Emma Stone’s transformation from the sweet and innocent girl that moved to Los Angeles to pursue an acting career to Hollywood’s latest it girl it incredible. She is one of few people that can pull off being a blonde, brunette and a redhead. She’s even got Andrew Garfield on her arm. Things can’t get any better for Emma Stone. I’m not sure she can put a foot wrong. &nbs...

style icon - emma watson

In the past 5 years since Emma Watson finished filming the Harry Potter series, she has gone through a huge change in her fashion choices. She made dramatic choices like cutting her hair into that cut pixie cut and wearing bold red lipsticks on the red carpet. She has become a Hollywood star, only emphasised by her appearance at the Oscars this year. She is the same age as me and possibly because of this and the fact that we are both from the south of England has meant that in recent years she has become my biggest fashion icon. I draw...

trends - aztec fashion

A few years ago clothing and accessories with Aztec patterns became oh so fashionable. I presumed it would be a trend that died out quickly despite the beautiful patterns, amazing colours and the feeling of being in a foreign place every time I wore an item of clothing with an Aztec print on. A few years later I still love Aztec prints. These are some of my favourite high street items this season.  1. Dress - $78.69 - http://www.asos.com/Band-of-Gypsies/Band-of-Gypsies-Smock-Dress-in-Bright-Aztec-Print/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=3768032&SearchQuery=aztec&Rf-700=1000&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=204&sort=-1&clr=Pinkmulti 2....

work wear

Sometimes it can be difficult to balance out chic and fashionable with the business attire dress code that most people in office jobs have to wear to work. I have just recently started a new job in insurance and was told that I had to wear business attire to work. So I went on a hunt for fashionable business clothes. This is what I wore to work this week. Monday On Monday I wore a black skirt with thick tights, (got to stay warm) and a white high necked shirt. I paired this with a statement necklace to make it a bit more chic and...

mac makeup tutorial

Over the past few years there have been makeup trends that I have been dying to try but somehow I’ve just never got the hang of it. The smokey eye, the bright red lip, liquid eyeliner with the flick, all trends for some reason look amazing on my favourite stars but I just can’t replicate that look. Recently I have also been considering a career in makeup artistry, but I can’t commit to going back to study at the moment. So I booked myself into one of the makeup tutorials at the MAC counter at my local department store so that I could...
