Jewellrey of the Day; 1#


Ring is from  Dolly Up Ginger , it was £5.50 and  is an adjustable ring. You can get it here. I adore anything with Cameo, well not when it's made to look tacky with rhinestones and on a gold chain but the majority of it I love. Necklace is from Topshop,  it is £8.50 but was recently in the sale so you may still be able to get it. It is a real daisy inside.

Hope you like these posts as I hope to share with you many more.


Monday

Getting to know you, getting to know all about you.

First of all I thought I would share a discount code with you all, 20% off newlook.com with the code 'NLAWMAG2UK' t'was in their magazine.

(WARNING- Heavy word post- but just on this one occasion I hope you don't mind)

So I have recently noticed that alot of people are personal when it comes to their blog, be it 'about me' pages or whatever, and I am not. I just never think people are really interested about me but I keep thinking it's a little wierd I know so much about people's blog I read so decided I would let you guys into my world a little more, so I hope you enjoy.

So my name is Lauren, as some of you may know. I am 17 years old and my birthday is July 20th 1994, so one of the baby's of the year but at least my birthday isn't 31st August, I don't think I would like being 17 when my friends are out being 18. I live in the South West of England but I have a northern accent(not that strongly though) as I have only lived down south since the end of February this year. I moved during my first year of college, it was hard - and it still is, but you just have to get on with it. I used to live 3 hours away in the North West. So I am in my second year of college now, I do Performing Arts Musical Theatre. Performing used to be something I was really passionate about but that has diluted and now I want to follow the job I am involved in now, which is retail, although I still love performing and doing the course, I just lost that spark I had for it. Retail may not seem like a big goal to some people, but I love the little things in life and the comapny I am with is great for working your way up. You never know what oppourtunities are going to come your way, but I hope I get lucky.

I discovered all this youtube and blogger business just over a year ago now by thinking that before I started college I wanted my make-up to look nice so typed in 'make-up tutorial' on youtube and discovered Juicystar07. I then got to know about the community and began learning so much about make-up and then moved on to loving the fashion video's also. I can honestly say that in the last year I have grown so much as a person and learnt so much about all things fashion and beauty and most importantly myself, which I hope to continue learning about.

I hope I didn't bore you, it's just I don't want my blog to be post after post about my outfit or a product, my favourite blogs are ones with a personal touch.

Have a great week everybody!

Friday

September; My First Glossybox!

So finally I jumped on the 'Glossybox' bandwagon and recieved my very first one this afternoon. Now I know you will have seen this post many times already but seen as it was a first for me I thought I may aswell share my views. 




This Month's box included; HDBrows Eye+Brow Palette, Plum Perfume by Mary Greenwell, Dead Sea Spa MAGIK Salt Brushing Sachets x 2, KIMIA Hyrda Activator and Exquisite All Natual Face Oil Samples and Neal Wolf Intensive Care Treatment.

A few first impressions; 

I've heard alot of people say that the perfume is something they would give to their mum, and I have to say I agree. It's a real perfume scent and just not to my personal liking. I've used Neal Wolf Haircare before, they were my Grandma's cast-off's, but I'm not the greatest at noticing difference's in my hair but it has a lovely rich smell. The KIMIA skin products and the Salt Brushing Sachets I can't say much about becasue I haven't used them yet, but you get a genorous amount of the salts. And finally the HDBrows Palette, I was most excited about this as I am more of a Make-Up person that a Beauty Products person. I had never heard of this brand before but some Blogger already were saying they really like it but when I was seeing how soft the little brush that came with it was loads of the brisles came out so easily. I wouldn't have used it anyway but it was a little annoying. I hope to do a full review on the palette.

I would also like to apologise for the lack of posts, just feel very un-inspired as what to post because I am the sort of person who likes to be 100% with the state of a post, and I fell that if I don't like it you won't, but I have a few idea's I am going to explore so we will see what happens.

Have a great day!

Caroline Flack Inspired Outifit

After watching the Xtra Factor I realised that I love Caroline Flack's style, it's so simple but she looks so styleish every time. This outifit's inspired by her Xtra Factor style, which I can't wait to watch each week. Plus gorge on her co-star Olly Murs, he's a beautiful man.

Collared Top - New Look - £23

Skirt - Topshop - £26


I hope you enjoyed,
Have a great day!

RI for Maxi Skirts


I popped into River Island today hand in hand with a £25 gift voucher I recieved for my birthday a while ago. Lately I have been in a 'I need clothes but don't want to spend my money' mood, but if there free(technically) I was happy to buy. I tried a few things on but settled for this Dusty rose coloured Maxi Skirt that I now have to return :( , I wasn't 100% sure but didn't want to come back and find it gone, but unfortunatly the security tag has left a bit of a hole on the back and with my Mum claiming it will only get bigger and bigger on this jersey material I have decided to return it. I'm also a little worried about the fact that it is the beginning of September and will I really be trotting along in a Maxi skirt in a months time when it's chillier, no!

I also thought I would inspire you a little by pointing out Helen Flanagan on this week's front cover of Fabulous magazine.


I think she looks stunning. Her lipstick reminds me of  'MAC Saint Germain' which I do have- YAY! I love her blue eyes and the bold black eye Make-Up. Lovely. 

That's all. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
