PROM.

Hello my loves,

I'm going to keep this intro short because I don't think this post needs much explaining My prom was on Friday night, and it was just lovely. Our transport was fab, the venue was  fab and everyone honestly looked stunning. 

Dress- Dusk till dawn

Shoes- New look

Bag- Next

Ring and bracelet- Pandora

Earrings- My granny's

Necklace- My mum's

Ahh, the dress! I have been wanting to show you all my choice for the evening for so long. I bought my one in a relatively local store in olney called Dusk till Dawn. As soon as I tried it on I knew I'd found the dress I loved to bits. I just adore the shape of it, I think the way it falls is so flattering and the little pleats at the back are so pretty. I obviously love the sparkly bodice too! I think the fact that it has pink, silver and rose gold tones to it makes it nice and interesting. I found the sweetheart neckline flattering despite not having the most going on in the bust department!

My shoes are from New Look, now this picture does them no justice what so ever, but each of the little gem-y bits are iridescent (like my earrings and bag) and caught the light so beautifully. I kept my accessories on the theme of silver, pearls and the two-tones gems. As you can see, the heel is pretty high, but because it has the platform at the front, they were actually ok to walk in, I like that they are not too chunky either.

Me and my mum were looking through some of my granny's jewelry boxes, and as soon as I saw these I knew they would be perfect- I must have actually yelped with excitement!

I got my nails done for the first time for prom, I can see why it would get addictive! I went for french manicure gels with a top coat that has the tiniest amount of glitter. I will be interesting to see how long they last, it should be two to three weeks, I don't know if I can have have them the same for that long though! My clutch is from Next and I had enough room to bring all the essentials, that being my phone, little camera, powder and brush, lip-gloss and money, plus a few rouge Polaroid pictures! The sparkles on this bag match that of my shoes exactly, I was really lucky to find something that matched so well.

This necklace was a gift to my mum from one of her friends, how gorgeously delicate is it? It broke up the space between my neck and the dress perfectly, whilst also running with the pearl theme. 

I also wore my Pandora ring and bracelet, they always make me feel so well put together when I wear them both! 

I had my makeup done at the YSL counter in Debenhams was such a nice experience! The lady doing my makeup was so lovely, even though she was totally rushed off her feet! We went for a gold smokey eye, and peach cheeks and lips. 

I had my hair put up in the hairdressers as well, it's actually quite different to what I had in mind, but I think it does look super pretty at the back! We got the little hairpins from the dress shop and they are literally the exact same colour to the dress. You can see the low back it has here too, I love the pleats so much. 

We had the most amazing transport! We were actually struggling to find anything, so this really way a gem. We found it through the Vintage Limousine hire, if you live in the Bucks/Beds are I would totally recommenced them, our driver took us for a spin for a while and put up with I whooping and/ore screaming every time someone waved back at us. 

How beautiful do my girls look?! It was just lovely seeing my whole year dressed up, and I have to say,we scrub up rather well! 

All in all it was such an amazing night, the prom was fab, the after party so fun and I after that me and one of the besties stayed up talking until seven; it was perfect! 

What do you think of my prom outfit? Have you had your prom yet?

OOTD #36

Hello my loves, 

This is what I wore on Saturday for a spot of shopping with my sister, damage was done I must say, but I am in love with what I bought- lots of reviews coming soon!

Earrings- Primark

Leather jacket- ASOS

T-shirt- New Look

Watch- Olivia Burton 

Trousers- Next 

Socks- Topshop

Boots- New Look 

The eager eyed amongst you might remember these trousers from my last haul, I bloomin' love them! They are a different cut and style than what I'm used to to (I usually favor something skinny and highwaisted) however its nice to change things up every-now and then. The combination of crimson and plum and tartan is autumn/winter perfection in my book, so i'm am so glad I snapped these up in the sale.

My trust Olivia Burton was perfect for this outfit- side not I managed to get into the shower wearing this on Sunday night (well done Alice) so after the heart pounding realization that it I hadn't damaged it, I have kept it close at hand! 

I paired the trousers with my favourite boots, these go with everything- New Look really bring it when it comes to shoes.

I deiced on my stud earrings which I haven't worn in a little while, these were a bargain form good ol' Primark. 

I'm wearing one of my favourite nail polishes of the moment here- Topshop `Bad orchid` from the matte collection, It's defo not matte though! 

What do you think of this outfit? 

Haul: Shopping the sales.

Hi everyone, today I have a clothing haul for you.

 I haven't had a proper clothes shop in a while, so you can imagine I was thrilled when I found so many things I liked at sale prices! You might have noticed the lack of outfit posts around these parts, however now my wardrobe has had a little refresh, I should have far more to share with you. I want to apologist for the inconsistent quality of these images; the winter light makes things impossible!

I'll start with what i didn't pick up in the sales, these three tops are from good ol' Primark;

Polka dot top with collar - £6

You may have realised that I love anything with a collar, I'm a tad obsessed with them! Navy and white is a winning combination for me and I thought this was just so cute.

Textured daisy print top - £6

This isn't something I would usual gravitate towards, but it actually really like it. I tried it on and I was completely smitten! This is going to look so lovely in the spring with some high waisted jeans and leather accessories. 

Pink and white collared top - £8

Lastly is another collared top (I would say sorry but...) The classic pairing of pink and white got things off to a good start, but what really sold it was the overlapping of the collar, not something I've seen before! 

River Island Chelsea girl paisley printed top - £10 reduced from £22

River Island was high on my agenda for a spot of sales shopping, I always find some lovely hings in there. Although I didn't come away with a lot this time, I love what I did buy. I've actually already worn this (OOTD later this week) because I just love the print and the fit . I also think it was a pretty good price. Chelsea Girl is their retro collection, and we all now anything remotely vintage pulls on my heart strings! 

Topshop pajama shorts - £5 reduced form £12

I picked these up because in my eyes you can never have too many pj shorts, also the print and lace edging was too cute to resit. 

Topshop sleeveless plaid shirt - £12 reduced from £26

Ah I have wanted a shirt like this for so long! This is perfect for a pair of jeans and converse and I love the faded style of the colours. 

Next tartan trousers - £18 reduced from £38 

These are one of my favourite purchases, plus they had a great saving! I would never usually like red and purple but I think on these it just works. I've already thought about how I want to style these so look out for that :) 

New Look monochrome daisy print cami - £6 reduced form £12

This cami top is a perfect transitional piece and I'm hoping will look good with everything! I love the delicate daisy print so I'm sure I'll get a lot of wear out of this one.

Miss Selfridge coral strappy dress - £10 reduced from £40

This is definitely a summer item, but one I can't wait to wear. I seem to have purchased a few orange things which is not usually my colour but I can't seem to get enough of it at the moment. This is the ideal beach or park dress so I'll be wearing it a tonne when the weather eventually warms up. 

Miss Selfridge monochrome polka dot shirt - £15 reduced from £32 

This is definitely one of my favourite things I've bought in a while- I'm in love! The mix of large and mini dots is so eye catching and it looks great tucked into anything high waisted or worn over for a more tunic style.  

Urban outfitters gold and silver mix watch - £18 reduced form £37 

Finally, last but by know means least, I bought a new watch! This one caught my eye whilst browsing the Urban Outfitters sale and I had to order. I adore the mix of gold and silver as well as the subtle geometric face and the shape of the hands, but don't worry, my beloved Olivia Burton will not be neglected (how could it be?) I just fancied a bit of variation! 

It's my sister's Birthday today, so we're taking a trip to London, I shall report back as and when! 

What is your favourite form my sale picks? What have you found any gems this year? 

Empties #1

Hiya sweeties, 

This is my first empties post! I've been keeping a bottles and everything for this for a while so lets get started! 

Technically this shouldn't be in my empties, but we'll roll with it! We bought a L'Occitane set for my Mum for her birthday and this came in it. I was allowed to use this occasionally and boy is it nice! It makes the perfect amount of bubbles with just two cap fulls and leave your skin so soft when you get out of the tub. The scent is heavenly, and I'm not even one for lavender! 

Would I repurchase it? Perhaps, it's pretty expensive, but I'd defo buy it for my mum again!

This Simple makeup remover is a total staple for me, I find its just so gentle on my eyes and removes everything so easily. I have slightly sensitive eyes so I'm not overly worried about using things on them, but I'm sure if you were concerned about irritation then you wouldn't have to worry with this!   

Would I repurchase it? Of course! I was planning to replace it straight away but my Mum ended up buying me a Garnier one instead, we shall have to see how they compare. 

I was gifted this in a set in Christmas and I loved it! It's basically the Tesco version of Soap and Glory but I don't mind that. This smelt AMAZING. Seriously, I think I prefer it to the S&G scent! This creates just the right amount of bubbles, and although it's not half as luxurious as the L'occitane bubble bath, it's just as enjoyable!  

Would I repurchase it? I wouldn't go out of my way to, but I did love it! 

When I finished this I was impressed and sure I would go on using it, but since I decided to buy the Rimmel Match Perfection foundation to replace it, I haven't looked back! I find it matches my skin tone much better and lasts alot longer. I did like this foundation, but I've found something much better. 

Would I repurchase it? See above!

I'm sure you are aware that I want longer hair (who doesn't!) and I bought this conditioner , along with the rest of the range in the hope that it might speed up my the growth of my barnet. To be honest, I really don't like this conditioner. I found that unless I used the hair treatment thing beforehand, it did nothing for my hair. You know how a conditioner is meant to sort of sink into your hair and make it feel really soft and nourished? Well it looks like this products didn't get the memo. I mean its ok and perfectly pleasant, but it didn't condition my hair or seem to make it grow! 

Would I repurchase it?I don't think so, unless the formula or something was changed! 

I featured this primer in my June favourites, and I have loved it for a long time! If you haven't already, read that post to see why :)

Would I repurchase it? I already have, and will do forever! 

This is another product I have already repurchased, I'm not so into hair products so I haven't tried that many heat sprays, but this one does the job perfectly. 

It smells divine, protects my hair and leaves it super soft, so yeah!

Finally I have a perfume. Normally I would be sad to finish a perfume, but this one was about six pounds from Next, so there's no hard feelings :p I kept this in my school bag and always loved giving myself a spritz with it during the day :) This smells soo good, I actually really Next perfumes.  

Would I repurchase it?I keep meaning to, so hopefully at some point! 

And thats my first empties post! 

Have you tried any of these products? What have you finished lately?
