Channelling some ultra goth vibes right there.
Ive also noticed the '90's tattoo choker' coming back in and I really want one , I Just don't know if thats going a tad too far!

Chokers
I just feel like they're everywhere at the moment , and i kind of love the grunge vibe they give, buttt the ones i wanted just haven't hit the shops yet , therefore it was time for a good ebay trawl and guess what i found !? Possibly the prettiest, extremely cliched infinity choker. Just bloody look at it , how pretty (and only a fiver - bargain)

A woman with out lipstick is no lady..
Anybody that knows me will understand that over the past few months i have become an absolute lipstick FIEND. I love them I've completely fell hard for them (and became a liiiiiittle bit of a lipstick snob while I'm at it) I just think they're a fantastic way of looking like a lady. Personally I've found I prefer matte lipsticks and therefore lip care is essential because holy hell they really dry your lips out.
For everyday I tend to lean towards carmex for lip care , a little bit less oily than vaseline, and I love the tingle. For when i'm wearing lipstick I stick Macs prep + prime on and although i can say it's pretty good I really wouldn't mind some suggestions on alternative as i find it a little bit greasy.
I tend to lean towards MAC products in general and for lips theres no exceptions my collection so far includes :
- Please Me (Matte) - great summer/spring colour and goes perfectly with girly outfits for me
- Russian Red (Matte) -probably my favourite - its the stereotypical bright red lipstick that i just love
- Diva (Matte) -great winter lipstick and very much in with the kind of goth vibe thats going on right now without being too extreme its a dark rich red colour
-Up the Amp ( A welcome birthday addition from the collection)- This ones not matte , and i regularly can put it on without a primer , its quite creamy , i'd say its a more extreme version of please me. Sassy
I also bought a topshop lip bullet in bewitched as an alternative to diva for this seasons vamp look. It's bang on trend although it is pretty dark which is intimidating and definitely not for everyday. The only thing is , I just don't feel that the colour lasts that long, it wipes off way too easily !?

Coat and Boots
There'll be many posts of what i managed to get over christmas, sales and otherwise but i thought i'd kick it off with 2 of my favourite christmas gifts!
I'll begin with my coat. I'd been looking for a beautiful oversized masculine coat for so long and although my mum said she would treat me to one of the topshop beauties I was still a little bit hesitant as I wasn't really sure on my style. Then lo and behold , I was browsing the urban outfitters sale (forever in the sale racks) when I came across this navy blue sparkle and fade beauty, reduced from £130 to £30 (erm WOW!) plus I got student discount on top bringing it to a grand total of £27. Although I wasn't too keen on a double breasted jacket to begin with , I really couldn't say no and now I'm in love with it! ( My mum offered to buy it for a christmas present too - woo!)

My boots were my main birthday present since I feel like the girl who has everything. Ive been looking for a pair of Chelsea boots for so long now and my mum knows how much I love my Doc Martens so treated me to these Kensington Chelsea Boots, super comfy and super shiny!

These boots were made for walking
Doc Martens. Iconic. Beautiful. Original.
My mum bought me a pair of these almost 2 years ago, and despite them looking pretty much new here I've wore them a lot. They go with anything, i can shove them on with jeans , leggings , dresses and they still make me feel that little bit more rock 'n' roll, I even wear them to work (I work in nandos) and they make me feel 100x cooler than I am. Recently we went to London and my friend was adamant he hated docs and said they were ugly- by the time we left he had been converted by my constant wearing of them and even admitted he might get some himself! They're comfy and i've never had a bad day in them, I really can't sing their praises enough, if the day ever comes that they fall apart I'll instantly replace them. I also love what the whole brand represents and this brings me on to my pet peeve - this whole new fake , imitation craze thats going round (primark you're guilty here). I know I sound like a brand snob, I'm really not, I love a good primark buy as much as the next person, I just don't think that it's ok to rip off another brands hard work and image and almost lower the value of such hard work, I really don't. I also really dislike bright pink docs (real or otherwise). Anyways, rant over , beautiful boots forever on my feet.
