also been transitioned from my summer wardrobe to my winter one.  It was my first ever purchase from Dune and I can say that I am really happy with them! They are just so easy to slip on and go with absolutely everything.







Have you reused anything from your summer wardrobe?

One Year Blogging!

I cannot believe that it has been exactly a year since I started blogging! I am beyond glad that I finally started after reading other peoples blogs for years. It is definitely something that I want to do for a long time! Thank you all for the support and continuing to read my posts, I cannot even express how much it is appreciated. Definitely more than my niece appreciated this party hat but its still cute right?

Lush Purchase



 Sakura
Shoot for the Stars


Ah Lush, you got me again. Since moving into a flat that has a bath, Lush has become my obsession again. The range in store is amazing especially the bath bombs which are my favourite products to buy. Usually I buy the Dragons Egg bath bomb but as I only bought that a few weeks ago I thought that I would venture out. First of all I picked up Shoot for the Stars (£3.50), in all honestly this was because it was the last one left.  This means it must be good then huh? I am rubbish at identifying scents but online it says that it smells like the 'Hunny I Washed the Kids Soap' which I have never actually smelled before but judging from this I think I would love. I cant wait to put this in my bath as it states you should watch it ‘shoot and spin’ Exciting! I also bought Sakura (£3.35) which I have wanted for a while. The blue and pink colours in this are simply gorgeous! Online it describes the scent as floral but it also contains lemon oil and orange flower. I can already tell that my bath will be a beautiful colour. Next on my list is Snow Fairy, whos list is this not on? Oh and Santas lip scrub is screaming my name!
