With a Friend


She can stand the Fa-La-Las now, but before turkey time, not so much. Christmas is coming and she's at her friend's house, letting him test out his photography skills and giving him guidance on it. Vertical, not horizontal unless sitting. Stand in front and let her face the light. White balance; fix it. Whole body in the picture to get the outfit. He'll learn... in due time.

ABOUT THE LOOK: First off, the pictures are a little bright and I apologize about that. It was a little dark and gloomy outside, so we had to take pictures inside and, with no photography lights, flash would have to do! Anyway, a current trend I have fallen in love with is bodysuits! I got this one from OohlaLuxe and I was most definitely satisfied with it. It formed to my body, unlike most suits I have tried on, and the mesh panels made it super sexy, although I toned it down for school. I always love a good ole "pop piece," in this case the pop of color from the scarf. 





BLOOPERS: Ah, well, yes. This scarf is not the ideal stationary item to hide behind if need be. Just saying.

Fashion Vouchers Competition


It's another comp-comp-competition time! This time it is sponsored by Fashion Vouchers. For the competition, I had to choose one of their merchants and create a Christmas  Party outfit for £100 or under PLUS I was allowed to use any of the discounts on their site. If you'd like to participate in the competition as well, click HERE. Otherwise, keep reading to here about the outfit pieces I chose!:

You all know how I feel about dresses and Christmas parties... there's to many of them. No matter how pretty your dress is, you're still wearing one along with every other girl at the party. That's why I love that Glamorous was one of the merchants in the list to choose from! These sequin shorts would look gorgeous when paired with the simple black bodysuit with those mesh inserts. And, since it's a party, the more sequins the better right? Your wardrobe needs to sparkle as much as your personality which is why those sequins wedges and cardi is going to make you the girl that everyone wants to talk to at the party! You're not wearing a dress too, so prepare to look good, stand out and have fun! Not to mention, if you added all the prices up, it's more than £100, well, with the code GLAMOROUS20 (as found on fashionvouchers.com) you'd get 20% off the order, which is what kept me in the limit for the competition! Thanks Fashion Vouchers!

Cut and Dye

It was cold out. Not the kind of cold that freezes water, but the kind that makes your hair stand straight up on your spine. It was the breezes. It was that time of the year. It was fall. Finally.
Brown leaves and that cool breeze. Spiked necklace cold against her neck. She's at a soccer field in a small town but dreaming of traveling to a bigger city. She wants to see the world, see fashion, see new people. But all she can see right now is the warm, black leather jacket calling her name.

ABOUT THE LOOK: I cut my hair! And dyed it, as well as you can see. I'm not too happy with it, but it's exactly what I told my hair dresser to do (AKA my mom). When I first got it, I straightened it and I looked like Cher or the girl off the Adams Family. Bleh. I feel like I'll figure it out how to rock it though. So, about the look; I went for a toned-down rocker sort of look. I have tight pants on and snakeskin/suede heels, but paired it with this nice white sweater to give it a softer touch. Although the spiked necklace leans more towards the rocker side, it's still a pretty balanced outfit.

Barratt Winter Wonderland II

Dresses, dresses, dresses. Isn't that all we see at Christmas parties anymore? Why blend in with the bunch of twirling Tweedle Dees when you can attract all of the attention in this super cute Peplum Mesh Romper ($48.00)? Pair it with this super sexy, stylish and studded pair of shoes from Barratts called the Truffle Spike Stud Wedge Ankle Boots (£45.00) and Barratts Satin Clutch Bag With Diamante Trim (£15.00 ). For accessories, I would pair this daring outfit with Nasty Gal's Braided Wool Hat - Wine ($38.00) and incredible Chain Reaction Handpiece ($20.00).
