STYLE | Hypnotic


Top : Topshop | Skirt : Urban Outfitters | Boots : River Island | Necklace : Not On The Highstreet | Watch : Michael Kors | Bracelet : Gucci



Another night out on the toooon (Newcastle).. And wearing black and white, again! Love this Topshop crop top as its the perfect length, not too cropped but not too long. The photo doesn't show it well but it has mesh sleeves, which just adds a lil something something. My 'Amy' necklace sits perfectly on the top as well, and I never take it off, so that's good!

I wore this fitted skirt soo much over the Christmas holidays, as it matches so much. I wear it with tights (if I can't be bothered to fake tan my legs ha). I think the pattern on it is quite hypnotising when you look at it for too long though! My new little booties make this outfit look slightly grungy which I love! And because they are more flatforms instead of heels, I get the height without the pain. Except because they are new, I now have the most painful blister on my heel, boo. Still won't stop me from wearing them though. As I've said many times before, beauty is pain! 

The fake tan I'm wearing is St Moriz, which I don't usually think is very good but it turned out to be successful! However, my skin is very sensitive to chemicals on my body, so areas of my eczema were irritated a little. I've washed it off and my skin has recovered, so I think I will go back to my usual, Sun Shimmer. 

What fake tan do you use?

STYLE | Monochrome


ASOS Leotard : £20 | Topshop White Jamie Jeans : £45 | Urban Outfitters PEACE Belt :£15 | Office White Textured Heels : £60 | Primark Necklace : £4


The Monochrome look may be a trend for 2013 but I think its a timeless classic. Black and White will always work. Yin Yang again I guess! 

I don't usually wear off the shoulder tops because I didn't have strapless bra that fit me properly. Even though the Topshop strapless I wore on this night, wasn't the best and kept slipping down. And in my opinion I do not think its an attractive trait on a night out, to keep on adjusting underwear in the middle of the dance floor! But I tried to do it as secretly as possible.. Hopefully no one saw!

On second thoughts I wish I wore black heels with this outfit, to balance it out more, but this Office white pair is just so comfy.. Well as comfy as heels can be! And after walking all the way home from the Quayside, they weren't so comfy as I first thought! Although I think they're such a sexy shape, and beauty is pain!

My Primark necklace was a great buy! It was only £4, it hasn't broken, unlike Topshop jewellery which has a much higher price tag! It adds a bit of glitz to any outfit and I've worn it time and time again. There's always something satisfying when getting a bargain, isn't there?

What do you think the monochrome?
