OOTD


                       
Tights - Target
 

Here it is a very school girl look, I actually wasn't aiming for that when I got dressed this morning it just kind of turned into that. I was wearing a white collared shirt underneath unfortunately the lighting in my room is not the greatest. For shoes I wore a simple pair of black flats with little bows on them and introducing one of my favorite Blackmilk pieces the white burned  velvet skirt. I did wear this to work as the skirt is long enough and throw on the blazer, there you have it a great work outfit. Blazers fix everything, I swear, they are a must have in your closet.
What do you guys think?

2015 Spring Fashion Week Trends

Statement lips, bold and not so bold eyeliner, pops of colour, smokey eyes (a smokey eye will never go out of style) and even the bare minimum is what took over this years runways for Spring's 2015 Fashion Week!


 

There wasn't a definite trend with eyeliner as it went from none - simple - dramatic, from pictures it looked as if almost every designer had their own idea of what should be done with the eyeliner, the colour trend popped out in a lot of different shows.

Bold Lips

I'm not sure if I've made it clear on this blog but I am a lipstick slave, I will rarely leave the house to go do something without something on my lips, I own a ridiculous amount probably more than I will ever use but hey, you can never have enough different lip colours right? So I absolutely LOVED seeing the bright and bold or the dramatic and dark lips.

(Number 21)


(Missoni)


(Dolce & Gabanna - Kendall Jenner, one of my style icons, I adore her)

COLOR POP

I loved seeing the different ways colour was being used on the eyes, the creativity behind these shows and the make up artists is truly amazing and I only dream to get a glimpse one day. There was a lot of blue used I noticed while looking through photos and purples, I am not a fan of purple because I have yet to master the look it not looking bruised...


(Honor)


(Max Mara)


ALMOST NAKED

The au naturel look, bare minimum. I think this will always be a trend during spring and summer just as the smokey eye will always be a trend.



(Tory Burch)

My favourite was definitely the pops of colour, it gave me a lot of inspiration. Let me know which one you guys love in the comments!

Rimmel - STAY AWAKE

Hello everyone! Another new post, I'm like a whole new person who posts regularly, haha.

I'm going to talk about concealers, I don't think I've ever done a post on any sort of cover up so this will be new for me and all of you. I wanted to talk about Rimmel London's Stay Awake concealer (p.s. they have a foundation too which is F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C, highly recommend).



I have the lightest shade suitably name "very fair" for my poor pale skin.


This concealer has a nice creamy texture to it, I recently heard someone saying theirs had got watery after a while I have never had this problem and I've had this concealer for a few months now. The coverage is light - medium I'd say as you can see in the above photo, covered a few freckles at least! I would not recommend this a under eye concealer if you have very dark circles. I don't even have extreme dark circles but I find this is not enough to cover mine so if you're searching for that HG concealer this won't be a great option for you. Rimmel being a drug store brand is super affordable and this concealer is available at most drug stores/department stores. I picked mine up at Wal-Mart for around $9.99 CAD.

What do you guys think of this concealer? Let me know in the comments
