OOTD #27


I recently jumped on the sleeveless blazer bandwagon after initially being really against them. I picked up this little white one from Cameo Rose - a label stocked in New Look. Most of the white sleeveless jackets I've seen retail for about £30 - £40. This however, only cost £19.99, plus I was able to get student discount on it too so I ended up getting a really good deal on it! I wasn't 100% sure how I'd find styling the blazer as I have nothing in my wardrobe remotely like this, however I've been wearing it a lot recently and find styling it very easy. It smartens up the simplest of outfits, just like this one which consists of a really basic black dress and some sandals!

OOTD #8


Hello Everyone!

I've been a bad blogger and took a 3 day break from posting anything. I'm sorry for my absence, I hope you don't mind too much. I had a bit of bad news on Friday, and it was just one of those days where everything bad seemed to be happening all at once so I've avoided the internet as I've not been in such a great mood. However I'm back, things are looking up and I've got nothing to complain about so on with the OOTD post! The weather the past few days has been wonderful and it still is so it's been nice digging out my summery clothes and using the hot weather as excuse to be lazy with my hair and makeup.

I'm not really doing too much today as per usual. So far today, me and my boyfriend have signed up for the Alpha stage of a new game, we've walked my dog, I've done some hoovering around the house and now we're just about to make a fruit salad. How exciting!

It's really hot today so my outfit is rather simplistic and temperature appropriate. Probably not the most interesting to look at but oh well, we can't all look amazing all the time, right?!


Outfit:
Cropped Striped Boxy Shirt - Topshop
Denim Shorts - Topshop
Brown Strappy Sandals - George at Asda
Black Sunglasses - Cosmopolitan Magazine


Jewellery:
2 Gold Rings - Hand Me Downs
Gold Bracelet - Hand Me Down

That's it for today's post! I hope you enjoyed, and once again sorry for my absence.

Also, could anyone recommend me some blogs to check out? Fashion, Beauty, Photography etc! I'd really love to add some new ones to my reading list.


Take care!

Paige.

FOTD #1



Hello Readers!

I've decided to start a new series of posts, entitled FOTD. I really want to do an everyday makeup routine but I keep switching things up so regularly all of a sudden that I don't even have a set everyday look anymore! So my FOTD posts will allow me to show you what makeup look I'm currently wearing on that day! I was toying around with this blog post idea for a while as I wasn't really too keen on posting images of just my face, it makes me slightly uncomfortable and also makes me cringe a little bit. However, I enjoy these types of posts from other people so I might as well give it a go myself!

I'm trying to sort out an everyday makeup routine so once I have one I'll do a post on that. As I mentioned in my previous posts I've been enjoying creating a nice bronzed, glowy summer look so that's what I'm wearing in this post. It's quite simple, and not as bronzed as what some other people's summer makeup looks are as I don't tan and I'm very pale. All products used will be listed below.

Please ignore my frizzy crazy hair, I was too lazy to do anything with it today. Such a great beauty blogger..

Let me know what you think!
