Fashion Review: Back-to-school

Hello Everyone! 

So schools upon us and I am in no way of a hurry to speed the days up. Unfortunately there is nothing I can do to to soften the blow of 'back-to-school' shopping so I thought I would share some of my favorite beauty things that would be perfect for school as well. 
DISSCLAIMER: I'm sorry for anyone who goes to more of a conservative school or a school that you might have to wear a uniform. You might have to make it work around the rules of your school. 

Watches? You may ask, yes they are not the most exciting thing but they spruce up any outfit. And keep you aware of the time, which is extremely important for someone like me who tend to be a bit late very often.

Half up Half down Too knot Bun wow I could do a whole post about this hairstyle. This is literally one of my favorite go-to lazy day hairstyle besides a messy bun. You can do these several different ways and make them look more clean cut or curl your hair, put sea salt or hairspray for texture and body or straighten your hair, but u much or gore a natural messy look like the picture above.

Another shoe favorite the SHANTAE BLACK SNAKESKIN PRINT PUMPS  from missguided. These are so cute, goes with anything and I love how they just slip right on. Because sometimes you need to rush out real fast and don't want to bother putting on tennis shoes. 

Nail polish! So I have been wearing mainly these three colors on my hands and toes and I just think they match my pale complexion quite nicely. 


 What are some favorites that you have been loving? 
I hope all of you have a good day, and as always lots of love!

Bits and Bobs

Hello Everyone! 

So this is little haul of things that I had gotten recently. My birthday had passed and I got money for babysitting so u decided to put all the things together and make another beauty haul. I love hauls, honestly didn't matter what kind of haul it is I find my self being sucked in. It also gives me a chance to see what others are enjoying as well. 

Beaded chunky necklace I've always wanted to get a chunky necklace because these are supper easy to make an old sweatshirt and a pair of jeans look more put together. These are also good to wear with a black pen oak skirt and a pastel cami for going out to dinner or possibly a business meeting. 
Grey v-neck top This is just a simple top to wear for a lazy day, but you could also pair it with some heels and make it look more dressy. 

Black lace cami (similar to the Lace Insert Cami  from Topshop) once again this an Item I have wanted for the longest time. I think this cami is so pretty and could go with anything really. 

NARS Foreplay Orgasm Cheek Palette  & NARS 'Angelique' lip gloss I saw the blush palate in a beauty favorites from Gabrielle (aka Velvet Ghost)  and she gave it a good review so I thought I would try it as well. Plus I really like the brand NARS so I was bound to get it at some point. 

Mix No. 6 Ricky Bootie shoes  (similar to the ASOS ATTACK Leather Cut Out Gladiator Ankle Boots ) from DSW Oh my gosh I don't know what to say about these shoes. I don't know if you know this but I have somewhat of a shoe obsession so this store was like paradise. I had never really heard of this store before but I had gotten a gift card to DSW and if you have a shoe obsession like me you have to check out this store.  As soon as I found these I knew I had to get them. These were actually on sale plus they gave me an additional % off because I bought them around my birthday so I got these super cheap and I absolutely love them to pieces !  


I really hope you guys liked this post and I hope I don't come across rude or showboat in any way. I wanted to share my goodies and maybe give you guys sine ideas too. Well I hope you guys have a good day, and as always lots of love!

The exacts from the website I used to make the outfits are always linked to the description so if you see that in fact it is sold out you could browse around their website and window shop or look for something similar.

Lottie with Love

Hello everyone! 

Going through several blogs I have noticed this somewhat new clothing line that I originally heard about from Lottie Tomlinson, on her instagram, who is I believe an ambassador for the line. The whole line Loveclothing is similar to Topshop and Primark but they have their own special thing that makes it so unique. I love that fact that the clothes are different and all the patterns and colors are so pretty for summer. So I thought I would show you some of my favorite looks at the moment from Lottie's line, Lottie with Love.

White daisy oversized mesh top of this doesn't scream summer than I don't know what else does. 

Pink waffle jumper really love how light this is and you could make this super casual or pair it with a chunky necklace and make it dressy. 

Retro Coco dress (top)
Shortsleeve monochrome dress (bottom) 
Just because these two are very similar I decided to group them together. I love these designs because there very simple and very flattering on anyone. Plus you could easily make them look more dressy. 

Horse print swing shift dress Annd the last one, I really love the print on this dress because it is so unique and different from anything I've ever seen before. It is definitely in my shopping cart.

I'm doing this all on mobile so I can't link any of the items but if you would like to shop the looks I have shown you all you have to to is either google 'Lottie with love' or go to the loveclothing website and look under the tab women's then look under collections and 'Lottie with love' should be there.

Summer Clothes Haul Part 2




Hello Everyone! 


So here is part two of the Summer Haul post that I had posted previously which you can view here. Like I said these are some things that had bought for summer over a period of time. 

       Skincare
 Just some little things for my skin and hair..
Anti-bacterial/ hair grips/ body creambody butter
I have never really tried any body butter or body creams,
so i decided to give it a try. The body cream is Shea butter and 
doesn't really have a sent. The body butter smells AMAZING. 
it is fruity, of course, and fresh. So good!

       Makeup

eyebrow brush because I needed one since mine broke./ blending eye brush for eye shadows.
A zit zapper that claims it can help prevent blemishes so I thought I would try that./ 

A wet gloss lash & brow clear mascara. One side is used to shape the eyebrows, the other is used like regular mascara. /And just some mascara that I find works pretty well. 



One thing I am excited about trying is a new bronzer. I have hear wonderful things about the wet n' wild bronzer's so I grabbed one./ Next I bought two blushers, a coral one which is perfect for summer and a slightly more pinkish one./ I was looking FOREVER for the wake me up concealer but I could not find it so I just went with e.l.f. So I f anyone could help me find the wake me up concealer that would be fantastic. 

       Tops
Striped crop-top
I thought this would be super cute with skinny jeans or 
some denim jeans and some converse. 

Cheetah-print crop top
You could really play this up or make it super
casual, and it is cheetah print so I had to grab it. 

black tank top
Everyone needs this basic top in there closet. 

mint top
I absolutely love this color. Even though the picture
I took is terrible, sorry. 



Aztec print crop top
This is kind of an out-of-the-box- top for me
and I wanted to give it a try. The print is really pretty and
i love how it is such a busy top that you can add a solid color to this 
and make it look really nice. Plus you could maybe add a big and bold necklace
to add color, or some orange or red heels would also look good as well. 

Pastel lavender collared top
Okay, I know what you may be thinking because someone gave
me the same reaction. It does look like an old top but I love this lavender 
color and I think that you could accessorize it or add a jumper
or put it under dungarees and make it look cute and not like you stole it from the lady
who talks to her flowers across the street. 

       Shoes
Because who doesn't love shoes..

Brown strappy low heels
I have been wanting a pair of these for such a long time. 


The classic cork wedge

THE END

Sorry for the pictures. This is like my billionth time taking them because my sd card
 got erased. Grrrrr! Whew! So there ya go love you lots 
and as always, hope everyone has a good day!
