Well, extreme for me :/

Greetings from sunny Aberdeen! I am a makeupaholic and went a wee bit crazy this past week.  Basically I'm from Trinidad (in the Caribbean) but since moving to Aberdeen 4 years ago, I've gotten quite pale and my foundations don't seem to match.  Either they're muddy or look pale in camera flashes.  So I went into Inglot who are having a deal on where you get foundation, face powder and blush for £25.  A good deal right?  Anyway dangerous pics ahead...well not really that dangerous.

I don't know about anyone else but I'm really enjoying the arrival of Forever 21 to London. Very affordable, great range of stuff and the quality seems pretty decent.

Anyway:

I just bought this in the sale, been wanting one for ages.

I bought my very first items in the new Autumn/Winter range at River Island yesterday!

They cost me only £55 in total as I had a £50 giftcard I'd saved from Christmas specifically to buy winter boots at this store! I do ♥ River Island boots (& bags)!

This bag cost £40. I couldn't resist it - it feels amazing to stroke! LOL I did have a slight panic as I came out of the shop that I may have unknowingly bought real fur, but it's not! *wipes brow* It's bloody huge! lol





These are the boots I decided on! I needed some flat, warm boots as England is getting more snow than ever during the winter now. And these boots are so freaking comfy it is unreal!! It's like walking on cushions! :D I can't wait to wear them! They cost £65.




So, what do you think?! Have you started buying for the new season yet? :)

Hello! I see the community isn't very active at the moment. Well here's a post with an outfit I wore for an interview this morning and then some buys from BooHoo which arrived when I got home :)

Hello, me again.

Here are some outfit photos from the last couple of weeks, mostly work outfits. I apologise that this is mostly a tour of the changing rooms of Coventry, I just can't get up in time to take proper photos before work!

Hello! So it's been a while since I posted here. Since this community seems to be undergoing a bit of a revival of the last week or so, I thought I'd post some of my recent outfits.

I apologise in advance that the quality of these varies considerably. But then it wouldn't be a THS post without a few mirror shots, would it?

Right then who wants to see bad photos of high street junk I've bought lately..?!

My outfit for today:



The skirt is from River Island. The pink camisole, denim jacket, black & silver swallow necklace, and silver wrist cuff are all New Look.

I'd love to see what everyone else is wearing in this very un-British heatwave! :D I miss this community!
