How to style coloured jeans for Autumn/Fall #1...



coloured jeans #1

As summer is beginning to come to an end the weather in England is quickly turning cold again all to soon but it means I have been finding new ways to wear one of my favourite summer trends and styling them right through to winter. This trend of course being coloured jeans. For autumn instead of really trying to brighten the outfit and make it feel light I have gone with a deeper range of colours to pair with my jeans, like deeper neutrals and black in this case just to bring out the autumnal feeling in this outfit. I have also changed from pumps and sandals etc. into ankle boots, which is a style that I think makes the look seem more polished even if it essentially is just a jumper and a pair of jeans. 

I hope this post gave you guys some ideas of how to style your coloured jeans into autumn/fall. What is your style for autumn/fall?

Travel Outfit...

So, these past few weeks I have been travelling around a lot working on a few different projects and have had very little time in between to repack my clothes and plan outfits, (and also blog!) so I have been using a pretty small capsule style wardrobe to get me through. Anyway with all this travelling I have gone through my fair share of travel outfits and have chosen my favourite to show you guys...

Outfit One:
Top: Abercrombie and Fitch
Jeans: Topshop
Bag: GAP


Outfit Two:
Top: H&M
Jeans: New Look
Bag: GAP
Bracelets: Pandora, Links of London
Ring: Bespoke

For both outfits I chose to finish with my beloved loafers, which have become my summer daytime shoe staple, especially as I have been on my feet for the majority of the past few weeks...

Shoes: Dune

What do you guys wear travelling? Have you been anywhere interesting this summer?

Review: Revlon Lip Butter in Berry Smoothie...



When the Revlon Lip Butters were first released onto the market there was a massive buzz in the blogging community with a large portion of beauty bloggers out there falling in love with the product and kick starting a little bit of a blogging trend. However, I decided to wait it out until the hype had gone down a little bit to give my opinion of the Revlon Lip Butters myself. To be honest, I do in fact LOVE them and am kicking myself that I didn't go out and get them earlier but there you go...


The formulation of the lip butters feels very moisturising on the lips and is a dream to apply. The coverage is sheer but can be layered to give a full colour to the lip which makes it a great lip product to have to switch you make up look instantly from daytime to a night time look. My favourite colour from their collection for summer has to be berry smoothie as it gives the lips a lovely raspberry colour and make your make up look polished and put together even if the rest of your face is fairly minimal. 


They are also fairly inexpensive products selling for £7.99 in most drugstores in the UK, although in the US due to the conversion rate they are a bit cheaper which is a little bit annoying. But seeing as the price is the only thing that gets to me I have of course gone back and bought more after trying this colour, with all colours now being part of my summer make up. So much so that they are now staining my mugs...




Have you tried the Revlon Lip Butters? What did you think?

Words to Live by #2...



I decided to continue this mini series of quotes on my blog as my last post seemed to be fairly popular with you all...

'When I was 5 years old my mum told me that the key to life was happiness. When i went to school they asked me to draw what I wanted to be when I grew up, I put down "happy" and they told me I didn't understand the question. I told them they didn't understand life.'

'Wake up everyday with the thought that something wonderful is about to happen' 

'There are far, far better things on the road ahead than the ones we leave behind' 

Do you have any quotes that mean a lot to you?
