OOTD & Review | ft. Choies Clothes



An outfit which i've been loving over the past few weeks, has been a combination of this white Geek printed t-shirt and geometric totem printed shorts from Choies. 

This outfit is just so quick and easy to throw on in the morning. Also, its comfortable, but still cute. What more can a girl want in an outfit?

As with the majority of my clothes, this outfit is monochromatic. This means that it's super easy to pair with other items. Today I paired it with a pair of black bow ballet flats from Rubi, and a bright red lip (to add a bit of festivity into my look).

I can't wait to see what other items I can pair this outfit with in the coming summertime.

NOTD | Keep Up The Flame by Maybelline

Hello my lovelies!

Today's post is a NOTD, which is ever so slightly christmas themed. Being only 9 days away from christmas, i'm most definitely getting into the holiday spirit!

The nail polish which I wanted to show today, is the Maybelline Color Show Nail Lacquer in 250 Keep Up The Flame. I was luckily gifted this as an early christmas present, and I think it's the perfect shade of red to have on your nails and toes during the month of christmas.




This is a gorgeous bright cherry red shade, with a creme finish. It is extremely pigmented, and looks stunning and totally opaque with only 2 thin coats.



So thats all I have for today's post. I hope you've enjoyed, and that you love this polish as much as I do!

OOTD & Review | ft. Style Lately 'DUH' Tee

image

One of my staple fashion items, are plain t-shirts with phrases on them. I just find that they fit perfectly with my day-to-day style, and I can pair them with so many different pieces. 

I've been loving this t-shirt with the word "Duh" on it, from Style Lately. Being white with black writing, its so versatile, whilst still being a lot cuter than a plain white t-shirt. 

Today I wanted a monochromatic outfit, so I paired this t-shirt with a black and white spotted skirt, and a black pair of sandals (not pictured).

I'm loving this t-shirt at the moment, and I am super excited to see what other summery outfits I can incorporate this t-shirt into.

OOTD & Review | ft. OMG Fashion Dip Dye Denim Shorts


One of my favourite fashion trends during the summer time, is just to throw on a plain pair of denim shorts. I think that denim shorts suit so many different outfits, and are just so comfortable. To be completely honest, I practically live in denim shorts throughout the months of december and january. 
I saw these stunning Dip Dye Denim Shorts from OMG Fashion, and I knew that they had to get in my wardrobe as soon as possible.

I know i'm going to get a lot of wear out of these throughout the summer time, as they are so versatile and comfortable, and are a great quality. I think the blue denim to white ombre/dip dye effect is stunning, and I really like the worn effect that the frayed trim and rips give. 

At only $34 AUD, these shorts are such a steal. Seeing how affordable they were, I was really surprised with the amazing quality of these shorts. They have a really heavy and thick texture, so you know that they are made out of great quality denim.

What I also love about these shorts, is that they are so versatile. They look lovely paired with both bright and neutral colours. For this review, I paired them with a sky blue t-shirt from Supre, and a pair of glossy black ballet flats from Cotton On.

NOTD | Absolutely Blue by Essence

Hello my gorgeous readers!

Today I have a quick NOTD post for you all. I apologise for my lack of posts lately (on both my blog and youtube channel) but i've been swamped with tests and assessment tasks! Now that school is closer to ending for the year, there should be a lot more content posted soon!

The nail polish of my choice today, is another Essence Colour & Go Nailpolish. Have you caught on to my love of Essence products yet?! This one is in 125, Absolutely Blue.


This polish is a gorgeous baby blue shade, with a subtle lavender tint to it. I'm awful at describing colours, but hopefully the photos will show you what I mean! Anyway, this is a creme formula polish.


I only had to do two coats for this polish to become fully opaque. As with most of Essence's nail polishes, it has quite a thick formula (not in a bad way). 

I can't really comment on the lasting power of this polish, as i've only just applied it, but if it is like most of the other Essence nail polishes i've tried, it should last a good 3 days before starting to chip.

Hope you've enjoyed this quick post!
