Originally we ventured to the Urban Lights one evening after I tried my first Korean BBQ (which is amazing I might add), it was full of people and the atmosphere was electric.. sorry I just had to. I'd seen it in people's vlogs on YouTube and I'd always wanted to check it out for myself! 

Got this snap of me there that night, but I knew I wanted to return during the day to get an outfit shot. 

Luckily when we went there was no one there in the day! I thought this classic outfit would be set off well against the starkness of the lights. I love the mix of chic style from the dress and my hair up paired with the casual yet clean look of the trainers. Since I got those Nikes I wear them SO MUCH! At first I wasn't sure what they'd go with, but they are so easy to style!

Are you into styling up trainers this season?

Thailand Holiday

 Dress / Asos

Body Chain c/o / Rock'N'Rose

Shoes / New Look

Humming Bird Ring c/o Jana Reinhardt

Other Rings / The Bohemian Collective

Nail Varnish / Essie "Ballet Slippers"

Welcome to the beautiful backdrop of Thailand! This is in my friend's back garden, by the pond we fished in that day! And I actually caught a fish! Now onto the outfit.

If you follow my youtube or instagram you might recognise this dress! It's a maxi dress by Cheap Monday I purchased over the summer from Asos. May look slightly different now though as I cut off the straps which sat across the deep arm holes, I found those a tad pointless. This dress is seriously the most perfect maxi dress! It's so simplistic, light and adds subtle reveals with the splits along both sides.

Before I would usually belt it to add some shape, but then felt I couldn't wear a necklace as it would look too fussy. I resolved this though with wearing a body chain, this added simple jewellery and cinches you in to add some shape, kills two birds with one stone!

Rings are all beautiful stirling silver, all so dainty and beautifully classic.

The humming bird ring is a recent addition to my ring collection, and I'm so in love with it! I highly recommend to check out their jewellery and if you see anything you fancy use code "blogger20' for £20 off a full priced item <3

I love wearing my Bohemian Collective rings, the turquoise one is certainly one of my all time favourites, and looks so beautiful with sun kissed skin!

A big thank you to Jacqueline for taking these pictures for me, so nice to have someone take my outfit pictures for me for once! Usually it's just little old me and a tripod and a remote ^_^

Halloween Blood Drip Nails Tutorial

Getting into the old Halloween spirit with a Blood Drip Nails tutorial! This is super easy and quick to do! A Tip, I found it easier to actually use the other end of the toothpick ^_^

Did you see my halloween outfit I did for Missguided? I customised one of their dresses for my very own DIY halloween look! I'm going to wear this dress this weekend, have less scary makeup and wear my white out coloured contact lenses :D

 

What are you going as for Halloween?

Halloween with Missguided, vote for me!

Dress / c/o Missguided

Shoes / Loveclothing

Necklace / Topshop

Rings / c/o Shop Dixi

So Missguided contacted me asking if I would be up for doing a DIY halloween outfit using items from their sweet deal range. I jumped at the chance! I love halloween so much and was up for making something myself. I had so much fun doing this too! My neighbours must think I'm crazy!

I chose a maxi dress with the intention of cutting it up for some subtle revealing details. I've come a long way from my halloween outfits as a child. I used to be given a bin bag and told it was a witches costume ^_^ This dress is perfect for a gothic look and lets you add dramatic makeup and accessories without being too much. It's also only £7.50!

Go check out the other 4 bloggers looks, and if you like mine, make sure you vote for me by liking this picture on their Facebook page, you will also then have the chance of winning a halloween goodie bag! <3

Check out the super talented Emily who did my makeup too here.

My First Vlog!

I'm so happy with this vlog, my first ever attempt! I spent far too much time editing it, and once I'd put it together, I spent a further hour tweaking it and cutting it down. I'm a perfectionist and I really enjoy editing :)

This vlog follows me over 8 days (I didn't film one day) and shows packages I've received, my weekend with Jack down the beach and at his house, a sneak peak of my next youtube video, showing my lighting set up for filming, planning of future blog posts, footage from a youtube event I attended in London, shopping around Norwich, and Father's day with my family <3 

I enjoyed filming this and hope to do more in the future. I love watching vlogs, seeing what people get up to and seeing more of their personality, so I thought I would share the same with you guys :)
