Topshop Make Up - Glitter Eyes

It's been a while, hasn't it? I mean since my last beauty post, but oh my gosh it's worth it. For one, it's glitter and that's reason enough to shout out your own window to the rest of the street at how light reflecting and flipping amaze balls (cringe all you like, it's a thing I'm now saying) it is.

Anywho, this glittery goodness is from good old Topshop, the holy grail of highstreet brands. It's got a built in primer in the lid (with a tiny mirror too) and on the bottom is the glitter in a pot.

Let's begin with aesthetics: the packaging of the product is compact, simple and true to the rest of the Topshop make up range. Bottom line: it fits it's purpose and that's all I can ask for.

The glitter and the primer combination work well together; the primer is has a harder, tacky consistency which holds the glitter on reasonably well. The glitter itself is finely ground and not itchy like I expected, and feared.

I wore it for my birthday festivities: winged out on my eyelids and also on my lower lash and dusted on my cheekbones. My mum used it dusted on top of her bronzed smokey eye, too. I think the product has great versatility, and I've got my eye on the silver one too for the winter. *swoon*

The MOM Jeans

Jeans: Topshop
Top: Primark
Shoes: New Look 
Necklace: Dorothy Perkins
Nails: Barry M Gelly Nail Effects in Papaya

I don't remember the last time I wore jeans, or owned a pair. Me and jeans aren't really friends, me and Cigarette trousers however, BBFs. Anywho, finally I've found a pair that actually fit me; I've got odd legs - ankles like and anorexic, thighs like an elephant. WOO! THANK YOU TOPSHOP!

Mom jeans: slightly skinny legged, super high waisted and turned up at the ankle (which'll make my legs look a bit longer). I think these were sent from heaven specifically for me, we are feeling good. Very good.

Have a lovely day,

Fashion Fridays: Monochrome

Black and white hit the spring/summer catwalk shows like a speeding train and is still pretty hard to avoid. Whether it's in chequered, polka pots, stripes, or just plain and simple, it's such an easy trend to jump on board with.

What I like with this trend is that's so versatile and can also be done with little money spent for the same result, added bonus! So here's my high street must haves to achieve this style.
Doesn't this just scream 'bad sandy'? I really love the vintage style slash neckline.
Pair this with white Dr Martens, white nails and matching white clutch bag. Perfection.


Comfy, gorgeous and classic. 

A cute twist on a sophisticated crisp shirt.
Pair with leather skater skirt, sky high heels and hot pink lips.

Big prints are a style after my own heart,
I definitely need this Bomber Jacket in my life asap.

I thought i's end on something,that I'm not 100% convinced by:
hidden wedge trainers, despite being right on the monochrome trend,
I'm not sure they're quite my thing.
Although, they would look perfect with the Topshop bomber jacket.
