FOTD and OOTD: Motley Crue - Urban Outfitters, Topshop, Primark with Makeup Geek Vegas Lights Pigment

Top: Urban Outfitters, Jeans: Topshop, Cardigan: Primark, Boots: Primark, Necklace: Lyla Loves, Bag: Primark, Beanie Boohoo, Teddy coat: Topshop

Hey everyone!

Here is a wintery sort of OOTD featuring this Motley Crue tee shirt which I bought in the Urban Outfitters black Friday sale and have become obsessed with. This top is also featured in the Grunge date night outfits video on my Youtube channel so feel free to check it out.

I have to talk about this pigment though, lord above. Makeup Geek Vegas lights was beamed down by celestial alien gods. Yes its hella messy because it has no sifter but it is the perfect glittery copper shade that looks stunning on blue or green or any eyes to be honest. This is one of my favourite pigments at the moment so, buy it.

I layered this fluffy, speckled cardigan over it which is from Primark. This cardigan is amazing because not only is it super soft, it also has huge pockets which provide a cosy little pouch for my iphone. I think I have a problem with having to hold my phone constantly or at least being able to see it, does anyone else find it comforting to have that smooth screen within reach at all times of the day?

Primark also turned out the grey croc shoulder bag and these knee high boots which were reduced to £15 and provide the perfect amount of height for day time. I originally wanted a pair of over the knee boots but I felt I looked too much like this:

Whatever happened to Bratz dolls anyway? Did barbie sue them? Why did they not have a nose? So many important questions...

OOTD: The Birds Part II - Topshop, H&M, Aliexpress

Top: Aliexpress, Rings, H&M, Necklaces: H&M and Aliexpress, Jacket: Topshop, Jeans: Topshop, Boots: Aliexpress

Here's a quick OOTD featuring some things I got for Christmas, one of which is this unusual jumper from the wholesale website Aliexpress. It was only £10 but it's very unusual so I really like this piece! 

I always wear a lot of jewellery and my new favourite combination is the coin necklace, also from Aliexpress, stacked with this eagle necklace from H&M - another Christmas gift from my mum.

My best friend and I literally have no willpower and opened our presents on the 14th of December, her presents are always amazing and I was a shrieking mess throughout the ordeal. We also bought each other tattoos as an even earlier Christmas present which was very exciting. 

More information on my piercings and tattoos was requested so here is a link to a Youtube video with Charlotte explaining all the gory details!

Her mum bought me a Topshop gift card which I used to buy this leather jacket because I had been obsessing over it for weeks, part of my thing for white clothing at the moment. My lips is a rather questionable grey colour which I am undecided about, courtesy of Lime Crime Chinchilla.

Is it just me or does it feel like the Christmas and New Year excitement has died very suddenly? Now I'm back in college and there's talk of exam revision which I am so not emotionally prepared for. I just want to put on my fleeced, cuffed pyjamas and get back in bed!

P.S apologies for the photo sizing, the app I usually use to edit is glitching out...

OOTD: Holier - Perforated tee shirt, Topshop collar necklace, Leather pants

So Christmas was a five days ago now, it seems to have been over in a flash and I'm desperate to drag out the rest of this holiday as much as possible! 

This tee shirt is despised by my Mum who thinks it's hideous, which it sort of is but I have a tendency to gravitate towards ugly or abnormal pieces. Anyway, I found it in Matalan and decided to buy it because I rarely wear any colour. The floral design contrasts the sporty feel of the perforated material which is cool and I like how it has a dipped hem at the back which will be perfect with shorts in Summer, I know it's way off yet!

I am wearing it with a simple collar necklace from Topshop and my trusted coated jeans, also from Topshop... as are my boots, hey at least there was one non-Topshop item in this outfit!

My eyeshadow is Mac Cranberry blended out with Peaches blush also by Mac, I've been really into warm toned shadows lately and so I was super happy to get some new pans for Christmas to fill my palette. I will be uploading some makeup/beauty related posts soon so stay tuned.

Hope you all had an amazing Christmas xx
