Hi everyone! Today I will be doing the shopaholic tag! Hope you all enjoy it!
1. Would you consider yourself a shopaholic?
Yes, I really enjoy shopping and love the aspect of buying new fashions and makeup etc.
2. How would you classify your style?
Classic and comfortable! Quite edgy- Studs etc. I also wear a lot of khaki! I love to shop the trends as well, but who doesn't?
3. What store can you not leave without buying at least one thing?
H&MH&MH&MH&MH&MH&MH&MH&MH&M!!!!!!
I can spend so much in there and I never regret buying any of it!
4. Where do you find the best deals?
I guess i'd have to say Asos or New Look maybe. They both have sales on all the time and quite often they'll have 20% off which is great! I also love feelunique for great deals on makeup and hair products.
5. What designer are you willing to splurge for?
I don't really buy designer clothing, but I did buy a dress from Holister once, which was £50 reduced to £10, which is such a great deal but I probably wouldn't have paid any more for it! I 'splurge' on makeup quite often, especially Benefit and Urban Decay!
6. Do you have a go-to shopping outfit?
Jeans, ankle boots and a light jumper. You don't want too many layers, as it can get quite hot. I like to be comfortable while i'm shopping because you have to do a lot of walking.
7. What is your guilty pleasure? (Not including makeup)
Crop tops and hair accessories/ jewelery. I once went crazy buying hair bows.. I probably have about 50 now....
8. What is one staple clothing piece you cannot live without?
Camisoles. I have them in every colour you could imagine! My favourite ones are the New look ones, they're only about £2.50, which is amazing!
9. What is a trend you hope never goes out of style?
Lace and Dip hemmed clothing. I have bought so many lace tops over the last couple of years, they're so pretty and are perfect for summer! I also have quite a few dip- hemmed garments, I especially love dip hemmed tops as they are perfect for wearing with leggings.
10. What trend did you love that passed way to quickly?
Animal print- It was so popular last summer! It comes back every so often, as do most trends, so you can still pull it off! I also feel as though pastels are only ever in fashion every spring, which is annoying as they're really flattering!
11. Who is your fashion icon?
Demi Lovato- For her edgy look.
Selena Gomez and Bridgit Mendler- They pull off the layered look better than anyone!
Bethany Mota AKA Macbarbie07 - She shops at H&M so I feel that our styles are quite similar. When I watch her youtube hauls and videos I sometimes notice that she has the same top or dress etc. as me! I also love that she is always wearing really bright, girly things!
I hope you enjoyed this tag! Who's your style icon? Do you have a favourite place to shop? Let me know in the comments section below!

Selena Gomez Come and get it Makeup Tutorial!
Hi everyone! Today I have done a Selena Gomez inspired makeup tutorial! It was inspired by the make up she wears in her new music video 'Come and get it'. I also did a similar hairstyle to hers. You can recreate it yourself by doing a middle parting and then creating a french braid on each side of the parting. I then curled my hair, to give it more volume like Selena's in the video!
Products Used:
Moisturiser
Eyeshadow primer
17 BB cream- light
Benefit Erase paste- light
Maybelline fit me concealer- 15
17 Bronzing palette and Instant glow bronzer
Bourjois little round pot blush- Lilas D'or
Benefit Fine one one
Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette
17 Eyebrow pencil
Maybelline Colour 24hr tattoo- Permanent taupe
Dark brown pigment eye shadow
Eyeliners- Brown, black, silver, gold and white
17 Lip gloss
No7 Lip gloss- Marshmallow
Benefit They're Real! Honest!
1. Put a small amount of bb cream to the back of your hand and mix it with your moisturiser
2. Next, apply eyeshadow primer. Take your favourite concealer and apply under your eyes to cover dark circles under your eyes.
3. Using a flat eyeshadow brush, apply Maybelline colour tattoo in Permanent taupe to your eyelid. Then take a liner brush and combine Busted and Blackout from the Urban Decay Naked 2 palette and apply it along your top lash line, winging it out towards the end of your eyebrow.
4. Apply a dark brown pigment colour over the top of the eyeshadow on your lash line. Next take the eyeshadow colour Chopper to your crease using a crease brush.
5. Using your fingertip, apply Foxy to your browbone and next to your inner corners of your eyes and apply Bootycall to the inner corners, this will make your eyes appear brighter and more open.
6. Draw a line of black pencil eyeliner under your bottom lash line and connect it to your winged liner. Blend it out with a liner brush. Next, apply a white eyeliner around the inner corner of your eye and continue the line next to your winged liner, for a more precise look. Blend it out with an eyeliner brush.
7. Finally apply a gold or silver eyeliner to the inner corner of your eye and blend it out. Set it using a white shimmery highlighting powder.
8. Apply your favourite black mascara. I used Benefit's They're real, as it gives the illusion of false eyelashes.
9. Take Benefit's fine one one and apply it to your cheeks. Alternatively you can use a coral blusher and a highlighting powder.
10. Sweep highlighter along your cheekbones, the bridge of your nose, your cupids bow and your chin. Then apply bronzer under your bottom lip to make lips appear fuller. Lightly contour your face for a warm glow.
11. Finally apply a light peachy pink lipgloss.

Springspiration: Ombre Lips
Welcome to my new spring blog mini series called Springspiration (Like spring and inspiration put together; Springspiration, get it?). So for today's Springspiration I have decided to show you my way of doing Ombre Lips, they are very wearable and are a great fashion accessory to go with any outfit!
You will need: Two lipstick colours of your choice, lip brush
Step 1. Apply the darker shade of lipstick to your top lip and the lighter to your bottom lip.
Step 2. Apply the lighter shade of lipstick to the bottom half of your top lip and the darker shade to the upper half of your bottom lip. Then blend the two colours using a lip brush.
