HOW TO WEAR : THE WHITE T-SHIRT

I've had my eye out recently trying to figure out what look I want to own next. Us girls don't just need party dresses and cute cosy jumpers, sometimes at work they turn on the heating... alot... and you start sweating in those mohair massive sweaters but then you cant take 'em off because all you've got on underneath is a bra-let... or some strappy tiny top that breaches works "core standards". Yes. Girls, we have to invest in impressive, stylish, lovely white t-shirts.

Again, you're welcome.
I've lined up my favourite white slogan tees above and matched them with some autumn winter cult jeans below. Let me know what you think ladies!

Baggy, ripped, team them with stilettos. Rock and roll.

Jean number 2: The high waisted skinny jeans

Moto Vintage Joni Super high waisted jeans - £36.00 TopShop

So there you have it, dress down Fridays DONE.

TOPSHOP WISHLIST : OCTOBER

Hi guys hi guys hi guys! Happy Hump-Day. How is everyone's week going? I know it's raining and horrible but here is a little treat to pick up your mood. Woop Woop TopShop have had a new load of stock that is absolutely fabulous darling and we're excited to wear all the above and all the below! So let's get started shall we?

From top left clockwise:

Heavy embellished Beanie £20.00I don't know if I have mentioned how hard I have found it to find a decent beanie. This one jazzes up any wool coat, make sure you find one that matches your coat though, I mean, dont try and make this go with a parka... it doesnt work.. believe me.Petite Crystal Necklace Jumper - £46.00
It just reminds me christmas is coming. Perfect thing to wear to see your boyfriends parents. Classy, cosy, well done toppyshoppy. Comes in purple, grey and navy on the website. I swear I saw one in the shop in mustard. HUMMANA.

Warm handle check Scarf - £18.00
Tartan scarves, they're everywhere and they're pretty. No explanation needed.

Heart M Initial Midi Ring Pack - £5.50
Obviously I have picked "M" for "Manda" but these are so cute and come in every letter. I have struggled to find the right midi-ring yet and these are just precious and cute. Also perfect for a mate for a little christmas present.

Doc Martin's black Heeled Boots - £90.00
My god, this 'alice' style of shoe is so in. I have seen it pop up almost everywhere (even in primark I think), but also, Doc Martins are in right now too. In a big way. Two birds, one stone. I think these will treat your feet well with the winter weather coming up. Timeless. You will be wearing them in 2014. Promise. 

Sleeveless Diamante Shell Top - £38.00
I dont know if you've seen the dress in zara in the same print to this thats around eighty pounds. I love the print but cannot afford to buy eighty pound dresses willy nilly. This top is gorgeous. Perfect with skinny jeans on a night out or the quilted a-line skirt as below. Beaut.

Forest Quilted A-Line Skirt - £40.000This ticks so many boxes for me, its faux leather, check, it's quilted, check, it's a-line and gives you that great shape, check, it's classy. Sold. Plus black tends to go with alot. Even the grey crystal jumper as above.

Extra Chunky Link Chain - £20.00
Ok so this is very different to the clothes on the left, it's like fun ghetto oil slick jewellery. Oil slick is good. Repeat. Oil slick is good. Keep an eye out. This looks great fun to me, team with an LBD and matching blue clutch. Hello ladies night. Just don't overdo it with massive earrings too.

Crepe Tee Shift Dress - £45.00
Do we all remember Cameron Diaz in my best friends wedding? When that film came out we were all like woah, who the hell would wear a dress like that? You, because it's 2013 and that dress is bloody awesome. I saw someone in it on a night out and I got genuinely jealous. Yeah, I know. That's how good it is.

Bat attack jumpsuit - £60.00
I'm 5'5 and I love jumpsuits. They are for everyone. If you're reading this I would like to set you a mission of trying one on. This print is fun, it's halloween soon, it's fitting, it's fun. Love it.

Circle Cut out ring - £4.50
Sometimes simple is the best. This ring is lovely and adds a bit of spark to any outfit.

Metallic Croc Lady Make-Up Bag - £10.00
It's only a tenner, it glows, it's croc. I know it's a make up bag but surely you could use it to go out with too? It even matches the blue oil slick necklace. Dreamy.

Plastic perspex Clutch - £15.00
Blimey, this ones cheap as well, for topshop. Ive seen that they have lots of perspec clutches like this at the moment, black ones, holographic ones, this one is my favourite. There's such a theme with crystals and moonstones at the moment it seems like a good investment for the party season.

Waa, it's over. Well I hope you enjoyed my topshop wishlist for october and im excited for the party dresses they bring out for new year.

Till next time,

REVIEW: AWKWARD PEACH FROM BLEACH LONDON

Ok...I could hardly stop myself, it was payday on friday and I ran to the shops to check this OUT. My roots were horrendous anyway! Grosssssss.

I bought the following:

1. Total bleach - to re-do my roots and make sure all of the black had gone gone gone.

2. White Toner - to get rid of the brassy yellow toners in my hair

3. Awkward Peach toner -because I've had my hair dyed baby pink before and I loved the peach colour it went as it was fading out. I love the way peach looks and after researching a few images... such as this one below, I didnt see any reason not to give the blonde a bit of a peachy rinse.

After what seemed like hours and hours of bleaching my hair (anyone who uses the BBlonde I recommend you try their bleaching kit because its really good quality and I hardly had any brassiness afterwards). I then put the white toner on my hair for 30 minutes and my hair looked so good afterwards I almost didn't peach it up at all! It looked great like I'd been to a salon and my hair was in great condition.Absolutely love the white toner!

Last night before I went out for a meal I popped the peach toner on... It goes on and looks pink on my head and I had a disaster with a lilac colour a year ago where it took around a month to wash out completely after id put it on top of platinum hair so I only left it on for 5 minutes (it says to leave it for 20 but I think if I did I would have had pink hair completely). Results were fantastic and I have 8/10 of the bottle left - thats after putting it on my whole head so Ive got loads more opportunities to top up my peach again.

I usually bought the directions or loreal colours to tone my hair but this one is great. I usually feel like my hair gets damaged with the other ones slightly, but not this one. It smells great, feels great and you know your hair will survive! Only a fiver from boots and I have another 4/5 opportunities to do it again. Winning!

I'll add more pictures on my instagram for when I do it again...Let me know what you think? 

Till next time,

Millie Mackintosh's style

How much are we loving the hair? At first I was surprised and then shocked and then unsure and now I'm in love. Well done Millie. Here's her cracking outfit that you can buy yourself from Asos! Perfect for a date or a night out with the girls... amirite?

ASOS PETITE Quilted Jacket In Floral Print - £27.00

ASOS Skater Skirt in Quilted Floral Print - £36.00

There you have it. If you've been unsure on a good two piece outfit I think we've found a winner. Let me know what you think of this piece and whether you would wear it out? 

 Till next time,

WISHLIST @ CHOIES.COM

A good few posts back I listed a Mickey Mouse Sweatshirt I bought from Choies.com. I was so chuffed with the quality of what I got and how good the sizing on me (I'm a 10-12 shorty pants at 5'5). I usually struggle to find clothes that fit me just right and buying clothes off the internet has been a bit risky in that way but I can't fault those at Choies.com. 

Here are my pick of the best party dresses, accessories and coats to wear on top... cause us ladies cant ruin our look by having a bright red nose now can we. No, we can't. 

1. Fine Belt Mesh Dress - £28.97
Not gonna lie but if you havent seen a blogger wearing or talking about this dress already then I will be very surprised. But thats not a bad thing. One of my friends bought this dress, they said its quite short, however, unless you're extremely tall I wouldnt worry, besides, you can always wear black shorts underneath, like these Black Elasticated High Waist Shorts here for £13.22. It's modern, its fresh, its like you have cut out geometric shapes from the straps. It's great. Look on the website for more pictures of women from around the globe wearing the hell out of it. 
2. Bodycorn Pencil Dress Contrast Lace Panel - £37.79
I saw someone wearing this on TV the other day, I dont know which show, I dont know what time, I just know they looked bloody awesome and immediately I thought, this dress is going in the post for choies.com. Love it. Looked great... whoever you were! Sorry.

3. Cute Swing Dress With Organza Yoke - £31.49

It's so cute. It's like a babydoll dress but at the same time I'm thinking it's like what one of the mermaids are wearing at the start of the Little Mermaid when they're all getting ready to do the show to showcase Ariel and she's not there. But they all look fabulous and they have diamonds in their hair and they're singing. I'm having a love affair with Disney and this dress right now. Perfect Christmas dress, engagement dress, whatever. Beautiful dress. 

4. Black Tassel Earrings - £12.60

They're classy, they're in right now. Anna Wintour would be proud of you. Go. Be gone. You're welcome. 

5. Black Felt Fedora (Women or Men) - £15.87

If you don't have a Fedora already I suggest you go buy one. I was walking to work today and I saw a girl wearing MITTENS. If you're waiting for the winter weather, wait no more because we're already here. No more time waiting, go buy that hat you want. I like this one. 

6. Metalic Pony Across Body Bag With Removable Front Clutch Bag - £30.86

Did I mention we are currently entering a phase wear everything hologram is amazing. Be prepared for this. This one is a clutch in the shape of a pony. Cute. Wear it and make everyone you know jealous by leaving them guessing how you're some sort of fashion time traveler who knows the trends before they officially hit Topshop... mysterious. You're winning. 

I went out at the weekend and I don't normally do this but it was bloody cold, so I put on this old anorak style shiny black jacket with my playsuit.. did not match... this did not go unnoticed as well. Bad times. Here are some snazzy jackets for day and night. Which one is your favourite?
7. Houndstooth Jacket Spell Black Shoulders - £48.88
You terribly english british person you. Sherlock Holmes eat your heart out this look is in. Classy, sophisticated, understated. Great. 
8.Splicing Fur Sleeves Short Black Coat- £44.09
We all love a party jacket. Its fun, it goes with everything. It's guaranteed cheaper than most places. Treat Yourself.
9.Studded PU Biker Jacket - £61.10
Just like a copy of the studded jacket a couple of years back from Religion but for a fraction of the price. Beaut, and its guaranteed to give you that edge adding it with a girly dress like the babydoll style one shown above.

Well, thats it for today, I am exhausted, excited... looking forward to payday (4 days argh). I will no doubt be buying that babydoll dress, ill keep you posted with a haul if I do.
Till next time,

2. Matiko Spotted Crush Loafer - £105.86
Cruella De Ville eat your heart out, I am loving these dalmation print loafers, for work? for play? both I hope. They would add that edge to a suit or just team with black skinny jeans for a shopping trip. They do remind me of something Noel Fielding would wear and ladies, that is not a bad thing at all.
3. Laser Beam Earrings - £11.21
How much? Not much at all I would say. Not for a corking pair like that. Glam. And they're called Laser Beams, isnt that fun? Totally perfect for a night out with the ladies and your hair up in a quiff.

Oh my days. If I could tell you how long I've been looking for one of these hats. And this one if perfect. Binky Felstead wears hers all the time and I prmised myself last season I would buy one before the new season starts... well it's about time. I know they have them all over, even seen one in Topshop but I've never been bowled over by the price, this one however is perfect. Team with this seasons winter coat and a tartan scarf and you're ready for a autumn stroll in the park. Darling.

5. Candy Girl Pendant - £29.89
I love these block crystal necklaces right now. This one is just so cute, I'm thinking teaming it with a white shirt and suit trousers, it just looks so elegant. Very understated and small that just adds the right spark to any outfit. Avoid wearing too many bright colours, you don't want this little gem to get lost in all the different colours and details of what you're wearing. You don't want too much going on.
6. Moon Rocker Ring - £11.21
Anyone who follows my Fashiolista right now will know that I have a love affair with crystals, moonstones and quartz necklaces. I am enchanted. Here is a super cute, and super savvy price of a great moonstone ring. It even matches the iPhone cover. Are we loving? We are loving.
7. Studded Backpack - £36.12
I know what you're thinking, it looks like a handbag. I assure you this IS a backpack. It has straps on the other side you can see when you click the link above. This black faux leather bag really caught my eye because of the gold plate at the bottom that is studded. I have wanted a bag like this for yonks. It just looks so chic. As long as it fits my lunchbox in for work I am in. Cult favourite for a night out or in the office. Love. 

So there you have it, I am completely in love with these great accessories from Nastygal, let me know what you think, are you loving too? What's your favourite one?

Till next time,

JEFFREY CAMPBELL @ TKMAXX

Funny thing happened. I was reading someones blog and they listed their new Jeffrey Campbells from TKMAXX. What the? TKMaaaa?

I had to see this with my own eyes? Surely this cannot be true? 

So off I ran to the TKMAXX at the top of Brigatte in Leeds and low and behold were a few pairs of lovely boots that I hunted off the shelves... at 3pm... on a SATURDAY. What was I thinking? It's mum-land at that time and it was not easy.

Here's what I found... and yes, they are heavily discounted. I urge all Jeffrey Campbell fans to visit their nearest TKMAXX as all stores will be holding these shoes for the foreseeable future. LUCKY US. Now if only I could walk in them without having bambi legs...

Luckily the ones at the top of this picture are flat so I may consider investing... however, how fun is that tropical hawaiian print? SASSY.
