Hey!  It’s been a long time since I did a FOTD, mainly because I have been fairly busy and my make up has been pretty toned down for work etc.  However, today was lovely and sunny so I threw on some lipstick (not literally, that would have ended badly) and put my hair up into a looks-effortless-but-really-wasn’t high ponytail.  This lipstick is my new favourite, I bought it a while ago but it got put away and forgotten about for a couple of months.  It’s a lovely peachy orange that indulges my current coral obsession perfectly, and makes me feel extra summery!  Together with the slightly more exaggerated eye liner flick than usual, I think that this look has a bit of a 60s feel to it, which is fine by me since that is always what I take inspiration from when doing my eye make up!  I can see this being my go-to look over the summer if we get more of this nice weather, maybe mixing it up a bit by having a high bun in my hair if I ever find my hair donut.  How did I lose a hair donut?  They’re big brown things that cannot be mistaken for anything else really…
 
What looks are you loving this summer? xx

OOTD: California Dreaming




Dress:Topshop
Coat:Primark
Rings:New Look sale & Primark




I had to have this 60s style shift dress when I saw it in Topshop last year!  The peter pan collar is simple and  gives it a girly feel.  I love vintage styles and the 60s era is one of my favourites because the shapes are flattering and feminine.  I am definitely going to try and experiment with beehive type looks for my hair, sometimes I have one but because my hair is pretty long it doesn't hold that well and after a couple of hours it goes back to looking normal again!  The coat is one I picked up in Primark a couple of years ago now, and I only really wear it when I have these type of outfits on that are the same length and style, because I think it works best with them, rather than having something longer underneath it.  I love costume jewellery and I stuck with these two rings today as I don't think a necklace would work with the dress.  Hope everyone is having a great Tuesday! xx
