WEIRDO

Lazy Oaf Weirdo Bobble Hat - £20 ASOS*

GoGo Philip Dog Bangle - £4.50 ASOS

CREAM Necklace - £16 Galibardy

Block Heel Gladiator Sandals - £25 RiverIsland

 

I always say I'm going to stop buying and in all fairness I have been extremely good and curbed my spending! Ive even started my Christmas shopping now wooohooo!! The bobble hat I bought with a £20 ASOS voucher which was kindly given to me by AO.com back in August, I'd ummed and arred over what to buy with it and decided to spend it on something Id never usually splurge on! Because £20 is alot for a hat but this is a super niceeee, good quality, well made bobble hat and I think it sums me up pretty well haha! I love GoGo Philip jewellery and I saw this amazingggg dog bangle in the ASOS sale reduced from £14 and I had to have it, Its really heavy but in a good way! Perfect piece of statement wrist wear!! The CREAM Necklace is just the best thing ever, I love statement jewellery, this definitely makes a statement and looks toooo damn good on! River Island Sale just dropped and these had £30 off! I'm still undecided on whether its appropriate to keep them, given the time of year but they're definitely beautiful & I did lust after them all summer!! Have you been buying anything similar recently?

Sharpie Sugar Skulls

1. Apply two coats of white nail polish , I used Models Own Snow White

2. Using Sharpie permanent markers, draw on your sugar skull design using any colours you like

3. Apply fimo shapes for the eyes of your sugar skulls, then use diamante add more detail if you want to, then topcoat carefully.

 

Despite looking like this would take forever it really didn't! I simply applied two coats of white, let that dry completely and then used my limited edition 80's GLAM Sharpies to draw on all the details. I could have used nail art pens but I just wanted to try this with the Sharpies to see how it worked out! I then used nail glue to apply the fimo shapes and diamantés as the sugar skull eyes! Perfect for Halloween or any time of the year depending on how into skulls you are!! For anyone who might like to know, the Large skull in the background is a ceramic Halloween ornament I picked up from HomeSenses/TKMaxx , for £5.99! I'll be leaving this out in my room all year round now as I love it and its glittery haha!! The small skull is a candle which was from Topshop sale last year! what do you think of this Halloween Sugar Skull Nail art, will you be trying this out?

October be mine?

 Riverisland Lime Jumper - £35

Chanel Large Classic Flap Bag £3,315

Jean Paul Gaultier Classique EDP Anniversary Edition 100ml - £70

Jeffrey Campbell ICY Doll Platforms - $255

 

The 2nd week of October begins!! This wishlist is definitely one for a big lotto win!! Firstly I have a Riverisland gift card for £40..And I could get this jumper but I'm a bit put off of Riverisland knitwear because the last two jumpers Ive bought from there have been faulty!! But this colour and the way it feels is soooo  nice! I keep going in and eyeing up but I just don't want to be disappointed! The amount I want a Chanel classic flap bag is unreal, Ive wanted one since forever, I never bothered to find out how much they are as I always knew whatever the price it would be out of my price range.. after looking a few days ago...my thoughts were confirmed. I need to get over to Egypt to buy myself a dupe haha!! JPG Classique perfume is my ultimate most favourite perfume ever in the whole word, Ive repurchased it time and time again. Im running really low and with Christmas around the corner I'm hoping I'll get a bottle, This anniversary limited edition bottle is beautiful, I know the product inside is the same but these are like collectors items to me! ICY Doll Platforms, they're allover instagram..I LOVE these, I honestly think they're perfect. They probably shouldn't be as appealing as they are considering the platform is filled with dolls heads but to me these are just amazing! What do you think?? Is there anything similar on your wishlist?

Easy Gingham

1. Apply 2 coats of white nail polish

2.Using a light lilac nail polish draw on your horizontal & vertical lines to create the check

3. Using a slightly darker shade of lilac carefully darken the squares where the check lines cross over, Let dry & top coat

 

Easy peasy gingham nails! Colour is of course your own choice I chose lilac but I also really like pink and orange for this!! Its quick easy and the results are really cool and with gingham alot of the time the checks are made to look a bit free hand so getting extra straight parallel lines isn't really necessary!! all kinds of checks are in this season from gingham to tartan and hounds tooth so this definitely fits in with the trends! Will you be trying this out? Also this is actually my 200th post, check me out hehehe :) Thankyou to all my loyal and lovely followers and readers!!

MARDI Snaffle Loafers - £24

Tartan Socks & Head Scarf - £1.50 Each Primark

G4LIFE Camo Beanie - £15 Rihanna for RiverIsland

Chiffon B Baseball Shirt - £6.24 (With Discounts) H&M



 Just a little teeny weeny haul this time, and as September draws to an end I've made a vow to stop buying for me and start buying christmas presents...yep I said it! Christmas shopping already! Its my Mummas Birthday on Friday and I have all her presents ready to treat her and make her day special! Then when payday comes I'm ready to start squirelling away for Christmas :) 

How super amazing are the Mardi slippers? I fell in LOVE with them instantly, they're like me but in slipper form hehehe!! The socks look so damn cute with my Madam cut out boots , perfect for the tartan/check trends this season! I mentioned on my previous post about the rihanna collection I really liked alot of it this time round but I restricted myself to the beanie, which I

 love and I know I'll get alot of wear out of it as I'm known as the Beanie Queen during the Autumn/Winter months - I think I might buy myself a Lazy Oaf one too as I have a £20 voucher to spend on Asos but Im trying to be wise about it haha!! I might need to stock up as Ive heard some rumours about snow in October...In my opinion that would be the best thing EVER!!! Have you bought anything similar recently?

Proper Sparkler

 Models Own Fireworks Collection in 'Sparkler'

Models Own in Snow White

Buy One Get One Half Price @ Boots

     Left; Sparkler Over Snow White. Right; Sparkler Over Black Magic

 

When I first saw the campaign for the newest Models Own collection, I was instantly drawn to sparkler. After purchasing nearly 2 weeks ago now, I can honestly say its probably one of the the best glitter nail polishes I've ever owned - and theres been a few!! I wanted to show you it over white and black as its so versatile. Over white the holographic pieces aren't as apparent but they're still noticeable and give off a little sparkle. My favourite way to wear this is over Black, at work everyone complimented me on my nails and asked if I was wearing Minx or any other brand of nail wrap! It goes on quickly and easily and looks soooo good! I find sometimes with Models Own 'new' collections sometimes they're just already existing products re-merchandised, but I've never come across this particular style of glitter in their collections and I own most of the nail polishes they sell! Id definitely recommend this if you're looking for something sparkly for fireworks/party season or to just get your holographic fix!! Have you tried any nail polishes from the fireworks collection? Can you recommend any amazingly perfect white nail polishes?

 

Don't forget you have until tonight to enter my GiVEAWAY , I will draw and post the winner on Monday as I'm away for the weekend and wont be by my laptop! Also check out MY EBAY for stiletto nails ending on Sunday!!

Have a great weekend!!

Gold Triangle Hoops - £5.50

 Fimo Flower Collar Necklace - £5.50 Sale

Fimo Flower Hair Elastic - £2.50 Sale

Skeleton Cameo Earrings - £3.50 Sale

 

This is a collective haul of things I have bought from topshop recently from Lakeside and when I visited a friend in Norwich last week!! Everyone knows I'm crazy about Topshop jewellery and shoes, I'd been in love with these boots for ages but had'nt bought them as the weather was a bit too hot! But now finally some rubbish weather to ease us into autumn... and some new boots to go with :) The alphabet letters were supposed to have a necklace with them to make your own name chain, but there was no chain..although I know the chain was tiny anyway so I'm thinking I'll make myself a cute name or word bracelet..also fully recyclable so I can change it with my mood!! The skeleton cameo earrings are probably one of my favoirite buys of this year, they're soo effing cool, they remind me of something from a Tim Burton Movie!! Have you been buying anything similar recently? Check out MY EBAY if you're after some funky handpainted stilletto nails and dont forget to enter my giveaway which closes on Saturday!!

Floral Fancies

Jersey Slouch Top - £7.99 H&M

MADAM Cut Out Lace Up Boots - £38 Topshop

Superquilted Blue Chain Shoulder Bag - £150 Love Moschino

Multi Row Chunky Chain - £28 Topshop

Barry M Blueberry I/C - £2.99 Superdrug

High Waisted Belted Floral Trousers - £35 Riverisland

 

This outfit is based around these beautiful high waisted trousers. I spotted these online at River Island a few weeks ago and I keep going back and looking at them. I'm pretty sure I'm gunna haveeee to buy them as they're just soooo nice & I've already bought the MADAM boots tehehe!! I can just imagine wearing them with the ankles rolled a little, a simple top and cut out boots or creepers. They're so 90's which is perfect for the trends that are around at the moment. Ive wanted a Love Moschino bag for a few years now, this is from the newest collection available at House Of Fraser. I think it would look great with an outfit like this as colours can be a little dull as we roll into A/W but accessories are the perfect way to keep outfits bright and lively. How would you style floral trousers for the change of season?

90's Smileys

 1. Apply 2 coats of white nail polish

2. Using a yellow nail art pen apply large yellow spots randomly over the nail

3. Use a black nail art pen to outline your smiley faces and add the details. Let dry & topcoat.

heyaaa, back with another nail art tutorial!! I am in love with this, it was inspired by a kimono I saw on The Style Playlist. This is relatively straight forward, The most annoying part of this is the white base I guess - as I always find white takes quite a while to be completely dry and can apply quite streaky. I'm really happy with the end result though!! Hope you're all enjoying the last bank holiday weekend of 2013 :)  What do you think ? Will you be trying this out?

Lion Necklace - £4.99 Ebay
 Dog T-shirt Dress - £10 RiverIsland

Cheetah Print Shirt - £17 M&S

Neon Spike Drop Necklace - £3 NewLook

Gold Love Hoops - £4.99 NewLook

Arizona Eagles Sweater - £40 Riverisland

 

Here is my latest haul, Bought a jumper hehehe I'm getting myself prepared for the cold months, the Riverisland jumper you will know from my august wishlist, I really really wanted. I actually picked it up later that day whilst I was at Lakeside. I absolutely love it! The t-shirt & shirt my mumma got me whilst she shopping the sales, the shirt is so similar to one Zara did last A/W - I'll definitely get alot of wear out of it!! The New Look neon spike necklace was a bargain reduced from £9.99 , I dont really like necklaces too dangly and long but this one is actually ok as the chain is pretty short so it still qualifies as a short statement necklace in my book! The gold hoops...well probably the ultimate piece of tack but I loveeee them!! Have you bought anything similar recently?

1. First I used my Urban Decay Eye Primer, and Foxy from the Naked Basics pallet, to give me a good, clean base to work with. 

2. Using a flat eye-shadow brush I applied my MUA eye-shadow in Shade 24 all over my lid, taking it slightly above my crease, to have something to blend the darker shades in with. 

3. I like to create a winged look with my eye-shadow, which is why I took a thin eye-shadow brush (you could also use an eyeliner brush) to draw on where I would like my eye-shadow to end. The colour I used for this is MAC's Sketch. 

4. This picture shows how I've blended in Sketch with Shade 24, right down to my inner corners. I do this using small circular motions with a blending brush, I also like to blend slightly around the eye and gently along the original line I created to soften it a little. Once I had done this I wasn't quite happy with the shade, and so used a little of Crave from the Naked Basics pallet to blend around the edges a tiny bit. 

5. To finish off the look, I first added a small line of Crave on the outer corners of my eye, then blended that with Sketch to around the middle of my water line. After this I took Shade 24 and blended that almost right to my inner corners, completing the look by adding a little of Venus from the Naked Basics onto my inner corners. I always put concealer under my eyes for good measure at the end of every eye-shadow look!

Multi Leopard

 1. Apply 1 or 2 coats of a light beige nude nail polish.

2. Using a fairly dry brush dot a mink colour nail polish allover the nail.

3. Randomly add Orange patches over the nail.

4. Add your yellow nail polish, again randomly over the nail.

5. Dot on a few patches of turquoise nail polish.

6. Using a dark burgundy nail polish draw on an abstract leopard print over the top. Let dry & topcoat.

This nail art is inspired by another Topshop item, this top HERE which also comes with matching pants witwoo twosie!! I love how the print is so abstract but its still clear its leopard. This one is ridiculously easy, you couldnt go wrong! Takes about ten minutes and Im really happy with the results. What do you think of this ? Will you be trying it out?
