Where did she get that #2

Shocking stuff this Saturday on X-Factor...Caroline Flack ditched her favourite short, shorts and was wearing a skirt!!!

She looked so good and has actually stolen my outfit choice for my bday night out (bitch!) which was a military shirt and leather skirt! I may have to modify my outfit slightly now though as the skirt Caroline was wearing looked incredible and definitely tops my primarni special!!!

You can get the skirt from Zara here for £59.99 http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product/uk/en/zara-neu-W2012/269188/827445/QUILTED%20LEATHER%20SKIRT and her military shirt was from Miss guided for £22.99 http://www.missguided.co.uk/amie-military-shirt

What did you think of her outfit?

Feb Faves


NB: I wrote this a couple of weeks ago but never posted due to no internet for a while but here it is anyway...better late than never ay?!!!

My first ever favourites post for you today...hope you enjoy! I love reading others favourites...probably because I'm just a bit nosy though! What have you been loving for the month of February?

From Left:
Real Techniques Stippling brush
: I brought this from boots a couple of weeks ago and I have to say at first I wasn't keen as it seems a lot smaller than my ELF powder brush, which I usually use for my liquid foundation, however now I have got used to it I love it...it really does give that airbrushed effect which you just cant achieve with your fingers!

Revlon matte lipstick in Pink Pout: I have been loving matte lips this month
which is a change for me but this colour is gorgeous and suitable for both day and night.

Natural Collection blush in pink cloud: This is my 2nd natural collection blush and I have to say for £1.99 they are amazing...this is a really pretty colour and although the packaging isn't great the actual product I find to be really nice especially for fairer skin tones.

Revlon Photo Ready foundation: This for me is an amazing foundation. The price is not ridiculous at about £12 a bottle, it gives fantastic coverage, it gives a lovely glow to the skin without being oily and the packaging is really nice with a pump to dispense the product so you don't waste any. What more can I say, this isn't the first time I have purchased this and definitely wont be the last!

Simple clear skin oil balancing moisturiser: The moisturiser is great for those of us with oily skin...I suffer from very oily skin and this leaves my skin soft and matte and is a great base for my foundation.

Lady Million by Paco Rabanne perfume: My fiance brought this for me for V day and I LOVE it! next time your in boots I urge you to go have a sniff you wont be disappointed!

Barry M Nail paint in Strawberry Ice cream: For me this is the perfect pastel pink for my nails...very feminine and girly but not too Barbie-esque!


Spring is definitely on its way here in England...I cant wait till the end of the month when the clocks go back and we start having lighter evenings...also I'm having a bit of time off work around Easter so I'm looking forward to that too.

I have been mega busy lately due to the fact that my fiance and I have finally set a date for our wedding so have been looking at venues...exiting!!! More on that soon!

Have a great week,
Love Bri. x

Where did she get that?!

Do you ever see a celeb in an amazing outfit and wonder "Where did she get that?!" Well I'm starting a new little feature on my blog entitled exactly that! I will pick out a celeb who has been in the papers or on TV recently and try to track down exactly where they brought their outfit from. It will generally be things I would like myself and fingers crossed mainly high street stuff. If you have any requests for outfits you have spotted then let me know and I will do my best to find them!

To start off I have picked a few of my favourite looks from the past couple of weeks...

Im loving...grey and neon

Neons are going to be big this spring/summer and I'm not usually a fan. They can be hard to wear and I don't think they are flattering for my (pale) skin tone! However I am most definitely warming to them and particularly when they are teamed with the colour grey.
I don't think I have the confidence to go all out with these acid yellow skinnys from Topshop, but I think a neon accent in the form of a clutch bag or belt would definitely spice up the grey speckle t-shirt dress which I seem to wear nearly every other day at the moment!


1. Grey speckle T-shirt dress, Topshop, 2. Acid Yellow skinny jeans, Topshop, 3. Grey and pink Brogues, Topshop, 4. Neon floral shopper, Topshop, 5. Neon blue nail varnish, American Apparel, 6. Neon green belt, ASOS, 7. Neon orange Cambridge satchel, ASOS

What do you think of the neon trend?

Weekend wants #02




1. Fashionology Cross Bracelet £13.40: This is such a cute bracelet, which I first spotted on Beauty Crush's Youtube.

2. Barbour waxed jacket £199.95: So bloody expensive but so bloody amazing! This is actually the mens jacket but I prefer the cut of it. I see this as more of an investment...it will never go out of fashion and is actually a sensible coat (eg. warm and waterproof).

3. Topshop sunglasses £16: I have wanted some large rounded sunglasses for ages and spotted these babies today...I told myself I would stop buying loads of cheap sunglasses and invest in good quality pair once a year, but I may have break that promise for these beauts!

4. Topshop animal stud sweater £35: I have actually brought this already as I saw in online earlier this week and added it to my wishlist, but I saw it in store on Wednesday I thought to myself If I don't get it now it will sell out and I'll be gutted I didn't get it...so I got it! (great justification to myself there!).

5. Estée Lauder Idealist Even Skintone Illuminator £46: I am obsessed with skincare at the moment...mainly because I have actually got a good routine now which seems to be helping! This is next to buy on my skincare wishlist!

6. American Apparel Disco pants £70: Who doesn't want a pair of these at the moment...Ive been trying to track down some cheaper versions online...no luck so far :( let me know If you know of any!

This week I have mostly...

Been listening to...



I literally cant get enough of this song at the moment...no doubt I will completely play it to death and end up not liking it in a couple of weeks!

Been Eating...



I'm meant to be eating healthy but I cant resist a cup of tea and biscuits to cure the afternoon slump!

Been watching...



I love 24. My fiance and I worked our way through 7 series of it when we were at Uni. We never got round to watching the final series when it started on SKY though so we have just started watching it and its sooo good! If you have never seen an episode then I cant recommend it enough!

Been reading...

http://www.llymlrs.com/

If you aren't following Lily already then I don't know where you have been! Her sense of style is second to none and I love to read her reviews on http://www.etcllymlrs.com/ even if she does make me spend all my money! Definitely my favourite blog!

http://afluenza.blogspot.com/

I only realised this week that Victoria from VeeVeeVogue on Youtube has a blog as well, her style is amazing and she comes across as such a lovely girl! You should go check out her blog and Youtube channel NOW (if you haven't already!)

Been wanting...




I don't usually read much but when I do get into a good book I cant put it down and I think if I had a kindle, I would definitely read more! ha!

Been Buying...

Benefit's Porefessionally Pretty set. Diet Coke are running a promotion at the moment where they are giving £5 off any Benefit purchase online, over £20 so I though brilliant I can go online and get The Porefessional (Which i have wanted for ages) and get £5 off. The set, which includes small sizes of Erase Paste and Girl Meets Pearl is the same price as The Porefessional on its own but is only limited edition so had sold out online. Plus even If I had brought it, P+P is £4 so I would only have saved a pound! SO ANYWAAAY...I went to Debenhams and they had 2 sets left in the store so I couldn't say no!!! plus I had a gift card in my purse with £2 left on it so I still got it a little cheaper! Keep an eye out for my first product review on this, will hopefully post next week!

What have you been mostly doing this week?

What I wore today #02


Dress-Topshop, Belt-Topshop, Leather jacket-H+M, Boots-Topshop.

This is what I wore last night to a meal and a few drinks for a friends birthday. I also wore my black fur stole with it. It was a fun night catching up with some old friends eating pizza and drinking desperado's, my favourite drink ever!

Also just wanted to say a little thank you to you lovely people for following my blog. Its exiting knowing someone might actually be reading this rubbish! Also means I'll have to keep it up now! :)

Hope you are having a lovely weekend!
