ASOS Wishlist #2

ASOS Wishlist #3


Hi everyone! Your girl's got only one more nightshift of work remaining for the summer, my 'summer' vacation wasn't as productive as I'd hoped... but whatever, only good vibes over here (insert pink nails emoji). Most of my time was spent sleeping and browsing ASOS as per usual and today I decided to show you a bit of what's currently on my wish list. For me summer's already, it's been raining for 4 days straight over here and I'm just over it, the nights are dark as if it were already winter and honestly I'm looking forward to A/W because the two are my favourite seasons especially style wise - layering is my thang! In honour of the colder months quickly approaching, I'm ready to restock my wardrobe with some cosy pieces as showcased in the image above, that dress is among the other pieces just because it's so pretty and I couldn't resist.

What is your favourite time of the year?

Asos Wishlist #1
Pay day is almost here and I've got another wishlist post, I definitely wouldn't mind if some of these items magically appeared in my wardrobe - for instance the dresses and orange culottes. Although I'm short, I think I might actually be able to pull off the culottes look, nothing a bit of heel can't solve! I think these items would be the perfect addition to my wardrobe for spring/summer. 
My 'sleepcation' was very much needed and it felt great to not wake up with a hangover on Sunday morning, instead I spent most of my free time binge-watching Sons of Anarchy, I'm hooked and right now I'm just about done with season 4!

What's on your wishlist for April and have you watched any episode of SOA?

SATURDAY NIGHT

Asos

 Trench coat - VILA // Dress - ASOS // Skirt - Gina Tricot // Heels - Public Desire

Good morning loves. Hope you're having an awesome week. Today I've got another outfit post and this one's from last Saturday, I attended one of my girlfriends's birthday party and as per usual, I was running late. First I was going to wear the dress from boohoo - got off of Asos; but then it started raining and got even more colder right when I was about to leave the house.

Long story short, I added a black skirt and this is what I ended up with. Also I'm so loving my new lightweight jacket from VILA. I got it for around $66.00 and when I looked at the VILA website, it's being sold for $45.00. Iceland why you gotta be so expensive? It's guaranteed that isn't the last time you'll be seeing this pretty jacket.

Mum's Graduation Ceremony

Asos
Hey everybody, hope you're having a relaxed Sunday evening. Yesterday my mum received her B.A Degree in Social Education from The University of Iceland so you know it was a long joyous day. On Friday night before we prepared some food and got beverages ready for Saturday as we wouldn't have time to prepare everything from scratch after the graduation ceremony. We got up very early on Saturday morning and helped mum get ready - outfit styling and make-up by yours truly.

Autumn is fast approaching, at least in this part of the world and I cannot wait. If you've been a follower of the blog for long then you probably know how I feel about the colder seasons; Autumn in particular. I love this time of the year because it's not too cold nor too warm outside and it gives me the opportunity to layer my clothes which is one of my favourite things to do. I love piling on layers and layers of cover-ups especially XL plaid shirts and knee-high socks with boots. Above are a couple of things I'm lusting over for the upcoming season.
What's your favourite way of dressing up in Autumn?

Inspiration | Baby it's cold outside...

Asos
Untitled #39

 The first day of Winter isn't even yet here and it has already started snowing.  I have mixed feelings about this seeing as I hate the rain/winds that come with snow but on the other hand I love being able to put on as many layers of clothes as I'd like and not feel like a roasting potatoe. But I'm excited,  only 6 more weeks to (hopefully) my graduation and I'll be done with school, now the stress begins of what to study at Uni for the future...that part stresses the crap out of me but I'm going to take time deciding because  I would rather do something I love later on without a hurry than rushing into a career I will later get bored of and live the rest of my adult life miserably.
Anyway as seen above I'm loving grays (and need to stock up), navy and plum lips, I've been wearing these three shades very much as of late. What are you loving for the cold months?

A new month calls for an inspirational post with a few items I need lust for in my wardrobe/beauty counter. Now I haven't been shopping too much this past month (the Naked 3 palette in my last post is from long ago, just forgot to post about it), the reason's because I've been working like a crazy person, but I plan on treating myself to something good very soon. I'm just really trying to save as much money as I can because I have big plans ahead and I want to be financially stable when the time comes. Believe it or now but I've actually never purchased anything off of ASOS before... that's about to change soon.
Wishing you all a sunny and happy Thursday unlike the storm that's passing through over here. xo

World Cup 2014 Fashion || Part 1

Asos

World Cup Look #1
The weekend went by very fast, didn't even feel like a weekend really seeing as I've been working straight the last four days. The World Cup's begun and I cannot tell you guys how much I'm excited for this moment, I've always been a huge football fan (please don't go on commenting about how it's called soccer and not football, we come from different continents...). I happen to have a few favourite teams and I'll talk about them in another post, it's always a pleasure seeing one of the many teams that I support go through to the finals, the last World Cup was amazaaaaazin seeing as my favourite team got the title of World Champions!

This first outfit is very casual and laid back, there's been a lot of rain and so a raincoat or umbrella would be necessary although probably uncomfortable for those sitting behind and next to you. A hat would be fine, it'd get wet but wouldn't be too much in the way of others as an umbrella would.

World Cup Look #2

For the 2nd outfit I chose a light flowy white dress with a sweetheart neckline, perfect summer item and add a few earth toned accessories and you're all ready for the game while still being stylish. Add a scarf of your favourite team or do it through your face make up. A raincoat is a must to keep your pretty dress from being ruined!


Anyway I've got even more football game appropriate outfits planned as the competition goes on so stay tuned if you'd be interested in seeing more. Do you guys watch as much football as I do? Because my whole family we even stay up late to watch a game despite having an early start the very next day; that's how dedicated we are.

Wishlist #4


Happy Friday loves, hope you have/ are having/ had a great day depending on which part of the world you're in. I'm glad everyone liked my personalised beanie that I talked about in my last 2 posts, if you haven't seen it then make sure you do. Today I have another wishlist post including a plaid shirt, a deep red lipstick; especially 'Ruby Woo' from MAC. I've been eyeing this baby for the longest time but never actually bought it when in the store. Anyway, then I also really want a Michael Kors wrist watch, the only watch that I own is my Casio I'd received from my lovely mum two Christmases ago and ever since I've been wearing it constantly and that's why I feel the need to purchase another one so I can give this one a rest. Also since the sales begun I've been on the hunt for a perfect of high waist jeans that are comfortable as well but the searching hasn't been going too well. I'm just unlucky like that. I've also fallen in love with satchels and the Cambridge ones are on the top of my list right now, and of course one can never have too many beanies right...

Currently Craving | The Chunky Heel

Asos
I've been lusting for a pair of ankle booties/sandals with a chunky heel for the longest time now, at first I always found them to be ugly but as time passed I grew fonder of them and now I'm dying to get myself a pair and there's already one I've been eye-ing on Ebay as well as in Topshop, they are not too different from one another but of course the ones on Ebay are way cheaper than the Topshop ones including toll. I really want them in white as they're likely to make more of a statement than the black ones but then again I still am not too sure of how much use I'll get out of them. Decisions, decisions.
Do you own any chunky heeled shoes; and if so how do they feel when you walk in them, are they heavy?

New Years Eve Outfits

Asos
As the new year is fast approaching I decided to put together a few outfits to inspire those in need (of a little sparkle). Most of the items used you probably already own or you have something very similar so make sure you raid your wardrobes before going out and spending a lot of money on a new dress or a sequined skirt that you probably won't even use too much.

New Years Eve #1
Outfit 1: this outfit is perfect for N.Y.E because it's very glam and classy. I chose a pretty black dress as that is definitely something most people would opt for and also it's something that probably already exists in your wardrobe so you don't have to go out and spend a huge amount of money on another dress. The fur will keep you warm as the night gets younger and watch will be there to keep time so you do not miss out on your midnight kiss.
New Years Eve #2

Outfit 2: I'm sure everyone already owns a tight mini skirt in their wardrobes, it doesn't have to be sequined but pretty much anything with some sort of design/print/embellishment will do for this look. The main focus of this outfit is this sequined skirt and I accessorised the whole outfit around the skirt, for shoes I went with these creamy pumps to bring out the pink/coral colour in the skirt and as for earrings I wanted them to stand out on their own so that's why I opted for these minty coloured earrings and the rest is black to tie down everything together.
New Years Eve #3


Outfit 3: this outfit is for my ladies that aren't too into dresses nor skirts but don't worry you can still be able to rock your pants on this special night by pairing them with a cropped top and some major necklace piece and also go bold with your lips and nails. Adding a touch of sparkle is a must and this clutch is perfect for that as it isn't too overwhelming and can fit your necessities. This jacket adds also the perfect amount of colour to the outfit itself and also it's long and cosy to keep you warm.
New Years Eve #4

Outfit 4: the ALL-IN outfit that will have you feeling like a celebrity. Pop on this gorgeous sequined piece, add some blue sparkles to your nails for contrast and also either go bold with your lips wearing a purple lipstick to avoid lookinh too matchy-matchy or you could stick to the nudes. Add on a pair of black heels and a clutch and you'll be ready to go; just don't forget your fur for warmth.


That's it, for this New Years Eve outfit I already feel myself leaning towards the sequined dress but not actually too sure because with this weather of ours one can never predict. Guess you'll just have to wait until the New Year to see what I wear and also let me know below what you'll be wearing and which one of these outfits you prefer.
