It Was There That I Saw You

T-Shirt - H&M
Cardigan - American Apparel
Jeans - Topshop
Necklace - This Charming Girl
I am in love with these jeans! I lost 5lbs the other week and my size 12 New Look Super Skinny (yeah right!) jeans had become ridiculously baggy, making me look about 3 sizes bigger. So I treated myself to not one, but two pairs of size 10 Jamie jeans from Topshop. I got them in a normal denim colour and these burgundy ones. I saw them instore a few weeks ago I fell in love with them. I would never normally buy coloured jeans but I really liked this colour and couldn't stop thinking about them so I just went for it. So glad I did. I was worried that they wouldn't fit over my massive thighs or hips but I managed to wiggle my way into them haha. Totally recommend the Jamie jeans for anyone looking for some good skinnies.

I also decided to follow the crowd and buy Topshop's cream blush in Neon Rose and highlighter in Sunbeam. I'm wearing both of these products in these photos. I really like the highlighter as it gives you a really lovely warm glow. I wish they did it in a slightly pinker colour as I think that would suit me more. I think Neon Rose might look a bit orange on my skintone. I much prefer their cream blush in Flush as again its a lot pinker in colour. The quality of these products is stunning though. I really rate Topshop's makeup range, well the permanent collection anyways.

Anyone else daring to wear colourful jeans this Spring?

New Nails: Utopia

I went to Boots the other day and took advantage of their 3 for 2 offers on most of their stuff. I bought 3 Model's Own nail polishes - Utopia, Pastel Pink & Lemon Meringue. Today I'm wearing Utopia. It is a beautiful ever so slightly pink toned white colour. The formula of this one is really creamy and lovely to apply. I'm wearing two coats with Seche Vite on top. Its such a unique colour, even the girls serving me commented on how nice it looked. This is the perfect alternative to plain white nail polishes as it definitely doesn't look like you've just put Tipp-Ex on your nails!


I also got some stuff from L'Oreal. I bought the Carbon Gloss Super Liner as my Illamasqua one is running out, Volume Million Lashes mascara in Extra Black and their Renewal Lash Serum. I made the mistake of buying the Clinique Bottom Lash mascara last month, don't get me wrong, its a great product but I didn't know it was a tubing mascara. As I tend to pick off my mascara whenever I'm stressed/tired/bored, I picked off the Bottom Lash mascara and loads of my lashes came out with it! I normally use Talika Lipocils to mend my lashes but I thought I'd give this Loreal one a try. I find the spoon applicator a bit weird to use but otherwise it seems ok so far. Still think I prefer the Talika one though.


Along with some boring make up wipes, my last 3 for 2 item was The Fab Pore from Soap & Glory. My skin has been looking a bit crappy lately. We've still not finished unpacking all of our stuff and I can't find my beloved Mario Badescu Special Cucumber Lotion anywhere :( So I'm hoping that this product will be the quick pick me up my skin so badly needs.

Has anyone tried any of these products? What are your thoughts on them? Any other great 3 for 2 items in Boots?

When Forever 21 announced that they were at long last going to open some stores in the UK I was really excited about it. I'd visited one in New York a few years ago and I really liked what I saw. The stores they opened over here were a bit too far away for me to visit so I eagerly logged onto their website and was sorely disappointed with what was on offer. I don't think I liked even one thing. But thats all changed. I'm really bored with the typical UK high street shops right now, I can never find anything I actually want. On a whim, I logged onto the Forever 21 website and I was surprised to find that their Spring/Summer stuff is really gorgeous. Theres so much I want! Heres some of my fave stuff they have available. I'm really tempted to buy that tribal jacket but can't quite decide whether it will look totally ridiculous or not. Opinions please! Also does anyone know what their sizing is like?
