If you’re yet to have learned about the #BeautiesOnFire then please read my post “Introducing the Beauties On Fire!” additionally, catch up on the previous weeks classic beauty theme “#BeautiesOnFire - As heavenly as Hepburn?” Now you’ve done that, myself and the girls are back for week two, today is all about ‘Summer Style’.



Being both a fashion and beauty blogger I decided that today I would create a summer look for both! This weeks theme excited me so much because it gave me the perfect excuse to go a little more bold with my eye make-up than I usually would. As I were heading out for the evening with friends this is a little more tailored for night life! I really were so pumped to be showcasing my more colourful look!


I enjoyed creating this very much indeed, originally I were aiming to use purple and blue colours for my eyes, but somewhere in my excitement I went all out with my splash of colour. This look gave me the perfect opportunity to use my sunset palette and it’s now my current ultimate obsession! The pigmentation is unreal!


This were such a cool and light outfit to wear, which is exactly what were required for the current hot temperatures and muggy atmosphere of which us Yorkshire folk have been expiring in. I often forget that I own my multi coloured block heels and I’m really in need of not doing so and remembering to put them to some serious use, it’s much preferable to wear these in the warm weather eradicating the need to stress over the potential of taking flying lessons in stilettos! Of course, no outfit is complete without a few accessories!


So there you have my ideal night time look for summer! Which products, accessories and clothing pieces did you like the best? I’d love to know what your favourite looks are.

Be sure to head back next week for Disney Princesses!

I’m sure we’ve all at least heard of Boohoo by now, if not, are you even on this planet? The widespread popularity of this particular online clothing retailer is astonishing and with only a couple of days in which to find an exceptional yet not too pricey outfit I figured it were finally the time to climb onto the Boohoo Bandwagon!


I’m one of those people of whom is incredibly cautious when shopping online and especially when using somewhere new, usually finding myself a little jumbled due to returns policies, size guides and the other usual suspects! Will the item fit? Is it a reputable and safe retailer? How difficult or costly will returns be in the event that my order is nothing alike that of which is portrayed on the site? I’m able to spend an infinite amount of time over analysing the answers to these questions and many more, before finally missing out on fantastic offers and sales or simply not having the audacity to take the risk and order that dream dress from somewhere I’ve yet to buy from. After a little contemplation, lack of time and the urgency to acquire a new outfit for my friends birthday celebrations, I had no other option but  to finally take the plunge and oh, how I’m delighted that I did. So, just what exactly are my reasons for my new found obsession?




I stumbled upon the above pieces in the sale section and were initially dubious about them based on the fact I would be unable to wear a bra with them. I took the risk regardless and I’m thoroughly ecstatic for having done so. Both outfits exceeded my expectations rather than being compromised. It turns out that overall I’m elated with the company and I will definitely be buying from Boohoo again, I couldn’t recommend them enough! I would like to add that I made the choice of buying these and I have in no way been pressured or influenced into giving a positive review, all views in this post and throughout the rest of my blog are and will always be my own, I am in no way affiliated with the company.


Have you had the pleasure of experiencing Boohoo yet? I’d love to hear all about your own experiences. Do you have any other recommendations for me?

Hello beauties! Today marks the official start of the #BeautiesOnFire collaboration, if you’re unsure as to what exactly this is then don’t hesitate to read yesterday’s post “Introducing the Beauties On Fire!”, to head straight into the fun and games of week one however, then continue reading!



You may be able to detect a little excitement contained within my writing today and you would be definitely observing this successfully, myself and the other ladies are all absolutely ecstatic to be finally starting this collaboration officially and what a fantastic way to start with our first weeks theme being none other than... Classic beauty! When I think of classic beauty my mind is filled with images of winged liner, flawless but natural skin and of course, the timeless red lip! If you’re a regular reader then you may have previously noted that I’m more than in favour of a red lip, therefore the classic beauty theme has left me almost bouncing from the walls in excessive euphoria!



Elisabeth shared a fun quiz with us ladies of which tells us which ‘classic beauty’ we are, if you’d like to do this yourself then click here! I got the result of Audrey Hepburn which I found to be quite coincidental as I had already planned to base today’s make-up look on her, with a slight cat eye and red lip. I used a very minimal amount of bronzer for my contour as I wanted quite a bare and very natural look, although with the recent sun burn on my face that were going to already present a slight challenge. Below you will find pictures of the completed look and a list of the products I used.





I hope you enjoyed my first #BeautiesOnFire post, be sure to check back next week for ‘Summer Style’ and don’t forget to check out everyone else’s posts by clicking the logo above! What’s your ideal classic beauty look?

It’s evidently been a little while now since my last post and for those of whom follow me on Twitter and Facebook, the reason for this will be known , although due to not posting anything on here about it I wanted to update you on this today.

There’s no easy way of saying this and I hate having to write it, but a dear friend of mine passed away. Tom were genuinely one of the nicest people I’ve met and to have had the pleasure of befriending, he were intelligent, funny, caring and the most easy going of people. He were completely carefree and without a doubt the life and soul of any party. Being a healthy guy and at the young age of 26 years, it’s safe to say that this terrible news came as a huge shock to all of those which knew him. These past few weeks have been awful and it’s something that I still can’t get my head around, understandably I couldn’t handle blogging, finding that any motivation to do so or the inspiration of which to help me write my posts, had simply vanished.


Any loss gets you thinking about things and due to Tom being always such a happy individual together with the shock of the whole situation I of course found my mind to be in overdrive. Approximately a week and half before his death he’d invited me to hang out however it were late at night and I needed to be up incredibly early for work the next day therefore I of course turned down the invite, even though he had then asked to just have the one drink. This is something I’ve been beating myself up over since his death, despite there being no way I could have predicted this. It’s reminded me of the fact that all too often we get caught up in routine and duty whilst forgetting to truly live life. How many opportunities to do things and to enjoy time with loved ones would we make the most out of if not for the fact of mundane prioritising? This reminded me also of the need for many of us to stop putting other’s before ourselves so often, to stop missing out on things or failing to try new things based on what somebody else will think. Your life is yours and only yours, if you want something then you have to go for it, take chances and get out of your comfort zone because all too soon it could all be over. Do you want to reach the end only to regret not giving somebody a second chance, or wondering how different it could have all been had you pushed yourself toward the career of your dreams, to have travelled the world?  Live life to the full and unapologetically, be yourself and stay true to you. Life is often what you make it. Create so many amazing memories, as many as is possible and always remember to ensure that your loved ones know what they mean to you. Carpe Diem!


I wish to thank you for your understanding of my absence and for sticking with me. I’ll get fully back into the swing of things as soon as possible regarding any comments made or e-mails sent to myself during my time away. Have a stunning day and a life worth being jealous of yourself for!

With Love,
