Awesome Idea #2

Hello People!

How has your week been so far?? I hope it's
all going well for you! 

I just thought I'd show you this cool 
iPhone case that I found, since most
of the population own iPhones.

Here it is, the Feed Me iPhone Case:

Earphones = Noodles!

Have an awesome evening - maybe you're
having noodles???

New and Upcoming Artists #FourFavourites

                                               
NEW UPCOMING ARTISTS:


These are my top artist discoveries of the year (so far), 
take a look:

Banks
This singer has a soft, R&B inspired voice, 
if you enjoy Lorde and Lana Del Ray, then this 
is definitely one for you. As well as having a 
stunning voice, she has also featured on many 
magazine front pages for her dark, mystical 
beauty. This is her new song "Waiting Game".




Amber Run
This band are relatively new and unheard 
of, I found them a few months back with their 
song "Noah". Their music is filled with harmonies, 
soaring choruses and preppy beats. For the lovers
of Mumford & Sons,I guarantee you'll love them! 
This is their new single "Heaven".



Warpaint
Warpaint are an emerging band that are
lined up to play all the big festivals this
year (including Coachella!). This all girl
Indie Rock band are releasing their self-titled 
second album this year. So, here is their latest 
single "Love is to Die".



Luke Sital-Singh
He is an absolute star; Luke Sital-Singh 
has been compared to the likes of Ben Howard
and Jeff Buckley. His songs are filled with
slow melodies, beautiful lyrics and delicate 
notes. He is one to watch in the new year! 



Please take a look at all these amazing artists, 
you might find one you like? 

Have a lovely weekend!

Until the next post,

Minimalism

 Morning Everyone,

I know I haven't posted in eons but this is going to be a fresh start!
This Autumn, I'm looking at Minimalism; making basic and bright pieces of 
clothing into something spectacular! 

Here is a collection of my favourite Autumn items:

A gorgeous statement  Eagle necklace -  €5.00 

Burgundy Brown Workman Sole Boots - £100 Office

Red Heavy Knit Jumper - €8.00 Sale Zara 


My Autumn Makeup Selection 

For a trendy little Autumn outfit: try a heavy knit jumper + denim shorts + black over the knee socks 
+ a black beanie = Basic Beautiful!

Autumn is one of my favourite fashion seasons, it's full of splashes of colour, elegant dresses, glamorous jackets and coats and incredibly daring makeup! Speaking of which, this Autumn's biggest trend is going to be pencilled eyebrows and plum lipstick.

Next Week, I'll be telling you all about the new Tartan Trend! 

Love,

Here comes the sun.....



Well, well, well what do we have here?

It seems that the Sun has finally arrived!!!
Today, my post is all about the Perks of Summer,
 including top Reads, Styles and Tunes. 

To Start, try The Perks Of Being A Wallflower for a 
beautiful story that will change you forever.
 Or how about To Kill A Mocking bird for a classic 
story about truth?

This summer, I will most definitely be listening to Icona Pops's "I love it"! It's one of my favourite songs this year!
 I have also discovered Tom Odell, an amazing piano 
 playing artist. (I have added my favourite 
song of his; "Another Love". Enjoy!)

I'm trying to keep my summer style (as well as my make - up) fresh and breezy, adding a slight touch of toughness. Perhaps, a flowing white summer dress with a black leather jacket and chunky metallic eagle necklace. I like to call this style Preppy Grunge.

I wish you an amazing Summer!

Music to my ears.....

Hia Peeps,

As you may have noticed, one of my previous posts had a 
slightly different layout ot all the other ones - this 
means that I've posted from my mobile (for some reason 
it doesn't let you edit font, etc?!) 

Moving on, I have started to create Songlists; once a week I'll scan a list of 5 or 6 songs to a post - these songs will
 be my pick of the week!Let me know if you 
find something new?!

Here are two: 


Week 1 ^



This Week ^

Hope you're all wonderful!

Summer is here!

Hi Peeps, 

Wow, some serious blog neglect has gone down 
but I promise to make it 
up to you! 

So much has happened to me since my last post, I've spoken
 to a blogging  legend; Ophelia Horton,  been to New York AND had a  rather big shopping spree. I've been on 
a bit of a lucky streak at the moment 
but it's due to run out 
anytime soon! 

My latest obsession is with White. Anything white will put a smile on my face, although people say it's not a very 
flattering colour I think you'd be surprised! 
One of my latest purchases was a white lace dress 
from Forever 21 - which is absolutely fantastic! 
I would recommend Forever 21 to anyone who is
looking for quality clothing at a purse - nursing price. 
So go on - dare yourself! 

Here are some photos taken by Desire Ageymang: 





Summer is the perfect time for fashion, the days look fabulous and so should you! So why not try something new? A bright red maxi skirt or a pretty little peplum top?! 
You'd be surprised at what you find! 

On to Cosmetics.....
I recently bought some new cosmetics which are perfect for a quick refresh in the summer heat, try Batiste for a quick hair wash and Barry M nail varnish in Lemon
 Ice Cream to awaken any outfit! 

Well, I hope you get some inspiration! 
We'll speak soon!

The World of Accessories!

Afternoon,

Where to begin in the wonderful world of accessories! 
There's shoes, bags, scarves, hats, jewellery and don't forget make-up! 

I absolutely adore Nail Varnish! It comes in so many wondrous
colours and designs! My favourite brand would have 
to be Barry M, it is a must-have for any 
fashion follower! 

According to The Sunday Times Magazine, this season 
is all matchy-matchy, so none of those two tone rainbow 
colours, it's all about finding the perfect nail 
partner for your outfit! 

Here are my favourite Barry M colours: 


1. Silver Multi glitter
2. Black Crackle Effect 
3. Blue Moon

I recently bought this incredible (not to mention expensive!) pot of Nail Varnish from American Apparel:


Neptune Glow in the Dark Nail Varnish

I'll be back with some more accessories soon!
