Jen

Hey guys, I know it's been long time. I've been knee deep in ~~clunge~~ deadlines and blogging has taken a back-seat I'm afraid. Also, I keep on having these little epis like, why do I blog? is there any point ? Is it boring for everyone to read? Should I be posting swatches of all my makeup?? Dressing up in something I'm not actually wearing that day? It's so cold, dressing nice is hard man! Wah Wah Waahhhhh! It''s been difficult, but I'm going to keep at it and be me. So decide to do this post showing you a few cool looks I photog'd (badly) at LFW :) I miss it already, I met so many cool people, I hung out with Jen from www.jjnoir.blogspot.co.uk for the whole thing and she is a BABE, I wouldn't have had a clue if she wasn't there with me. We were complete blaggers - managed to get free Mac makeovers and goodybags- they said they were booked up but hanging around worked. I also met Promise of Follow me in 5inch heels, Wunmi from Daisy-mak, Breeny-Lee, Melissa from Melissa's Wardrobe, Liv from Fashion Somebody and Lucia from Lucia Lolita. Nice to hang out with other boggers, I did feel a little like an imposter though haha!

In other news... The winner of my giveaway is DUH DUH DUUUUUUH

I've emailed you YAY!

Also...THANKS BABBAS to everyone who subscribed to my Youttube channel!!!! I have only done one video and got 107 subs BOO-YA! I want to do another tonight, It'll probably be another haul/ update, but let me know if you'd like to see anything in particular?

Last but not least, I've been wanting to do a wishlist for ages now. Been shopping like crazy and always wanting more, and I think I've found a few gems you'll appreciate:

1. ASOS Fatal sandals - £45 - These are amazing! It would be nice to feel like a hard nut wearing these, remind me of Docs a little :)
2. Monki Mella bra - £12 -  Sexy and comfy, best of both - and only £12.
3. Miss Selfridge white leather jacket - £165 -  Bloody expensive, but I lust after this at work all the time, justification = timeless.
4. Ebay Smiley face crop top - £5.99 - Cheap and fun, seen this on a lot of sites for triple the price, Ebay FTW.
5. Barry M Matte White nai polish - £2.99 -  Don't know why but I don't have a white nail polish, this matte one would be perfect.
6. Adidas Super Tech Ink - £90 - Had my eye on these for a while, they look amazing on and a nice change from Nikes
7. Topman Tiger print shirt - £30 -  I wanted to buy this for Rob, but it's a bit too jazzy for him - all the better for me :D
8. Rihanna for River Island dungaree crop top - £30 -  It's sold out online but still in shops. Wasn't sure till I tried it on but I can feel I'm going to be wearing this all summer!
9. Nelly Holographic perspex heels - £45 - Perfect. Need to stop buying strappy sandals too, who do I think I am, Rihanna?
10. Educate Elevate Slammin' tee - £20 - I love this brand, so effing 90's, fresh and with a great message, saw this on their Instagram AND I WANT IT! Would make it into a sick crop top.
11. Topshop Astrix chunky boots - £40 - Best purchase I've made all week, so much love for these!!!!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand ..... I've been nominated for that Company blogger thingy so if you like le blog it would be nice if you could nominate me, might get to go to some glitzy event and god knows I never get to go to any!

Loads of love

LFW : Day 1 - Bloggers, shows and ting! BEST DAY EVER!!

Dress: Zara

Jacket : Topshop

Bag : NewLook

Boots : H&M

Socks : Topshop

Jen and Helena looking fab!

I had the most amazing Friday at London Fashion Week! I woke up ridiculously hungover after what may have been the best valentines night EVER, ripped my wardrobe apart for a last minute outfit then rushed over to Somerset House to meet up with Helena from Bell's Fashion an hour and a half late (sorry man :S). Gutted I missed the first show but I managed to get to a few more later, Belle Sauvage, Runway Collective and Nova Chiu ( going to be doing a show post another day stay tuned :) ) In between shows Jen of J Noir took me over to the Waldorf Hilton to the New Look Refuel room which was SO GOOD! Champers, little sandwiches, brownies bubbletea, smoothies, hair, nails, eyelashes, photobooth IT HAD EVERYTHING! I hadn't had time to eat anything that day so not gonna lie I got a little tipsy... free champagne okay?? I also met a friend of Jens and blogger Sheree of Glitz & Grime who was so lovely/cool/beautiful, had some photobooth fun ...

I Papped Dionne Bromfield

Sneak peek of the shows

So far so good! I was going to head down again today but you should see my room, it smells like a teenage boys bedroom and my wardrobe looks like it's been vomiting on my floor... So gonna get my shit together and hopefully I'll see some of you guys at LFW tomorrow.
