OOTD | Fur Collar





Fur collar - Topshop
Coat - Zara
Jumper - Topshop
Dress - Topshop
Necklace - Miss Selfridge
Tights - Primark
Shoes - Converse

Its no secret that i am obsessed with furry things,always have been, always will! After i purchased my oversized Zara coat i knew that something was missing, i have been on the look out for a faux fur collar for a while but i think a lot of them look a bit tacky?! I also had a look at the vintage fair i recently went to but they were real fur ones and on the ends were their heads and feet,so freaky! Safe to say i didn't purchase any of them! I picked this one up from Topshop for £25, luckily i had a £10 voucher to use because i'm not sure i would have paid this much for what is essentially a very furry scarf! Its sooo warm though and i love the different shades to the fur. Black ones are much easier to find though and there is so many in the shops at the moment. River Island also have some lovely ones for around about the same price!

What do you think of this outfit? Are you loving fur items of clothing this winter?

Garnier Simply Essentials soothing 2 in 1 Makeup-remover


Lately my normal cheap cleanser just hadn't been cutting it in removing my eye makeup, i asked for some recommendations on twitter for a good but cheap eye makeup remover and had lots of lovely followers tweet back to me with their suggestions. Laura Loves told me about this one which sounded great as she likened it to a Clarins dupe and it was only £1.99! I have never used products from Clarins before so unfortunately i wont be able to relate to that but i can tell you that this is the best thing i have discovered to remove my eye makeup and actually does a great job at doing so!

This product states that it contains No perfume,alcohol nor is there any need to rub vigorously to remove it,and that it is suitable for sensitive kin. Well i have really sensitive skin and only ever use basic products on my face so i was worried it wouldn't live up to its claims. Well, there is completely no scent to this which is what normally puts me off from using other products,i only needed a few drops on a piece of cotton wool and within a few motions over my eye area it removed every trace of the mascara. I've just started using Maybelline falsies as well and found it really hard to remove with my old cleanser so i was pleasantly surprised when this actually worked and so quickly as well.

There were no after effects to it either ,no stinging or soreness on the skin area around the eye. This product is great you cant go wrong at only £1.99, it removes your eye makeup however much you wear in a few seconds,it doesn't irritate your skin with any nasty chemicals and it should last you for a long time as you really don't need to use much of it at all.


What do you think of this product,have you tried it before? What products do you use to remove eye makeup?

OOTD | Plaid blouse






Blouse - Hollister
Skirt - Primark
Cardigan - Abercrombie (old)
Shoes - Primark
Bag - Ted Baker

Hello everyone i hope you're all having a lovely weekend and the sun is shining for once! I have been praying for some decent weather this week and with the rain i have been unable to get as many outfit pictures as i would have liked and today the light was so bright i struggled to get the pictures that weren't too bright haha silly British weather!

I also wore a coat with this as its got soo cold this last week! I've also just realised in a  lot of my recent outfit posts i look like i'm going to school or something haha that's not intentional! Anyway, When there was a sale in Hollister a few weeks ago i picked this blouse up,its quite thin but i like the plaid/tartan pattern and the peplum to it although its not exactly fitted. I featured this skirt in an outfit post a while back but i'm obsessed with the fit of it and love the quilted texture and from primark i really am impressed by it and its actually in the sale now for only £5! 

I hope you enjoyed reading, i have lots more outfit posts to come this week featuring some of my new fur purchases so keep an eye out!

What do you think of this outfit? What are you loving from primark at the moment?

OOTD | Geek Chic






Jumper - Topshop (old)
Blouse - Hollister
Jeans - Abercrombie
Necklace - BikBok
Shoes - Ugg
Rucksack - Topshop
Glasses - Karen Millen

I hope you are all having a good week,its nearly the weekend yey!! As always i have been busy with uni work but had some time to get some outfit pictures,i think this outfit is really preppy and college like! Just to point out i do actually need glasses and these aren't just a fashion accessory haha!

I love this jumper and also lived in it last winter, baggy jumpers are so cosy and go with all skinny jeans,leggings, bodycon skirts etc,they're so versatile! I layered this with an embellished blouse and my favourite necklace which is from BikBok,it is definitely my favourite shop in scandinavian countries! If you look closely you can see one of the gems has fallen out though,it makes me so sad when that happens to your favourite jewellery,but its not going to stop me from wearing it!

These are my favourite jeans of all time!! I barely wear jeans these days but i love the colour wash of the denim and the rips in the fabric. 

Thanks for reading! What do you think of this outfit? Do you love baggy jumpers too?
