Blog Sale: MAC Products

Hola Amigos! Hope you are all well! I'm ok-ish... I've finally finished my degree (hurrah!) but I'm super broke because student loan & grant just isn't enough and in final year I could not afford working a lot..

Orly Jealous, Much?

This beautiful and rare summer heat wave in the UK practically demands for bright and summery colours, so I decided to go for this gorgeous non-shimmery minty green Jealous, Much? polish from Orly's Cool Romance summer collection.

It applies really beautifully, 2 coats and BOOM full opaqueness (or is it opacity?)! It's definitely one of these perfect nail polishes that are worth picking up! I think this little fella only retails at £5 at Boots, if I'm not wrong?! Please correct me if I am!!

Paired with a bright pink neon top or mint green jeans this would make for a brilliant accessory-type colour for sure!

What are your must-have colours for this beautiful British Summer?

Floral Playsuit: Primark
Pastel Floral Shirt: H&M
Necklace: Primark
Earrings: Topshop
Golden Belt: New Look

This outfit is from one of the days I went to Manchester Fashion Week! I completely forgot that I had the pictures and when I got ready to collage them I had to realise that I stupidly had resized them along with all the other pictures I took that day, so that's why the quality of these pictures ain't that great. I apologise. Also, there was only really one good picture where I didn't look like I was disgusted by what I saw (you know when you have the sun hit your face and your face goes squint? THAT apparently makes me look like I'm disgusted by something! Great!)

Anyways, the lovely Reena, who I hung out with at Manchester Fashion Week was kind enough to take these pictures of me! So, thanks Reena!!

So yeah, the playsuit is from Primark - I had just gotten it then and I've only worn it for a 2nd time since this day, because I, like probably everyone who owns a button-up playsuit, had to realise how incredibly impractical playsuits can be when you need the toilet and how you practically have to strip down to your underwear... But I still love this piece - it's sooo lovely floral and pink! I love it! I just wish it had some sort of zip on the side so you don't have to button it up, or instead of buttons it'd have a zip or something. More practical!!

But then again, when does fashion ever attempt to be pretty AND practical, right?! ;-)

OOTD: Mother’s Day

I bet the title is sending you into a wee little panic, but don’t! It’s NOT Mother’s Day in the UK today, so take a deep breath! However, it IS Mother’s Day in Germany today (I know, right? Why the hell are they celebrating it now rather than in March like normal people, eh?). Being German and even more so having a German mummy, I kinda need to go with that date, rather than the one we know.

But since I’m in the middle of my final round of final year exams (Hurrah!! Almost done with uni! Eeeek!), which also explains the lack of blogging hopefully, I haven’t really had a chance to find any gifts for her, let alone send them to her, so I thought I do a little blog instead – but not photos of me, but her!

Isn’t she beautiful? I can only be so lucky to look so fit at her age!

Now take a guess at how old my stunning mummy is – let me know in the comments and I’ll let you know how wrong you are :p EVERYONE GUESSES HER AGE WRONG muahahahaha.

Happy Mummy’s Day, mummy!!

PHOTOGRAPHY BY IOANA PHOTOGRAPHY

Another outfit post! This one is an older one, from mid March actually! I know, I know, tut tut to myself for not uploading these sooner - trust me, I've been tutting myself every time I realised I hadn't uploaded them yet!

I really like the pastel look this season! None of these items are actually from this season - I bought them all last year either during the season or during the after-season sales! Lucky me that the trend came back this season haha :-) Oh wait, the jumper might be from this season, I dont even remember! Ah well, you get the gist though! ;-)

Like with the pictures from the The Sky Is Blue Outfit, these pictures were shot by the gorgeous and very clearly talented Ioana Maria!! I can't wait to work with her again once I'm done with my exams. I've already hassled her, but so far no definite yes from her - bet she's busy with her uni crap too! But I've reached out to other amazing photographers so I don't have to insult you any further with horrible pictures of me against a white wall LOL.

Hope you like these pictures & the outfit!
