Let's talk hair..

Hello lovely people so as you may have realised I have short hair and I really really love it however naturally my hair grows ridiculously fast and with short hair once it grows it gets to a point were its a really awkward length and guess what I'm am at that stage in fact I think I'm wayy beyond that stage..

You see I wouldn't complain if it wasn't for the fact that I cannot judge how my hair is gonna stand today.. 

Now seeing as I'm going to Germany in about 3 weeks I was thinking to cut it before I go, you know be a little fancy and all.

So I've been looking around the internet and found some inspiration and cut it down to two options, which I would like your opinion in;

1. 

Option 1 is a bob with fringe. My hair is shorter than that but I would definitely get the fringe which I had before and it looked like this: 

(Picture of me with fringe)

Orrrrr option 2 which I'm more tending towards is this;

I loove loove loove this! And I've had something similar to this too which looked like this;

(Excuse the face) 

now if I was gonna get this I would just get the same but do the sides shorter 

Phew, that's me done explaining now I would love for you guys to let me know what you think I should get,

Let's talk trends

I'm really digging this whole black and white trend at the moment!

I find it very attractive and clean. It just speaks a lot of class cause you can't go wrong with both, black and white!

On its own or together I just can't get enough of it.

For me personally, I like to keep a balance of both in my outfits.

Also I love the white suits that are everywhere at the moment! SO MUCH CLASS!

As for the picture of the skirt I posted, I love love love it! I might just have to make myself one because I don't know where it's from!

Do let me know how you like to wear your blacks and whites!

Anyways tomorrow I'm going to a photography exhibition and I'm hopefully going to take some outfit pictures then if all goes well.

Ohh and I'm planning to get a hot pink lipstick soon cause I would really like to have one.

Any suggestions?

Hello lovelies,

taster day vol.1

 

 

 

 

 

Hello lovelies,

 

so here is a tiny little look into what I got to see in the uni taster day on Friday!

Some of the work of the students was really good!

 

I really enjoyed the little look into the textiles work and it kinda gave me an idea of how it all work, which is obviously a sick thing!

 

I did take loads more pictures, but I just thought i'll give you a little teaser and the other pictures will come up bit by bit this week.. hahaa

 

This post is timed soo me and my mum should have left for a little adventure in a slightly strange city, I don't know what it is about this place that makes me feel weird, but it's probably the huge difference you can tell straight away to massive, loud London.. hahaa on top of that the prices are pretty sick too we paid £3,70 for a cap, that's pretty much nothing compare to how much we would have paid in London hahaa

 

Anyways, I did actually manage to sort out my wifi in the hotel, which was quite nice.. it's crazy how much we need internet in our lives..

 

As always there is more to come,

how to wear: headwraps

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hello lovelies,

 

so this post is about headwraps - obviously.

Personally, I'm a huge fan of headwraps I think they are an amazing accessory and they just look stunning!

I have worn a headwrap once to a gig and I felt soo good about it, it took me a lot of confidence though and I was soo scared until I realised that people were appreciating it.

 

Now I just really want to wear headwraps every once in a while cause its just soo nice so this post is kinda my inspiration for it and my reminder.

 

I'm planning to wear a headwrap in one of my outfits next week..

What do you think of that idea? and what do you think about headwraps? let me know!

I'll be my own boyfriend

 

 

 

 

Hello lovelies,

 

so you may have realised that some of my outfits are quite 'boyish'

that's because personally I'm a massive fan of the whole boyfriend look!

I just think there is something soo attractive and cool about it and I was actually going to upload loads of pictures from the typical fashion week outfits that consisted of boyfriend jeans and tee's and soo on, but then I found the first picture here (the one from the model on the catwalk) and thought why not write about the whole suit idea.

 

So from the moment the whole suit trend came in I fell in love with it because it's soo effortlessly chic and the first picture I have up on here is probably one of my the best examples of it - ever, I just think the grey and the white look beautiful together and the whole suit is just absolutely stunning! The boyfriend look in general just has really comfortable cuts, which still drop very nicely on your body.

 

I have actually been trying to find something similar - unfortunately I haven't found anything satisfying enough.. hahaa

 

What do you guys think of the boyfriend look? and about the suits? I would love to know!

ways to wear: navy pants/trousers

 

 

 

 

Hello lovelies,

 

so this post is about navy pants and some inspiration on how to wear them.. just because I absolutely love navy and I LOVE my navy pants!

 

I find that navy goes with almost everything and it is a colour that can easily be dressed up or down same thing with pants you can easily dress them up or down so imagine getting navy pants, that's like a 2 for 1 deal!

 

I brought my navy pants in H&M for £12.99 if I remember right, which I think is a ridiculous price because these are worth way more considering the quality and the amount of times I wear them.. hahaa

 

I think the pictures above show a few really nice examples on how to wear navy pants,

but a few others ways I would wear them (apart from the outfits you've seen of me wearing them hahaa) are for example:

 

- navy pants + white blouse + red bra + green clutch + green belt + red shoes (heels) + a red lip and you're ready to go

 

- navy pants + green jumper + red bag + red lips + green shoes

 

- navy pants + white jumper + plum belt + plum lips + white shoes + white oversized clutch/bag

 

obviously jewellery is considered separately hahaa

 

yeah that's it.

The main reason why I have done this post - it's timed btw - is because I planned to wear my navy pants today (and hopefully I haven't changed my mind) and so therefore I thought why not let you compare hahaa

 

anyways I'm gonna have a very long day because I'm doing this art project so I'm not quite sure when I can post todays outfits, but it will be up sometime tonight, promise!

 

until then,

POLYVORE invasion

Hello lovelies,

 

here are a few more polyvore sets I have done!

I love trousers/pants sooo soo much, I just think there is soo much class to them.

Majority of the things in these sets are going on my shopping list, which is a bit worrying because I have been turning into a real shopaholic recently.. I mean I always have shopped a lot, but I'm going a bit crazy at the moment.. hahaa

 

I hope you guys like these sets.

Hello lovelies,

 

first day back to school after a nice and laid back halfterm..

It was a pain to get up this morning, but I managed.

 

Now to the outfit, I went all casual, oversized and laid back on this morning and was missing a wow factor so I decided to wear my snake skin boots. Aren't they just so stunning? I told you I was obsessed with snake skin.. hahaa

 

Let me know what you think,
