Purple kisses & knee-high boots/ Make-up and OOTD



Good morning lovely people! 
This week has been a little weird for me, as I made a decision to leave my college course, as I'd lost interest in it months ago. I have been trying to make positive plans for myself to get me through a long summer, which includes the ever so fun task of trying to get a job and I started doing some volunteering at the Exchange gallery. 
I think sometimes it's necessary for your mental health and motivation to leave something that is not right for you. It was making me anxious, tired and really quite miserable and although there are many people who'll disagree with my decision, I truly believe I've made the right one.
Today I put together a very simple outfit with my new(ish) black faux suede knee-high boots which I love so much! I teamed them with a black turtle neck, grey tube skirt, tights and curled my hair. I also wanted to feature a new lip product that I've been loving which is this amazing purple matte lip lacquer from MUA.
I hope you enjoy!



 Make-up:
Liquid pen liner- Barry M
Various eyeshadows- Benefit, Revolution and MUA
They're Real mascara- Benefit
Brow kit in dark brown- Sleek
Matte lip lacquer in kooky- MUA

Thank you for reading & stay lovely x

Solitaire, something you consider rare/ How to work vintage pin-stripe trouser & play suits that look like lingerie



Hello lovely people, I am back!
It's been an insane amount of time since I've posted anything, I guess because life has got in the way a bit... But in good news, the weather is getting brighter (god, I sound so British) and I'll be done with this year of college very soon! 
Today I have put together two outfits including some items I've purchased recently. I found some amazing high-waisted pin-stripe trousers in a little pop-up vintage sale in Falmouth and paired them with a classic black turtle neck and platform boots. I also picked up a purple velvet embroidered kimono with tassels which I styled with a lovely silky black playsuit, a skinny belt and over the knee socks.
I hope you enjoy this post & I promise I'll be back to posting weekly Xx
