Work OOTD's...

Hiya guys,

Thought i'd just do a quick post on a couple of the outfits i have been wearing to work recently. One of them includes my amazing H&M tapered trousers in a lovely autumny brown colour, which i hear is THE colour for winter 2011! What a find! Plus they fit ama\ingly too. Hope this post gives you some idea on what to wear to work without looking boring!!

Much love,

Break outs...

Hi Guys,

So, i've been suffering from a bit of a break out recently. Disgusting i know, but it's a topic that, in this situation, MUST be discust! I tend to get spotty around my chin area more and a little on my forehead and around my nose (the genral oily areas). I also have a little bit of scaring around my chin from past breakouts.

I had finally had enough of having spotty skin when i started work because it's just not very nice to be honest. So i was watching Barbara, thepersianbabe one day and she was talking about having moderately spot prone skin and mentioned a product called PanOxyl. It's a cream that you dab onto your spotty areas. Mine is in 5.0 (there is also a 2.5 and a 10.0). You can get it over the counter at Boots or your local chemist, it's not prescribed, but needs to be used minimally. 

But now onto the main point of this post..... OMG, isn't it amazing!!! I have only been using it for the last 4 days, once a day, sparingly, but i noticed the effects straight away. It may sound discusting but it flakes off any dead skin you have from older spots and has really started clearing up all the scaring! Basically, i love this stuff and if you've got moderatetly bad spots but not as bad as acne i would definitly recommend this stuff. A*******

Winter Wonders...

Hi guys,

It's already September :S But it already feels like it could be December here in England!! So I'm preparing to don the wellies and hoodies and hopefully something maybe a little more fashionable!! Here's what is going to be in for Autumn 2011...

City Chic


Tailoring is really in fashion over the winter period of '11. This means really fitted clothes that looks quite office worthy. This also ties into the boyish trend and 40's glamour trend which are all about very masculine clothes. You can find classic clothes like this anywhere on the high street.Topshop are doing some amazing city shorts at the moment which I love!! The fitted waist really nips you in while the wider gap for the leg makes your pins look slim...
Topshop - £42.00 (also nails the fetish trend with leather waist band!)
Topshop Short - £36.00



Fetish...

Everyone has gone leather and buckle crazy this Autumn/Winter. I really like the look of leather leggings or trousers. But if your going to grab a pair of leather leggings girls make sure your top is long enough to cover your bum!!! At the moment I'm eyeing up these part faux leather trousers on ebay! They would look amazing with possibly a chocker (also one of this seasons trends), a slouchy maroon coloured batwing top and a pair of killer black wedges...

Only an amazing £20!!!

H&M - £19.99
Polka dots...

Polka dots are the pattern to head for this Autmn/ Winter. This trend is brilliant because there is a massive array of polka dot fashion that you can get your hands on, on the high street. It can be as simple as a polka dot vest top or bracelet, or as crazy as a completly dotty dress...




Jewel Tones...

The new colour spectrum for Autumn/Winter 2011 sounds more like a trip to the jewellery store, but with everyone rocking ruby red, emerald green, sumptuious saphire and amazing amytheyst, this years christmas parties are going to be an amazing display of sophisticated colour...


Topshop - £55.00
River Island - £60.00

 What does everyone think of the new Autumn/Winter trends for 2011? Do you approve or will you not be following the trends this year?
