Lipstick and Liner.

This is just a short post to show you how I've just rediscovered lip liner and I'm not going to lie its making my life! I recall people often saying you only used lip liner if lipstick bled into the creases around your mouth. But in all honestly its made my lipstick application so much easier, I get the perfect defined line over my cupids bow and it doesn't smudge the same either when I'm putting it on.

I tend to wear lipstick a lot on my blog it just makes me feel so much more ready for the world, though I rarely wear it heavily in public as I used to be worried about what people would think but since using lip liner I'm just much more confident with it all. I mean it doesn't go over my cupids bow so I know I pretty much have the shape I want, though I have to admit I don't wear this colour all that much generally because of how bright it is ( it doesn't show up too well with my web cam, sorry!) It's a Kate Moss for Rimmel and the colour is Rossetto Rouge, and my new lip liner is from Barry M as they seem to be the only make up brand that does strong coloured liners I also bought it in a red as well which I will show you on another post soon. I'm a little obsessed with Barry M at the moment in the last few weeks I've bought a bright blue mascara (which is amazing!) a pale blue polish with iridescent shimmer in, a new red lipstick and finally a blusher. I completely blame Superdrug for having it all on offer recently!

Also how do you like the picture layout I found a really awesome site which puts your images into columns (a few bloggers use it for instagram including Lily Melrose, which is where I found the link) So I'm definitely thinking about using it more as I really like it! Also like to say sorry about all the posters behind me, I'm in my room back home and I'm currently slowly but surely taking down my posters but I 'm getting a bit emotional over them as some have been up since I was 15! And yes you can spot Robert Pattinsons head over my shoulder I was and still am a massive fan girl for the Twilight saga and Pattinson!

I'll owe it all to you, my little bird.

Sleeveless shirt: Primark. Long sleeved top: Dorothy Perkins. Necklace: Primark. Skirt: Dorothy Perkins.


Finally another outfit post sorry its taken so long and these pictures are rubbish, I thought I'd try somewhere else in my uni room to take them but they just don't work well against my door! So I'll be sticking with the corner next to my window from now on. So this is an outfit I stuck on to go and hand in some work and meet up with my support tutor to spend an hour helping me with a few units of work I have at the moment.

So over all this is a comfy and simply look, I've also not worn this shirt since the summer but I'm so happy that I've worked it into my colder weather wardrobe ( I won't say winter because I wear most of my clothes all year round) the only downside to the shirt is it pulls across my chest one the buttons but I don't really mind. This skirt is becoming a staple and being worn to death so you'll have to deal with it being in a lot of posts! Also from taking these picture I realise I really need a haircut my fringe is getting so long again, hopefully it will last until next weekend when I'm home to get it trimmed.

Yet again my title comes from and Ed Sheeran song, I'm sorry but I love him I'm afraid and true love lasts a lifetime (he just hasn't realised it yet) also anyone who went to Plus London Two please let me know if you have pictures with/of me as I have none and really want to get my post up about it in the next week or so! I promise this is the final thing PLEASE keep "liking" me on the company mag comp lets get a plus size into the finals, YEAHHH! The link is here.

You and I ended over U N I.

I'll try and keep this as short and sweet as possible because I'm supposed to be doing a whole list of other things right now! I bought this lovely little top from Primark this week for a fiver which I don't think is too shabby the only thing being that its pretty see through not that I mind all that much! It's also got an adorable scalloped edges on the sleeves and bottom though it does roll up slightly but I do't mind at all. I wore to pop to uni to hand in a project with this dress over which I bought last Christmas in the Evans sale. I think the collar of the top peeping out give a whole new lease of life to the dress and the necklace is like a little hand mirror which I got off a friend for Christmas as she knew how much I've been after one!

I just slapped on a bit of bright pink lippie on so there was a hint of colour to the outfit and my face. I haven't worn my hair like this since the beginning of September so I thought I'd give it ago tonight I wish I wore it like this more as its great for when my hairs just annoying me but I don't want a ponytail swishing around behind my head! I'm also trying to decide what to wear to Ed Sheeran on Friday night (yes I'm VERY excited) so I hope you all look forward to my probably awful pictures of him at the gig! (also this is what my post title is about I'm listening to his album on repeat in preparation!)

Now its time for a group pizza night and giggles with the girls from uni but just before I leave, did anyone else join in the #plussizechat on twitter last night? I actually found it so much fun and it was great to see that so many people agree with you!

Strawberries taste how lips do.

The title of this post relates to another ever so lovely song by Ed Sheeran called Little Bird really do YouTube it and have a listen! And yes here I am finally with and outfit post, which isn't exactly brilliant considering this my all time favourite skirt and at some point today the button popped off and I have no clue as to where it or the original is, looks like I'll be safety pinning it in the future.

Anyway on to what I'm wearing, the blouse and skirt are both from Dorothy Perkins and the skirt I've basically been wearing none stop since I bought it in June I'm hoping it'll keep me going well into the colder months! My cardigan is from a charity shop in my local town and has some really cute detailing embossed down the sides where the buttons and button holes are. The tights that are just seen are from Peacocks last year and I wore them from October right up until march and there still going strong as well as being pretty warm and comfy!

Time to talk about my minimal jewelry and make up. The necklace I bought recently from Primark and I've had lots of comments from people telling me how nice it is and whether it was vintage or not, so it must look more expensive than the pound it cost me, I also got some earrings which are the same style though I do not plan to wear them together! My lipstick is Kate Moss for Rimmel in 02 and its probably the brightest colour I own so I tend to keep the rest of my make up pretty bland so I don't look OTT. I'm also getting into nail art a lot more though all I can really do is dots right now but I'm happy with that.

Now I have found a remotely okay place within my room to take pictures I hope to get more up soon! Have any of your bought into the Kate Moss lipsticks?

Monday Mugshot, Week 4.

1. Just me here wearing my new lipstick after what feels like a very long day at uni. The lippie itself is one of Kate Mosses new ones for Rimmel I actually bought two of them a deep pinky colour and a more wearable coral I'm now planning on buying the red from the collection as I love the colours and how well they seem to stay so far.

2. Finally beginning to feel ever so slightly more settled at uni now, classes are starting I have more of a routine and a nice little group of friends. The weeks don't seem to drag quite the same as that first week did which is good I guess.

3. It seems to be cooling down again!!! I can wear a jumper without dying... though as always I seem to be the one melting in my lectures and seminars? I think I must just have a ridiculous high body temperature all the time! but its definitely more long sleeved weather than vests now, which in my opinion is bloody good news.

4. I need to get back into outfit posting and such more! I have a few little bits to show you I just have the issue of finding somewhere to take them, I've managed to half drag in one of my new friends called Nicola to take my pictures ( with her fancy pants camera, which she offered to use) but until then I may have to do it in my mirror!
