Cutting off my hair

Hello, everybody! 

So about 3 weeks ago I chopped off a decent amount of hair. I went from all this ...

 to this...

About just over a year before I got my hair dyed ombre. I really like the colour and it was nice. However, I hadn't died my hair before this and it proved very difficult to care for. I hadn't had my hair cut since I got it died and therefore my hair was in horrible condition. It felt dead and weak and it was just a nightmare to deal with. I had been wanting to go for a big change for a while so I just went ahead and cut it. 

Honestly, I miss the length of my hair a lot but it feels so much nicer now. It's a lot easier to care for and I know that my hair will grow quickly. I don't regret cutting it but I am excited for it to grow back!

Just a quick post but I wanted to write about it, so I did.

Thanks for reading, I hope your day goes well.

Bye!

Summer Picnic OOTD

Hello, everybody, I hope your day is going well.

The another day I went on a picnic with all my friends, so today I thought I would talk to you about my outfit.

I chose to wear this outfit because not only did I like how it looked but it was comfortable. On the day it was pretty hot and the sun was shining, so, of course, I wanted something that wouldn't make me too hot. I thought these shorts was perfect because of their flowy nature, they kept me nice and cool. Also with weather like this I love wearing crop tops with high waisted shorts or skirts. As for shoes, I decided to wear my coral canvas style shoes as they were super comfortable and added a pop of colour to the outfit.

Sunglasses ~ H&M

Crop top ~ New Look

Shorts ~ Possibly peacocks but I can't remember

Shoes ~ Also possibly peacocks but again I have forgotten

So that is all for today, lately, I have been loving patterned shorts and I hope to purchase more soon.

Thanks for reading, I hope you have a good day.

Milani lipstick - Naturally chic

Hello and good day!

Back on my trip to NYC, one of my purchases consisted of a Milani lipstick.

As we don't have Milani products in England (as far as I am aware) when my eyes fell upon the Milani stand, I was off. My legs couldn't carry me fast enough as I ran (yes I literally ran across the store) to the stand. I was in love. I am such a fan of Milani and if I had it my way I would have bought it all. However, due to lack of space in my luggage, I restrained myself. The lipstick that I chose to purchase was no. 25 - Naturally chic.

This colour is such a beautiful colour and I am addicted to it. The product is moisturizing and the colour lasts for ages. On top of this, it is very easy to apply and great coverage. I couldn't give this product enough praises.

That is all from me, thank you ever so much for reading and I hope you have a great day.

My beautiful H&M dress

Hello, Everybody, I hope you are having a marvelous day!

Finally, some summer weather has arrived in England. The other day or my wonderfully

large shopping trip I purchased this lovely dress. This dress is from H&M and cost £19.99 and I am 

completely in love. 

Firstly the colour. Mint green is one of my favourite colours. I think that it is just

such a pretty colour! Of course, this is what originally caught my eye in the shop.

Secondly the style. My typical dress would be a skater dress and I feel that this style

generally looks good on me. However I decided to step outside my comfort zone a little and try on this style, and I must say that I was surprised to see that I actually liked how it looked on me.

I'm not saying I look the best but I think its looks alright and I like it. The final feature that sold me this dress was the detail. The dress is covered in this stunning lace. I am a sucker for lace. On top of all of this, the bottom of the dress has this little lace fringe sort of thing (sorry I am rubbish at describing things, just look at the picture), and I think that is super pretty too. All in all this dress is perfect and as long as England provides me with a decent summer I shall be getting plenty of use from it.

That is all from me for today!

I hope you have a great day.

NYC

Back on the 5th April 2014, I had the privilege to travel to NYC!

I completely fell in love with the city, more than I had expected, to be honest.
Everything is beautiful there and I had an amazing time.
I must say that it made me super excited for what I hope will be many future travels.
Anyway, today I don't want to waffle on too much but just show you a few snaps.
So here are some photos from the trip ... enjoy!

The Empire state building. 

These reminded me of Monsters inc. and I got very excited.

Stunning view from the Empire State Building.

Me looking tired with a beautiful background.

Thought this looked pretty.

Satisfying our love of pretzels.

NYPD! Coolest people ever.

By the Hudson River.

In the big apple.

9/11 memorial. Very touching. R.I.P


So here are just a few of the hundreds of photos from the trip. I am so grateful that I got the opportunity to go on this amazing trip. I am in love with New York and one day I hope to return.

That is all for today.
Thank you ever so much for reading and have a fabulous day.
