OOTD: Before College Came To A Halt.

Pre-easter holidays was when I decided upon this look. It was a day that meant results for exams, stress and a lot of running around, trying to get stuff done before college closed for two weeks. But just because I needed a casual, relaxed outfit, that didn't mean I was gonna give up on style. Hell no! So, I decided on a sort of tight/ sort of baggy jumper from the ever so lovely Forever 21 in blue, the nice, baggy and amazing looking Harem pant in black from H&M and a spiked leather jacket also in black from Pull&Bear. To add a splash of colour, since everything in my outfit was either, black or blue I then put on tribal print scarf from Topshop. And Fin! Outfit complete.

Fresh Faces.

I have to admit, about a year to two years ago, my skin was not in great condition. I guess everyone has that belief to an extent, but I truly believed that it could have been better. I remember going past Lush in Westfield and the smell was so enticing, I had to take a closer peek. Upon entering, I was greeted by my friend, little did I know that she worked there and she offered me some wonderful advise along with an amazing product called 'Angels On Bare Skin'. Truly amazing. Its like putty. You add water and hey presto, you have a face scrub. Along with this I used a sliced lemon (sounds weird right?!) but it works. You just rub delicately in a circular motion then rinse off. My skin is brighter, smoother and a lot more appealing in my books. Definitely worth a try. 

Next, is this dream in a bottle from Avon. Planet Spa mud mask is probably the best mud mask I have used yet. Its really thick and spreads easily, so not a lot is needed. and it smells divine. After about 20 mins (I'm a bit extra) again, smooth skin is a result, which always puts a smile on my face. Being truthful, I do believe Avon products to be good quality anyway, so it came as no surprise when I tried this product.  

 

To finish off my skin care routine, I think it's best to say, it's vital to have a moisturiser to help keep a dry face at bay. For that I use Shea Butter. It just works for my skin. I don't find it thick or too greasy but perfect. And best of all, it can also be used for the whole body! So that's exactly what I do.

OOTD: College Days

I'm beginning to blog less but in saying this, I still take everyday pictures, collect them then blog. I feel this suits me best. This outfit I really liked. Although I didn't judge the weather properly and ended up freezing my bum off, I guess it was worth it in the name of fashion. As the saying goes, pretty hurts! Here I'm wearing my Zara high waisted shorts ( though to me they look like skinny jeans in this picture), Office brown boots, white shirt from a long ago shop at Forever 21, and two of my favorite pieces, my khaki jacket and grey t-shirt straight from Korea.

I've had this jacket now from since year 10 and I'm in year 13 now (4 years isn't so long I guess). I just can't seem to throw it away cause I love it so much! But hey, I guess old things are becoming new things nowadays.
