Autumn Faves

Autumn is well and truly upon us - though to be honest here in Preston it feels more like winter!

1. Lipstick 'Inhibition' - Topshop, £8
2. Studded Cardi - Miss Selfridge, £42
3. Nails 'Thorn' - Topshop, £6.50
4. Plum Lace Dress - Miss Selfridge, £39
5. Bronze Sequin Top - Boohoo, £18
6. Wet Look Skater Skirt - Boohoo, £12
7. Aztec Black Scarf - Matalan, £8
8. Studded Handle Clutch - Boohoo, £25
9. Navy Quilted Jacket - Matalan, £15
10. Berry Pleated Skirt - Boohoo, £12

13. Chelsea Boots - Office, £65
14. Stud Detail Dress - New Look, £27.99

Models Own Haul

Models Own is one of my absolute favourite nail polish brands, so when they announced they were having a 50% off summer sale, I just jumped at the chance to get some of the gorgeous shades I've been wanting!


I was absolutely spoilt for choice over which to use first! I went for Pink Punch and Ibiza Mix on my nails (you can see how that looks here) and I put Indian Ocean over Essie's Navigate Her on my toes which looks so cute but I don't want to take pictures of my feet.

I've also tried out Disco Mix over Essie's Tour De Finance since I bought these and I think it the glitter looks awesome over hot pink!

I hope you like my haul, if you have any of these shades or want to know my opinion on them, just leave a comment below or chat to me on twitter

Man of the Week!

This is a new thing for my blog, I ran the idea past two of the girls in my flat and they said they liked it so hear we go. Every Tuesday I am going to have a new Man of the Week - showing you the guy I'm absolutely loving for whatever reason at that moment in time.

For the very first week, I feel it's only right that I choose my absolute favourite man right now, and it's topical because the TV show that he stars in has just started it's new season... of course it's The Vampire Diaries and of course it's Ian Somerhalder!

Damon Salvatore (The Vampire Diaries)
I'll always choose Damon
Boone Carlyle (Lost)
Why did he have to die so early? *sob*


Those eyes, that smirk, that jawline!!

And I also adore his girlfriend Nina Dobrev!
Yep, Ian Somerhalder is pretty damn perfect! I wonder who I'll pick next week to challenge him...

If you like my man of the week or want to tell me who your current hot crush is, leave a comment below or chat to me on twitter.

Lust Have! Ciaté Advent Calender

Ciaté have brought out a nail polish advent calender... could there be anything more perfect?!

They're calling it 'Mini Mani Month' and it's exclusive to Selfridges, costing £38. It just seems too good to be true, all that for just under £40... and I'm so close to cracking my self-imposed budget and giving in.

There are 17 of Ciaté's best selling mini paint pots, 4 mini Cavier blends and 3 exclusive glitter shades!
I'd put this on my Christmas list but I know it will sell out by then - argh the temptation!

Let me know if you love this idea from Ciaté as much as I do and if you're going to buy it.

Sunday Face

"The look on a persons face after having been deprived of sleep due to binge drinking/taking drugs... usually after a good weekend" - Urban Dictionary

Well that definition isn't at all accurate, I've had plenty of sleep and I haven't had booze for a week, this is just my face! Not sure if this will be a regular thing, just felt like doing it today!

Hair - absolutely natural

Face - Clinique Tinted Moisturiser (03 Neutral)
Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer (Light 2)
Mac Blusher (Ambering Rose)
No. 7 Beautiful Brows Pencil (Brown/Black)
MUA Undressed Eyeshadow Palette (1, 2, 7, 8)
Urban Decay 24/7 Eye Pencil (Zero)
Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick (Pink Brown)

Necklace - H&M
Top - Bon Jovi 2000 (Thrifted)

So there we go, another new thing I'm trying, apologies for the constant bad quality iPhone pictures!

Let me know if you like this kind of post, I'll be trying a triple photo thing later this week.

Life Update! University and Birthday

I know I've been absent from blogging for far too long and I'm very sorry, but I just started my third year at University and my hours and work load have almost tripled so I just haven't made time to blog until now - I'm devising a regular set schedule for content!

It's also been my 21st birthday which was amazing, I absolutely loved the entire week of celebrations, so as a kind of welcome back to my blog, I thought I'd show you some pictures!

Some of the cuteness from my flatmates!

Some of my presents from home!

Me and some of the crazies on my course!

Raquel and Mog!

The G, Shocked Cat & L-Bolt


Back in Sheffield with the bestests!

I'm very glad to be back properly blogging, let me know what sort of things you'd like to see on here as I may have run dry on ideas. Leave comments or chat to me on twitter
