After my last post regarding spooky nail art in preparation for Halloween, I thought I'd go on a hunt to find some good products to help create these designs. Although most of you would think of heading to boots or superdrug to buy your nail art necessities, lots of high street brands including River Island and Topshop have a range of nail design...
With Halloween fast approaching everyone is trying to come up with the perfect costume.

Now, I know some of you will be very much stuck in your ways when you buy magazines, returning loyally to the big glossies like Vogue and Elle or Company and Cosmo. Thats why I want to set you a challenge, to go out and buy a magazine you've never heard of before. We were recently set this challenge...
With halloween fast approaching, this post seems particularly appropriate. If you havent already come across some skeletal prints on the high street, no doubt you will do very soon. Most popularly on tights and leggings, these pieces are a fun easy way to add a bit of personality to your outfit, giving some spooky flare to a simple LBD or basic tee. As well...
I'm sure none of you have missed the crazy influx of peplums that have taken over the high street as we approach autumn, but one thing that has come as a surprise to me is the incredible variety of styles and textures that have accompanied this figure flattering shape. From leather to lace, aran knit to cool cotton summer styles, there is a peplum...

Coming towards the end of Summer can mean only one thing for the high street - an influx of coats. Hooded, cropped, fur or leather, there is an option to suit every style whilst keeping you snug on vile English winter days. However, there is a newcomer to the coat world that appears to have won over the hearts of buyers and designers...
£31.99 As we all know, the perfect LBD is essential to every girls wardrobe. So when this little beauty caught my eye on the missguided website I just had to share it with you. Black, studded, cut out and effortlessly chic - whats not to love? As we approach the autumn season with Christmas just around the corner (I know, I cant quite believe...
I have a new fashion must have this year, and it has come as a surprise to me whilst proving increasingly popular with the fash pack. Resurfacing from the depths of our wardrobes and consciouness, I am of course talking about cowboy boots. I have had a bit of a love affair with cowboy boots for a while now, but have always managed to talk...
I am seriously missing my pink hair. I love doing something different with my hair and changing it up, partly because I get bored of it so easily, so I'm always dying it or shaving various sections. Although I still really like the style of my haircut, it's currently a pretty bland brown colour after my purple faded out. With Reading Festival coming up...
I am the worst person in the world for having a messy handbag. I admit it. It's full of old train tickets, bus tickets, receipts and odd bits of paper as well as all the necessary essentials. I don't think I'm alone in this predicament however, as every girl I know suffers from the same untidy affliction. Therefore I decided to have a handbag clear...
This cute paw print jumper is adorable, and perfect for easy fashionable dressing. Creepers have been a big hit recently and I have to say I am not always their biggest fan, but paired with this cute longline jumper dress and gorgeous little pork pie hat I think they work really well. Accessorise with a skinny red waist belt if you want to...
I love grunge glam fashion because it’s so versatile, from really simple statement pieces to a hotchpotch of accessories and studs all piled on together in perfect harmony. To me this is the simple side of the look, with key statement pieces like leather trousers and a casual studded tee paired with simple jewellery and killer heels - very Kate Moss cool. Leather...
Unfortunately, England is not exactly known for its tropical climate. However, due to the trend for gorgeous, vibrant tropical prints this summer our wardrobes have experienced an influx of sunshine - whats not to love about that? Without fail, I am a monochrome girl at heart. Black in particular makes up a good 85% of my wardrobe, yet I have embraced this trend with open arms....
It seems that the Batman epidemic that has been taking over our cinemas has also infiltrated the fashion industry, inspiring designers such as Gemma Shiel - the mastermind founder of Lazy Oaf. This cult graphic illustration label initially started out in Spitalfields Market and has since progressed to be an iconic brand filled with punchy prints and 90's attitude. These Batman inspired items are...
One aspect of holiday shopping that can be a total nightmare all boils down to a very specific section of your wardrobe – swimwear. This is an area of fashion where it can all go horribly wrong very, very easily, from the daunting bandeau bikini that seems to give me the torso of a 12 year old boy to ill fitting bikini tops...
First and foremost, I apologise for my serious lack of posts lately. However, we have finally been on holiday! After sorting through my clothes countless times with the help of hundreds of lists, I managed to pack a weeks worth of clothes – although it looks like a tad more than a weeks worth I have to say. One of my favourite things...
FINALLY it is nearly time for my holiday, and I can't wait! We leave on the 7th, and I am already in full flow with my series of lists regarding what I'm taking and what I still need to buy. I decided to start packing some of my clothes already so that I wouldnt wear them before we go and thought I would...
