Packing Up My Life

I'VE MOVED HOUSE! Well... flats. I've spent the past few weeks packing up my life to move into the most incredible flat. I'm still in London but just gone for a fancy little upgrade. During this process I learnt three things; 1) I hate packing with every fibre of my being, 2) I own far too much stuff, but above all, I have some serious muscles! Which well and truly came into play when doing about 50 trips up and down 2 flights of stairs with all my materialistic belongings. I'm talking 10 ikea sized bags of clothing. Yeah, I hate me too.

So here's a picture of a pretty summer outfit (from my mountain of clothing) to go along with this random heat wave. This post was originally called 'So Friggin Cute' because it's the only way I can think to describe this top. Paired with my favourite skirt right now, and my pretty Zara heels, I think I've managed to find the outfit I will be living in this summer.

Minus the fact I have to find a new place to take my pictures, I am going back to posting 3 times a week, so feel free to give me a little follow so you don't miss out on all of the excitement!

P.S. Lets all laugh at how awkwardly I stand and that massive cheesy grin!

You're So Gross

I am the worst at online shopping, and not in the way my bank balance wishes. In the way that if I see something I like online - whether thats on a blog, a youtube channel on an Instagram - I am straight through that little link, putting in my card details quicker than you can say; "Do you really need that top that says 'Gross' on it in sequins?". The answer to that questions btw, is HELL YEAH! 

Anywho, check me out looking all blogger like. Impractical heels, leather over my shoulder and sunglasses on on a evidently overcast day, sorry if I'm ruining the illusion for you all, but we all know that I'm not exactly at home behind the camera. So feel free to give me a pat on the back or leave me a round of applause in the comments!

Sadly this skirt, (being one of my favourites in my suede obsessive collection) has recently dropped off of the Missguided website, I have however left you some pretty alternatives below, which should fill the khaki midi shaped hole you now feel.

3 Oily Skin Foundation Reviews - High End & High Street

I have weird skin. Weird skin for the fact that I don't really get spots and I have a pretty even skin tone, but before you go ahead and hate on me for that, I must add that I do have incredibly oily skin. I'm talking crappy foundation only lasting an hour, and detailed contouring or bronzer on top of that only about half an hour, so because of this reason, I am a huge fan of matte finishes. So the reason I wear foundation is not to cover up but to reduce shine.

I feel like I'm completely alone in this area, as every blog I read and every Youtuber I watch, seems to be desperately looking for high coverage and a dewy glow, neither of which appeals to me. So my hunt is a pretty lonely one, but there must be others like me, so recently I tested 3 foundations; 1 high end, 1 middle ground and 1 high street. All heavly researched and all with the potential to be my new holy grail...

My Celine Bag Dupes

I was so excited to post this, for no other reason than the fact that I am completely in love with these bags! The Celine bags, are honestly what I would consider my dream bag. The day I own one of them, will be the day I will have of made it in this world, not to appear completely materialistic and shallow or anything.

I came across these bags at my local shopping centre on a little independent kiosk, and although not my usual shopping scene, I instantly did a double take and ended up buying both at once for only £38! They are such good quality and perfect size for my laptop - as well as the abundance of other stuff I lug around with me on a daily basis - and although I usually hate gold hardware, on this occasion I will make a well deserved exception!

I actually hate handbags. I am well and truly partial to a good clutch, but when it comes to the full sized shebang, I think I am just far too hung up on designer handbags and feel that the high street just seems to fall incredibly short in that area! Anyone agree?  

(Sorry no links for you today, I think I picked up the only 2 on offer)

Summer Suede

So while I'm busy prepping some pretty Barcelona picture for you all, here's another goofy photo stood up again this brick wall. I promise you I could produce better pictures then this, since I have dreams of working in Shoot Coordination, unfortunately I can't strut the strut and my "photographer' barely knows how to take a picture, so this is as good as it gets right now. Does this make me quirky and relatable?

This is my dream jacket. I'm having a bit of summer suede moment right now, and managed to buy 3 things in this exact fabric and shade in one swift swipe of my bank card, although this may seem slightly excessive, this jacket cost me about £50 (translated from euros) and is the most amazing quality, fit and style! Plus it has silver hardware!! Put a silver zipper something and I'm all over it, because the high street seems to have a massive obsession with gold, and i'm just not feeling old enough yet to lace myself in expensive gold jewels. I'm still over here seeking out the silver (soon to turn green) accessories, and I'm not into mixing my metals, even if it is just a eyelet on my shoe!

Let me know in the comments if you feel my pain...
