Holiday OOTD: The Orange and Off-Shoulder

Orange is a colour that most people seem to be put off; me being one of them. But when I spotted this top in Forever 21, thought I would give it ago as I love the off-shoulder loose look. Pairing a loose crop top with a this denim skater skirt(mine's from ASOS, which you may recognise from many bloggers) looks super cute, keeps you from feeling self-conscious as it is not figure hugging and it's is comfortable in the hot weather.

Holiday OOTD: White top and White Walls

White top and White Walls! 
An Instagrammer's dream 

If you saw my last blog post, you will see that I was away in Fuerteventura and so I took advantage of my beautiful surroundings to snap some OOTD's! 

I fell in love with this white floral crop top. Crop tops are a difficult one for me due to confidence issues and it's something I am working on but pairing them with high waisted jeans/shorts/skirts work a treat!

White Crop Top: Forever 21
Black A Line Denim Skirt: Asos

RSU SUMMER BALL - ootd

Outfit of the Day

My university's annual summer ball has two parts; day and evening...it is also a time that all the students like to show off what they wear! Here is what I wore during the day. I am definitely not a fashionista and definitely not the slimmest of people but on this particular day, Asos had just delivered me the skirt I am wearing after 3 weeks of being out of stock and I was beyond happy :D

Summer Beauty Essentials 2014

Here are 11 products I have been loving this summer and using endlessly! 

Essie Lollipop- Nail polish in a fab lollipop red!

Garnier Ultimate Blends The Marvellous Transformer- This shampoo contains the highly acclaimed Argon oil and Camellia oil. My hair is quite wavy/curly and has the tendency to frizz, but this shampoo leaves it soft, shiny and smelling lovely. 

Toni and Guy Sea Salt Spray- Spray over damp hair and it gives texture and tousled waves that look like you've been on the beach all day and night!

Batiste Dry Shampoo (travel size)- No need to explain this one, dry shampoo is a saviour for all. These travel sized bottles are brill for on the move- a must for my daily handbag.

Avene Thermal Spring Water- Great for a quick refreshing boost in summer; just spritz all over your face. Also perfect soother for burns, heat rash and irritated skin. Used this baby on holiday so much; great for hot sweaty weather.

Simple Cleansing Wipes

Revlon Lip Butter Candy Apple- Lip balm and lipstick put together..incredibly moisturising. You can build up the colour to be as bold or as faint. Fab for day and night! Plus, red is one that suits almost every skin tone. 

Vaseline- no need to explain.

Boots Extracts Vanilla Body Spray- in this weather, strong perfumes are too much for me..I'm all for body sprays and mists. I used to use Boots Natural Collection Vanilla Body Spray, but they discontinued the collection last year which was a complete disappointment. However, they then released this. It's light, refreshing and has a lovely sweet vanilla scent. Great alternative to perfume and I've used it most days this summer! (AND IT'S FAIR TRADE!)

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water- Must have high-street cleansing water, very cheap and works like a gem. I use it every morning/night after using a face wash and it takes off any traces of make up as well as dirt that has built up as well as leaving my skin feeling refreshingly clean. In summer I tend to cut down on the foundation and heavier make up and head straight for the eye liner and mascara (Maybelline Rocket Volume Waterproof). This cleansing water effortlessly removes all eye make up - yes! even water proof mascara! 

Florals in Spring? Groundbreaking; OOTD

(Devil Wears Prada reference ;))

For curvy girls, as we all know, skater/flare dresses are such a flattering staple. Last year, all I ever wore was day dresses but over the past months, my confidence has been all over the place and all my day dresses were thrown to the back of my wardrobe. More recently, eating healthier and the sun has lifted my mood and so the dresses have returned; hurrah!



This pretty little dress was found in my local charity shop last year- originally from New Look but I got it for £3!!
Shoes, bag- Primark
Blazer- Forever 21
Bowler hat- Topshop
(According to my friends, in this photo, I am doing my 'worried smile' sorry)

Tourist in London

A few of my friends were going to a gig in the night (a gig which I couldn't get tickets for) but we decided to make a day of it. London is one of my all time favourite cities and living only 30 mins away from the centre is a complete bonus! A lot of us have exams approaching and we needed a break-spending time with our friends is the perfect way. The sun came out to play and we had such a brilliant day - ha that rhymed.
