My festival style!

Heloooo
Hope you are all well!

So today I am doing a style post for you all! All the photos that I am showing you are from the internet today as the weather is poop and my house is too small to show clothes properly :( I hope you don't mind! 

If your hitting a festival this summer then lucky you, follow these looks, amd if your unlucky enough not to be going to a festival you can still rock these looks as they are casual with a bit of edge! I will show you my festival style in different weather situations :) as you all know, we have a very sunny Britain atm! Hah, as we speak there is torrential rain outside! In the weathers defence it is still 21 degrees Celsius in my room :/ which tbh suck as if you go out in the rain you need a coat but it is too warm to wear a coat! Thats where this post comes in!

So . . .


All of these looks require tons of arm candy and a pair of sunnies, no matter what the weather!

Arm Candy-River Island £10

Feather Bracelets-River Island £6

Chunky Watch-Asos £30

Sunnies-Asos £15

Spike Earrings-Topshop £7.50

Cross Ring-Topshop £8.50



These accessories will make sure you look fab at festival time! Personally I love to concentrate on the arm candy and just add one statement ring and wear one of the spiked earrings with one plain black stud! Add all the accessories to each look!



Outfit 1
Hot Hot Hot

Vest top- River Island £20

Studded Hot Pants- Missguided £12.99 

Wedges-Topshop £175.00

Leather Fringe Bag-Miss Selfridge £45.00


I would tuck the vest into the hot pants for a more put together look, if you are worried about wearing heels add these gorgeous flats!

Sandals-Miss Selfridge £28.00

These are fierce without adding too many straps, you don't want weird tan lines now do you!


Outfit 2
Cool


Jumper- Topshop £38.00


Leggings-Miss Guided £9.99

High tops-River Island £40.00


Neon Bag-Miss Selfridge £15.00

This is the perfect look if it is a little cooler. These high tops will be perfect for giving you a little height but still comfortable with their hidden heel!  The neon bag adds that pop of colour!

Outfit 3
Raining 

Vest-Miss Guided £11.99

Neon Parka-New Look £17.99

Denim Shorts-River Island £25.00

Wellies- Miss Selfridge £25.00

Backpack-Topshop £35.00


When it's raining in the summer here it is usually still quite warm, so you need thinner layers to keep you cool whilst still staying dry! The back pack and wellies dress this look down for that 'I'm with the band' look!

Hope you enjoyed all these outfits! Let me know which one is your favourite!

Thanks for reading beautifuls!

All the best ;)

June Glossy Box!

Hii Guys!

So I would like to start by saying that I have 'figured out' how to keep up to date with my blog :) as I have been neglecting it for aggges!

So I will be uploading a new post every Saturday, and maybe more if I have time! I will be totally honest and say that I prefer to make a video on things but little reviews and such that you don't need a full video for will be on here!

Incase any of you didn't know, this is what a glossy box looks like! You recieve 5 products a month for £9.99 plus p&p. I am subscribed to Glossy Box and the Jolie Box! I try to either upload a video or make a post on each box every month, sometimes I make a video AND write a post! 




So this is what I received in this months box, I was very impressed! I have used most of the products so I will do mini reviews as I go along.

Clean Start By Dermalogica-Full size £12.00

I was very impressed that this 'one item' as usually you could receive these as 3 separate items. In this kit you get a foaming face wash, purifying toner and a matte SPF moisturiser. All are to be used day and night. I have not used these yet so cannot talk about them much but they all smell very nice! If you would like a separate review on this kit let me know :)

BM Beauty Summer Warmth Bronzer- Full size £8.00 for 4g

This is a multi purpose pure mineral bronzer in Summer Warmth. It leaves a lovely shimmer on the skin.


As you can see here. The colour is perfect for my skin tone but I think if you had darker skin and you used more product it could be the perfect colour for you too. This product is very waste full though as when you apply the product to a brush you have to remove a lot of excess product. 

Yves Rocher France Ultra Volume Sexy Pulp Mascara- Full size £16.90 for 9ml

I LOVE this mascara, it makes my eyelashes very long and thick without making them crispy. I am seriously considering buying the full size product I love it that much. I think I'll be doing a review on this separately so I'll leave it there ;) it's just fab!


This is the brush, it's a bristle brush which is the only mascara brush I will use, and has curves which catch every lash. This brush also applies very well to the bottom eyelashes which is sometimes tricky with other mascaras. 

Glossy Box Pro Beauty Blush Brush £15.00

It's an okay brush but I really don't think it is worth £15. It is a goat hair brush which I am not sure about and it really does moult allot, leaving stray hairs on your face. Ummm, an okay brush but I would never purchase it myself.


Vichy Dermablend Ultra Corrective Foundation Cream Stick- Full size £19.00 for 12g

This is a camouflage foundation stick which covers everything. If it can cover my black under eye bags it can cover anything. I love how they give you a few different colours.


I am also considering buying the full size of this too as it is brilliant at covering scars and imperfections.

Thanks for reading guys, I hope you enjoyed. There will be a video on this if you would prefer to which this coming soon to my YouTube channel!

This is my newest video


Please watch, subscribe, like the video, comment and share hahaa :)

I am hoping to reach 300 subscribers on my YouTube channel by my birthday, 5th July, so please help! You are all so amazing!

Thanks guys,

Empties!

Hey Guys!

Hope your all well!

As most of you know I am more of a "youtuber" than a "blogger", so I thought I'd try and do a few things on both!

Sooooo, here is an empties post! I believe that when you have used up the whole product you can make the best reviews on them, yay or nay?!

There is a video accompanying this post if you would like to see what the products look like!


Garnier BB cream
I have the colour light and it is a perfect match for my skin tone. I love this product so much I own around 5 of them! 5? Yeah 5!It offers a very light coverage, it kinda blurs imperfections instead of hiding them but it still leaves your skin looking perfect. It looks very natural and is perfect for the summer time.

Lee Stafford Hair Growth Treatment
This is quite expensive at around £9, as I used this around 6 times. My hair is quite long but I really can't comment on if this product helped to achieve that or not. But if ypu want my honest opinion I would say not to get this and just buy a cheaper alternative like Boots Coconut Hair mask, that is my fav!


The Body Shop Mango Body Butter
Just Fab! If you haven't tried one of these by now, go and get it!

Herbal Essences Split End Protection Cream
This is one of my all time favourite products! I love it so much have 3 back-ups! I would actually cry if they discontinued this. Watch my video for more info :)

Face masks
I picked a few up from primark a while back for 90p each and they are fab! Watch my primark haul to see more on them. They are amazing on your skin and great for a little pamper session.

Primark Facial Cleansing Wipes
I use these for everything, except for taking my make-up off, hahaa, unless I am stuck and need to use them! They are cheap and you always need wet wipes so I would recommend them for every day life :)

Tajj Micheller Water
An amazing cleanser that takes away even water proof mascara sooooo easily. I have quite normal dry and sensitive skin which is sometimes qily, gaaah skin! And this is so gentle it doesn't effect my skin at all and my skin thanks me for using this in the morning! I'm not too sure if I will buy this again as it is hard to get hold of! But I will definitely be getting another micheller water cleansing product!

Soap and Glory Flake Away
I will repurchase this for the rest of my life! It leaves your skin the softest you have ever felt it! Perfect before fake tan and just for a little pick me up! Another of my all time favourites!

Thanks for reading guys!

Please check me out on youtube, instagram, twitter and keek! Same name as always

Lots of Love

Katie
