Monday 11th August. Bonjour! We all woke up, got ready and by the way how good is my eyeliner game- I did that with my NAKED Palette Mirror so it was hard! We went to breakfast at an amazing Café where I had Nutella on French Toast, YUM! Again we went to many places as we did the hop on hop off tour bus - even though we didn't get off the entire time! We caught the Metro to the Champs Elysees and had a coffee. Im sitting with my dad in case you didn't know! Im absolutely in love with anything remotely like overalls/dungarees hence my outfit! They're so comfy! I actually bought some Chocolate from Laduree which was delicious. Notre Dame was one of my favourite places to be, it was so big and amazing I had to take a few moments to take it in. I bought many things but I stuffed it all in that black Backpack. Some things I got were a White Tennis Skirt from a vintage store- similar to the American Apparel Tennis Skirt. Also a T-Shirt that has some Paris Landmarks - how cool. Also I got a jumper and other little bits for friends!

Paris isn't just the City of Love but the City you fall in love with.

ALL AROUND PARIS.

Sunday 10th August. Day 2. We literally went everywhere! From the Eiffel Tower, to the Louvre, The Champs Elysees and The Arc De Triumph! I loved exploring Paris and going to different places! We visited one of many 'Love Lock Bridges' where me and the rest of my family bought a lock and threw away the key. I put me and my best friend Lish on there which was pretty cool! Its very picture heavy but there's just to much to show! You can see me looking at makeup and that was in Sephora which I have already wrote about! We took the Metro to The Moulin Rouge and that was a sight in itself. It looked amazing at night and we had a lovely Starbucks outside it!

I actually sat on a lamp post outside the Arc De Triumph and also gained many bruises from stupidly jumping on it. I thought it was cool though (the picture not the bruises).

We did all sorts, so if you want to know about anything in particular please comment and ill tell you!

Paris is my Heaven.

COW VINTAGE

 

         Skirt: COW Vintage, £10

           Dungarees: COW Vintage, £20   

          

Hello Lovelies! That's right you guessed it I went shopping and bought more clothes! For a while I have wanted a pleated skirt and I'm not normally a big fan of leopard print, but this skirt just looked really good on the hanger and being slightly big headed it looked good on me! I thought for £10 it's such a good price and for Vintage, which is my favourite, I couldn't resist! Dungarees are my thing right now! I tried some on in Urban Outfitters and just fell in love but they were out of my price range! I knew that COW sold them so when I came I saw them in my size for £20 and immediately bought them! They are quite over sized which I love as it gives a 90's feel to the outfit!

 

I'm going to Paris for a few days, so there will be many outfit posts coming including these items of clothing!

REVIEW: ALEXA CHUNG "IT"

 

 

 

 Hello Lovelies. My obsession with Alexa Chung is getting way out of hand. Ever since picking this book up in Urban Outfitters has literally changed my life. I don't think I've ever had so much love for a book. First of, even the front cover makes me smile as its so simple yet really effective. For any Fashion lover, or a fan of Alexa herself, this book draws you in and makes you want to read it over and over again. This wonderful pink book has everything from advice from her sixteen year old self, her role models, thoughts and just genuine writings.

This is quite an easy read but a brilliant one for that matter, I've probably most likely read this at least 10 times because its so good! The images are so cool too which is also very engaging as you like to see the meaning behind why that was put there or what happened at the time! Its quite inspiring to see how far she has come from being a sixteen year old and seeing what she does now. I like to relate myself to Alexa Chung, on a much lower scale of course! I highly recommend for you to read 'IT' whether your a reader or not! You will love it!

 

Love you all

DREAMING OF VINTAGE

 
Hello Lovelies!

You may not have guessed it but this is an OOTD post! "Dreaming of Vintage" - So I went shopping as per usual and I just didn't see anything I liked - at all! It was ridiculous. I have a very particular, peculiar style, one that isn't everybody's cup of tea, its just I cannot afford it!

Im all about that Vintage/Grunge Style and just being different! People don't get it! However Primark today did! Now that is a sentence I never thought would get it BUT I really wanted a vintage style blouse and I found one which im completely in love with!

On Saturday Evening I went for a meal at a place called "The Grill" with some of my best friends for a birthday party/gathering style thing! I decided to wear my new top and this was it!

Shirt/Blouse: Primark

Black Jeans: Topshop

Chunky Boots: River Island

Watch: Urban Outfitters

Satchel: Topshop

 

I really liked my outfit and cannot wait to get some more clothes when I next go shopping!

What's on your shopping list?

Winter Warmth!

Hello everyone!

So it's winter here in England and many other places around the world and that means it's very very cold! At night time I get rather chilly and layer up a lot! I sleep with lots of blankets on just to keep myself warm!

So I thought I'd share with you what I do to keep warm and I'm going to give you my little tips on how to stay cosy in these winter months!

When I get in from school, I like to make a hot drink! I'm the type of person that doesn't like to wear proper clothes when there's no need to, I like to be comfortable, so as soon as I come in and have my hot drink I put my pyjamas on and chill out! When I say 'chill out' that means messing around on my phone, tweeting my socks of! 

Talking about socks, cosy slipper socks are a must have! If your feet are warm, your body is warm! I tuck my bottoms into my socks and put these cute bootie slippers on!

I don't just wear my pyjamas as that doesn't keep me too warm but what I do wear as well is a dressing gown or a fleece poncho! For Christmas I got some cosy keepers! This is a Minnie Mouse style fleece poncho which I just throw on over my pyjamas or even clothes and it keeps me snuggly! I also got this pink and white hooded dressing gown which feels amazing!

Keeping yourself busy also helps you stay warm! If your doing something you won't notice being cold! I don't necessarily mean go running to get warm because I'm very lazy in the winter and going out in the cold to get warm doesn't make sense to me so I potter around in my room, on the computer, or reading! I love reading a lot and lying in bed while having a read is quite relaxing! 

I always try and write when I'm not doing anything and I really enjoy it!

 

Having a cosy room makes you feel cosy too I feel, so I have little fairy lights around my bed and it makes my room look so pretty!

So what do you do in your room, or in the winter when it's too cold to go out?

Love you lovelies!
