Rita Ora wearing Elle Saab

Rita Ora was recently seen wearing this beautiful pink Spring 2014 dress in Amsterdam. I am in love with this dress. I'm not normally a fan of bright colours like this as I like to stick to black a lot but this dress is amazing and the colour chosen compliments the dress just right.

This is a preview of the Elle Saab spring 2014 collection. It has a delicate lace body with a long rich material with a massive slit to show a little skin; just enough skin. Rita Ora wears this dress and makes it more edgy and diva like. It fits her body just right.

The Elle Saab dress was modelled  on the cat walk with sleek hair, a salmon-hued box clutch, and matching ankle strap pointed toe pumps. Rita Ora dressed this with her trade mark red lipstick curly hair and wore gold barely there gold sandals with it.

HOWEVER I think Rita's makeup kind of didn't go with the dress and the whole vibe at all. Even though red lipstick and curly hair is her trade mark I think that she should of steered away from that and gone for a more sleek look and wore a lot less makeup. More is sometimes less. A 1920's glam waved hair style would look much better on her with minimal natural makeup and nude lipstick.

All Fur Everything

I have always been into fur. Especial fur coats! Over the years I have collected at least 15 different fur coats. Different lengths, colour and fur lengths. This year I really think this whole fur thing has been taken to a next level within the high streets. Of course I will be taking part and buying fur everything.
 
My favourite colour fur is definitely black and out of all my coats I wear I definitely get complemented more wearing my black fur one. This years must buy is a black fur hat and snood. This is a great as it is fashionable and great for this weather. Fur is the best type of material to keep you warm in the horrible cold weather!                                                                                              
 

This fur snood comes in at a reasonable price of £12 pounds; which I think is a good price. However I'm sure eBay will do cheaper options. Just type into 'fur snood' in the eBay search engine.

 
 
As I said fur is going to a different level this year and I have just today brought a black fur midi skirt...
I first saw someone wear this weird creation on tumblr and it looked amazing. So when I came across this on River Island I had to buy it! Even though I am TRYING to save my money for the January sales. But lets face it some things are just too nice to not have and would be very rude of me to not have! I have only ordered the skirt today so I should be receiving it around Wednesday this week. Hopefully it looks great in the flesh.

Clueless 90's Fashion..... Tartan is back!

So, i haven't posted in a while! Well it feels like it so i thought it was time to post today!

If your into your fashion you will know that tartan is back. This look originally comes from the 90's, which is also my favourite fashion era! But when i think about tartan i think of Clueless!!

If you wasn't born in the 90's then you most like wont have a clue about what on earth i am going on about. So what is Clueless? I would say Clueless is the original Mean Girls. But high fashion Mean Girls. I was watching it today and the fashion that is in that film is most definitely in today's high street. 
Clueless in relation to fashion is ALL about the tartan, matching cute suits, knee high socks and just glam!!! Even Hayden Williams has recently illustrated the Clueless gang! That's how you know it is high fashion.
The 90's are most definitely back!






Get your 90'S look now!

Halloween Outfit at... Outfit

I work in a store called Outfit. It is a large branch and has shops such as Topshop, Topman, Dorothy Perkins, Miss Selfridges and Wallis in it. I enjoy working there a lot its great fun and yesterday was Halloween, so of course all the staff members had to dress up!

I decided to dress up as a black cat and go all out with my makeup, wear cat ears and wear all black.
All i needed was a black eyeliner and red lipstick! It literally took me two minutes to do which was good as i was in a rush to get ready for work! ( I will post the tutorial i followed bellow)

I wore black from head to toe. I wore a long sleeved black top and a shiny PVC midi skirt. It was great outfit choice as it was playful but still fashionable. But that will be the last time i wear a skirt to work! It was definitely not suitable. But now i know!

Marble Effect Nails.

I am all about getting your nails done! Its a must. I have been going to have my nails done for over three years now every two weeks. I am obsessed; its got to the point that i don't even remember what my real nails look like. I will never will be able to even cope with just my natural nails again! Never! 
It is fake vs. natural and fake will be winning every single time in my books. Having acrylic nails gives your nails a perfect finish and makes nail varnish last longer. Whereas natural nails break easily; don't look perfect; doesn't keep nail varnish on without chipping for long and if your nails are naturally very long they look horrendous. 

As it was Halloween yesterday i decided to go for black and to make them more interesting i went for a black and white 'marble effect' on my ring finger. 

I saw this 'marble effect' on YouTube way back and it does look like magic when its done. It involves getting a cup of water dropping nail varnish in the water, making your own design in the water and then dipping your nail in for the nail varnish design to transfer on your nail. It is like a unique homemade transfer. I will add a tutorial for you all too see below. 

I got these done by someone called Jay who does mobile nails. She is located in the UK, Birmingham. So if you would like her to do your nails drop her an email: jayhbrownsuga@hotmail.co.uk. I recommend her!
