Black Listed.

Leather Look Skirt NewLook £19.99 // Pyramid Cuff Juicy Couture £100 // Big Gem Sweat Topshop £38 // Platform Wedge Boots H&M £29.99 // Spike Leather Collar Topshop £18.50 // Cross Stud Laptop Bag Topshop £22.
 
Happy Halloween everyone. I thought I'd put together my all black wishlist for the occasion! I Love black at this time of year. Gets me in the mood for party season and looks gorgeous when teamed with jewels, Black doesnt have to be gothic, but even if it is I love it. The skirt above I have actually ordered (uh oh) and everything else I would love too, so they'll be on my christmas list. The Cross stud bag is actually a laptop case...but I would not waste that baby on a laptop that never leaves the house! Do you have anything similar on your wishlist? Tonight I'm gunna watch Hocus Pocus like the good old days!Tomorrow its November already! Eeeeek , thats something to scream about. Im actually gunna start my christmas shopping tomorrow night after work! Wish me Luck! Hope you have a good Halloween, even though I know most people have already celebrated!!!

Express Hydration. Literally.

          Nivea Daily Essentials Express Hydration Primer
 
I came across this product while I was at work,It had been sent in by Nivea. I had a look at it and thought it looked good. So I made a note and bought it a few days later. The one in the office was the dry to combination skin one. I decided to get the normal to combination , as sometimes my skin can get a little oily and I dont really suffer from dry skin on my face. Express Hydration Primer is an intense moisturiser and a primer. Its not like any other standard primer I've ever tried. Its very light and makes your skin feel super soft. So if you want to try this, dont expect it to be anything like primers from Benefit, Mac, L'oreal etc. To be honest im not really into reviewing things, but I really like this product. It makes your skin sooo soft and is definitely brightening, skin feels smoother and softer for hours after application. And when worn under make up, it definitely looks fresher and lasts longer. I'd definitely recommend this to you guys. I picked this up in Superdrug for £3.99. Alsoooo maybe you can help me out now? Ive been looking everywhere for a good make up fixing mist to try? Any suggestions?

Halloween Monster Nails.

This is what I used, just to show you..But you can use which ever colours you like!!
 1. Apply your chosen base colour and let it dry.
2. Apply a very fine glitter nail polish to give it a mysterious vibe.
3. With your nail art pen, draw on a monster shape, this could be anything.
 4. Add the googlie eyes to the damp polish, or use the nail art pens to draw the eyes.
5. Draw a mouth shape with the black nail art pen.
6. Add teeth to your monsters mouth. Let dry & apply a topcoat.
 
As people are celebrating halloween this weekend mostly, I thought I'd make a funky tutorial for you all! Its quick, easy and super cool monster nails. great for halloween or whenever. Obviously you can use which ever colours you like, go mental! You cant really go wrong with this , if they look ugly...thats even better hahaha! Let me know if you try it out :) and show me photos - I would loveeee to see them!

Want Brows Like Mine?

Sleek Brow Kit - Extra Dark


I get alot of compliments on my eye brows, god knows why because I'd rather have different ones hahaha!! And as I just repurchased this Sleek Browkit for the 4th or 5th time, I thought I'd show you my daily essential to get my brows looking acceptable. Alot of people rave about Benefit Browzings..But at the silllyyyyy price of £22.50 I think its a little toooo expensive. Sleek MakeUP Browkit is 100% the perfect dupe! It comes in four different colour choices, being: Medium, Dark, Extra Dark & Black. I use the Extra Dark. It costs £8.50 and lasts me for probably 6+ Months!! The kit contains wax, setting powder, 2 brushes and a mini pair of tweezers. Basically you use the tweezers when you need to , to get rid of any stray hairs. Using the slanted angle brush you apply the wax to your brows to create the desired shape, then you dab the powder carefully over your brows to set them. And there you go! I always shape my brows by hand but I know there are paper cut outs that some people use? Which you could definitely use to assist you with this browkit. Have you tried Sleek MakeUp Browkit?
My giveaway ends tonight so pleaseee enter if you havent already! The winner will be drawn and posted over the weekend!!

Dalston Studios.

Sorry for the picture heavy post (Not Sorry)

Friday I assisted my first shoot with Mizz. It was a longggg day, I left my house at 7:20am and didnt get home until 7:30pm. But boyyyy was it worth it. We got to the studio in Hackney around 9am, I was amazedddd, it wasnt what I anticipated at all! We walked in through the door up 4 flights of stairs and at the top a hugeeeeee warehouse type area full of Sofas, chairs, toys, beds, everything! I'd definitely live somewhere like that if I could! Would be so fun! It reminded me of something out of Skins. We shot three stories each consisting of 4 outfits. I havent pictured all of them, just a few of my favourites! I took around 130 photos, so these are just a few to give you a little insight to my day! I absolutely loved it! Everyone was soo nice there were 7 of us there all girls, So it was quite a relaxed atmosphere and very fun! How gorgeous is Model Grace? She was so sweet too.The Carousel horse was one of my favourite items in the studio so I was happy we got to use it in the party outfit photos :) I'm sooo glad I went , it was one of the best days ever! I cant wait to go on the next one which is in a few weeks time, but is a beauty shoot..so will be a difference experience altogether! Hope you like the photos :)

Eccentric Creeping.

Office Eccentric Creepers In Leopard - £20
 
 
Last week I was feeling pretty sorry for myself! In pain and utterly bored, missing work etc etc! My mum took pity on my sad face and bought me a little treat to cheer me up! It did help bless her hehe! I absolutely love these I have worn them a few times already and theyre very comfy! I think these also come in plain black and in navy blue! Theyre not so much a creeper but a thick sole! Which I like, I have the Underground Creepers in plain black and they're a great staple in my wardrobe! These are perfect for the change of season and theyre a bit different which is nice :) My mum knows exactly what I like & these were the nicest treat everrrrr!!! Im a lucky little git hahaha!! I really love the shoes in Office but I'm sometimes a bit put off by their return policy...being that you can only get a credit note and not a cash refund! Have you been buying anything from Office lately?

October Be Mine?

RiverIsland Tube Pants £30 //  Office NightHawks Leopard £85//ASOS Link Detail Belt £18
All Knitwear Stripe Bobble Hat £45// Topshop Victorian Collar Necklace £18.50
I recently got the Riverisland Rib Pants (Riding Pants Dupes), which are cut in the same way as these babies! And seeing as my Ribbys fit like a dream, I think it would be insane not to invest in something similar in this beautiful blood red tone!Definitely gunna be mine! I have the black Office NightHawks as you probably know, and I'll maintain that getting them was one of the best decisions I've ever made! So If I happen to win the lottery sometime soon, the pony leopard version will definitely be on my list of things to grab, I saw them in store the other day aswell and they are just tooo beautiful!! The Belt..I love, but I dont find I wear belts to be on show very often but it is veryyyy nice!! Now this beenie bobble hat is soooo effing cool and I'd definitely wear it..but this defines why posts like this are a wish list..at £45 I definitely wont be buying it...I dont care who you are - spending £45 on a bit of wool is just silly!!! Lastlyyyyy , I dont know why Topshop keep making such beautiful jewellery , its like they want to torture my life!...I'd happily buy most of the Freedom Range but this is particularly beautiful!! What do you think? Anything similar on your wish list?

MORE Models Own..

 3-in-1 TopCoat, Naked Shimmer, Feeling Blue, Snow White, Buff Pink.
 
I know my ModelsOwn collection is already way out of control, but when the 50% sale is on, what can you do? I was in hospital when the sale dropped but luckily I saw it, so ordered from my phone!! Yay for technology!  I ordered pretty pale colours, which is unlike me really! But they're very wintery which I love! Feeling Blue & Naked Shimmer are the only two I havent tried..seeing as I am pretty much an addict! Cant wait to wear Feeling Blue, I love a bit of blue nail polish but getting the right tone is sometimes a bit tricky! Im hoping this will  be the one!! Naked Shimmer is a beigey tone with gold running through it, I'm not sure how apparent that is in the photo. Ive got really into beige toned nail polish so when I saw this with the gold in it too... I knew it would be special!! The Models Own sale is now over...sooo booo you if you missed it!! I'll swatch any of these if you want me to, and I've got a few designs in mind so I'll show you those too :)
