topshop make up is...

actually quite good. thought it would be shit because its their first one and all that, and they don't seem to have collaborated with any leading cosmetic brands, but hi 5 mr green it seems spot on! although why does the glitter not come with any sort of glue?! it's all over my fess!?! (does stay on pretty well though)

top 5 picks:


might do a make up face tomorrow and post a picture. BUT firstly!! been searching high and low for this seasons most sought after polish, chanel 505. and i found it! in topshop! ok no, i tell a lie, but its pretty similiar right? the limited edition chanel sold out, and iv struggled to find a likeness until now!

mossy

these first 2 photos are from spanishmossvintage.com - a shop i love! im especially loving their tribal/indian style pieces. i bought these boots from the vintage section in topshop lately and they remind me of smv. also check out their blog at smvblog.com

i love alison mosshart and her style seems to be very similar. i love how grungey she is.

blog the clog

i think these may have sold out at topshop now, but a bargain at £70 if you can still get your hands on them! they're pretty comfy.. i chose to wear mine with socks their first outing. i kind of like the first pair 2 which are a little cheaper at £40 and also not so high. the 2nd pair are exactly what i've been looking for after seeing alexa on the cover of Vogue wearing the Chanel clogs.

tba

firstly so glad i bought this tba dress! (available at asos, UO) so pretty!£153 but definitely worth it.

their dresses are so pretty! i've bought the collar one, and now im hooked! id definitely like to invest in the fringed dress.

big black chunky shoes

these are my favourite shoes right now, they're so comfy but i want something a little more chunky.






i'm loving chunky black boots & tuks at the moment. planning to buy these lovelies below off ebay today. the chunkiness makes your legs look slimmer, although i'm not a fan of them with trousers i love them with dresses.
i'm gonna look for some with wedges, but they're expensive on ebay. unlike a lot of fashion blogs, i'm not gonna post much about high fashion or catwalks; unless i find something similar to them for a lot cheaper that i wanna share. i dont think anyone enjoys reading blogs about stuff they can't afford..
they're currently at £2.99 with 1 bid, so fingers crossed.
