Grammy's


Amazing. Flawless. Stunning. Perfection...


The Barbadian beauty looked so sophisticated in red at this years Grammy Awards. Her custom dress by Azzedine Alaia was a rare look for Rihanna, worn with bright lipstick and pretty ombre curls. I've never really been Rihanna's biggest fan, especially in the fashion stakes but after seeing her in this beautiful emsemble.. wow. I am obsessed with the way this stunning dress just flows behind her as she looks effortlessly gorgeous. Of course, this is Rihanna, so she has to be a little daring showing flesh in a sheer panel under her bust and back. I can't fault her look at all. Best Dressed of 2013 for me.

BAFTA's

I've been a little disappointed with Anne Hathaway this past awards season, but I was impressed with her gorgeous dress at this years BAFTA's. Dressed in Burberry, the black polka dot maxi showed her amazing figure with a pop of bubblegum lipstick emphasizing her beaming smile. Whilst I love her look, I would have loved to have seen her in some colour. Sure, monochrome is a big trend for S/S 13, but I feel as though she is just playing safe this season. Still, she looked stunning and her pixie crop is really starting to grow on me!

Winter White

Didn't think I'd ever say this sentence, but I'm blogging from the cast room at work. My friend said to me the other day; "you know when you do something or get something and you just have to blog about it?!" Well no, I didn't get that feeling until now. I went out on my lunch break to buy some food.. I did manage to get some food but I also returned with a new jumper from h&m - oops! The white cable knit jumper will go perfectly with my leather leggings and black ankle boots with a chunky heel (also h&m!) and it only cost me £14.99!

NTA's

I loved her in the jungle and I love her on the catwalk. Ashley Roberts stuns at this years NTA's in a flawless white gown by Rachel Gilbert which hugs her slim figure showing off her curves. The simple, chic gown is perfect for her with her glowing tan and loose waved blonde hair. Worn with a natural make up palette she tops my best dressed for the NTA's. (Although it wasn't difficult.. the standards were very low this year I thought!) My only criticism? I would have loved to of seen this look with a pop of red lipstick to complete the look!

SAG Awards

Nina looked absolutely stunning in a floor length gown by Ellie Sab at this years SAG awards. Teamed with a Judith Lieber clutch, Jimmy Choo shoes and Neil Lane jewels. The gorgeous Vampire Diaries actress wore her hair tied back showing off the sheer lace detailing across the back in a flirty, yet classy way. Why haven't I noticed her before?  My best dressed for this years SAG awards.




 

Pay Day treat.

ASOS, £20
Over Christmas and new year I have been working like crazy. My lovely month of over Christmas was gone and I was absolutely worn out by the time I went back to studying. However, it was all made worth it when I received my pay check, and what with some money I had received as gifts for my birthday last month I went straight out and brought myself a brand new windows 8 laptop... one word... Incredible! I was a little apprehensive about spending so much money on a laptop, and having heard mixed reviews on windows 8 I wasn't keen at first. It didn't take much persuading though when I saw the HP pavilion sleek book in a gorgeous bright red colour. I'm not ashamed to say that I've been on it all day and it is awesome! I absolutely love windows 8 and all the apps I can download and use on here.. definitely worth the £399 that it cost. I would highly recommend this product, and the service in PC World was great too! Overall, a very successful shopping trip.

Of course I couldn't spend all that money on a new laptop without a case to go with it.. hello ASOS! I'd seen this a while back and fell in love with it instantly. £20 soon turned into £18 with a fantastic 10% off and I can't wait for it to arrive! (still a little gutted I missed the 25% off a few weeks back though!)

Aztec



I thought it was about time for a new phone case, after all mine was completely battered! It had cracks and scratches all over it and would not of protected my iPhone at all.. defeats the point of a case surely?! One of my friends had an amazing tribal print case and I searched everywhere for it before coming across this bright and bold Aztec print case from Amazon. I love the beautiful bold colours, just in time for summer. and it feels silky smooth. Definitely worth the £3.99 I paid for it! #bargain
