MONOCHROME NAIL ART TUTORIAL



Monochrome is really big this S/S13 but the trend doesn't just have to be shown through stripped dresses. This nail art is quick and easy to do. Nail art is something I love doing as you can see in THIS POST HERE. This video will show you how to achieve this look in no time at all. Ive used a mixture of Nails Inc Black Taxi, Floral street and DIORS Grege.

25% OFF ASOS FOR STUDENTS... What I Brought.

THE SWING DRESS

Prices don't include student discount. 
GO GO GO... its 25% off ASOS for students for 48 hours only and the swing dress style is all I want to buy right now. I've had my eye on these dresses for a while but was waiting for a good promo to justify buying them all.

I love this shirt dress and when I saw it I had to buy it. By some miracle there was one small size left and I was the last one to grab it before it sold out! I can imagine this dress with my black flat form sandals on holiday/when our english summer appears.

With this style of dress you cant go wrong. In the cooler days you can through on a light jacket and some thick tights and on the warm sunny days it is sassy enough on its own with a bold statement necklace.

This dress I though would look so nice with a pair of my Topshop Boots and the top of my frilled socks poking out. The cut out shoulders adds a more fun and sexy look without it being to much.

The swan print is a lot of fun, and a good way to follow the S/S13 monochrome trend. This with my new round frame ray-bans and over the knuckle rings is going to look lovely in the summer. 

What have you guys brought with the 25% off, I'd love to know!

CLARINS Mineral Loose Powder : Review







CLARINS Mineral Loose Powder In 02 Medium :  £30.00

I've been on a mad women hunt for the perfect powder. I can finally say i've found my holy grail. 
This powder is light weight on the skin and sets make-up, helping it last all day. I've got the kind of skin that make-up wears off just after a few hours but this has improved the last of my foundation dramatically.

MAC Blush In Well Dressed: Review







 MAC BLUSH : WELL DRESSED £17.50

I purchased this blush via Debenhams when they were doing a 10% off beauty promo. I always try to be savvy when I buy more expensive products whether its getting a few free samples or free delivery etc. I like to have a scan around to make sure I am getting the best deal possible. 

I chose this colour because I thought it defined Spring, its light, fresh and pastel much like most spring colouring in clothing and flowers. The product is well pigmented but is more designed for a paler skin tone. I find I have to apply a fair amount unlike a deeper colour such as Mac Stereo Rose.
