OOTD: All White Everythang

'







Crop top: H&M
Skirt: Oh My Love @ Topshop
Shoes: River Island
Necklace: Topshop
Earrings: Primark

Hi all,

Last Saturday I celebrated my friend's birthday with some of the original squad from my secondary school (how time flies!) I had been wanting to pull off an all-white outfit for a while, and decided a night out was the perfect occasion to do so.

I really do like the long-sleeve crop top with a midi skirt like this; it looks so sophisticated and elegant. I do think I would have preferred a really low-cut crop top to give it more of a Kim K vibe, but I was happy with this one as I can wear it with both a casual and a more dressy outfit. Its also slightly ribbed; a bit more interesting that just a plain white top, especially as my jewellery and make-up was kept to a minimum.

Speaking of make-up, I went for a gold and brown slight smokey-eye with dark liner and dewy, flawless skin as well as my trusty MAC Twig lipstick. Sleek, straight hair I thought went really well with this look and the outfit. Super elegant, super classy.

Products I'm Loving!



Hello guys,


Just wanted to update you on some products that I haven't had for very long but that have caught my attention for all the right reasons!


1. Revlon Nearly Naked Foundation
My cousin left this foundation at my house a few months ago (sorry, Rebekah, if you're reading!) and I decided to try it. It's pretty awesome, I have to say. I'm not a huge fan of super heavy coverage foundations as I get very paranoid about looking too cakey, so this was a great alternative as, of course, it is supposed to be like skin. You can also build it up. You only need a very small amount to begin with (it's quite annoying because it doesn't have a pump!) I use the lightest shade, which is Ivory, and it works very well, if not the tiniest bit yellowy. Love the finish and it has definitely encouraged me to try more of Revlon's foundations, such as Photoready and Colorstay.



2. Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Perversion
Blimey. This eyeliner is incredible. It's the blackest of blacks, very creamy and super long wearing. Although Urban Decay is quite pricey, if you want an eyeliner that actually does the job then I think it's worth spending a little bit more, if you're a big eyeliner fan. I know I certainly am, and this has made me even more excited about wearing smoldering eyeliner in the future.


3. Kiehl's Olive Fruit Oil Nourishing Conditioner


Having dyed my hair over many years, my already fine locks are not exactly in the world's best condition. This conditioner with olive oil and avocado oils attracted me because of it being jam-packed with natural ingredients, and it nourishes hair that is dry and damaged. I found it was extremely light and had quite a mild, pleasant smell, easy to wash out. It made me hair lovely and shiny as well as very soft once it was dry. Great for hair that has been subject to excessive heat styling also.





4. MAC Lipstick in Twig
Thanks to Kylie Jenner, everybody and their Mum knows about this lipstick, and I finally jumped onto the bandwagon because I wanted to see what all the hype was about. Gah, this lipstick is gorgeous! I didn't know if it would suit my skin colour but it absolutely did and my lips look amazing with this and a little bit of lipliner. Very long-wearing...you know, I can't really rave enough about MAC lipsticks. Go and get some. Now.
