OOTD


Outfit of the day! My first one I’m very excited! Now I’m not sure about the picture quality here so do let me know what you think. The weather in England (or my part at least) is completely miserable, it’s drizzly, grey and I can’t wait to get to another country and some sun (little bit of a moan there sorry!). So unfortunately my summer clothes are remaining in my wardrobe but I thought I’d post my outfit anyway. Today I’m wearing my new Asos skirt; it’s a gentle a line style with a gingerbread man print. I then paired it with a plain black spaghetti strap top and to make the look not to childish I guess I wore my leather jacket too (from international). I thought this gave the look a bit more of an edge rather than a pretty look. I then added my high heeled turn down ankle boots from new look about two years ago but I absolutely love them so have kept them quite a while now.
My jewellery is all silver and quite simple; I went for my h necklace which was a birthday present and a silver pearl bracelet. My makeup is a simple smoky eye and a plum lip, and I left my hair natural and kind of wavy. 

Hope you like,

Bourjois Magic Nail Polish Remover Review


As promised here is my more in depth review on the new(ish) Bourjois nail polish remover. Now overall I really like this product and I would buy it again, I love that I don’t need cotton pads and it is quick (not quite the one second that is says on the tin though). However there are a few draw backs. The first one is that you can’t really remove toe nail polish with it (very awkward sticking each toe in individually I must say)! Which isn’t a massive problem but it is a tad annoying to have to buy two products one for nails and one for toes when one would easily suffice. And secondly is for me the smell. I find the smell much stronger than most nail varnishes and as I said earlier it definitely takes more than a second to remove it. So if you have the money I would recommend this it’s not awfully expensive but not really what I’d call cheap either, its £4.99 at boots but if you are on a budget I would say stick to the quickies wipes or bottle stuff with some good ol’ cotton wool instead of buying a multiple products for the same job.
