Autumn Dressing, The Shirt Dress

04 October 2014


Shirt Dress- Missguided
Boots- Topshop
Tights- Primark
Earrings- Primark


I attended a couple of events in Exeter yesterday and i thought i would show you what i wore, i do apologize for the picture quality lets just blame the camera and not the model...  I am in love with this Missguided shirt dress, i am a big fan of dresses and for me shirt dresses are Autumns answer to a Summer dress. There easy enough to throw on and the long selves give that much needed cover up for the colder months. Being a lover of bold prints and colour this particular one had my name written all over it, i love the blue and red checks combined with the bright floral pattern. As is it a bit colder now i wore it with some black tights and my favorite cutout Topshop boots.

I hope you like my outfit, what do you think of shirt dresses?

Nars Laguna Bronzer,
Sleek Pink Lemonade Blush Palette,
Mac Mineralize Skinfinish (Soft and Gentle)

Lips-

I found myself in the mood to play around with my makeup the other day, as soon as i start to get the Autumn feeling i find myself starting to want to change up my makeup to suit the new season. I no were only just entering into Autumn and the weathers still fairly good for this time of the year so i thought i would do a bit of an inbetween look, a transitional makeup look if you will, as the weathers still quite nice I'm not quite feeling the more heavy vampy Autumn looks yet. What i came up with is quite a natural look using warm brown and copper tones and i really like how it turned out. 
I started off with a bit of Porefessional to get a nice even base, i then applied my favorite Nars Sheer Glow followed with a light concealer under the eyes to brighten. I set the base with my Collection powder,bronzed and lightly contoured with my Laguna and then applied a dash of my all time favourite Soft and Gentle highlighter to my cheekbones. 
The eyes are the main feature in the look, i wanted something earthy and warm so i used the Sleek The Original eyeshadow palette which contains a selection of gorgeous metallic shades to create it. I will insert the link to my review of the palette here if you want to see the colours) I used the lightest champagne colour in the inner third of my eyes and softly blended then i applied the copper shade in the middle of my eye and using a different fluffy brush i lightly blended into the inner colour colour. For the outer third of the eyes i used the dark earthy bronze shade also gently blending it into the socket and blending it again gently into the copper colour so the colours all seamlessly blend together as you don't want harsh blocks of colour. To finish the eyes i lined the top lashline with some black liquid liner and applied a few coats of my favourite new mascara from Bourjois.
For the lips i went down a slightly different route than normal for me and went for a brown nude. I think i must be finally feeling the whole 90s brown lip vibe, as i've had this lipgloss for a while now and sort of sworn it off as a horrible brown i would never wear and not a "me" colour, anyway i thought i would just try it out and i actually really like it, its not massively brown just a nice nude and different from the pinks i usually go for, I'm even tempted to go and buy an actual brown lippie now, Kylie Jenner eat your heart out!

Autumn Primark Haul!

05 November 2013


Hey lovelies , I'm really feeling the Autumn vibe now and am being drawn to all the dark colours and textured fabrics and so I'm trying to update my wardrobe with a few new season pieces, this is just a small haul post today to show you a few clothing and accessorie bits i've bought from Primark lately.


Velvet Crop Top £5.00-
I am loving velvet right now, i don't no quiet what's happened as i used to dislike it before but i just cant get enough of it at the moment. It was the colour of this top that stood out to me its such a gorgeous wine colour and the crushed velvet texture i really like it. I find this does come up small i got a 10 and if i stretch my arms up it rides up quiet a bit but I'm planning on wearing it under a pinafore dress so a bit of bra flashing wont matter. 

Black Studded Bag £6.00-
I picked this up as i was looking for a little bag to take out on nights out but didn't want to spend too much. This little bag is perfect its big enough to fit in all my night out essentials, and i really like the studded detail and the chains on the strap, what more could you want for £6.00!

Black slipper Shoes £4.00-
Also loving my slipper shoes right now, as you may have guessed by the three new pair i bought... I think there just so easy to throw on with all outfits, they look good with jeans or dresses and there so comfy to wear, i got some plain black ones that will go with everything.

Leopard Print Slipper Shoes £4.00-
I had to pick up these leopard print ones as well, i think they really stand out and leopard print never really goes out of fashion, these will be great to add a fun touch to a more simple outfit.

Grape Tassel Slipper Shoes £5.00-
The last pair i bought was these lovely grape colored tasseled shoes, i just love the colour there great for Autumn, the tassels make them a bit different from the others and i just had to have them. They also come in black and teal.

Necklace £5.00-
I spotted this necklace after i had payed for my stuff and was leaving the shop, when it caught my eye i thought.. ooooh thats nice but can i really be bothered to que again just for this necklace? And obviously i did! For £5.00 how could i say no, i think it looks much more expensive than that, i love the mixture of metals and the big stones that look different colours in different lighting, love it!

Thats everything ladies, i hope you enjoyed seeing what i bought, they've got some great bits in Primark at the moment, has anyone else bought any new bits from there lately to update there wardrobe?
