Be a cartoon heart.

OOTD #20

Aloha everyone! This is my twentieth outfit of the day! It seems like a forever ago that I posed really awkwardly and my sister clicked away, it was only in march  :) Also sorry for the annoying blur going on in these photos, its that blumin' sun's fault!

Earrings-Republic
Top-Primark
Pinafore- Primark
Converse- Office

I've been wanting to wear this crop top and pinafore combo for ages but I never got round to it until this weekend. However I did end up having to change because I was just boiling. On that note, how amazing has the weather been lately! I seriously hope it stays like this for the summer holidays *crosses fingers*
 Anyway, back to what I'm wearing, I'm hoping it doesn't look cheap because I'm wearing practically all Primark! Personally I think it looks really cute, I was definitely trying to channel my inner Ariana Grande! I love the pattern on this crop top and I think the long sleeves make it perfect for pairing with a pinafore, but because it is cropped you have a little bit for your side showing, rather than it being completely covered.

 I decided my faithful Essie Action would look fab with this so thats what I went for in the nail department;

For earrings, I picked my little unicorn/ pegasus ones :)

My not-so-white-anymore converse also feature! I think these look super cute with this outfit and keep it nice and casual. 

I decided to take my new lipstick for a spin (which I blogged about it here) and I think makes a great contrast with the light denim and monochrome going on! 

I for one cannot wait for it to be the holidays, blogging will be very high on the agenda I can tell you :) I went to Alton Towers (if you don't live in England, it's like a huge theme park) on Sunday and it was so fun! I'm not really one for rides but I went on the Smiler which is like the scariest ride there so I was very pleased with myself!

Don't forget to check out my giveaway! 

We're spinning on our heels, so far away from real.

OOTD #13

It's OOTD time, and were back outside *yay!*

Earrings- River island 

Bralet-Primark

Skirt- Internationale 

Watch- Olivia Burton

Bracelet- Topshop/ DIY

Tights- Tesco

Converse- Office

Sorry I've been wearing so many skirts recently! They are definitely what I'm really loving right now! I wore this go go for a little shop with my sister, but I also practically wore this for my friends birthday meal last week :)

I wanted to wear this little bralet as soon as I bought it, it's just SO pretty! 

I totally love the vintagey floral print and the colours are just perfect to me! Considering this was only six great British pounds, it was a total bargain! 

My earrings matched the cutesy vintage theme I was going for as well!

As did my watch :)

I wore this little bracelet as well; 

I think the little charms are so sweet, and I love adding dainty little pieces like this to any outfit, so I'll probably be wearing this a lot more!

I painted my nails with my new fave shade, maybelline's `Mint for life`  

I thought my converses went really well with this ensemble, to be honest., what don't they go with ?! 

This is actually the first time I have worn my only Mac lippie in an OOTD (!), so here it is! It's in the shade Pink nouveau. 

I recently noticed that I have hit 33 followers on Bloglovin! Thank you so much guys, I cannot tell you how much every follower means <3 So my next target is 40 and I will almost certainly do a giveaway when I hit 50 :)

What do you think of my outfit? Are you a fan of vintage inspiration?

Half term haul.

Hi guys, I've got a little primark/ beauty haul for you today :) 

I went to Primark quite recently, so I just picked up a few bits , but I really like what I did buy :)

The first thing I spotted was this beyond cute pinafore! 

Denim pinafore- £12.00

I've been wanting to jump on the pinafore bandwagon for quite some time, so I was really pleased to find this gorgeous denim one for only £12! I literally can't wait to wear it, expect an OOTD soon :p I'm also loving everything denim at the moment; jeans, shorts, skirts, shirts... 

Neon pink jumper- £10.00

I popped this beauty into my basket after being drawn by the colour from across the room! I'm not even a huge neon fan, but I just love this jumper. It feels like really good quality, and I just thought it would be the perfect spring knit, and looks very similar to one I saw recently in topshop for about 4x the price as well!

Raglan skater dress- £8.00

I love this dress! One of my favourite sporty styles is raglan/ baseball tops, so this was a winner from the start, add a skater skirt into the mix and I'm sold! I think this will look lovely with converse and pop of colour on the lips :)

I also bought some more hair-bands, I would love to know where all mine end up!

Laser cut slipper pumps- £8.00

I bought these little tan slipper-pumps because I've been looking for something like this for quite a while. I can imagine this will look lovely with a cream sleeveless shirt, blue jeans and a tan! I love the laser cut detail, as it just makes them a bit more interesting. Don't you think these look more Zara than Primark? I would have paid Zara prices as well!

If you read my post yesterday, you will know that I ended up buying a few beauty bits then, so here they are!

I've wanted this sleek blush in `pixie pink` for quite some time, and I've finally got my mitts on it :) To me its the perfect dolly pink colour, it looks a bit scary in the pan, but it applies like a dream and looks gorgeous on.

Sleek `Pixie pink` blush- £4.95

Yours truly wear `pixie pink` for just a subtle flush of colour.

I then headed over to the maybelline counter, trying to find a dupe for Essie's `Fiji`. I ended up buying `nebline` from the color show range, which I think is actually a little pinker than Fiji when on the actual nails , but it's a lovely shade nonetheless!

Maybelline color show nail polish in `Nebline`- £2.99

 I also decided to purchase `mint for life`, which is now on my toes! Its a gorgeous creamy mint which looks so nice with a tan :) 

Maybelline Super stay nail polish in `Mint for life` -£4.09

I've been really impressed by the quality of these polished and I'll definitely be buying more  in the future!

So thats what I've bought this half term! What have you been buying lately?

OOTD #9
As promised, here is today's outfit :)

Earrings- Miss selfridge
Jacket- ASOS
Tshirt- Ebay (Topshop)
Watch-Olivia Burton
Jeans-Republic
Converse-Office

I've just been at a drama rehearsal today, so I just went casual :)

This top is one of my best Ebay bargains, it was only about £3.99 and is originally Topshop. It's actually one of my favourite tshirt's, because I find it's just really easy to style and goes with everything, and of course, it's Batman!

I'm also wearing my favourite pair of jeans, even if I do buy a pair of Topshop Joni's, I'm sure these will always have a special place in my heart :p.

White Converse again, call me unadventurous, but I just love these shoes. they've actually stayed pretty white as well! 

 I decided to match my nails to my tee (sad I know!) and this models own one goes perfectly, it's in the shade `Lemon meringue,` just in case you were wondering :)

To be honest, I can't not wear my watch now, it just doesn't feel right!

I actually straightened my hair today, first time ever in an OOTD! I just fancied a change from my usual waves really. I'm wearing a random rimmel lip liner as well, because I wanted a more matt red on the old lips  today :). Also, what's up with the weather?! Yesterday I did my paper round in lashing rain and strong winds, and today it's a balmy 17 degrees, I just hope it stays like this for the rest of the week!

I hope you're all having a lovely saturday so far, and here's to a week of blogging! *raises mug of  tea and takes a bit of lemon cake*

What kind of posts would you like to see? (let me know in the comments!)

Wishlist #2

It's time for another wishlist! I haven't done one for a very long time, so this is long overdue. I'm currently really craving some summery weather, so some bits are pretty optimistic for the current climate! 

  -Fashion union Striped crop top- 

Firstly, I don't really like having pictures on my blog with the model in the photo (I think it's just nicer to have only the item of clothing,) but a)  this top didn't look great on it's own, and b) I really like the way this has been styled with the drapey necklaces! As you may have noticed, I have a bit of an obsession with crop tops, and I really want to add this one to my collection! It's only £8, which I think is really good because this is a really basic, statement piece. I also had  a striped crop top in my last wishlist, must just be something about them!

-Fashion union NYC tshirt- 

Back to the white background! Fashion union is an online shop that I really love,  but I don't really hear much about, let me know if you ever shop there ! Anyway, onto this top!I really love all the sport motifs that are flying about at the moment, and bottle green is one of my favorite colours, so really this is a win win piece for me! It's a tad pricey for a tshirt, £15 to be precise, but the material looks nice and thick and I can see my self getting a lot of wear out of it. 

-Topshop Joni jeans- 

I love a good pair of jeans; denim, acid wash, coloured, patterned. Shockingly, I don't own any Topshop ones! and I think its about time I do. I've heard a lot about these Joni jeans and as I do prefer a high waisted cut so these I think are perfect for me! The colour is super summery and it will be nice to ad a lighter denim hue to my wardrobe. 

-Real techniques starter kit-

I absolutely love the Real Techniques brushes. I have the core collection and the stippling brush and I'm eager to expand! I getting more into eye shadow at the moment and I think this set will really help :) obviously the quality is amazing and price is great, these are actually five pounds cheaper on amazon at the moment so I may have to purchase! 

-New look Crochet shorts-

These shorts are so pretty! I love the simple edition of crochet which really transforms these otherwise quite boring shorts. There a bargain at £19.99, when you think of that compared to Topshop prices!

So that's what I'm lusting after at the moment :) whats on your wish list?
