STRIPES TWO WAYS..



[Whole Outfit(s) - PRIMARK]
[Culottes - £3]
[Jeans - £10]
[Shoes - £3]
[Top - £10]
[Bag - £1]
[Glasses - £3]







So thought I'd give it ago with these outfits but I couldn't decide what I liked more out of the two outfits because even though they're so similar they're so different! I think I like the jeans more as I just love black skinny jeans, I think they're an every girls must have in their wardrobe. This stripe top I loved but had to return cause it had a hole in and I'm still waiting for more to be delivered! Such an easy wearing top as it goes with a lot of different things! I've been loving primark at the moment, doesn't help that I spend 5 days a week working there but they have some lovely things in at the moment, I do recommend people to take a gander if you haven't in a while, the quality of the clothing is a lot better and also their range of clothes.










Sorry it's such a short post! 


THANKS xx

GOING ALL NUDE


[Dress - Primark (£13)]
[Shoes - Primark SALE (£3)]
[Bag - Primark SALE (£1)]




Perks of working on the returns desk is being able to grab the returns before they go back on the shop floor at the reduced price (if they've gone in the sale) So these gorg mules were a right bargain at £3! Even though they were slightly too big, I had to have them for £3 it just had to be done. Also a perk is seeing what comes into the store every week/ seeing if there is anything new, like this lovely nude/beige dress. Even though I feel like I look like a bag of spuds in it, it would look lovely on a night out! It was also a little big so it had to go back. Also the material was a put off because it's ever so easily stained which are quite hard to get out so it's not my favourite but is a lovely style dress!

I thought I would do some posts with some outfits with toned down colour to show some versatility and that I'm not a one trick pony when it comes to outfits and styling! Having blue/green hair though sometimes makes it a struggle when you're trying to go for the natural/earthy/nude look as my wig is not natural, earthy or nude in the slightest! I would definitely wear this for a cute little meal out one night to somewhere nice if I was to wear it somewhere once or twice but for something to keep, I don't think it's very me!

ULTRABROWS

So finally I've been able to get my hands on ULTRABROWS from makeup revolution. I've been wanting this in medium to dark shade for so long, I was getting a bit desperate when I was going into Superdrug twice a week ATLEAST looking for it! I didn't get it online though because apparently  they were sending out the lighter shades because the darker one had just totally sold out. BUT luckily on a wim I found the last one in my local Superdrug the other day and it was only £6! 


Amazingly simple packaging in my eyes with a cute little diagram of what's in it on the back! All good so far! 


A cute little shiny box all sleek and new looking! (Won't stay like that for long knowing me) but still amazing to look at! And looks more expensive than £6!!!



 

So what do you get for your £6 I hear you ask... 
Well.. 4 mixable eyebrow shades, 2 eyebrow fixing waxes, a highlighter powder, a highlighting fix wax, an eyebrow pencil, 2 brushes and a pair of tweezers..
AMAZING? I KNOW RIGHT! I was just as shocked, especially when you see the standard! cheap makeup can sometimes be diluted and less pigmented than some of the more expensive brands but as this brand does more 'dupe' items the quality in my eyes is just as good as the more expensive brands for just a lower more affordable price.


My eye brows do need shaping and sorting out but I couldn't wait to use it! And I haven't applied any filters to my images so you can see what it's actually like without everyone's friend Valencia! 




Bare in mind also this is the first time I've used this new thing so I'm
Still learning where everything goes and I am not a makeup expert I just like to buy it every now and again! So from 1 learning makeup enthusiast to another I hope you one this helpful! 
I do think it's definitely worth the money as I was doing research on other brow sets because I never thought I'd get this one and for the large range of prices the sets are SO SMALL! This palette is very pigmented and the brushes work a treat, the highlighter has a pink tinge to it which looks amazing with most eyeshadows so I would definitely recommend to everyone if you want to have a practice at eyebrow techniques and not paying a fortune!

A DAY OF AA AND COLOUR

[Two Piece - American Apparel (discontinued)]
[Sunglasses - Boohoo.com]
[Shoes - Topshop (SALE)]
[Lipstick - Makeup Revolution]


I've already done a post with this outfit a while ago but it does deserve more recognition as it is an amazing piece! Bought from AA in Leeds for my 20th in April I got it just in time but they only had size larges left. Fortunately it fit me better than I thought it would and it was the last one so I had to have it! and to top it off I couldn't resist wearing my boohoo cat eye sunglasses. I literally wear them every day with everything! 
Also sporting the miley buns which match the wall in this fab colourful area of derelict land! I thought this outfit would be a bit of fun and includes the very "IN" vertical stripes to make me look taller than the small 5'6 I actually am, also helped by the platform shoes from Topshop sale £15 which I love! (especially when I get an extra 10% off because I am a student!) 
I wanted my lipstick to match my shoes so as I don't have a bag so I used a dark vamp shade makeup revolution lipstick thats £1 from superdrug which is very close to the blackness of the shoes to fill up the look! 











I will be putting this outfit on my depop as I don't have room for it anymore. So if you wish to buy my depop is @annahodgson and there is lots of stuff on there to buy!

Thanks for reading 

PEACE XO

BOHO VIBES



[Top - H&M]
[Trousers - TKMAXX]
[Bag - Camden Market]
[Jacket - Primark]
[Sunglasses Primark]
[Lipstick - MUA]

I was feeling very boho for todays post, so I thought i'd drag my flares out and a nice little plain top. These flares I got from TKMAXX in Braunschweig in Germany for about €5 but they do also sell them in our TKMAXX for £5-£7 which I think is a great price even if you only get 4-5 wears out of them. They're high waisted and SUPER comfy I could sleep every night in them! 
My top is from H&M and is just a casual basic cropped cami top, was about £3 last summer, it is a bit small for me now as i've put the most weight on but for photographs it did perfectly. I didn't really want a busy/patterned top as I have this gorgeous tassle sleeveless jacket thing which was only £3 from primark! (most of my wardrobe is as i work there!) The cream/white of the top contrasts with the black/grey of the bottoms which I really like and then to add a bit of colour I have my trust camden boho bag! 
Ever in need of summer items, Camden is my place to go. I JUST LOVE! I am taking a trip there this weekend so I will try and so a short post about my time there and where I visit/what I buy! As everyone knows I will come back with a train full! but back to the bag.. It's so hard wearing and can carry a tonne, i'm sure it was about £3.99 I've never had a problem with it and i've had it for years! 

I also have in these photos my favourite Topshop shoes which have been mentioned on a few posts now if you want to read more about them and how I wear them day-to-day!
