Stripes and Polaroids

Recently, I have inquired a lot of stripes. Not sure when this happened or why but I'm not mad about it. As always high waisted jeans are a staple in my wardrobe as well as Doc Martens so I paired the three together for this "French girl takes on London for the weekend" look.

So blooming sunny during this shoot.


Jeans are from ASOS (obvi) and they are my ride or die jeans. I have two pairs in black and one pair in denim. They are beyond comfy and the rips in the knees make them just cool enough. TBH I've worn them to job interviews and no one has realized they have rips in the knees. Deffo consider them a good buy!

Black Jeans are the only things I wear anymore.


Mock necks have taken over my closet. Like when did I become a turtleneck and mock neck girl? Probably when I realized how nicely they cover triple chins and pimples. Well this shirt (although not exact but close) is stripy and mocky so what more do you need.

It was chilly so I paired it with a wool sweater and a wishbone necklace from Garage.


Doc Martens are probably my one staple item when it comes to the fall and winter time. I don't even have snow boots just Docs and thick socks. Their initial price tag is a heart attack and a half but they have gotten me through two festivals, three winters and a lifetime of wear and tear. If you are on the fence about them. Just buy them.

God, even Urban Outfitters hates how hipster I am.


These outfit posts are some of my favorites and I hope you are enjoying them as well. Clothes are a fun way of expressing yourself so like I say about makeup, don't take it too seriously.

Until next time!

XOXO

Cold Weather with a Side of Grey

Fall is awesome; if you live anywhere that is warm all year around. Seriously, those tumblr pics of girls all rocking just a dress, scarf and hat…HOW? It is genuinely cold outside. I swear autumn is just a figment of our imagination because it definitely goes from 75F to 45F in like a week. 

Anyway, this is my attempt to show how I rock a dress and hat with booties (which are my H&M platform black boots that are basically my S.O.).

Look at that sun flare though, au naturalllllll.

Because I am still an unemployed and have a non existent bank account, this awesome long grey dress with quarter length sleeves is from the one and only Forever 21. The creme beanie is also a purchase from Forever 21 because home girl loves to save every dollar she owns.

Stepping Down

Purses seem too grown up for me so I always rock a backpack when heading out. Plus it just makes life easier while running around. TJ Maxx is where I basically buy all my bags and sadly I bought this like 6 years ago but it is still going strong!

Off we go!

Autumn may not really be a season but lets continue to pretend it is because some of the outfits can be pretty cool.

Until next time!

XOXO

A.D.I.D.A.S.


Apparently National Tracksuit Day is a thing. I will neither question or deny this day but in honor of tracksuit day and the Little Mix album "Get Weird" that features a track called A.D.I.D.A.S. (not the company), I figured I would show off my newest start to this blog. My outfit. More particularly the outfit I can't stop wearing.

Look how sporty I am.


ASOS has been my go-to recently, everything from watches to shoes to leggings. Not gonna lie, the jumper was a bit of a punch to my wallet aka $63. But I wear it almost everyday so it has basically paid for itself. I normally wear an 8 or 10 so I bought it in a US 10 so it would be a bit bigger. I have a pretty wide back, shoutout to my athletic self so the arms are bit cropped if I raise my hands. So no waving them in the air like I just don't care.

Mid-photoshoot my jacket took a leap.

Next are these bomb leggings I wear to everywhere and anywhere. ASOS didn't rob me as hard on those for only $35. They are pretty true to size so you are set on buying them online. 

My shoes are old Nike FreeRuns that no longer should count as shoes but I'm a sneaker addict and refuse to let any of them go. "My Name Is…. Please Follow Me @…." tee will basically always be a staple in my wardrobe so big ups to Ashish for creating it.


It is time to accept that athletic wear is coming back into fashion and I should not be looked down upon for rocking leggings and a track jacket on the reg.

Check out the Anti-Agency's work with Adidas. Fashion + Sportswear = Too Hip For Words


In case you missed it, J. Bieb's "Sorry" Music Video took Athletic Wear and made it high fashion.

So ladies and gentlemen, grab your sweats, leggings and tracksuit jackets because now is a time to be alive, with athletic wear. Bless.


Until next time lovely faces! XOXO

Also big ups for Colton, my sister, for taking the photos. Follow her on Twitter.

Nail Varnish of the Week

My 6 year old self freaked out when she saw this color. This was the exact color of my old platform Sketchers. P sure that is where my love of platforms began, in like Kindergarten.

Jeans and Sparkly Blueeeeee!

It is so snazzy, I can't get over it. Look at this very unprofessional blue but who cares cuz I love the way it hits the light.

OPI's "You Blue It" is the color of the week.

Basically, grab this color and go. This took only 3 coats and it dried super fast so #bless.

Stay Fab (and glittery)!

XOXO -M.S.

Nail Varnish of the Week

Feelin' a bit grey with all the finals, and the end being near! So…..

A little grey, a little sparkle. 

It is another Nina's Ultra Pro color (I seem to have a lot of them…?)

This lovely grey is color "Ink-ling" by Nina's. It goes on so smoothly and if you let it dry, it actually makes a wonderful nail color!

So it is safe to say I am in love with this color. #HeartEyesEmoji

Stay Sparkly (with a bit of grey) Babes!

XOXO -M.S.

Nail Varnish of the Week

Every year during the Spring Semester, our uni's activity club holds a Spa Day! So of course I went! It is run by the local beauty school in the area. Not only did I get a facial and a massage but I also got my nails didddddd.

WHAT A VIBRANT PINK! 

I have come to realize that I really love ORLY nail varnishes, even if they don't last long.

It is in the color "Purple Crush"and I'm not kidding, it is insanely bright.

I eventually took it off because it chipped fast but its a really great color to brighten any mood!

Stay Fab!

XOXO -M.S.

Nail Varnish of the Week

I hadn't had my nails done black for quite some time and I really love matte, well, everything. So….

I legit just did them yesterday so this varnish is good for a few days, seeing as it does chip easily.

The varnish is Forever 21's Matte Nail Color and it dries super fast! Which is awesome because you can do stuff faster but they also don't dry completely for sometime. Just a warning.

Obviously, the color is in black and it was super cheap, for $2.80, so that is probably why it chips so fast but whatever.

Overall, it is an awesome varnish to wear for a few days and if you want to look badass and wear matte black, that is the way to do it.

Stay Fab!

XOXO -M.S.

Nail Varnish of the Week

Spring has sprung! Kind of. I was feeling the warm weather and my tan (LOL) so I went to my automatic "summer" color, white.

Whitttteeeee! Ohhh I feel so Hampton's. Do I look tanner already? I wish.

Thank God, Wet n Wild is $0.99 because hello. Yes, this is the second feature of the company. Thanks of making cheap nail varnish.

It is Wet n Wild's "French White Creme" and it went on pretty smooth but it did gain bubbles after some wear and it does change color fast, especially if you dye your hair (like me).

What is up with that pinky? Anyway, overall pretty happy but it does chip quite quick. 

Stay classy.

XOXO -M.S.

Nail Varnish of the Week

Since starting up this weekly blog idea, I have been getting so many varnishes as gifts. It is so lovely considering I am not a fan of buying things for myself, unless that thing is food. This color was given to me for my birthday by Fredrika since she knows I either like obnoxious colors or really neutral colors.

Bam! I decided to welcome Spring with a bit of nakedness. LOL. 

Against my skin tone, it really is just a bit lighter/warmer so it is perfect!

This bomb color is Wet n Wild's Yo Soy. It went on somewhat smooth, a bit thick but that meant less layers so I'm down for it.

When you trying to feel fab but in a nude way, this color is for you!

Stay naked!

XOXO -M.S.

Nail Varnish of the Week: Spring Break Edition

As you may have noticed from my instagram, you will  have seen I was on Spring Break. It was much needed and seriously so much fun! Anyway, I am pretty sure I have worn this color before but whatever, it is a beautiful color!

Doesn't it just scream realizing by the pool and tanning???

This is legit my one of two essie colors. I always feel like their colors are so beautiful but there are plenty of other varnishes that go on a bit better. Somehow I always get bubbles, whatever, still fab.

As stated before it is Essie in "Rock The Boat," the perfect blue with a hint of shimmer.

The boys also really love it, so I don't see why you wouldn't want to rock this color everyday?

Holiday nails are the best nails!

XOXO -M.S.

Nail Varnish of the Week

If you ever want to feel fab for like 3.5 days (that is how long it lasted before it chipped). I was clearly inspired by Lou Teasdale's new nails from Japan. Glitter glitter glitter!!

Seriously, how does one not feel fabulous with sparkly nails?

This was about 5 coats with a clear base coat on the bottom.


Like I did say, it did chip within 3 1/2 days but it was easy to peel off. Sparkles are just so hard to take off so be ready for that feat.

Stay (glittery) fabulous!

XOXO -M.S.

Nail Varnish of the Week

Amanda, being the besets, amazing person she is; she bought me this lovely nail color for completing the full 24 hour of the DanceAThon!

This color was soooo pigmented! It was super thick to put on. I can't tell a lie, it did chip within a day and I eventually had to take it off. But for one night out, these are the perfect nails!

She said she mainly bought it because it was so pretty and perfect for the blog. I can't help but agree. Look at those polka dots!

Poparazzi makes the nail varnish and it is in the color "Razzy Baby." Groovy Baby.

I added a bit of sparkle with simple tape across the nails. The one on the left is OPI's Lilac Glitter and the one on the right is Forever 21's Silver Glitter.

Stay Fab!

XOXO -M.S.
