Spring/Summer outifit

I go to lots of special places in spring and summer. I'll be going to meals, birthdays, sheffield, celebrating the birth of my new cousin and whatever so I enjoy planning and buying different outfits around this time of year.

I thought these would look really nice together. The dress is from Forever 21 and it is priced at £18.75. The shoes are from New Look and they are priced at £15.99.
I havent found any jewlerry to go with it yet, I might already have some. If i purchase these I'll do an outfit of the day. I thought I would just show you all how I put outfits together anyway :)

Prom photo.

This is my prom photo. I'm in the blue dress at the front! I wish I'd smiled more, I look so moody :(
But yes, 2 months after prom we finally recieved our lovely keepsake.
Im so excited for prom this december now, It was a great night that I enjoyed alot :)
These are a few friends of my mine. My best friend Jess is at the back in a green/blue dress that you cant see that well :L
I thought I would share this with you all anyway, Its something very special to me.

My week in pictures.

I think that one picture can sum up my week.
I have done plenty of things this last week. Its been half term. I've watched the welsh rugby team train, I've climbed a mountain, I celebrated my mothers birthday yesterday but the most important thing that has happened this week is that .. My new cousin was born.

This is Lewis Keith. His middle name is Keith after our great grandfather. Isn't he cute?
He was born yesterday, I'm so happy he's here at last.
Unfortunately he lives in New Zealand so I won't meet him for many years. But its exciting to know there is a new, little member in my family. I'm very happy. :)

Nail varnish review - Raspberry, The Natural Collection

This picture is terrible I'm really sorry. Its difficult to firstly show you my nails AND the bottle. Its also a bad photo due to the lighting.
But anyway, This is a review of the nail varnish "raspberry" from The Natural Collection.
I adore the colour. It is a lovely shade of dark pink. It can look a little purpley in some lights. I think its a wonderful nail varnish which Im going to look forward to using alot.
The flaw of the nail varnish are that it was a bit messy to put on. I dont know if thats just me but I thought it was a bit runny. But for the price its worth it.
It doe take two coats to get a thick, proper colour but this is in the advertising so I cant slate that. I also put a top coat on to make it shinier which gave it a smoother, shinier finish.
The nail varnish cost £1.80/£1.90 or currently all of The Natural Collect make up range is on offer- 3 for £5 in Boots.
Its worth a try, its so cheap and its a great colour in my opinion.
Sorry for the terrible photo!

I have no idea what theme I am going for, maybe a bit of a vintage one and a bit of a pink one! I also love butterflys and flowers so thats why so many items have these on them.
There are a few other things I havent included such as my lamps, a laundry bin and stuff because they are boring!
Anyway I just thought I would share this post to show the things Im getting (hopefully!). Enjoy :)

A small haul.

 Rose print dress

I bought this dress in the Boohoo sale for £10. Unfortunately it is no longer in stock, but it may be worth checking out the other dresses in the sale on their website. I love the lace detail on the dress and the floral pattern. I haven't worn the dress out yet but when I have tried it on, it has been slightly short so I would wear it with tights or shorts underneath. It is flowy though which is nice.

Lace up ankle boots

These boots were also from Boohoo and they cost £15. I havent worn them out yet but they seemed comfy when I tried them on. I love that they fold over at the top and I think that the little heel is cute.

Floral top and green jeans - Outfit of the day

This floral top was from New Look and cost £11. These jeans were from Tescos and they cost £16.

The top is flowy and loose, but maybe this due to the size I bought. It has a knot thing at the bottom that I thought would be annoying but it hasnt bothered me at all.
I love the colour of the jeans. They are really comfy. The material is soft and smooth.
I wore this outfit today. My leather jacket was from a past New Look sale and cost £18. I wore white pumps with this which I forgot to include in this photo (sorry!).

Natural collection nail varnish

I have been keen to try these out for ages. They cost £1.90 each or they are 3 for £5. I bought these from Boots.

I only bought these today so I haven't tried them out on my nails but when I do I might do a review. I know you need to put on two coats to get the "full" colour.

The nail varnish on the left is the shade Frosted Plum.

                                         The nail varnish in the centre is the shade Raspberry.
                                         The nail varnish on the right is the shade Topaz.
Has anyone tried out the Natural Collection nail varnishes? If you have please comment and let me know what you thought about them. :')

Project Perfect

Photos of myself that I like, and why:

I like this picture for many different reasons. This is a photo of me before I went to my prom in december, I love my dress, jewlerry and shoes.

I like my skin tone, I had a spray tan which went a bit too dark but I loved being tanned, I hate being pale.

I adored my hair, I had thick, tightish curls and it was backcombed which I think really suited me. My mum also bought me some cute clips which you cant see in this!

My lashes and nails were also done in a beauty salon but you cant really tell. I loved having this lashes, I did my make up myself and I was really happy with how it turned out.

My nails were a lovely gold/copper colour, it was the first time I'd had my nails done and I enjoyed it, the colour was lovely and didnt chip off for weeks! 

I'm also really happy in this photo. I was pleased with my appearance and I was excited to get to prom (which I really enjoyed!!). I had a perfect day.

Three things that I don't like about myself, with a positive outlook:

1. I never used to like my freckles, I have plenty thanks to my fathers genes. But slowly as I have got older I have noticed I'm started not to care as much. I also get complicated on them, I always get told they are "cute".
2. I HATE my teeth. I had braces when I was around 12/13 but when I was 13 I moved to Wales which meant leaving behind my great orthodontist in England. When we was just settling in, the wire on my bottom brace had somehow come off and it cut my mouth badly. I pulled off the wire, I still had brackets on my teeth for a few weeks!
   The orthodonist here told me my teeth were fine and I didnt need braces. My teeth are not straight at all! My bottom teeth are actually really wonky and annoying.
   I am really self concious about my smile. However as my confidence has developed, my smile has improved! I'm gradually starting to become less annoyed with my teeth.
   Nobody has ever really said anything about my teeth either which is positive I dont know why I worry and despise them so much.
3. I dislike the stretchmarks on my legs. They are small and a red/purple colour, they look like cuts sometimes. However nobody has never really noticed them and Coco butter is helping them fade!

Three things that I like about myself:

1. I love my hair. I'm so proud of how long I've grown it. It can get annoying sometimes but I would never cut it short (I think). My hair is not naturally black. I started dying it black when I was 14, after a "dark chocolate brown" hairdye made my hair go black. I like the colour and I think it suits me.
2. I love my eyes. They are hazel - a mixture of brown and green. I adore the variety of different colours that I see in them. They are the same colour as my fathers, and the grandmother I never got to meet, so that makes the colour more special to me.
3.  I like my "size". I'm happy I can fit into size 8/10 clothing.
