Neon aztec

  

Blazer: New Look

Top: Wallis

Jeans: New Look

Shoes: Office

Necklace: Miss Selfridge

Say hello to the last summery outfit of the year - it's time to get out the burgundy's and the grey's and put all the neons away till next year. (Although the occasional bright nail and lip may still occur). It's officially getting cold and dark, and winter is well on it's way which is fine by me. I adore Autumn but I just haven't been able to pull out the warm coats and scarves yet which ruins it a little for me. Hopefully November will restore my love for Autumn - fires and chunky knits are much awaited!

I nabbed this blazer a month or so ago in the New Look sale at a stupidly cheap price. I know this print/colourway has been everywhere this summer but I just didn't really get into it at first. However, we all know I love a blazer and wear them at least 4 times a week so I couldn't really pass this by could I? 

I have a pretty chilled dress code at work so jeans and blazers are my go to outfit if I happen to snooze my alarm one too many times, which may happen more often than it should. Time to hunt down some more Autumny blazers now perhaps?

Trousers: River Island

Shoes: Wallis

Watch: Fossil

Necklace: Newlook

 

Oh hey, I am making the most of the nice weather so you'll have to excuse the continuous OOTD posts. I picked up these trousers about a month ago and I am obsessed with them. Unfortunately they're hand wash only and i'm super lazy so they've been hanging out in the corner of my room for about a week. I went into town with Jake yesterday afternoon and whilst he got his haircut he left me unattended and I may have sneaked off to Newlook and picked up a few things, on top of the massive order I placed on Thursday. HEHE. Anywho last night I went to dinner with my mumma and had to wear one of my new pieces. Cue my gorgeous pink and blue necklace that I already adore and know I will wear all the time. I know I'm a little overdressed for dinner but after slobbing around for the last few weekends I just really wanted to wear some nice clothes and put on a nicer face ha!

These boots are made for strutting (walking)

Dress: Wallis

Blazer: Matalan

Boots: Mascotte

Belt: River Island

Bracelet: Wallis

Ring: New Look

Necklace: Miss Selfridge

I wanted to show you guys how I've been wearing my gorgeous new boots from Mascotte. I am completely smitten with them, they are a gorgeous reddy brown and the comfiest boots I have ever worn. With a fur lining, I can guarantee they will be well worn during the winter months.

For this casual pub lunch look I have teamed them with a plain black jersey dress and a jacquard blazer. Gold jewellery and a natural make up look meant that the boots do all the talking. With a slight heel, they would easily dress up a casual jeans and tee combo, but are still perfect for everyday wear. They may be my first pair of shoes from Mascotte but I can guarantee they won't be my last. Added bonus... They do gorgeous bags too.

OOTD clash of the seasons

Hey lovelies.

So the sun is finally making an appearance, but still not warm enough to wave goodbye to tights just yet. I've been obsessed with this skirt since the day I got it, it's a gorgeous colour and can be worn with anything.

Jumper: Wallis Skirt: Boohoo

I think I'm going to keep wearing this jumper until it falls apart, it's just so cute! Are any of you guys braving the weather without tights just yet? To be honest, I'll keep wearing them all year round.

AWOL

Hey guys.
I know I know. I keep going awol. I am sooooo sorry. I promise to be good and blog regularly from now on :) Not forgiven yet?
Okay, here's the reason:
I've gone and got myself a temporary second job, and I know lots of people do it but I do not understand how! My first day off in two weeks is on Thursday and the only reason I've got that is because I got my shift at Wallis covered because it's my boyfriend and I's second year anniversary (don't worry there will be a whole post on that soon.) Anyway, enough of my whining. I am slowly getting into a routine and learning to get things done around work :(. I'm not sure I'll be able to do this full time work lark for the next 40 odd years, I'm exhausted.

So, because I haven't had much time to myself recently I haven't been able to get to many shops, not even online ones, to do any shopping! Which is probably a good thing really seen as the whole reason I'm doing this second job is to save money. However, last week at Wallis we had an up to 30% off event and there was 20% off all jewellery (even sale stuff!) and I had seen a few bits I liked so I thought I might as well get what I wanted whilst this event was on. Big mistake, I ended up spending about £26. Naughty Megan.

Wanna see what I got? Here goes...
p.s before we start, I want to apologise for the quality of the photo's. A new camera is on my list of important things to buy.

Lets start with silver sale. necklace: £4   Ring:£3.20

Black feather earrings £1.60

Matching feather necklace £4.80 

My favourite-gold chain bracelet £4

Non sale - Bracelet £6 Ring:£3.20

And then, just to top it off, I made the mistake of going into Superdrug whilst waiting for my friend. I've been meaning to find a new foundation for a while now, as I'm currently in the process of using up the last bits of my current ones. I was hoping to find a really nice/probably very expensive one, that would become my ultimate fave. However, I happened to spot a '2 for £10' on all Maybelline make-up, and well, I do quite like Maybelline as a high street product, so couldn't really resist!

This foundation is one of the newer ones and at £9.19 on it's own, I thought it would be worthwhile to try as part of this deal. An added bonus was that it actually came in a shade light enough for my skin! I bought it in 'Light Beige' and find it to be a perfect colour match. Result!

At £7.99 it is a reasonably priced mascara, but as part of the 2 for £10, paired with the foundation, it became a bargain.

I saw Tanya Burr post a photo of this mascara on twitter saying it was one  of her favourites, and when I saw it in store,  I was enticed to try it. I had only seen good reviews on it and as it was one of their new mascaras I assumed it would be better than their previous mascaras. Why make something new that's worse than the old right?

So together at retail price it would have been £17.18, so I think £10 was a good deal. This foundation will do for now (because it's better than the rest I currently have) but I am still on the hunt for my amazing foundation.
Got any tips on finding that amazing foundation? Let me know.

Wishlists

Hey guys!

I have decided to do wishlists because it makes me feel like I'm shopping, without spending any money *sigh*. I have created wishlists for Asos, Newlook and Wallis, seen as I work there and all. Now all I need is some extra money and everything could be mine. (Any offers?)

Love this dress, simple and elegant, but a little too short :(. Looking for a new bag, liking this style? Pastel colour blocking, yay or nay? Either way, I love how summery it is and I like how the colours are carried through the dress.

Love a good skater dress! I have been looking for the perfect dip hem dress, could this be it? I like the embellished  shoulders on this top, but am I a fan of the rest of it, hmm. Love some studs, and you always need a new pair of flats.

Who doesn't love pink spotty shoes? I have a confession, I couldn't resist them and bought them. However, I don't feel too guilty because they were only £10, bargain! I love this jumper, I may have to get it as winter uniform. this dress is actually a dipped hem but that isn't shown in the picture, I was drawn in by the colour, but knowing the dresses at Wallis, it would be far too long for me :(. A bunting necklace, Olympic fever, need I have another reason?

Have you guys seen anything you're after?
