Holiday Lookbook, Look 6

Crop Top- Topshop

Shorts- EBay ikandiboutique

Sandals- River Island

Necklace Primark

So this is the last post in my Holiday Lookbook series, the pictures were actually taken by the hotel photographer, we asked him to take a few pictures of us all together on our last night and it ended up being a full on photo shoot, but we ended up with some lovely pictures and it was a laugh. 

I really do love this outfit it's bold and Summery, I had seen so many of these pom pom style tropical shorts but a lot of them seemed quiet pricey so when i spotted these beauties from a boutique on EBay  for about £20 i snapped them up. I love the bright mixture of colours with the pretty floral print, i wore them with a simple white Topshop crop top and a pretty Primark Necklace to brighten up the top half. The reason I'm holding the necklace down in the above picture is because i had just been smacked in the mouth by it on our first attempt at a jumping shot, believe me the picture is hilarious....

I hope you have enjoyed my Holiday Lookbook series, which outfit was your favorite?

Crop Top- Topshop

Skirt- Missguided

Sandals- New Look

Necklace- Primark

Back for the fifth installment of my Holiday Lookbook series with this tropical outfit. Both the crop top and the skirt were new buys for holiday, i spotted the crop top with its tropical print and thought it would be perfect easy to chuck on in the day with a simple pair of denim shorts and then dressed up for the evening like i have here with this plain white scuba skirt from Missguided. I bought the skirt as i had in mind that i would match it with loads unfortunately i brought so many clothes i only needed to wear it once, however i no i will still get a lot of wear out of it over the Summer. I was really feeling the holiday vibe that night and accesorised with a big chunky tribal looking necklace and a pretty alice band braid which was the work of one of my friends as i am useless with those sorts of things! I hope you liked outfit five stay tuned for the last installment tomorrow.

Bralet- Topshop

Skirt- H&M

Sandals- River Island

This is probably my favorite outfit from my holiday, i had seen this bralet grace the blogs and Instagrams of so many of my favourite fashion bloggers, and when i tried it on myself in Topshop i could see why. I completely fell in love with it myself and had to own it, it just feels amazing on, i love the fit the print everything basically. I was worried about it being a bit "booby" if you know what i mean so i decided best to pair it with something that covers my legs up. I picked this grey midi tube skirt to go with it, i love the combination of bralets and midi skirts i just think they go so well together and its great if you don't want to flash too much flesh. I also think pastels and grey go really nicely together. How pretty is my necklace? I had picked it up that day at a Turkish market and i just thought it went so well with the outfit, what do you think?

For the third night i wore this summery outfit from Missguided. The shorts were a new buy for holiday, i had been looking for some white shorts that would go with everything and fell in love with this cute lace pair. The lace and scalloped bottoms are so pretty i think they are the perfect shorts for holidays and festivals. I paired them with this mint bralet also from Missguided, i love white and mint together its one of my favorite Summer colour combos. To go with the girly outfit i wore this flower necklace from Primark and my nude New Look sandals.

Holiday Lookbook, Look 2

Top- Topshop

Skirt- H&M

Sandals- River Island

Jewelry- Primark

So this is my outfit for my second night on holiday, i had sort of pre-planned some of my holiday outfits but most of the clothes i took with me were separates various skirts, shorts and crop tops so i thought i would have a lot more options about what i decided to wear. I hadn't planned this outfit i jut decided i wanted to wear the skirt and just found a top i thought went with it. The skirt is from H&M and its high waisted style is great to go with crop tops, i also love the quilted texture. The top is an old one from Topshop, it was definitely a good buy as i got it a few years ago now and i've worn it so loads it goes with so much. Again i just put on a pair of flat sandals, i don't bother with heels on holiday, these are from River Island and are also seasons old but i still love them they have lasted me well. 

I hope you liked my second outfit, stay tunned for outfit three.

Holiday Lookbook// Look 1

Playsuit- Primark

Sandals- New Look

Jewelry- Primark

If you have seen my previous holiday related posts you may no i've just got back from a girls holiday to Turkey. As promised i took pictures of my outfit each night so i could do a holiday lookbook to show you all my holiday outfits. Instead of doing them altogether like my last holiday lookbook back in October i've decided to do it as a series over the whole week so there will be a new outfit post each day. 

The first nights outfit was this Tribal print playsuit from Primark which you may have already seen in my recent Primark holiday haul post. It was a bargain at £10 i think it looks so much more expensive. It was super comfy to wear and so easy to style, the pretty embellished neckline also meant i didn't need a necklace to accessorize. 

I hope you like the idea of a holiday lookbook series, what do you think of my first outfit?

Pre-Holiday Beauty Preperation

We all like to look our best when we go on holiday, i don't know if its just me but the thought of spending a week in a bikini is enough to get me in a mild panic and get me doing some serious pre-holiday beauty prep.
So as i'm off on holiday today (yayyy) i thought i would do a post showing you the beauty prep i spent the majority of my day yesterday doing to get myself beach ready!

Exfoliating and Moisturising-
Now this is something i've been trying to keep on top of for the last couple of weeks in preparation, as we all know the best way to get a good even tan natural or fake is to keep your skin fresh, smooth and exfoliated so i have been using my Garnier Oil Beauty Scrub pretty regularly in the shower to keep my skin soft and smooth and too remove all my old fake tan so my skin will be nice and fresh for optimum tanning. The other important thing is to keep the skin moisturized so after scrubbing the skin in the shower i make sure i apply my current favorite the Vaseline Spray& Go body moisturiser which is quick and easy to use and leaves the skin soft an smelling lovely.

Hair Removal-
Obviously when your going to spending the week in very little clothing hair removal is a must you don't want to be the hairy mary by the pool!
Some of you more glamourous and organized ladies may well keep your hair removal in check, if your like me however and only really shave those legs consistently when you A- are planning on wearing a skirt/dress and really have to or B- have a bf (and sometimes not even then) then your going to need to get rid of it, i have pretty sensitive skin so i use a sensitive Nair removal cream for more delicate areas (bikini line) and a sensitive Gillette razor for the rest.

Face and Hair Mask-
So scrubbed moisturized and fur free, i like to have a little pamper a use a face mask to freshen up the skin, the Ren Invisible Pores is one of my favorites to really de-clog the pores and leave the face smooth and clean. Knowing that my hair will be getting a bit of a battering with the not so healthy mixture of heat, chlorine and salt, that holidays bring i like to give my hair a bit of a treat before i go just so it's feeling soft and nourished, i've only used it a few times but i am loving the Philip Kingsley Elasicizer it leaves my hair feeling amazing.

Fake Tan-
Some people may think this is an unnecessary step but to me it is 100% necessary, yes i may be going on holiday to get a natural tan but that doesn't happen instantly, and i personally feel at my happiest with  a bit of colour to my skin, so i like to apply some fake tan before i go to tide me over until my natural tan starts to show through.

Eyebrows-
Im so rubbish with my eyebrows, i hate doing them but luckily they don't seem to grow too out of control if i don't do them regularly, but of course no full body pamper would be complete with out giving the brows a bit of attention, i don't do too much to the shape just pluck any stray hairs.

Mani/Pedis-
Finally no beauty prep can be complete without a bit of attention to those nails. I decided not to paint my nails with normal polish as it just chips so easily when your on holiday so i thought i would use my Sensationail gel kit because it literally lasts weeks without chipping which makes it perfect for holidays. For my feet i will give them a bit of attention with my Avon Foot Scrub to get rid of any dry skin moisturize and apply some fresh polish (i don't think i could manage the gel kit on my toes) i like to use a bright Summery Colour one of my current favorites is BarryM's Papaya.

So thats what I like to do do before a holiday to get me primped, preened and feeling my best. Do you have a pamper day before your holiday? 

What's your routine?
