STYLE // WINTER JUMPER










SHOP THE LOOK
Jumper - Zara - similar here // Jeans - Topshop // Bag - Missguided // Boots - Zara - similar here


I am just completely in love with this outfit at the moment and I wear it a lot of the time! I sometimes switch things up a bit and change the black jeans to a denim pair but apart from that, all the same. 
This Zara Jumper is a staple in my wardrobe this winter and the quality is incredible - so soft and so thick and warm and for £15.99 in the Zara sale, I couldn't resist! The Zara boots are also one of my favourites at the moment and one thing I love about them is that you can wear them for any occasion - whether its for a casual day out or going out in the evening with your friends. They would look lovely with a midi skirt which I'm planning on wearing together for a night out in March. 

Now I have a different/disappointing view on the jeans. I have always been a Topshop jean girl and I have 4 pairs which are the Jamie style jeans. I decided to try the Leigh jean to see how they differentiated from the Jamie's. The fit is great, just the same as the Jamie's. However, the material is just far too thin or my liking and you can tell the material's quite frail. For £40, there's definitely not worth the money so I would opt for the Jamie's or Joni's as they are of a much thicker material and brilliant quality which will give you a pair of jeans which will last you a lifetime.

BEAUTY // MINI MAKE UP HAUL





Hi guys! I recently had browse on the Superdrug website and decided to purchase a couple of new make-up items. Now, I'm not one who is crazy about make-up and I hardly ever do a full face of it. But my all time favourite make-up products that I wear almost everyday have to be concealer and eyeliner. I have always used the Collection Lasting Perfector Concealer and never really tried any other concealer so I thought it was about time to try out some new products. * I am not a beauty expert - All of these products I have only used 1-2 times so this is my personal, first opinion on these products*

Maybelline NY Dream Touch Concealer - This concealer really does brighten up the under eyes and I would say acts more like an undereye highlighter rather than a concealer. It does eliminate the dark circles and gives the face a nice lift. 

Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer - I do love this product so far! It doesn't give as much coverage as the lasting perfection concealer which is in a way good as it is not too heavy. It is good as an underage concealer as well as to cover blemishes. It does cover blemishes well but not as good as the lasting perfection. 

Maybelline Eye Studio Master Precise Liner in Black - One of the best eyeliners I have ever used. I'm really not great at eyeliner and never get a precise line. But as the name suggests, this eyeliner really does create a perfect line. The 'felt tip' is quite thin which makes it easy to appeal the liner and gives the ability to create the perfect winged line also. It does take a while to take off your eyes at the end of the day which is good as it has good lasting power, but a pain at the end of the day when all you want to do is quickly take your make-up off and relax and sleep!
