I've been sleeping with the lights on

OOTN





             

Dress: Topshop
Necklace and Earrings (in a set): Dorothy Perkins
Tights: Primark
Leather Jacket: Miss Selfridge
Heels: Office
Bracelet: Pandora
Watch: Michael Kors

This is an outfit which I have worn to a few parties and I absolutely love it. The dress itself is really figure flattering as it isn't that kind of dress which clings to any of the wrong places. I also love how it shapes outwards at the end of the skirt. The dress is styled like a two piece almost, which I love. The shoes are unbelievably comfortable as the platforms are high, and so it nearly levels out with the heel. It feels like you nearly are on your flat feet! I love the style of these too. I paired with silver jewellery as I thought it would match with the greys a lot more than gold or rose gold would, and by choosing the matching earrings and necklace, it meant that I could easily match with silver and purple eyeshadow. This is very complementing for green eyes which is good for me! Another way I would style this for a more comfortable wear is with chelsea boots.

What do you think of this outfit?

What I got for Christmas 2014



Hey! So I am back on the blogging scene. I thought I would do a what I got for christmas post, as I love reminiscing on the things I got, and reading lots of these types of posts myself. I am so happy with everything i got, and i had an amazing christmas celebrating with friends and family. Enjoy. 

My boyfriend got me the most amazing soap and glory set. It includes: a soap and glory branded drawstring bag, orangegasm body wash, butter yourself body lotion, sugar crush body scrub, riotous body butter, heels genius foot cream, hand dream super cream hand cream, whipped clean shower butter, off your face facial wipes, sexy mother pucker lip gloss and thick and fast mascara. And I get to keep the beautiful box too! 
I got some really cute Lipsy socks from my grandparents, and some pretty next cashmere lip glosses from my cousins grandparents. I also got the benefit bright eyes palette from my aunties brother which I was so excited about, and the snow fairy bar and shower gel from my parents which smell amazing. It is one of my favourite sents from lush.

My parents also got me this Victoria secret sensual blush shower gel and some really pretty flannel pyjamas. 
My grandparents bought me the Gucci by Gucci perfume, which is my favourite fragrance of all time as I have already used up the previous one they bought me. I also got the viva la juicy perfume and hand cream from my best friend Georgia which smells so nice!
I got the Best of British mini board game from my grandparents, which is great for me because I love playing board games with my family. I also got some BHS cosy socks from my next door neighbors, tutti frutti candle from my sister the brand is by a local store owned by a French man, and he makes the most amazing soaps and candles!   
My boyfriend bought me a Selfie stick because he knows how vain I am! I also got a beautiful statement necklace and some gold and silver bath bombs from my grandparents. My godmother bought me the seventeen grafitti effect nail polishes. I have tried them out and they look really nice and give an amazing glitter effect which is great for a topcoat! 
                                     
I was also spoilt rotten with beautiful pandora charms to go on my bracelet! I love them all! 
L-R: safety chain from my grandparents, present charm from my boyfriend, and flower charm from my boyfriend's parents.

                                     
I got a beautiful Mac dazzle glass limited edition lipgloss from my parents. I was so excited about this as I don't own many high end makeup products so it's always such a treat to get one as a gift!

I got these really cute Penguin Haribos from my boyfriend's nan, and some films that I asked for from my parents.
I got a really cute snapfish Prom album my dad made for me, a mcbusted calendar, and Ed Sheeran book from my parents. I also got some m&m chocolates from my parents friends.

Wow! My family know me and my fashion a bit too well I think! Topshop vouchers from my godmum, aunt and uncle, and my boyfriend.

I got a Topshop pink purse from my sister I love this so much and it's my favourite colour to wear. 

I was given these Mirrored 'stackers' jewellery box by John Lewis from my grandparents. They are so pretty and if you need more of them (which I probably do) you can build on them as they 'stack'. 

Lots and lots of chocolate! 

I got this beautiful Necklace from my great aunt and uncle. 

And my biggest present, which I really wasn't expecting was an iPad mini 32 gig with retina display. It is the white and silver one so it matches with all my other Apple products which are also white and silver. I love it so much and it will definitely come in handy this year as I am travelling to 2 different countries this year p. It will also come in handy for revision during my a levels! 



What did you get for christmas?

Thank you for reading!
