21st Birthday Wishlist


Eeek it's my 21st is at the end of this month,i'm sooo excited but i literally had no idea what i wanted. So compiling a wishlist helped and i have picked out a few things that have really caught my eye so if my family or boyfriend are reading this... take note! 

I got my first tangle teezer on my last birthday and its been my best mate ever since,i wonder how i ever tamed my hair before this. They have now released the aqua splash TT which is a lot bigger and is a lot more appropriate for my long hair than the travel size one i have,it is also specifically made for use on wet hair, i do a lot of swim training so this is perfect for me and naturally i want the pink one.

I have never used a brush for my foundation before. From hearing lots of talk about this face brush in the beauty community i think its time to be converted from using my fingers. Along the beauty side of things I've also ran out of my favourite mac nude lipstick - shy girl ,so i quite fancy trying a new one out and Hue looks gorgeous on the swatches i have seen.

Cut out boots are definitely on my list for the upcoming A/W trends. Black ones seem to be everywhere so i fancy being a bit different and i found these white/black ones from Bank they are only £32,so cheaper than the Topshop ones and they look like a dream! The hologram bag i have just fallen in love with,its from New look and its not overly priced,i need this clutch desperately!

Lastly i need a new camera for blogging! I have been using the exact same one this summer as the one above but its my Mums, and the pictures come out so well considering its not a DSLR. I love the quality of pictures on those type of cameras but its too big for me and i would never take it on holiday as they are such a nuisance to carry. This digital camera is the next best thing,its small and at 16.1 mp its pretty good!

I hope you liked my wishlist what do you think of my picks? Do you have any of these?

Too Faced La Creme Colour Drenched Lip Cream


After using the Too Faced bronzer set which i reviewed in full here, i have wanted to try more of their products,its a brand that isn't too well known and isn't sold in any of my local beauty stores,Too Faced can be purchased online from Beauty Bay though. Next on my list to try was one of their lipsticks. I purchased the La Creme Drenched lip cream in the colour Juicy Melons(love the name!) from Sephora in New York,but you can buy it from Beauty Bay for £18.00. As i have said before i love their packaging!The casing of the lipstick is gold with the Too Faced name embossed into the side of it.Juicy Melons is a gorgeous pink colour,its neither nude nor bright pink and i would liken it to a pink coral colour. 






The application of it is heavenly,it applies so easily and it is really hydrating so it doesn't leave your lips looking or feeling dry,as it states it is a creme colour and it really is creamy when you apply it to the lips,it has a distinctive gorgeous scent to it,unlike some cheaper makes which have that similar scent. I need to apply this a few times to get a full coverage,the colour does fade after a while when you eat/drink etc but apart from that the staying power is brilliant. I also love how it has a gloss finish which you can see from the above pictures. This lipstick stands out from the crowd for me because of the hydrating benefits,the creamy application and the colour/gloss look win me over. For me personally it is expensive at £18 which is more than you would pay for a Mac lipstick, but you really do pay for the quality here,i picked it up as a treat but i wouldn't normally pay this amount for a lipstick.


What do you think of this lipstick? What Too Faced products have you tried?

OOTD - Monochrome print




Playsuit - Urban Outfitters(old)// Sandals - Topshop// Necklace - Primark// Bracelet - Accesorize

Sadly i think this warm weather might have come to an end now,i wrote this post up on Friday and its been raining ever since! I love this playsuit which i purchased last year and luckily the monochrome patterns are still in trend, its such a comfy and thin playsuit that its perfect for hot days (not today then!). Yes, its those Topshop sandals again!!I really should have bought more shoes this summer haha. Of course I had to team it with my neon accessories as i think it really brings out the colour against the black and white.

Thank you for reading, I hope you're all having a lovely weekend,now bring on the autumn outfits!What do you think of this outfit?Do you like the monochrome trend?

OOTD & Day out



Hello everyone i hope you have all been enjoying this unusually glorious weather for September! Making the most of it yesterday i took a a ferry ride over from Plymouth to a place called Mount Edgecumbe which is home to a stately house and such beautiful grounds,i then went on a 7 mile walk(so tiring!) to a beach in Cornwall called Cawsands,it was such nice weather that it was worth the trek and i even topped my tan up,result! Here are a few pictures of my day and what i wore.








Blouse - Vero Moda// Shorts - Levis (customised by me)// Belt - Primark//Necklace - Miss Se;fridge// Sunglasses - Urban Outfitters

This was quite a casual outfit that i wore yesterday but it was sooo hot and i needed to be comfortable on the long walk so that's why you cant see the old flip flops that i wore haha. I love these levis but they are far too big for me now but they look good hoisted up with a belt, i also customised these a while back with studs which i bought i Ebay! I fell in love with this blouse at the start of the summer because i love the dip dye effect of the white and pink. I'm so surprised at how much wear i have had out of my summer clothes this year but i want to start wearing all my winter clothes again now,and long hair and heat in the weather just don't go!

Thank you for reading What do you think of this outfit?
