Dungaree Dress #2

So this is the second instalment of what I style with my very versatile dungaree dress!

This week (note that I am doing this on a saturday and not a sunday like last week haha) I have styled it with a lace collared top from Primark for £6. I don't have many collared items in my wardrobe, but this I absolutely adore! It goes with skinny jeans, under dresses, with skirts, the lot!



TOTAL OUTFIT COST: £17!


This would look lovely with a long cameo necklace and some ballet sandals!

eBay Wishlist


So these are the items I am currently lusting after from ebay! I think most people love ebay, for the amazing deals that you can get!

I'm really loving the 'nautical' theme at the moment, so that's why I have all the beachy items! Also, I really need some sort of storage for my makeup, and these are perfect - and such a good price! Lastly, the shoes. I just love them. And, I could probably walk in them as they are a wedge.

Elf Blush in Mellow Mauve

While I was a'searching the interweb for makeup goodies the other day looking for new (cheap) products to buy, I came across the e.l.f website. Now at first I thought it was a website for elfs, but as I took a closer look I saw it stood for eyes, lips, face. It's quite clever really!

I'm absolutely smitten with elf's eyelash brush as it really separates the lashes well, but while I was looking at their other products, I just had to look at their blushers. I am really loving blushers and bronzers at the moment, it has turned into a bit of an obsession, much more than eye products like a couple of months ago. I really want the NYC Bronzer and Bourjois Bronzer (you know the one which is supposed to smell like chocolate), but my local superdrug doesn't stock NYC and for some reason I just can't bring myself to buy the bourjois Bronzer- strange. However if I do purchase these, I will make sure I do a post about them!








Anyway, I chose 'Mellow Mauve' after much research of the different shade's swatches. I felt that mellow mauve is a lot more of a natural colour and I did not own a purple toned blush so this was the perfect opportunity. The packaging is extremely similar to Nars' blushes which is a massive thumbs up from me. It also has a very satisfying 'click' when you shut the lid! I think you can tell that the little things please me! The blush gives the apples of my cheeks a gorgeous tint and this has definitely become my staple blusher so far. Not only that, but a healthy sheen which is necessary if you have pale cheeks like me. It is a very subtle yet noticeable colour so it is perfect for school/every day use. Unfortunately the pictures do not do it enough justice! I really want it in 'Coral Candid', and 'Pink Passion' looks like quite an interesting colour, but there are many other shades I wish I good possess. It is just such good quality for the price! 

I don't want to end this on a downer, but I thought I would make you aware that elfs makeup brushes (£1.50 ones) are not made of very good brush hair. It falls out constantly. Please don't waste your money on these. BUT I do recommend the eyelash brush as I said before- invest invest invest!

Lastly, excuse the extravagant yet weird language I am using today, I'm in one of 'those' moods. :)

Denim Dungaree Dress #1

As I said in my previous post, from today I am starting a weekly post string, where every Saturday (yeah I know it's sunday, but yesterday was very busy for me!) I will try and style/accessorise the denim Dungaree dress. This is such a versatile item which can be worn differently every time! I know when I buy new clothes, I always stress out what to style with it, so if your interested in knowing what to wear with it or your just being nosey (don't worry because I am!) then I'm sure this will interest you!

This is the first post, so if your wondering where I got the Dungaree dress from, then I got it in the sale from New Look. I talk about it a lot more here. I got it for £11 (this is the exact price, whereas in my last post I wasn't too sure!) and it was originally £22.99. However they can be purchased from a lot of different high street stores; topshop, primark, river island etc. Its just really looking around for the design you want, and I was incredibly happy with mine. I don't tend to wear dresses a lot in the day, but since the beautiful weather and the loveliness of the dress, I have worn it at least 5 or 6 times!



I styled it with a simple white rolled sleeved tee and that was it! How simple and easy was that!? I'm sure everyone possesses a white tee somewhere in their house and if not they are reasonably cheap to buy! Mine was from Asos for £6 or in Primark they are £4! 

I would accessorise it with this necklace which is from Topshop for £8.50


TOTAL OUTFIT COST: £25.50
without necklace: £17

Outfit Ideas

Hey guys,

When I'm scrolling through Bloglovin, the one thing I love to read about are OOTD's and outfit ideas, for those who don't know what I mean by that, when people style different outfits for different occasions. So I though to myself, why don't I do one myself? And alarm bells went off in my tiny brain.



So here it is for you! Be sure to let me know if you like these kind of posts, and if you would wear any of these!?

Mwah!
