Inspo no.4.

Hello everyone, 

I've been back on my favorite website; Pinterest! My whole feed is slowly turning more and more autumnal which fills me with so much joy, these few months are my favorite. These are some of the photos that have caught my eye, I'm really feeling simple, basic pieces that can be thrown on with ease, as well as blue and black.

With less than a month until I'll be walking the streets of Paris, i'm feeling heavily influenced by effortless french style, so stripes and simple lines are whats on my lust list! Also, the perfect coats, I am determined to find one that I love this year, I've already tried on some contenders, but do let me know the best places to look. I'm also counting down to the day that it's cold enough to wear a scarf again, hounds-tooth and tartan are my ultimate faves, I need to hunt down that double sided Primark one that has both! I'm also obsessed with backpacks like the one in the last picture, so chic.

What's inspiring you at the moment?

OOTD #12

Hi dolls,
 This is what I wore on Thursday to watch the Great Gatsby (amazing film!). I really wish I had a flapper dress, dripping with embellishment and jewels to wear, and a cute cloche hat to effortlessly throw on, but sadly, my 21st century wardrobe let me down *sigh*. So I just had to make do with what I know best; a crop top and skater skirt!

 Earrings-Miss selfridge
Crop top- Primark
Necklace-Accessorize
Watch- Olivia Burton
Skirt- Primark
Tights- Tesco
Nike Blazers- Office

This outfit is buy no means groundbreaking, but I really like the overall look :)

This is definitely my new favourite necklace, its just perfect for jazzing up plain tops and popping undershirts to peak out of the collar.

I wanted a change from my converses for this outfit (shock horror!), do I decided to wear my Nike blazers, as I thought the khaki would complement the purple on my lips and my skirt nicely, and just make everything a bit more casual :)

Obviously, this wouldn't be one of my outfits without my beloved Olivia Burton watch :).

My nails didn't really go with my outfit which bugs me (yup I'm weird like that) but I really like them none the less. I used a new Maybelline shade from the color show collection (that's the milky pink shade) and Look beauty polish in `Bling` for the glitter :)

My make up was actually pretty experimental for me! Notice the lack of winged-liner? ;) I used my favourite scadaleyes shadow stick in Bulletproof beige and the MUA undress me too pallet on my eyes, of course with a generous flick of mascara. I also applied a slick of an MUA lipstcik in the shade 2, I really wish it had a name! 

My OOTD's will be outside again once the weather perks up (famous last words...) so I hope you don't mind my bedroom in the background!

The Great Gatsby was such an amazing film; the acting was perfect, the music wonderful and the costumes literally to die for! If you are stuck for something to do next weekend for whenever, go and see it!

In other news, it was my first day back at school today *boo* so I wont be able to post as frequently this week, but I will try my very best!

Have you seen the Great Gatsby? What do you think of my outfit?

You always take it further than I ever can.

OOTD #11

Hi everyone, operation OOTD had to be moved inside for this one, whatever happened to that lovely sun?!

So basically, I had an interview on Tuesday for my work experience, which didn't actually end up happening, so that was quite annoying, but I still like what I wore! 

Shirt- River island

Skirt-Miss selfridge

Tights-Tesco

Shoes-M&S

I bought this shirt in the Christmas sales last year because I just couldn't resist the sweet print, look at it!

How cute are the little cats?! I also adore the pale blue colour and the detail on the collar. I think it's nice and smart without being dull :)This skirt is a really essential in my wardrobe, I couldn't live without it!

Of course my watch was also firmly on my wrist!

My make up was pretty standard for me, I didn't want to go two over the top. My eyes look weirdly green in this picture as well :p. 

 Although this trip was a bit wasted on the whole interview front, I did buy a few make up bits and I found some shoes for the wedding, all of which will be revealed later on in the week :) 

What do you think of my outfit?
