Hi guys! :)

So if you're like me and a lot of the time you can't seem to get out of your comfort zone of wearing black like all time, or your just simply having one of those days you feel kinda fat, bloated and you hate the world, then take a look of some of these outfits I've put together to suit any of your needs.

Denim jacket with acid wash from ASOS £40

Now I know this is mens but it can still work! I've been looking for a black denim jacket for a while but I love this because it's so different. If you wanted to go for the love/hate option of double denim, this would look good with some plain black jeans or some leather jeans. Also this would look great if you want to wear a midi dress but you're not sure whether it's going to get a bit colder later on in the day which is always a dilemma in good old Great Britain : | 

Silver Cross Trilogy hand chain from New Look £5.99

I've always loved all black clothing with some thin gold jewelry  but gold is so last season for me now, I'm loving silver jewelry with everything now, especially black! And hand chains are so in right now.

Silver chunky Eastern hoop earrings from New Look £5.99

These are perf for a really high top knot and extremely minimal jewelry with all black clothing.

 Limited silver chain plate choker necklace from New Look £9.99

These chokers have been around quite a while but have finally filtered down in to the high street  They're great for day or night and can make the simplest of outfits look amazing!

To have your nails done has always been a big thing for us girls, but for the past few years it seems to have become HUGE! Anything goes really, pointy, oval, square, super long, glitter, piercings and so on.

I've found a few amazing nail products that will look great for the Spring.

O.P.I in 'Alpine Snow' £10

This is a tad more pricey but if you have the money to spend it's 100% worth it. The quality is so much better than your average polish and the application is definitely easier. White is a beautiful colour for nails and the darker your skin, the better it looks!

Personally, I've never been much of a New Look fan, but over the past year it has seriously improved! I shop there a LOT now and would probably go as far to say 70% of my clothing comes from there as opposed to like 15% last year. The midi dresses in there I've found are very flattering and a really nice fit, plus they are soo many different styles to choose from! One thing that stands out in there for me is the jewelery, I mean it's not anywhere near Topshop's Freedom range but if you're on a budget it's amazing.

The shoes I'd say are still a little mediocre but there are a few pairs that I've bought recently that caught my eye. So anyway, I've chosen some things from their website to show you guys :) Enjoy...

Grey Space Dye Midi Tube Skirt £14.99

Product Code:278430009

Pink Peplum Shell Top £8.99

Product Code:262805577

Silver Statement Spike Necklace £8.99

Product Code:271613290

Now of course us girls would LOVE to own our very own Céline handbag, but unfortunately  not all of us are so lucky :( The beautiful bag has finally been filtered down from the catwalk to the highstreet, and I've found a few gorgeous cheap alternatives for girls on a budget :)

Do you always have products that you just can't live without for a certain time of year? Well, these are mine.

So this lipstick is Sleek's 'Barely There'. This is probably my all time favourite lipstick, the swatch doesn't even do it justice!  It's a perfect blend of coral and nude with a beautiful smooth texture. It's really versatile too, looks beautiful with a smokey eye and great with a completely natural look. I prefer it with a more natural look. It's perfect for spring!

These are my FAVOURITE of all time lashes. 'Eyelure Naturalites Intense' in number 140. Now I don't just buy Eyelure lashes, because I've found you can buy lashes of almost the exact quality of Eyelure lashes in a lot of hair shops, but there is not yet a replica of these specific ones. The reason I love these lashes is because the have a very thin strip (I find it impossible to wear lashes with a thick black strips, mainly the ones from eBay, you can get like 20 pairs of lashes for 99p but they're all basically useless because they look vile on). These Eyelure lashes are big, full, voluminous and the thing I always have to have when I wear lashes, winged out edges! I've always worn my eyeliner thick and winged, (inspired by Marilyn Monroe) I love that really classic look and it really accurateness my almond shaped eyes. 

Anyway, these are more of a night time/special occasion kind but I've worn them in the day before with a smokey eye. I usually wear quite a lot of makeup day or night time depending on the look I'm trying to achieve. At the moment you can purchase 2 packs of these for just £4 in ASDA which I was so pleased about, I'm an undercover bargain hunter!

Now, I know there's somewhat of a stigma around shopping in Primark but personally I don't see anything wrong with it. I mean, sometimes it can be bad, for instance if you dress head to toe in 'Primarni' (I hate that word) then it can sometimes look afwul, but I like to mix and match with highstreet stuff which I think is the best way. Anyway, I know a lot of people really don't like Primark shoes and bags, I have to admit I'm not a fan of their handbags but I love their shoes. So I came across all these shoes I've pictured at amazing prices. 

Next are the snakeskin heels, they have quite a chunky heel which makes them much more comfortable than most heels and much easier to walk in, they were also only £6!!!

Then there's the purple/silver sparkle shoes. Now these are really high and REALLY uncomfortable. Stupidly when I realised they didn't have my size, I purchased the size down because I loved them so much, I still wore them, I looked good so it was worth it :p -£16

Then I have the black suede studded flats, these were £6, they look amazing and they're SO comfortable!!!!

So i'm absolutely LOVING Zara right now! Believe it or not I've only been shopping here for about 6 months! Autum has got to be my favourite time for fashion, I'm obsessed with leather, suede, burgundy and fur right now so I've been slowly building up my A/W12 wardrobe. So yeah Zara have got some amazing pieces in at the moment and now that I've downloaded the app I'm never gonna have any money! :/ So anyway, I've posted some of my favourite items in the store right now, take a look, ENJOY!
