What is it about trying to take a few blog photographs that is so difficult? Well for one there is lighting and the realization that your outfit is either too basic or horrifically unflattering. Then amongst a range of other technical issues there is the large problem that is the general public.
I could try and disguise our mishaps in order to appear professional, however that's not the kind of girls we are so I will admit that en-route to our location, we recieved a multitude of heckles from passing vans. I mean really, yes we have a camera, we are in fact taking photographs, that is generally the use for which people purchase a camera?
Anyway... rant over with, I decided to go with a summery outfit despite still including the staple black and grey. I'm really into layering necklaces at the moment and so I stacked this Zara one over a vintage, handmade shark tooth necklace which my great grandad brought back from Africa.
The sunglasses make me look like a fly or possibly an 80's police officer but I felt that they went well with the outfit. Let us know what your frustrations are when creating blog content!

Summer seems to have finally arrived and that calls for a BBQ. Charlotte and I had a really good night and intended to take photos of the food to post, however it looked a bit burnt and rather unappealing, although it still tasted great!
I made the most of the heat with this grunge inspired outfit as I was desperate to wear my new shorts. I did try wearing them without the cycling shorts and lets just say, they brought about unwanted attention, ahem.
I was really jealous of Charlotte's bronze smokey eye and winged liner which was on point I must say, the heat always makes me really lazy when it comes to makeup so I find myself reaching for bright lipsticks more often. Last night I decided to dig out MAC Pink Nouveau after seeing Desi Perkins makeup tutorial.
Hope you're all loving the heat!

Tee shirt: Primark, Leggings: Topshop, Wedges: H&M, Necklace: eBay
Grey days, cold winds and rain. Isn't it time for winter to be over, I am itching to wear a Spring inspired bright lip and to have the option of putting on a tee shirt without contracting hypothermia.
Despite the crisp ...very crisp March air, I decided to opt for the tee shirt I picked up in our recent Primark haul. I am a huge fan of sports wear inspired pieces as of late, especially when paired with a statement necklace.
I paired the tee shirt, (which by the way was only £5!) with my Topshop Wet look leggings, the petite ones if you hadn't have guessed and I revived my old H&M wedge ankle boots from the depths of my shoe cupboard. They were the first pair of platform shoes I owned and whilst they do look a bit precarious they are surprisingly easy to walk in. Please excuse my socks by the way, does anyone else find sports relief socks to be insanely comfortable?
Also I lightened my hair and covered up my roots using Garnier Nutrisse creme in shade 9 Blonde Aphrodite. I don't know how I feel about the colour, however I am a very indecisive individual. Personally I feel it is a bit too warm for my liking and I have been using a toning shampoo to try and combat this. Red hair has always been a dream but I have been strongly advised against it... I suppose it would be difficult to go back to blonde if I didn't like it.
I cannot wait for the weather to warm up now! Let me know what your looking forward to wearing next season, and what colour should I dye my hair next?

Jacket: Vintage and customised, Jumpsuit: Topshop, Boots : Monki, Necklace: H&M
Hi everyone, Early signs of spring are starting to show but it's still freezing here in Manchester! I recently bought this petite black jumpsuit from Topshop, it's a very easy outfit staple that can be worn causally or dressed up for a night out with accessories. I bought this denim jacket from Oxfam and then studded the front using spikes i purchased off eBay to give it a more unique and authentic feel. I feel like this outfit is kind of 80's with the jumpsuit which I quite like! Hope your all having a good year so far - Grace xx
