Bought this today for only £3! Another summertime ootd coming your way soon~

Lately... Beauty and Hair haul

My most sincere apologies for such a long delay since my last post, and for the lack of interaction, this week hasn't been any more busy than the last, but I've been feeling under the weather and super grouchy lately D; However, the sun's a-shining! and I wanted to show you all some of my favourite products atm.

Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette





























Sorry for unsightly callouses ='( this is what happens when you play guitar... I'm not sure why I thought this palette would be larger than it actually is, but this size is really handy and I genuinely use all the colours.



Real Techniques brushes



How I managed for so long without these brushes in my life, I'll never know, but I'm never going back...


I get a lot of questions asking me how I manage, treat, care for my hair, and honestly, I don't do an awful lot, but because I dye it quite often I'm slowly getting into the habit of once a week, leaving in conditioner to treat my hair for 5/10 minutes longer than usual. The difference for me is so significant, my hair is noticeably less tangled and feels softer.

My all time favourite conditioner is the Herbal Essences' Dazzling Shine, it smells so lush, and out of their entire range, this one works best for me.



Something new to try out...


It's good to be blogging again! I have another fashion post in the works, so stay tuned!

Spring Fever



I'm sure you guys have sussed that I'm pretty keen on floral print by now, so I hope I'm not plaguing you with repetition, but I thought as a follow up to my Spring haul seen further down below, I'd show you an outfit actually on my person xD 

Skirt: River Island; Thigh highs: eBay; Shoes: H&M

I swapped the white knit for a sheer, cream coloured top instead, seeing as how it's getting ever so slightly warmer here in the UK. (Let's not think about the freak hail/shower storm we experienced this afternoon.)

Currently deliberating whether to cut a fringe I'd grown out over a year ago, back into my hair or not... I take indecisiveness to a whole new level. What do you think? 

I hope you're all happy and healthy!

With love~

Neon Florals


Bought this sheer pink number a while ago without bothering to try it on in store and realised I didn't like the way it looked on me when I got home. Being too lazy to return or exchange, it's been sitting in my wardrobe ever since. Here's my attempt of incorporating it into this season's outfits and hopefully growing to like it.

Sheer shirt: Primark, Floral top: H&M (old); Necklace: Topshop; Watch: DKNY

The floral top underneath is one of my favourites, I'm really enjoying the way the neon literally flashes through from beneath the relaxed sheer shirt. And finally, I'm wearing Revlon's Just Bitten Kissable lip balm stain in Lovesick on my lips~

Can you believe it was snowing last week, I won't be dressing like this for a while yet xD

With love~

I Wasn't Born To Conform


Bringing "Floral on Floral" to the table today. I was actually desperately trying to find a black under-layer for this sheer floral dress shirt, but black is scarce in my wardrobe, and after failing to find one I literally just threw on this white embroidered floral top instead. 

I love floral designs on a black background. It gives an edgy twist to the otherwise feminine pattern.

Sheer floral dress shirt: H&M (old); White floral top (under-layer): Forever 21; Knee highs: eBay
And can someone kindly teach me how to do awesome things with my hair? Between having it down or having it in a ponytail, this is literally the only plait I can muster T__T'

Follow me on Instagram if you'd like!

With love~

Benefit Eyecon :: Beauty Review


Unfortunately, I suffer from a terrible case of "Panda-Eyes" which is a result of a combination of factors, namely: lack of sleep, and a bad diet. I'm constantly striving to improve both predicaments but I can never seem to keep up with either on a consistent basis. Hence why under-eye concealer is a must in my daily make up routine!
