The Outfit: Black and Blue
Welcome back guys!
I'm quite behind on this blog post since I was extremely busy during this week and I'm going through some pretty exciting things, which will all be revealed soon!
I wanted to share with you my previous Church outfit that I basically put together last minute. I didn't really know what I wanted to go for but I knew I definitely wanted to wear my jean shirt.

I wanted to share with you my previous Church outfit that I basically put together last minute. I didn't really know what I wanted to go for but I knew I definitely wanted to wear my jean shirt.
Shirt - Gap
Jeans - 'Jamie' jeans by Topshop
Booties - Office
Bag - Longchamp
I don't know how many sweaters I've worn this season so I definitely wanted to change it up by wearing this jean shirt. I was lucky enough to convince my sister to leave it in my hands - can you say winning? ^-^
This outfit has a bit more accessories than the previous one, I love how simple they all are but the this is by far one of my favourite statement necklaces. I also wore a midi ring which I manage to put on my pinky! It's totally cute!
It's really cold at the moment in London but with this Zara jacket is one of the best jackets I own! This Longchamp bag may seem small but it holds so much!
Thanks for stopping by again!

The Outfit: Scarves and Hats!
Hi guys!
This is my very first outfit post! I'm so excited to show you some outfit ideas. I normally spend my whole week in black trousers and cosy jumpers at work so I never get the chance to dress up so I use Saturday and Sunday to do this. I hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed taking the pictures :)
It's very cold right now so I love wrapping up, especially with this beautiful scarf my handsome got me. I love that it's big and most of the time I take it to work with me so I can wrap it around me - even when the room temperature is 30 degrees! Did I mention I'm constantly cold?

Jacket - Zara
Cosy Jumper - Gap
True Skinny Jeans - Gap
Scarf - Spitafields Market
Boots - Topshop
Bag - Longchamp
Hat - Primark
I've never been too much for accessories, I'm suuuuuper casual. During this season I like big scarves and cute hats to complete my look. I LOVE these boots! Its the Topshop own brand and they were exactly what I was looking for. I don't really like heels, I think they're cute but they're not me, plus I'm saving myself a lot pain! My bag comes in handy every Sunday especially when I put my bible, planner, notebook and other things inside! This is my go to jumper, it's big and cosy and the best thing... My mum and I have exactly the same one so I love it even more
Thanks so much for reading and I'll be back with a new post very very soon!

The Review: The Body Shop Advent Calendar
Hi guys!
I know Christmas is over but I wanted to start on something that definitely impressed me during the season. The normal way to count down to Christmas day is with chocolates, however, two years ago I came across the wonderful world of beauty advent calendars on YouTube. I have since wanted one and this year my lovely husband treated me to one!
First impressions:
- The presentation is really pretty, its kind of simple but what makes it stand out a lot is the big red bow. I didn't want to open it at first because it looked so perfect haha.
- Big and heavy which meant they would have reasonable sized goodies.
- I wasn't too fond of the green colour but I guess green is a Christmas colour so... meh.
- It smelt amazing!
What you get:
- The box consists of 24 boxes plus a cheeky box for Christmas Day!
- Most of the gifts are sample sizes and these are good for me since I hate having to pour my face cream, body cream and any other cream into those small travel containers.
- They had four beauty products an eyeliner, Italian Summer Fig eau de toilette, eyelash curler, lip balms and a full size red nail polish. I love nail polish and I love the body shop nail polish since it dries quick, one coat can be enough and the formula in general is one of my favourites.
- I've heard and read reviews on the Body Shop Vitamin E range so I was excited to see they had included some samples of the toner, day cream and night cream. I'm going to finish off my current creams so I can give you a full on honest review on their Vitamin E range so be on the look out for that!
- You get A LOT of body creams and shower gels which I love since they're so easy to take with you if you travel often.
Is it worth it?:
Well... after opening 25 boxes, trying and loving some of their products and seeing reviews on other advent calendars I think it definitely is worth the money. I know many of the things I got will last me a while which is great but one of the things that I loved about Body Shop Advent Calendar was the fact that every box had a little motivational quote, which I thought was a nice little touch.
I definitely recommend this advent calendar to anyone who loves skin care, body care, beauty and the Body Shop! Would you get a beauty advent calendar this 2016?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I'm taking a turn on my blog and making it into something I have always wanted to do for such a long time but because I was always nervous and worried about what people would think I decided to put it off but now I overcame my fear, forgot about everyone else's opinion and decided to go for it!

Nails of The Week
Hi loves!
Wether you have acrylic, long, short, square or round tip nails, it's definitely something, as girls, we all share and equally love :).
It's been really cold in London recently, with some rainy and cloudy days, but Spring is on it's way - March 20th apparently ^.^ - and the days are getting just that bit longer.
I couldn't help but step out the 'dark nail look' and introduce a pop of colour to my fingertips! So, ladies, we begin with *drumroll* Essie 'Mint Apple Candy'!
This by far, is my favourite mint green nail colour and of course, we all love a bit of Essie.
They've been on my nails for a week and no severe chipping! Bonus!
