FUR BARGAIN

Hello Salala people !! Do you by any chance remember my January promises? I said I will not shop and I will stay sober. Well I can't lie to you... those plans went down the drain just after a few days ha.

 Aww well it's February now!!This month is going to be super busy. I have an exam (for the qualifications I do whilst working) , a valentines date and a trip to Brussels with my Manchester gals.

I can't wait! 

Today I am talking about this fur bargain I purchased in Zara. It's so soft and I am in love with the cream colour. Something different from the usual winter black coat. 

The fact that is cropped means I can pair it with my favourite high waisted items.

Buy the look here : 

Find this beauty  HERE only £15.99 from £69.99 

Thank you for stopping by yet again.

NIGHT OUT GLAM

Hello Salala people and welcome back!! Today we are talking about night out glam. From clothes to shoes to make up. Yeap the whole lot!!

What do you usually wear when you go out? When I was in uni it was all about a mini dress and  super platform heels. Now there is more thought process into it. For example, I tend to prefer longer figure hugging pencil skirts and elegant one-strap heels along with a clutch bag.I think that's because my style has matured just a little (I am still 22 guys!!) .I like to expose only one part of the body. So its either , legs, boobs or tummy NOT all at onceeee. 

For today's look I was actually inspired by the one and only Kim K. I got a loose white ASOS top I tied it into a knot and paired it with a black lace bra. This combo is something I will sporting in the summer time with bright coloured lace bras and a good tan (that I will make sureeeee to have;)

Also here I am showing off my new MOTEL ROCKS pencil skirt. Believe it or not I sometimes wear it in work along with a buttoned up shirt and a waist belt.So ladies a pencil skirt is a multi-purpose investment.  

For hair I couldn't decide between a loose behind the ears look or a low ponytail.

In regards to make-up Salala people after loads of attempts and youtube tutorials  I am happy to announce that I have finally learnt how to contour my face! There has been a big buzz over the last year  about  contouring even though its  a trick that make-up artists have been using like forever.  Many girls will pick two different hues of face make-up to define their bone structure. However , I stick to one shade of foundation Rimmel London wake me up (my saviour!!) and then start enhancing my cheek bones  with the darkest shade of the Sleek make-up pallette; I purchased from Boots. For mascara I stick to my favourite Hypnose Doll Eyes from Lancome and for lips I start with a maybelline liner and fill in with my Elizabeth Arden dark lipstick.

JANUARY WISHLIST FROM ASOS

 Hello Salala people. Here I am its only the first week of January and I am already lusting a few (non-discounted) items. What can I say a girl is allowed to dream. I have set myself a limit this month as I spent way toooo much on Christmas shopping. So the list below even though it consists of fairly priced clothing is only a Wishlist girlsss (I PROMISE ha!) 

ASOS £36 find it HERE

 I am in love with this a-line off shoulder baby blue dress mostly because its so versatile. I can be wearing it with killer nude high heels and gold accessories in a night out or even with flat leather sandals and walking along in a Greek Island. 

                                                           ASOS £28 find it HERE

I am in desperate need of a boyish but yet girlie shirt and this one is exactly what I was looking for. I would be tucking it in my favourite high waisted denim jeans or layering it under an oversized jumper.

ASOS £24 find it HERE

Well this front wrap jersey top is sashy but without showing tooo much skin.It will look amazing with white shorts, a blazer and high heels (You can tell I love dressing up for nights out!!)

Thank you for reading

PRINTED SKIRT

Hello Salala people!! Happy New Year hope you have all enjoyed your holidays. I certainly have!!  This was the first Christmas in 3 years that I managed to get time off from work. Whilst I was a student I was working in Selfridges and as a result I had to work throughout the festive season and yes on the most hated day in retail :BOXING DAY. I must admit I appreciate my office based job even more when I think I didn't need to interact with customers going crazy and literally fighting over discounted items. 

 So instead , for the last two weeks I have been going out drinking and eating excessively. But I have decided January will be a detox month . Yeap Salala people with this post I commit myself to a whole month of being 100% sober...(lets see how that goes) . 

Today I wanted to show off one of the skirts I have worn many times now during this autumn/winter. 

 A turtle neck or a jumper along with a printed skirt is one of my go to looks. So girlie,playful and classy all at the same time. 

Used my new selfie stick for these shots by the way ha! 

Skirt : ASOS (now out of stock oops find similar HERE )

Shoes : DUNE (find similar HERE )

Turtle neck : PRIMARK (find similar HERE )

CHRISTMAS SHOPPING OUTFIT

Hello Salala people hope you are all well and as excited as me for the holiday season!! I have been so bad latelyyy. Everytime I have ventured out to buy presents for family and friends I have ended up wanting/lusting and eventually buying  something new for myself!!(oops).We all know December is definitely an expensive time of the year... Aww well. 

So this is what I was wearing yesterday whilst shopping. It was so cold so I paired a cream rollneck from PRIMARK with my all time favourite leopard faux fur coat. I really don't remember where I bought it from and somehow it doesn't even have a label but I will add a link of a similar below. Also rocked some high-waisted shorts from MONSOON and my leather booties from OFFICE. 

Proof I get easily distracted as pictures taken in Topshop changing rooms ..oops again. 

Shorts : Monsoon (find similar HERE )

Rollneck : Primark (find similar HERE )

Coat:unknown (find similar HERE )

Boots : Office shoes (find similar HERE )

Are you done with your Christmas shopping?

THE PERFECT NIGHT OUT LOOK

Hello Salala people hope you are well. I am back north (that's Manchester) visiting family for the weekend. I have been living on my own for a while now so it's really nice to see everyone again.When I walked in the house I realised how much I missed it. Between us I think I had a 'wooow' moment when I opened the fridge and cupboards and saw that it was full with food. The only thing I didn't appreciate as a much is that my old lovely room has now become my big brother's office/gaming area arghhhh ha!

Anyhow enough with me moaning. Today it's all about celebrating the weekend with a killer night out look. Lately my fav 'going-out' outfit is definitely a bralet top , along with a tight fitted pencil skirt and high heels(preferably pointed for an even more feminine look)

I am not a fan of total black looks so I paired this black TOPSHOP bralet and NEXT high heels with my burgundy leather pencil skirt from ZARA. 

In regards to accessories I mostly played with the colour gold.

Click the links below to buy the actual items(or similar) I am wearing today :

High waisted pencil skirt: ZARA, find similar  HERE

Lace bralet top : TOPSHOP , find it here HERE

Pointed high heels: NEXT , find similar HERE

ZARA COAT

Hello Salala people long time no post !! I knowwww my only excuse is that work has been hectic lately. 

If you want more regular fashion updates from me you should follow my instagram account @lwraann as I do update it daily.

In regards to personal stuff I have officially ''survived'' one month completely on my own. I previously mentioned I was offered a new role and thus had to move from Manchester-my hometown for the last 3 years.This move was certainly out of character since I am the girl that is too scared to take chances.But I am so happy I did it!! Being in a new town not knowing anyone is scary initially but I realised that you just need to give it time and put yourself out-there. A good idea for socialising and meeting new people is definitely sports.For example,I joined the local volleyball club!

Anyhow back to fashion stuff. 

I have been looking for the perfect (non-black) coat for a couple of weeks. Without success...yet!! Today I found this Zara coat with fur collar details.However I just couldn't commit to it.What do you think Salala people shall I just buy it and give this 'mad coat search' a rest?!

PINK JUMPER

Hello Salala people ,hope you are well!! I don't recall mentioning it before but in a weeks time I will be moving to Bristol. 

So far I have been  a student living with her family in Manchester worrying about exams and when to go out.Howeverrrrrrr now I am working full time, paying my student loan,saving in to a pension and renting my own apartment.

Yeap apparently I am officially a grown up. Which is crazyyy. 

Anyhow back to fashion now !! 

Today's outfit is all about this pink H&M jumper that you can find HERE.I chose to pair it with an a-line skirt from Primark and my booties from Office Shoes. 

Also added a layer with a white collared blouse from Mango and wore my all time favourite pearls for a even more girlie tone.

Once again no point of tights ,when you still have a summer tan. 

Baby pink (and blue) will be one of the colours that I will be wearing without a doubt through out winter. 

What about you any big changes?

ULTIMATE AUTUMN WISHLIST

Hello Salala people hope you are well!!

Lately after work I tend to go window shopping in town to see all the new AW14 collections.

And guess what I already have a few items in mind that I just need/want/must have

 as my wardrobe is in desperate need of a Summer to Winter 'change-around'.

So lets see what I am lusting.Shall we?

             1. A perfect Camel coat will be a great piece that will get me through all winter. Plus,is going to be a great alternative to the black Zara coat that I always wear.Not sure yet ? Well just imagine how cool it will look with blue skinny jeans,nike trainers,a white shirt and a structured bag.

2.The knitted dress is just perfection!! 

I recently saw Kendall Jenner wearing something similar (here) and I was like I gotta have one.

It will look so fresh with black tights and booties or with pointed flats and an oversized coat.

3.Burgundy high heels.

I have loads of shoes (as every girlllll) however have never owned a pair of burgundy high heels.I want to distance myself from the 'predictable' black this season thus these beauties will be ideal for work 

(and cheeky drinks after 5oclock obviously ha..)  

4. Michael Kors Bag.

Every year I like to invest in a good leather bag.So it didnt take long for this jet set travel toteto be added  on my list.I do prefer structured bags that have a handle and an adjustable shoulder strap for versatile carrying.

Another bonus is that the particular colours means  I can  can even wear it during summer time with white denim jeans.

1.Coat: TOPSHOP £68 find it here

2.Dress: FRENCH CONNECTION £95 find it here

3.Heels:OFFICE SHOES £65 find it here

4.Bag:MICHAEL KORS find it here

FIRST AUTUMN LOOK

Hello Salala people hope you are well!! 

Can you believe that summer is over?? I personally think it went by way too fast. 

On british TV xfactor has started which is basically the countdown to Christmas.

I know what you are thinking wow wow relax its only the start of September ,but still ahah!!

Well I must admit I am excited about creating lovely autumn/winter looks for all of you. 

And guess what we have the first autumn look ready today. 

For the start of this season I will be pairing long coats with high waisted skirts or shorts along with bare legs as I still have a tan to show off ladies (well I hope...)

I am actually desperate to find the perfect Camel coat but until then I just need to settle with this raincoat from Marks & Spencer. I paired it with  Levis shorts ,a simple white tee from New Look and my one strap heels from Zara.

In essence, I paired two elegant items(coat  and heels) with two more casual items (shorts and tee) and it creates a lovely girlie look without being over/under - dressed .

Have a great week Salala people.

More autumn looks to follow.
