'A whole lot of knee'

Hello Everyone !

So Recently I've found myself getting into ripped jeans, and even used a old pair of jeans to creat a ripped jeans look. And might I add that considering my ability with a needle and thread I think I did pretty good. So I thought I would show you guys some of my favorite looks featuring ripped jeans. 

These can be super casual..

Or layered with a coat, scarf, beanie, etc. 

Whether you prefer denim ripped jeans or black skinny ripped jeans I feel like both styles are staple Items and I will definitely be on the look out for more. 
What's your favorite look? 
Love you lots !

My Favorite Winter Looks

Hello Everyone!

So winter is my all time favorite time of the year. The weather is cooler, they play Christmas music 24/7 on the radio, and not to mention the lights that get strung EVERYWHERE! Fashion ,one of my favorite topics, gets really hard to shop for because of all the madness that comes along with the holidays or stores get closed down, the lots. So I like to get some things here and there from shops and then make outfits with those things so I can really get experimentative. Without further adieu, here are some of my favorite winter looks that I will be looking for as a stencil. 

Minimal colors + booties

Tights + black ankle boots 

Long Messy hair 

Fashion staples 

Cute rain boots + grey coats

Skinnies + long coats 

Ankle boots + beanies 

Hope you liked this posts of my favorite winter things. 
What are somethings that you guys love during the winter?
Anything that you guys are in the search for, fashion wise?
Love you lots!

My Fashion Icons

Hello Everyone! 

We all go through these stages of fashion, and that's totally normal because to truly find your unique style you need to experiment a bit. Here are a few of my style icons that have influenced my style. 

Eleanor Calder

She is so gorgeous and doesn't really try to find things that are flashy. She always sticks to minimal and monochrome and then adds little to no make up. Naturally, gorgeous! 

Danielle Bernstein

I actually found out about her through Eleanor. Danielle runs a fashion blog called weworewhat and always dresses so nice! Once again Danielle doesn't dress over the top, but she does dress different and I like that she doesn't dress cookie-cutter. 

Danielle Peazer

Danielle Peazer always looks fabulous when she goes out with friends. She's really good about pairing accessories together and making sure that it's not too much. Natural make up and curly hair is the key for her, and she looks stunning. 

Zoe Sugg

There is absolutely no secret that Zoe (aka Zoella ) is well known to people who watch Tanya, Louise, Alfie, etc. Her style is a bit like Danielle B. and Eleanor's mixed together. I love her makeup during the winter especially when she adds cranberry eye shadow or bold lipstick to make her outfits more 'fancy' in a way. She also has a favorite orangey shade that she puts with her outfits during the summer. Zoe is my 'go to' so to speak for makeup if I want to try something new or figure out how she does hers. 

Tanya Burr

I love watching Tanya's 'makeup tutorials' and 'get ready with me's' on YouTube. She's such a good makeup artist and recently can't out with a beauty line and I could me more excited for her! 

Gabby (velvetgh0st

I love Gabby's makeup which is similar to Zoe's. Her outfits are a bit more girly and include a lot of pink. I'm not a big fan of pink but I do like how she puts things together. 

Hopefully you guys like this and if you have any questions or comments feel free to ask. 
Love you lots!

I went to LUSH!


Hello Everyone!

This post is long overdue but I was given the chance to spend a couple of days in Seattle Washington, and if it weren't for the crowds of people and the sales tax (grrrr.. No fun) I would probably move there. The weather was so pretty when I went there and the buildings were so tall. 
During my trip I went shopping (no surprise) and I was blown away at how many high-end stores there were. It was like a paradise for me. I went into Mac for the first time ever and nearly had a heart attack because I wanted everything, then when I was done in there I stumbled upon lush. And let me say I had only heard about lush through a couple of you tubers ( i.e. Zoella and Tanya Burr ) when they would do beauty hauls or talk about their favorites so I had to get something there. I love how their company is so environmentally friendly and the shop smelled like heaven. 

I bought a bath bomb called Avobath  This is perfect for feeling energized just "Splash about in the shimmery green waters and let the fresh avocados and olive oil soften you up and leave you with softer, supple skin". 

I also wanted to try out their face masks so after talking to an employee I decided in one called BB Seaweed . I have normal combination skin so I wanted something that was mainly moisturizing and this is perfect for sensitive skin; "this locally-harvested, nutrient-rich seaweed nourishes the skin, while finely ground almonds ever-so-gently exfoliate leaving skin perfectly smooth. [They] use a generous [helping] of aloe vera gel and rose absolute to calm and soothe sensitive spots, and a gorgeous combination of honey and olive oil to moisturize". 

** If you have any questions, comments or suggestion for a next blog posts feel free to leave a comment at the bottom.**
The exacts from the website are always linked in 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.
Hope you guys have a great day, and as always lots of love!
