Club Dos and don't

Hello,

As you know I turned 18 in March and went out almost every weekend  for about 5 weeks. I have curbed it now though as I cant afford it and it is just not good for your body to go out all the time. ANYWAY when you do go out here is my top tips.

• Wear Comfortable shoes.

This is the most important thing! Your night will be 10x better if you're comfortable. When you're drunk you are obviously a lot more wobbly as well so if you are wearing 10 inch stilettos there is a high chance you will end up hurting your ankle or falling over. I wear flats almost all the time I go out now, or if I feel like wearing heels I go for the wedges route. Here is some good places to get stylish flats and wedges.

1. Topshop £20
2. Topshop £15 (on sale)
3. Office £35 (On Sale)
4. Newlook £24.99
5. Newlook £14.99
6. Newlook £24.99

• Bring a coat/Jacket

So many people walk to clubs freezing, or stand in the que freezing, there is no reason to do that. Just bring a coat/Jacket and put it in the cloakroom! It is only £1.80 in my local club which is cheaper than a drink anyway. There are some really nice jackets out right now:

All three of theese are from river island

1. £50
2. £65
3. £60

Primark also have some really nice jackets at the moment and for a lot cheaper, so check them out.

• Be Equipped

First of all you need a bag that isn't too big or small. It would also be good to have a strap aswell, so if you want a clutch try and get one with an attachable strap. This is so you have your hands free to dance or hold your drink.

1. £18 River Island
2. £28 Dorothy Perkins
3. £14.99 Newlook

Next is what you should carry in your bag:

Tissues- incase there is no loo roll! ShopJeen $2

Plasters- Incase you get a blister, or have a drunken injury. $5 ShopJeen

Hand Sanatiser- Incase the sinks are crowded from girls touching up their makeup. $6 ShopJeen

Cash- Bring out enough cash for drinks and travel and don't bring your bank card. Seriously you will thank me for this. We all do it, get drunk and think it will be an excellent idea to spend all our money. This is not a great idea and it means the morning after not only are you hungover you also have a very poor looking bank statement. 

That is the essentials covered I may do another post shortly on good outfits for clubbing and where to get them.

Stay Cool

Where Have You Been!? March Edition

We're almost up to date! March was an amazing month for me. So much happened and has actually helped me evaluate life for good and bad reasons, but I think this is the month that shaped me most in my whole life an has helped me decide what to do with the rest of my life.

SO here it is -

From left to right

1. I wore tracksuit bottoms to college! & had a driving lesson
2. My hair looked really good for once
3. I wore a dalmatian onsie
4. Bus Bant
5. I turned 18
6. I went for a punk rock look
7. Mum decorated the dinning room with balloons and badges
8. I got Swarovski jewellery & an 18 champagne glass
9. I went out in Fareham for the first time and wore the Kate Moss Lipstick 
10. No idea haaa
11. Work!
12. Drew a snail
13. rekindled love for bright lips! & Plaits!
14. Went for lunch in London with dad & brother
15. pony tailssss
16. Layering necklaces is my new thangg
17. Went clubbing in Southampton
18. Went out for belated birthday celebrations
19. Fake eyelashes & tan for birthday celebrations
20. Day after birthday celebration.. fell down stairs in club, bruises to prove it.
21. mixed barry M with models own, recommend!
22. Still orange from spray tan!
23. Had my first boost of the year, sooo good!
24. Had my driving test, failed :(
25. Love for Mama K
26. Work with hang over :( 
27. Went to the gym
28. Felt ill, Alcohol caught up with me :(
29. Cheeky Easter treat
30. Belated present from the bro

SO in evaluation of my month, anyone that isn't 18 yet don't get me wrong it is good and you get a lot more freedom and can go out. However it is expensive and after a while alcohol gets too much you get ill you regret things when really i could have been at home blogging. But everyone has a crazy stage and that was mine. 

Now I have to focus on my college work and blogging and saving money. I need to get into uni so knuckling down is on the agenda! I have to re take my driving test also and pass this time.

I will be uploading more posts now hopefully, such as..

• empties video or post
• what to wear clubbing and what not to wear
• revision help
• managing finances
• about me
• how to cheer yourself up

and many more! Keep checking for updates

SS13 Preview- Plain Chequerd

A lot of people predicted the return of checkerd garments this spring/ summer and you were right they are coming and better than ever! Checkered clothing is such a stement and just ooze sophistication and confidence. 'Check'  out what desingers have shown on this years run way. (see what I did there)

It is no surprise the Louis Vuitton has yet again amazed us all with his cute yet sophisticated checked garments, one of my favourites is the crop top and max skirt combo, of course you would have to be model thin to wear this, but a girl can dream right? Have a look on the website here, which may I add is a brilliant website.

Next up Marc Jacobs strikes again with a checkered swim suit from Marc by Marc Jacobs. We want to be following the trends even when lounging by the pool and with this swim suit you would be the envy of all te girls and the desire of all the guys. I cant actually see it online but i spotted it in Vogue so have a look.

My Final piece I am mentioning is a large checkered dress by Chanel, shown at Paris Fashion Week. This is simple yet makes such a statement! The puffed out sleeves with the sinched in waist is the perfect combo.

Hello..

I don't know about you, but I am so excited about SS13 not just for the fashion which may I say is
B-E-A-utiful, I also have lots of exciting plans which means lots more blog posts! I'm going to IOW festival so will be making some festival essential posts and I am going on holiday to Turkey so will be doing what to pack on your summer hols, exciting stuff!

I will be doing a series of posts giving you an insight into what to expect this SS13 there is amazing things occurring in the fashion world and where better to get your information than right here? Are you ready??


I absolutely adore floral garments and they are popular almost every year for SS! Whether you're going to a festival, wedding or the beach florals are perfect for all ocassions! There are some outstanding items on the runway this year from the likes of Moschino, Holly Fulton and Oscar De La Renta.

For your highstreet fix on floral check out

Topshop

This Topshop Ombre dress is stunning and the sheer material keeps you covered up if you are in a hot country yet still keeps you cool. Also ombre style is staying with us through SS13 so you will be bang on trend.

Romwe

When I found this dress it was love at first sight. This beautiful ocean blue dress is so eye catching and looks like a piece of art! This would look great with some frilly ankle socks and some brouges.

Asos

Who said suits have to be masculine? This floral patterned suit from Asos adds a feminine twist in addition to the fitted blazer and skinny fit trousers, sophisticated and stylish! Also suits are making an appearance in SS13 so will have a blog about them soon, watch this space.

So there you have it, your floral fix! Look out for my next SS13 fix 'plain chequerd

More Lee Standford!

Hello!

It's been a while, I know, *slaps wrist*, but I have been a busy bee recently! I got a job! Praise the lord! I can finally fund my fashion obsession and pay for my car insurance and get my baby on the road (once I pass my test). I am the new employee at Coast to Coast Portsmouth. It's an American Diner with the most amazing food. Check it out here.

So, onto my actual post, and yes I am going to go on about Lee Stanford AGAIN! If you haven't seen my previous post about Lee Standford and ombre care, read it here. Boots still have a 3 for 2 offer, so instead of just buying the double blow hair mousse that I originally intended to purchase, I ended up buying two other products : Lee Stafford Sun Kissed Lightening Spray and the Lee Stafford Poker Straight Dehumidifier Spray.

The double blow mouse is really good if you have naturally curly or wavy hair. It defines each curl and is not sticky like many other mousses. For extra volume, after you have scrunched it through your freshly washed hair and blow dried, preferably with a hairdryer with a diffuser attachment, scrunch some more into the roots and blow dry again. Due to the non-sticky texture, you can apply it to dry hair and the extra root lift gives your hair that extra wild edge.

I am still on the fence about 'The Sun Kissed Lightening Spray'. You spray it onto the blonde in your hair after washed, whether that is highlights, ombre or all over, and brush it through. It is said to remove brassy tones within 2-3 uses but I haven't seen a dramatic change - or maybe only slightly. I will continue to use it though, and keep you posted. One more thing I noticed, is the smell. It smells like citron cleaning products, and is very strong. I personally am not a fan but if you just put another hair product on top, eg  mousse or salt spray then it masks the odour.

Finally 'Poker Straight Dehumidifier Spray'. It is perfect if you're one of those people who straightens your hair and it stays straight for five minutes, then starts to frizz. It keeps your hair perfectly straight and silky for a whole day! It is also good if you live in a hot country or are going away for the summer, as it also protects against frizz that is caused by heat. 

Go on and head down to you're nearest boots and give yourself a mid month treat. If you feeling extra naughty why don't you just order them now online here

Stay Fresh
