Moschino S/S15 Barbie Collection


I couldn't not write a post on the recent Moschino fashion show for their Spring Summer 2015 collection in which Jeremy Scott looked to Barbie for his inspiration. I must say I love the collection, it bought me back to my childhood and how could I not love it when everything is so pink! I adored everything in the show from the leather co-ordinates and exquisite evening dresses to the Barbie T-Shirt and that phone case every girl now wants. 

Below I have put together some of my favourite looks and pieces from the show.  









 

24/09 OOTD

blouse - Warehouse 
skirt - River Island 
shoes - River Island 

I have recently been buying my first winter purchases including this leather skirt, I wore it for the first time on this day and seen as though winter hasn't hit us just yet, I brightened the skirt up with some neon colours. I love this skirt its really comfortable and a great fit and I can see my self wearing it a lot through out the winter as it can be worn day and night time. The orange shoes are also a recent purchase, I seen them and had to have them I am obsessed with points and want a pair in every colour. Surprisingly these shoes look great with a lot of outfits as colour clash is on trend. I opted for silvery chunky jewellery with this outfit which I borrowed from my mam. I wore my hair in a wavy pony tail and went for a neutral makeup look with a bold lip using MAC 'Candy Yum-Yum' lipstick which is the same colour as my blouse. 

September Makeup Wishlist

Again it has been a couple of weeks since I last wrote a blog post and thats because I have been so busy but I'm back and I have a lot to talk about. I have a few posts lined up but I wanted to start with this one because I feel like I haven't talked about makeup for such a long time and I am dying to splurge at some of my favourite makeup counters.

MAC 'Velvet Teddy' Lipstick - I have always went for pink lipsticks but lately I have preferred a nude/brown lip colour and my main inspiration for that is Kylie Jenner, not only am I obsessed with her wardrobe but I love her makeup, in particular her lips. I've done some research on what lipstick Kylie uses and three colours from MAC come up they are called; 'Faux' 'Twig' and 'Velvet Teddy'. I was pleased to know that the lipstick she uses are MAC because it is my favourite brand and I am wanting to expand my collection. I think I will go for 'Velvet Teddy' because I think that colour will suit me best but the next time I am at a counter I will be asking for some advice on what I should go for to achieve the colour I am hoping for. 



Guerlain Terracotta Bronzing Powder - This is a product I have wanted to get my hands on for ages. I recently bought MAC 'Matte Bronze' bronzing powder and after using it for a while I have decided I am not happy with the colour, I think the product is good for contouring but not for an all over bronze glow. Terracotta bronzing powder is a legendary makeup product and I have heard so many great reviews about it and I'm dying to try it. 


Also I have 4 spaces left in my MAC palette and I'm trying to decide which eyeshadows should fill up the last spaces. I think I have all the neutral colours I need so I'm focusing on bright colours, I already have a few different shades or purple so I'm thinking I will go for a bright pink and maybe a deep blue. I can't say exactly what colours I will choose as its hard to judge colours online but I will post a haul whenever I buy them. 

Its getting to that time where I am running out of all of my everyday products such as my foundation, eyeliner and concealer. It seems they always run out at the same time and it ends up costing me a small fortune to repurchase them. I will definitely be repurchasing my favourite Charlotte Tilbury foundation which I have raved about in previous posts and I will be buying probably my 10th MAC Liquidlast eyeliner. I have been using the MAC Pro Concealer Palette since the beginning of the year and I have used almost all of it, this product is quite pricey but it is great value for money as it holds 6 different shades of concealer and it has lasted me so long so I will also be buying this again.

Recent OOTD

I feel the need to make up for my lack of posts lately, I love wearing white and bright colours in the summer and I try to wear as little black as possible, so I thought I would post this look from last month before I begin posting my autumn/winter looks in which black and dark colours will be a staple! 


top - Miss Francesca Couture 
jeans - H&M 
shoes - River Island 


With this outfit I wore muted gold accessories and went for a bold makeup look, wearing super smokey gold eyes and nude lips and I pulled my hair into a sleek pony tail.

Celebrity Fashion

Firstly I must apologise for the lack of blog posts in the last few weeks, I've been quite busy lately and haven't been able to find the time, however I will be getting back in to a regular blogging routine as of now! 
So many of my recent blog posts have been about makeup which is of course my favourite subject, but unfortunately I haven't bought any new makeup since my last haul so as you can imagine I'm pining for a trip to the MAC counter. I've been trying a lot of different eye makeup looks lately which I would love to share with you but I can't because I lost my phone which means no camera!!! Basically this is another excuse as to why I haven't been posting on here, so with my lack of new makeup and OOTD's and FOTD's, I decided to write this post on which celebrity fashion I have been loving this past month!


Does J.Lo ever get it wrong? At 45 years old J.Lo is still keeping her style young, fun and fresh and she's even rocking pigtails, possibly inspired by Ariana Grande. Some may not agree but I think she looks amazing in both of these outfits,  I wish I could dress like this everyday and those orange court shoes are on my wish list!  



I am so obsessed with Kylie Jenners style, this year she has really made an impact and truly put her self on the map! In these images she is rocking denim and leather and although this isn't something I would wear I think she looks fabulous, I don't know of anyone else who could make a massively oversized shirt look so good! 


Its so hard for me to write a celebrity fashion blog with out talking about the Kardashian/Jenners because I love just about everything they wear, I'm especially loving the more 'casual' looks they have sported lately. Here is Kylie again wearing another of my favourite fashion items, denim boyfriend jeans, I love how she has dressed them up with a silk cami. 


Again everything is on point here for the autumn season! leather, sweat pants, crop tops, points - big inspiration for my autumn/winter wardrobe! 



I love Nicki Minaj's new toned down look, she still manages to stand out from the crowd with out the crazy wigs and outfits. I love her more than ever now! 


Here is Iman, Rihanna and Naomi Campbell in a Balmain Campaign. If I became a millionaire one of the first things I would do is revamp my wardrobe and kit myself out in Balmain and hire Oliver Rousteing as my stylist. This campaign oozes everything I am loving this season, khaki green, leather, embellishment and leopard print which never seems to go out of fashion!
