warm,minimal effort yet smart outfit of the day! #autumn

Bag-H&M

Coat-Primark

Beetles Top-H&M

Jeans-TOPSHOP

Chelsea Boots-TOPSHOP

Necklace-Primark

Bit of a safe option here wearing blacks/white/greys! looks like you've put a bit of effort into your outfit for them days where you have No time for yourself! (STORY ON MY LIFE)

Loveeeeee this coat definitely my buy of the month! had one the spitting image in TOPSHOP but when I tried it on it didn't feel like it sat right and did me no justice.

when I saw an identical one in Primark though I couldn't resist a little sneaky try as it was only £25, well I'm glad I did now! I personally think this ones much nicer plus about £50 cheaper?

cant go wrong really! Another star buy this month are my Joni TOPSHOP jeans which are the best. go with anything and I loveeee that there high waisted as they hold everything in a little ( if you have a bit of a blubber belly like me you will appreciate this random fact  ) I have these in navy and black but I've worn my navy ones sooo much they've gone baggy at the knees :( this is a massive hate of mine with jeans.

please feel free to follow me on bloglovin, twitter, Facebook and GFC as I need to talk to more bloggers plus I always follow back! :D

and feel free to comment your blog address below and ill check it out!

lots of loveeee

Autumn evening outfit

 

 

 

Leather Jacket £30 - H&M

Dress - £25 TOPSHOP 

Silver chain - £7.99 H&M

Boots - £20 (SALE) TOPSHOP

I wanted to do a post on the sort of thing i would wear on a night out when the weather gets really bitter and the last thing you wanna go out in is next to nothing.

I feel really comfortable with this look as its smart but not too girly, its also flattering because of the elastic in the dress around the waist then the loose material skims over my stomach. I wouldnt have to worry about getting a bloated belly if i was going for a meal before hand etc.

I think a leather jacket is abit of a must have as its suitable for most occasions day or night. It always makes a statement with every outfit. I wore my first one so much i recently had to replace it :( 

Since being at uni ive had barely anytime to look at my blog. I've also gone abit tits up when it comes to my weightloss as ive been comfort eating chocolate due to stress (thats my excuse anyway). Hopfully i can get control on it again as i really dont wanna be a whale for my 21st! I just want to put all my effort into my uni work as its my priority.

DIY Gel nails.

 First of all i'll start with an apology for neglecting my blog :( 

If you have Firefox you may of been having some issues with Blogger like i have! It stopped me posting for a while and with moving back to birmingham for uni i have been non stop for about a month! But i promise to start posting regular again as i have no excuse! 

anyway MOVING ON...

 If you have discusting stubby chewwed nails and man hands like me, this post is for you!

 I was originally spending £30 a month getting acrylic nails just so my hands would look presentable but then i became a broke student WAH.

so for the last two years i've just been putting up with them. 

Then me and friend emma were out shopping and came across this product! 

 Nailene ULTRA QUICK brush on gel kit, Superdrug £12

You get two sets of nails

, french and clear. We thought it was deffinately worth giving a go for that price!  

 Heres a step by step on how we applied these gel nails.

WARNING:  The instructions werent very clear so it was half guess work!

 Buff the nail so it had a rough surface.

 Brush on the back of the nail that fits your finger with some of the Ultra quick Brush-on Gel Overlay.

 

 Hold down for a while so it sets nicely.

 brush on the Ultra quick Gel Activator so its blends into your natural nail

 file down the false nail into your own nail to make it look natural.

 Brush on a top layer of the Ultra quick Brush-on Gel Overlay and leave to dry.

 

TA DAA! 

These were the finished look! Not too bad for saying it was a first attempt! 

i will warn you that it did smell a bit so doing it somewhere quite open is ideal. I did it in my garden but it was nice weather for a change so i didnt mind.

Thanks for reading my post and let me know what you think if you decide to give this product a go.

WIWT #4

____________________________________________________________________________________________♥________

Yes i have no make up on in these photos. I dont wear it everyday as i like to give my skin a break and i dont think its a bad thing to go out bare faced occasionally! 

Blazer - Charity shop £8

Top - Topshop £18

Shorts - Topshop £32

Boots - Topshop £20

Necklace - Primark  £4

Belt - Primark £4

My new favourite thing at the moment is blazers! They make any outfit look smarter and they are so comfy but flattering. I love this one especially because its black so goes with most outfits. Another thing i love about it is its a size 12! i could'nt tell you the last time i wore something size 12! haha.

The shorts i brought i absolutely love because you can mix and match them to make them suitable for different seasons. I would like to say though TOPSHOP denim short sizes are rubbish. I am not a size 16 anymore as half my wardrobe swamps me, but it's only now their size 16 shorts fit me. So many girls i know have been really disheartened when theyve picked up their size and they cant even do up the buttons. Just remember that all shop sizes are different and not to let it get to you! :)

No7 skin care gift set.

___________________________________________________________♥________

So every Christmas i get given a large amount of lotions and potions because my family know how much i love trying new products and keeping good care of my skin. The only problem is because i get SO much it takes me months to get through it all! 

I actually forgot about this No7 skincare set i was given, I only found it because i fancied a bit of a pamper night. I'm so glad i did! Unfortunately i can’t give the prices of these products as they were presents but if you look on the boots website i'm sure they will be on their :)

I decided because I’d never used any of these products before I’d use them all, review each one and give my honest opinions.
