Loose ends

I'm back boo's and I'm excited. Of course I had to start off the year with some fire pictures for the gram and my blog. I was defo feeling myself. I'm loving the lace up jeans trend right now I honestly feel I can live in these jeans. They make a boring outfit so damn sassy  I just can't. I did say I would stay away from Joni jeans and I've been on the hunt ever since....












I'm very particular when it comes to finding jeans that fit right. I have long skinny legs and so the jeans also need to be long and extra skinny. I can't be dealing with all that baggy, bootcut type mess that's not cute. I heard a lot about fashion nova jeans- how they make your bum look, how high waisted they are etc and after Kylie Jenner posted a picture in their dark high waisted ones...Every other haul on youtube I watched for like 3 weeks straight contained Fashion Nova jeans.

I purchased the same ones as my soul sister Kylie and these 'Bandit jeans'... (the other pair will be reviewed in a separate post to come) but these babies I just love. The quality is insane!! They are thick actual denim which I was praying for. They are longgg as in I could fold them up and still rock this look which I find with most online retailers like missguided or asos is a problem. Unless you buy from the tall section 99.9% of the time you'll have jack ups. I'm not here for it.

I did find though that Fashion Nova shipping is pricey. $12 to be exact so if you aren't buying more than one thing it isn't really worth it. But these jeans were defo worth it. I also loved the fact I could still wear underwear with these as the lace up effect on the side only reaches a certain point.

Last but not least, can we talk about this bodysuit? I previously blogged in a pink one from primark (link here) but they released new colours in black and I think Khaki so of course I had to pick up both because they are such staples and for such a good price.. girl why not?

Lessons Learnt

I'm not even going to begin apologizing for my absence its been a crazy last few months. I made the decision to leave my part time job at the makeup store Kiko Milano which I really did love, I changed my hair again ... pretty standard and now I'm switching up the blog because why the hell not?

Word to Kylie Jenner "The year of realising stuff" 


If 2016 has taught me anything it's that nothing is this life is forever. Friends, family, money it all comes and goes. I experienced death for the first time in my 19 years of living and it really hit home for me. I don't want this next year to be the same boring regime - LIFE IS SHORT. Friends that I thought I'd have in my life forever are distant or not even on speaking terms. But that is okay because there is so much more to life.

I used to say to myself that I need to be more consistent with my blog, maybe switch it up to what X, Y, Z  are doing because they've gotten really successful this past couple of months. But why should I have to force what there clearly isn't. I can't put on a glamorous outfit and take pictures for instagram when I never even left my house that day... shade intended lol. 

Next year I'll be taking my time really focusing on myself, my fitness, my health and my blog. My goal is to travel more to at least 3 countries.. not in Europe & document everything! I can't use my job as an excuse anymore so lets see how long this mentality will last me. I have big plans in store and can't wait to take you all with me.

Happy New Year lovelies xo
