This A/W brought Baroque dresses back to the fashion scene, with designers like Dolce & Gabanna making a massive impact, through skate dresses and many other styles…

This style is also hot on the high street so, I have found 3 dresses which have great prices, and have also found 3 accessories which will match the style. I hope you enjoy, and it will get you ready for the ‘Part-aaay’ month 🙂

Jacquard Sheer Panel Dress £55.00 & Jet Chandelier Earrings £12.00 (Warehouse)

The Christmas Decorations will have competition with this dress! Change it up, and instead of Gold, go for Silver. Add these earrings and you’ll stand out from the crowd, for all the right reasons!

Black Metallic Baroque Prom Dress £80.00 & Black Zip Front Peep Toe Heels £70.00 (River Island)

Yes, X Factor Ella Henderson wore this dress! So it’s extra special! I actually spotted her wearing it, and was like ‘Hey, look that’s from River Island.’ Ha. Anyway, I love it and could be used for many other special occasions. Add it with these peep toe heels, for a bit more sophistication.

Embellished Jacquard Dress by Rare £49.00 & SOLO Bow Back Court Platforms £65.00 (Topshop)

I love this dress because it is so easy to work. These Bow Back shoes, look so elegant, and all you need to do is add black tights! This dress is also perfect for curvier women, as it brings them out in the best way possible!

This is my first Christmas Gift Guide and it is from a Girly Girl, for other who love pink and flowery patterns… (Yes, that’s my definition).

Feelin’ Dandy Lip & Cheek Kit £24.50 (Benefit Cosmetics), Neom Real Luxury Scented Candle, Lavender, Jasmine & Brazilian Rosewood, 3 Wick £39.50 (John Lewis)
Ballerina Wave Cushion Cover £8.99 (Dunelm Mill) & Karen Millen Pencil Dress with Lace Detail £190 (ASOS)

I hope you get some inspiration, and also thanks to the Girly Girl who gave me things to put in this guide 😉

I thought this post would be a good idea, since here in France it is pretty much all four seasons at the moment. Some days we have rain, some days it’s hot, some day’s it breezy, and some days it’s plain old cloudy. So, if you’re in need of an outfit which will fit all four seasons, this is the one for you!

Jakarta Jumpsuit £59.00 (Oasis), Light Pink Pocket Blazer £40.00 (River Island), STATUS Pointed Wedges with Metal Toe Cap £28.00 (ASOS), River Island Chunky Spike Friendship Bracelet Pack £15.00 (ASOS) & Metal Frame Clutch Bag £12.50 (ASOS) = £154.50!

This outfit is perfect because, you can wear it for different occasions and for different seasons. I think it’s one which should stay in your closet all year round!

Bonjour! I haven’t spoken for ages! Quick update…

1 – The house is really nice!

2 – We had to clean the pool and refill it, so we can’t use it yet…

3 – My sister is coming in like 6 Days!

4 – I can’t get WiFi in my house until 3 weeks… (Using a neighbours!)

Anyway, I love nice, clear YouTube videos, and MichellePhan is one of them! Take a look…

I was researching some DIY things on YouTube etc, and came across this! I thought I would do a DIY as it is so simple, and so nice! There are 2 ways of doing it, but I did it with pads. First some research about Green Tea…

Green Tea can…

• Reduce aging.
• Counteract Oxidisation.
• Support the immune system – If used as a drink.
  
• Refresh tired skin.
• Protect your skin for harmful sun rays – You may still need to use a sun lotion, so don’t just use Green Tea!
  

You can use this in a spray bottle – All you have to do is pour the tea into the bottle, and use it as a toner.

Oh, and this is my last post until I get internet! Or should I say… Oh, et ceci est mon dernier message jusqu’à ce que j’obtienne internet! (Google Translate! Ha Ha…) So… Au Revoir!

I recently applied for a tester of this new Maybelline BB Cream, and because of moving I didn’t think it would arrive, but I received it this morning! I am really happy I did, and you can see why below! You can get a free tester via me, if you message me saying you want an invitation for some samples, and then I will get it done for you, and then you just have to receive a message with the invitation!

1 – Q&A for BB Creams:

• What is a BB Cream? Maybelline say that a BB Cream is not a foundation, and is not just a moisturiser, but is a lightweight cream that makes you look fresh-faced and perfected, and not ‘made-up’.
• Why go for Dream Fresh? Maybelline also say that you should go for it because it is oil-free, and is water-based which means it is much lighter than most other BB Creams. There are 4 shades so you can find the right tone, and there is no fussing, no caking and no tide marks. It is just 8-in-1 perfection with SPF 30 protection.

2. Is the 8-in-1 True? What Maybelline says, and my answers:

• Imperfections look blurred – Yes.
• A Natural looking glow – Yes.
• Fresh Feel – Absolutely.
• Compliments Skin Tone – Definitely.
• Skin looks smooth – Yes.
• Hydrates – Yes.
• Protects with SPF 30 – Yes.
• Oil-Free & Non-Greasy – Yes.

What exactly do I think?

I have never used a Foundation because I generally don’t need it at my age, but I have heard about BB Creams, and I thought I should try it out. Maybelline has got it right! It is exactly what they say it is. It is so light! It feels amazing, and it literally feels like you aren’t wearing anything. I think it is great if your skin is pretty much fine, but you have little bits of red areas or little tiny spots etc etc. I really want to get the actual BB Cream, but for now inbetween the move, I will have to stay with these testers! I really do recommend this BB Cream, it is a Dream Cream!

Tint: 10/10 – Really compliments well.

Feel: 10/10 – Fresh, clear, light feeling, as if you’re wearing nothing!

Coverage: 9/10 – It is really light but blends so well, and is great for small blemishes.

OVERALL: 10/10 – I really want this BB Cream, and ASAP, I will be getting it!

You can buy this BB Cream from Superdrug for £7.99 but they also have a deal which means it is 2 for £10!

One of the big trends for this upcoming season is Hair Accessories. From clips, to hair ‘necklaces’, you need to have a statement piece. I have found 5 awesome pieces for you to choose from, and get inspiration from…

Spiked Headband £10.00, River Island Beaded Head Band With Dangle Feather £9.00, River Island Tan Feather & Charm Dangle Stretch Hair Band £10.00, Hair Quiff £6.00 & French Connection Exclusive to ASOS Animal Set of Slides £2.00 (All from ASOS).

This post is all about Celebrity Fragrances, pretty much because of the launch of the new Cher Lloyd Fragrance, so I thought I would take a look at some of the Celebrities who have launched a new scent recently! (Pictures from The Telegraph)

Cher Lloyd

I think the bottle of this perfume is cute and fun, but I am not sure whether I would really want to smell of Cher Lloyd, as ‘TBH’, I am not one of her biggest fans.

The Pope...?!

I actually couldn’t believe it when I found this! The Pope, actually has a perfume? Anyone for trying? Haha!…

Barack Obama

Yes, another crazy one, but it isn’t his, thank goodness! You would’ve expected the President of America to have had better designers with him! I am glad it is just inspired! The name kind of reminds me of a good old tune…. ‘Can we fix it? Yes We Can!’

Justin Bieber

Some people say that Justin Bieber isn’t feminine, or anything…. Well, this is him at his launch of ‘Someday’, his fragrance for girls. I would definitely not get this, as I just don’t like Justin Bieber, but if you do, I guess you’ll be in a dream world….

Lady Gaga

Back to the females of the world… and tiny little men! What do you think is the first thing? This campaign, doesn’t really show off the bottle does it? Just kind of makes you look at a naked Gaga, and men climbing all over her. Don’t really know whether I would want to take a sniff of it? Maybe…

Naomi Campbell

Surprising in deed! You would think an upmarket model would have an upmarket looking fragrance wouldn’t you? Not pink and fluffy…. okay…. moving on swiftly…

Tulisa

WOW! Last but certainly not least… Tulisa! First thing which is wrong, is that dress. Red + Black = fine. Red + Black + Pink Bottle = No. I don’t think I would ever think of knowing what this smells like!

This is Part 2 of my A-Z Make-Up Tips (H-N)! If you didn’t see the first part, click here! If you see any mistakes, the reason is because my fingers are just too fast, my brain cannot catch up! Ha Ha!

A YouTube Vlogger has inspired me to do a beauty tutorial on Bed Time Beauty… or Morning Beauty! So here it is!

My Scrub cost me £1 from Poundland, and all though it is cheap, it is briliant! It smells amazing and feels amazing!

I have the Soap & Glory 'Righteous Butter'.

Hope you enjoyed it! Sweet Dreams!
