I've always been one of those poeple who sticks to a basic hairstyle. For me, it doesn't get much better than a few waves and I think its become pretty known to the people around me that I rarely wear my hair up, unless of course if Im hungover, which doesn't count.
However, I've noticed that the beauty sections of every magazine lately seem to be giving tips on the perfect updo and I can't help but feel a little envious of how good they look.
I bought the September issue on InStyle the other week, this being the first time I have ever read this particular magazine and in it was Actress Tamsin Egerton (who admittedly would look amazing sporting any kind of hairstyle) modelling different updo's, and although having all my hair scraped back off my face probably wouldn't be my most flattering choice, hence always avoiding it, I am extremely tempted to give them a go.
If my desire ever over-rides my conscience and I do attempt one of the above, i'll keep you posted. I can only hope i'll look as elegant as Tamsin and not something that could of been created by Jedward.
I recently came back from a two week holiday in Spain (I say recently, actually 3am this morning) and am definitely feeling the full effects of the not so marvellous English weather. I arrived home to find the electricity had run out, a glass had smashed in my case and to top it off, I couldn't work out how to turn the heating on. So I dragged myself upstairs and collapsed into bed, thinking about the amazing lie in I had planned. Of course, I woke up at 9am and couldn't get back to sleep.
While on holiday, as sad as it sounds, I made a list of all the little things that needed doing when I got home so I decided to get up and get on with it. Why is that when youre on a roll, getting everything done, your fingers cannot resist typing Topshop.com into the search bar?
Oh what a disaster, I should of known they would have a million and one items that I would want to buy.
I cant help but love the black high-waisted cord shorts, picturing them with some Allsaints vests or a chunky cardi, its almost impossible to resist. And the variety makes you want one in every colour, from spots, stripes, velvet, leather, cord..
As every student will tell you, it always seems to be 'hard times' when it comes to money, so when looking for a birthday dress (which I know is supposed to be expensive), I was praying that I would find something a bit cheaper but still as affective. Searching through every fashion magazine I could find, I came across missguided.co.uk, a site I had never heard of before. Its fantastic!! Ok, like every cheap store it has its fair share of tack, but it really is the best place to go for some knock off Topshop and a decent price. What better time to treat yourself than during a spout of depression, although I have been lucky enough to spend two weeks in the sunshine, I am claiming this as a good enough reason to splash out.
Im sure one day ill be able to save up enough money to enjoy the finer things in life, by this i mean maybe a few Mulberry handbags and some Louboutins, but for now it will definitely do.
Apparently I'm one of those people who tend to procrastinate during tasks, guess its time to get back to sorting my life out.
