A Catch Up...

Hello everyone,
Firstly I'd like to apologise for not posting in so long, my life has been pretty up in the air for these past few months. In such a short amount of time I've changed jobs, moved house and its been stressful! Although I can say that I feel so settled now, and I really want to start writing more posts.

I mentioned that I recently changed jobs, I decided to go back to Newlook. I think I finally realised that insurance wasn't the route I wanted to go down. Then, when Newlook offered me the position of cosmetic specialist I knew it was the right thing to do.

So I want to take this blog into a slightly new direction, I'd like to keep the kind of posts I've been doing but I want to start going into more depth with fashion, beauty and lifestyle. After all, if I really want this page to take off, I need to be committed to it, maybe even start a YouTube channel. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this!

So hopefully (if things go to plan) you'll be hearing a lot more from me in the near future!

NEW YORK FASHION WEEK

Hello! I recently realised that I haven't posted for so long, and although I have no clue if anyone reads what I write I want to stick at this. Last time I posted I was moving jobs to an insurance company. recently I have decided to leave the company head back to New Look, being away from the business made me realise that although I needed extra hours, I would rather take an hours and pay cut to be happy doing a job I love. I have new responsibilities and opportunities to progress.

 

Anyway,  September marks the beginning of what I like to call Fashion Month, where the industry embarks upon discovering the trends to covet for the next season. Kicking off proceedings, New York paved the way for London and gave us a peak at what we can expect come Spring. From iconic supermodel moments to the classic trends to follow, here's a roundup of all things New York Fashion Week...

FRIENDS

So since I got my new job, I've realised who my real friends are, and I've never been happier with the people I am surrounding myself with, each of them are so amazing in their own way. Here's some snaps of us all! 

LAST DAY

OOTD

So last Saturday, was my last ever shift at newlook! I can't belive my time there has come to an end I'm so sad about it. But hopefully it's the start if a new chaper in my life. My last day was so sad, a lot of tears and laughs! I got the best home made card from the girls. I love them all so much. 

It was so hot on Saturday! So I went for a beachy look.

A QUICK UPDATE & OOTD

Hey there everyone! So a pretty boring post today, basicly explaining why I haven't been able to post as much recently. In the last few weeks I've got a new job in the insurance indistry! Which is really exciting and new, but I'm so sad to be leaving my newlook family. I'm still going to be writing fashion related posts. But just for the next week or so whilst I get used to my new schedule I probably won't be writing as much. But I am thinking of starting a YouTube channel! What do you think?

OFF TO THE RACES

With social events such as Ascot Races approaching fast, it’s time to think outfit choices. To ensure you stand out from the crowd with the perfect race day outfit, look to Zoe Hardman with her pretty pastel midi cut to the knee with crisp white to contrast for a look that both conservative and stylish. With strict rules about length, a pencil fit in the style of Laura Haddock is ideal - think florals for a timeless high summer feel. Daring to be different, there’s a lot to be said for Lupita N’Yongo’s monochrome look – tipped for the top with a must-have fedora.

Fearne Cotton

 

Known for her often quirky and eclectic style, it’s always nice to catch Fearne Cotton on a day off so we can catch a glimpse at her take on dressed down casuals. Ideal for summer, Fearne finds the perfect balance between feminine and masculine, combining pastel elements with tough, worn denim. Creating the perfect juxtaposition, delicate embellishment along the neckline in blush tones goes up against the vintage inspired rips that adorn her boyfriend jeans. To complete the casual free, candy pop trainers bring a relaxed sports touch that’s ideal for daytime. For an evening/dress up feel, simply switch to metallic ankle strap heels to elevate.
