Day 1: My Style Icon





(All images above are from google images)


Hi Bloggers,

If you did not know before, now you know it...Vanessa Hudgens is my style icon. I adore her boho chic style. I just love how she wears these cool outfits with confidence. This look suits her very well and she is really pretty.

However, her style is not something that I would copy. I just admire it from a far. So dressing like my style icon was very difficult. It was a challenge to find something in my wardrobe that Vanessa would wear. I looked through millions of her pictures on google to get some inspiration and also to match what I have in my wardrobe.

Once I found my outfit, the dressing up part was fun. It felt like I was doing fancy dress. I should try and re-create celebrity outfits more often. I think I enjoyed this task, mainly because I could not buy anything new, I had to work with what I had in my closet.

The look that I chose to re-create was the black maxi dress paired with a leather jacket. I personally would not put these two items together but it worked. I really liked this look and I felt really pretty in this outfit. So thank you Vanessa for your great style.

The above looks is what I was inspired to re-create. Jackets paired with maxi dresses are such a cute look. View the pictures below to see my version of a Vanessa Hudgens' inspired look.


















I also took some pictures of my make-up. I love dark smokey eyes. I used a tint of purple which I have never done before. You can view a close up of my make-up below.

Style Me October Closet Challenge

(Image source: Pinterest)

Hey bloggers,

Last month, after browsing through pinterest, I decided it was time to do a challenge for October. However, due to being stressed the past few days, I completely forgot about the challenge. As you can see, I am 3 days late but I will start this challenge tomorrow and hopefully I will be able to catch up.

This challenge looks fun and it will certainly help me to experiment with the clothes I have in my closet. I love challenges. Will you be doing this challenge this month?

My Make-up for Fall


Hi bloggers,

Fall is finally here and I am out with brown smokey eyes and burgundy lips. I love fall. It allows me to wear dark lips and get creative with dark smokey eyes. I love smokey eyes and I think that it compliments my dark brown eyes. You can see pictures of the make-up look below:


I created this look with my NYX nude on nude palette. I hardly use this palette but I love the quality of the shadows. I will have to start using this palette more often when I want to use neutral colours on my eyes.

Poundland Foundation Brush Review

Hi Bloggers,

I brought myself a foundation brush at Poundland. This is my first foundation brush as I usually apply foundation with a blusher brush. I am ashamed to admit this but I was under the impression that any brush could do the job.

Once I did my research, I discovered that foundation needs to be applied with a foundation brush. 

As I do not wear foundation often and I do not have a lot of money, I brought my foundation brush for £1.
This brush was very soft and applied the foundation evenly. I would recommend this brush to other foundation lovers who are on a tight budget. 


The pretty pink tip is now covered with foundation. I am happy with this brush.

What foundation brush do you use?

Thank you for reading :)

Review: Sally Hansen Double Duty Strengthening Base & Top coat

£4.95
www.superdrug.com

Hi bloggers,

This is a review on a nail polish I brought 2 years ago. I brought it to strengthen my nails. It did not strengthen my nails. My nails are still weak and they continue to peel. In order for you to protect and strengthen your nails with this polish, you must paint your nails everyday. I do not have time to do this everyday as I feel it should provide protection for at least up to 5 days.

Recently, I found a good use of this polish. I am now using it as a base and top coat for when I am doing my manicures. It adds shine to my nail polishes, however my nails still continue to peel.

I would recommend this nail polish to someone who has strong, healthy nails and are looking for both a base and top coat all in one polish.

Overall, I rate this product 1/5. Purely because I wanted a nail polish that could strengthen my nails and this polish did not live up to my expectations.



Thank you for reading :)

"Don't Be Too Quick To Judge!"

Hey bloggers,

 I am happy to be blogging in my spare time. I enjoy it and I enjoy reading other blogs too. This post will be an update on me and I will be sharing my latest outfit of the day.

As you can see, I have my hair in single plaits. It is so easy to manage now. I do not have to bother with it in the mornings. I can just tie it up, instead of spending half an hour on my hair. However, it took me forever to braid my hair. I hope you like this hairstyle. You can see pictures of it below:




I also have a new pair of glasses. I love them, they are designer. They are a bigger frame to what I usually wear but I think they suit me well.


I like them, they are a nice burgundy colour. I also took some outfit pictures for you all which you can view below. Enjoy!





Thank you for reading :)
