OOTD (hot spring day)

I wasn't really sure what to put as the title for this as it is just a random look that I liked and wanted to blog about so here you go. 

As it was a really hot and sunny day today so I went with it. The dress is from Primark for about £5 so that was a good deal I thought it is just navy with little giraffes on it. 

I added a little jumper just in case there was a breeze or it got a little chilli. It is from H&M and was £15 I think it is such a pretty colour, really pastley. Perfect for spring and not too thick or thin. 

My adorable little socks are from topshop I also have them in a whole range of different colours.  

Thanks for reading, hope to see you soon!

Fresh faced spring makeup

As you can see by the title this is a spring makeup look because Winter has now ended therefore it is time to warm up and I have had enough of the cold and rain so I say bring on the spring!

In my opinion spring has the most natural looking makeup and so I stuck to that theme, I kept the eyebrows looking realistic and a bit lighter than I  had been previously been doing them in the winter time. For this I used a brow mascara by Rimmel in dark blonde.


Sticking with the natural  theme again the eyeliner I used was the Rimmel Scandle eyes but in blue rather than black because it looks less harsh on your eyes. Also the mascara I used was one I am loving at the moment thanks to my mum, its the Mac 'false lashes extreme  black'. (Pulling a weird face there Jodie).


The eye shadow I used is from a brand that I do not often look into very deep and that is number 7. It is in a shade called tender which is a gorgeous name that really suits it. It looks really cool kind of like a baked shadow and my stupid camera doesn't show how nice it actually looks. A floral  pink with a goddess golden shimmer much like the blush.


At this time of year is the time where I wear blushes most and so I thought this  one was great because it is a sutle pink with a gold shimmer, a little different to the other blushes I own. I actually have had  this ages but forgot about it (don't you just love it when that happens).


Lips wise I used the Rimmel Kate Moss lipstick in 101  because it is a really pretty light pink shade perfect for spring. However if  you are not as much of a lipstick person or you just prefer gloss then the Tanya Burr lip gloss in the shade 'Afternoon tea' is lovely rich yet weightless product.


To  complete the look I put my hair just in a bun and added this cute scrunchy from Newlook for  £2.99. It is sweet and gets all the hair out of your face.

 
Than  you for reading my post, hope to see you soon.

Outffit of the day (dupe edition)

Todays post is  an outfit one because I haven't  done a fashion post in ages. And thought as I am going into town today I would show you what I am wearing. These are all things that look like expensive items or something you have seen in a shop but couldn't afford.


 Ok so when I was taking these pics I did get a bit carried away not going lie the one at the end I am not to sure what I am doing but lets just forget about that.

The jeans are plain black and actually from Asda because I was trying to find a dupe for the Topshop ones and these are amazing and wee only about £10 or £12 way cheaper than Topshop as they are around  £40.

The top is from Newlook and is a simple white crop top with a slightly high neck and a hold thing going on at the bottom. It cost £7.99 a perfect thing for the spring summer time as it is getting warmer. Way less than the Topshop ones but looks the same.

The jacket is actually from a charity shop for about £5 really super cheap and looks good with so many outfits  I can just chuck it on top of anything. I have recently fallen in love with vintage and charity shops because they have stuff you wouldn't always see in high street shops, something a little different maybe.

The shoes I saw in Topshop and wanted to get for sooo long, but when I stepped into Primark a while back I stumbled across these and they looked the exact same so u thought why not. Now people ask me  if I got them from Topshop I just nod, shhh they will never know if you don't tell them.

My rings I think I got in the Newlook sale along with a load of others in the pack for £2 a great deal that looks more expensive than it is.

Finally, my necklace was given to me by my Grampy and that actually was expensive, but it just goes really well with the rest of the outfit so that is why I included it.

Thank you for reading my post hope it helped you out, see you soon.
