My OOTD: End of College

Image
Today I picked up a parcel from the Royal Mail and then went straight to College to revise for my two exams that I had soon after and then I could go home and since I've had all my assessments now, I won't need to come back to College anymore, which is great because I have my summer holidays from now on! But it is also a bit sad because I've met some people there that I really got to love and I'll be sad not seing them on a daily basis any longer. Still, the weather is a bit weird, since I felt like it got warmer today but then again the wind is just so strong that sometimes I couldn't even walk because I would fall over or the wind would push me back, most of the time I couldn't see where I am going because of my hair that was just in my face all the time. But I made it, and I hope that I won't need to leave the house anymore today. I did however go for more of a summery outfit because I already felt bored of wearing jeans and a jumper all the time. ...

Courgette Pasta | Recipe

Image
Today I wanted to upload an outfit post for you but by the time I got home it started raining terribly, and the wind is just unreal! And since I am not too keen on taking outfit pictures indoors, I decided to show you what we've just cooked. It was delicious and I could eat more but I know that my stomach won't like it. The recipe is really simple and you don't need that many ingredients. INGREDIENTS ( 2 portions) -1 courgette -oregano or Italian herbs -3  cloves of garlic -some olive oil -spaghetti for two people -salt, pepper STEPS 1) First of all you probably want to start boiling water for the pasta and then just throw it in and let it cook until it's just the way you like it most. 2) In the meanwhile, chop up the courgette into little, thin pieces. 3) Crush the garlic cloves and add them to the courgette pieces. 4) Then, add the herbs and put olive oil in a big pan. 5) Make sure you cook the courgette for about 15 mi...

My OOTD: Black Mesh And Velvet

Image
It's a pretty awesome day today again, but since it is windy I decided not to go for a dress or skirt. I wore my high waisted skinny jeans, with a transparent black lacey-velvety top, plus my trench on top of that. My leopard bag and leather flats were also part of today's outfit and I feel like every outfit I'm wearing has those two elements in it. Whoopsie. I look ridiculously small in this picture since Eryk took the photos from above, so sorry for that :D trench coat - Pimkie skinny jeans - Bershka black mesh and velvet top  - Dorothy Perkins leather flats - Lasocki leopard tote - FOSSIL And as you can tell, the top is really see through so I basically had the coat on all the time. This day was kind of strange because first Eryk had to leave early to sort out some documents and then I left too to buy a dictionary for my exam on Friday. Then we met up while I was waiting for my friend Mhoraig because we wanted to meet. We are so rubbish at me...

May Favourites | Beauty

Image
I can't believe that the last week of May already starts tomorrow! It's totally crazy how time flies and I feel like I haven't achieved anything nice yet. I seem to be so busy lately but then again I don't get anything out of my efforts. And time still flies. For today's entry I wanted to show you my beauty favourites of this month like I usually do towards the end of each month. Those are the 5 products of this month:  The first one on the list is the Malibu Fast Tanning Oil. I have bought it some weeks ago and have only used it last week for the first time. If you don't know it then I recommend you go to a shop, find it and smell it. I am totally in love with this smell and if there is perfume that smells like this - I NEED IT. Well, the smell is a very summery one to me. It is a typical tanning oil smell in my opinion - coconut and vanilla like I'd say. It is amazing and I wish I could use it every day, but the weather in Scotland is ...

My OOTD: Monochrome

Image
I woke up to see a very cloudy sky and was immediately disappointed that I could not tan this morning. And since the weather didn't get better throughout the day, I had to wear something warmer than yesterday, and here's what I chose. I thought it was pretty plain but still a bit rocky and cool, so I guess I might wear this outfit more often now. Sorry for those not so fancy photos in a rather uncool location, I couldn't be bothered going out in this weather again. faux leather jacket - Pimkie crochet jumper - H&M skinny jeans - Bershka tote - FOSSIL leather flats - Clarks What I liked most today is probably my hair that turned out pretty nicely I think, even though it was not the easiest to do with my hair. I wore half of my hair up in a braided bun and half down, that all got tangled in the wind, but nevermind. My nail polish is Hanover Square by Nails Inc. So, what do you think? The weather can't make up its mind and it starts to ann...

My OOTD: Kind Of A Spring Outfit

Image
The weather today was so confusing that I didn't even know what to wear. In the end I decided to wear my faux leather jacket and my winter boots because it was raining, but it didn't seem to be too cold so I went for shorts and a jumper. pink jumper - Forever21 denim shorts - Forever21 faux leather jacket - Pimkie tights - Primark tote - FOSSIL leather boots - Clarks On my way to College it was pretty cloudy and windy but when I left College I met up with Eryk and it got so hot on the bus that you could get a tan after some time I think. I even took off the jacket and went home wearing the jumper only.  Also, Eryk got me the new Innocent Bubbles drink which he has seen before and I didn't yet so I#'ve been sipping it now for some minutes. I'm off to have a snack and my dose of antibiotics for now. -Olivia ~19.05.2015~

My OOTD: Sunny Day Out In Town

Image
Today we got up pretty early, went to the shop to grab some quick food and then we took the bus to town to enjoy and not to waste such a sunny day. We just had a stroll around the city centre, a lot of fun and I am sad that the weekend is nearly here and I'll be working denim jacket - Levi's pink jumper - Forever21 jeans - H&M shoes - VANS bag - FOSSIL My head is always getting so flat when I'm wearing a ponytail, because my hair is too heavy. And I look weird. I love those two! The vlog will be up soon here: VLOGS Make sure you watch it so that you see more of today's cool footage! -Olivia ~15.05.2015~
