Red Lipstick, All On The Paper







Top: Topshop 
Skirt (braces attached): H&M
Jacket: Primark
Scarf/ Tights/ Boots: New Look
Bag: La Moda


Today was date day with my lovely boyfriend Craig and we decided to go a jaunt into Glasgow City Centre. He was out looking for a suit and I was just looking for whatever I could get my hands on basically! Typical!
The weather was obviously up to it's usual tricks with dark clouds looming above however, I decided to be brave and risk no hood. To be fair, I have hardly any jackets with a hood on them and I'm not a massive jumper wearer so my warm leather jacket it was.

Got this cute skirt with braces attached when I was in London with my Mum a while ago on sale for like £7 - absolute steal! Really love it. I think that the dark grey keeps it quite understated even with the 'LOVE IS HARD' writing all across it. I wanted to highlight the braces and so opted for this super soft top from Topshop. These burnout style tee's are everywhere at the moment and a great investment. I'm looking to get them in a few colours as they are handy to throw on with jeans.

Needed some tights today as it is definitely not sunny enough to go bare legs! Plus the fact I am constantly freezing so it's just not worth it! Got these boots at Christmas time to get me through and have finally pulled them back out since the sunshine has been and gone. 

I just bought this bag from La Moda and I am absolutely in love with it! I am a big bag person and this is certainly a big bag! I hate trying to cram things into a tiny bag, what is the point when you can get beauts like this for amazing prices! Studs have been massive this year and I still don't see them disappearing any time soon. This also ticks onto the monochrome trend, I personally think this is a classic piece that I will get lots of use out of.




Foundation: Maybelline Fit Me 115/ Bobbi Brown SPF 15 Porcelain
Elizabeth Arden Pencil Liner
Brows: HD Brows
Blusher: MUA 


Today's look was unfortunately done by hand i.e foundation, as I washed my brushes last night - absolute nightmare of a task! - and I was still waiting on them drying this morning. Went for a classic liquid liner look with a slight cat flick at the end to open up my eyes. Just got the HD Brow kit and was so excited to use it! I could go out without any make-up on as long as the brows are done! Will review my HD Brows soon and let you know my thoughts! I never had any contour today again due to lack of brushes! Decided to add a statement lip to add colour to my overall outfit as well as distract from my lack of make-up expertise today!


Hope you like this look!
