Photography

So I've been pretty busy with uni work at the moment but I thought I would share some of the photographs I have styled and taken for my media project.

Both of the blue dresses and the shoes are from Primark, the dress with the black sleeves is actually in the sale at the moment for £2!!

Christmas Wish-list


It's getting to that time of year again where we start having a bit of a panic about what to get people for Christmas, I know when people ask me the response is normally 'errrrrrr'! This year I thought I would do a christmas wish-list post as for one I have an idea of what i would like. 
The earmuffs look amazing, you can also connect them to your phone/ iPod/ mp3 player so you can listen to music while keeping your ears warm. The picture frame looks so cute, I really don't have enough pictures in my room at the moment and this would fit in with the style of my room perfectly! As for the charm I've been collecting them for ages and this would be a perfect edition to it. I've wanted a pair of boots like these ones from River Island for ages, I really like the style of them and they do look rather comfy. The boohoo dress was one of the first things that caught my attention on their site, I really like the cut out shoulders and the sequins, it would be the perfect christmas/ new year party dress.

Liebster Awards

I've been a really bad blogger lately as my posts seam to be getting further apart, however I am now making it my mission to post at least once a week!
A few weeks ago (almost a month ago!) i was nominated for the Liebster Awarded by the lovely Kenzie over at kenziebenalibeauty. For anyone unfamiliar with this it is an award given by bloggers to other bloggers who they feel deserve some recognition. This helps new and upcoming bloggers to establish themselves within the blogging community.




1. What inspired you to start out on the blogging scene?
There are a few blogs that i had been following for a few years and I always thought it would be pretty cool to have my own, then once I started at university that gave me the confidence to finally start one.

2. Who is your style icon and why?
Alexa Chung... her style is so effortless and she always gets it right.

3. Would you rather have a fashion line or a beauty range?
Fashion Line

4. Who is your favourite designer?
There are so many! If i had to pick one it would probably be Galliano, I love the theatrical aspect of his shows!

5. If you could only take 3 beauty products to a desert island, what would they be?
Moisturiser, mascara, sun cream (not much of a beauty product but I wouldn't want to come off it looking like a tomato!)

6. What is your top beauty tip?
Use a primer before putting on your foundation.

7. High fashion or editorial?
Editorial

8. What is your favourite highstreet shop and why?
Topshop, their jeans are amazing and they always have what i'm looking for.

9. Who inspires you most in the world?
Im not really sure that there is one person who inspires me the most, I think that looking to what I could achieve and do in the future is enough to inspire me to do well and work hard to get there.

10. Where do you see yourself in 10 years time? 
I would love to be working for Company Magazine... if not then i would hope to be in a career that I love.
