Don't Piss Me Off | Outfit of the Day

WHAT I'M WEARING: TOP vintage, SHORTS Missguided, SHOES New Look.

I had to do an outfit post on this top because I think it's so funny. My mum hates this top because she doesn't like me wearing swear words on my clothes but I love it! It says ''Don't piss me off. I'm running out of places to hide the bodies.'' Genius. I bought this from some shop that I don't know the name of. It's quite an alternative shop and there were a load of other t-shirts similar to this one. I bought this top and another one that said ''I am calm, now fuck off'' - my mum hates that top even more than she hates this one haha! Sorry if all this swearing offends you. 
These shorts are my fave pair at the moment! You can't see them all that much because I love wearing my tops in extra large and oversized. I used to feel dead uncomfortable wearing such short shorts but now I don't really care. I'm real shy but if I want to wear something, I will! My shoes are from New look and they are so lovely! I love wearing them when I'm not wearing my boots. They are quite chunky shoes - what's not to love? & of course, I'm wearing my fishnet tights because I just can't not wear them. 

Have a lovely Sunday everyone!

What's in my bag?

I bought this bag last week online in the sale from New Look after spotting it in the shop. The minute I saw it, I fell in love with it! It's so cute and I've always wanted a little backpack like this! I think this goes with almost all of my outfits too! The fact that this one is silver metallic is just so dreamy! Weird fact: I like to give my bags names and I've named this backpack spaceboy after one of my favourite Smashing Pumpkins songs ;)

So what exactly is in my bag? Let's find out...
I make sure that I always take my phone and my purse in my bag as they're essentials.This is one of my all time favourite purses and I got it a few years ago from River Island.
Next up, I have my Kindle and my Marilyn Monroe compact. I only bought the kindle last week as I'm such a book worm now! I can't believe I used to live life without a Kindle.
I always make sure I carry my lipsticks with me as I cannot live without lipstick. I always have a MAC lipstick with me. I don't usually wear lipgloss but I just bought this one today. Rimmel's lasting concealer is always in my bag. It's my favourite ever concealer and I recommend it to everyone!
The lastest addition to my bag is this Narciso Rodriquez perfume. This is my all time favourite perfume ever! I'm no good at describing perfumes so go give it a sniff! It stays on for hours and it just smells so beautiful!

What do you all have in your bags this summer?

Suede Lace Up Shorts

WHAT I'M WEARING - top, NEW LOOK, shorts, MISSGUIDED, Shoes & Choker, RIVER ISLAND.

Hello everyone! Both me and Leah have missed doing our blog so much. After a short break, we are both so happy to be posting again. Honestly, our lives felt empty without blogging! I thought I'd do a quick outfit post (in our blogging break, an excessive amount of clothes have been purchased). This outfit has got to be one of the coolest outfits I've ever worn. Look at those shorts! I think they were made for me, I love them so much! The detail on them is dreamy.

I absolutely love New Look at the moment. This top I'm wearing is just a classic black bardot top! It instantly makes me feel like I've got a good, fashionable outfit on if I'm wearing this top.

Here is to many more posts, I'm so happy to be back!
Love Rachel, x

Face Of The Day & OOTD

I thought I'd do a quick post today on my makeup because I'm currently loving the Makeup Revolution ultra FLAWLESS palette! Honestly, I wish I discovered this brand sooner because the flawless palette is probably my favourite eyeshadow palette ever. I'll make sure to do a review on it soon because it really is a must have! I'm wearing Benefit's Porefessional primer and Rimmel's stay matte foundation. I also used collection's concealer and Rimmel's clear complexion powder. I have combination skin and all of those products really help keep my skin looking matte through out the day. I love wearing the new creme puff blusher in 'gorgeous berries' from Max Factor (review here). It's honestly my favourite blusher ever. My inner goth came out today so I just had to wear MAC's Cyber lipstick.

What I'm Wearing: GILET Primark | DRESS, Urban Outfitters | NECKLACE, New Look | BOOTS, River Island.

Your looking at the best boots that ever existed. I love these boots and I haven't taken them off since I got them for my birthday last month. They even have fur inside of them! I've always wanted boots like this and I can't believe I found them in the River Island sale. River Island always do the best sales. I also found this Urban Outfitters dress in the sale. I just love black velvet dresses and I just needed to have this in my wardrobe. I don't usually go in Urban Outtfitters as it's just too expensive and I already have no money, haha.

I hope you all had a lovely weekend :) 
Love, Rachel. x

Boxing Day

What I'm Wearing: FUR COAT, Dorothy Perkins | GILET, Boo Hoo | PLAYSUIT, Topshop | SHOES, Primark | EAR MUFFS, New Look | RING, Gemporia.

I hope everyone had a great Christmas! I'm kind of upset that it's all over now but I'm so excited for New Year now. Boxing Day is always a great day to relax and today we went to our local park for a long walk to show off our new clothes. I'm wearing my new Dorothy Perkins fur coat. Burgundy is one of my favourite colours so you'll see me in this coat for a while! To keep extra warm, I'm wearing my new gilet from Boo Hoo. I already have a few gilets but you can never have too many as they're so warm! My burgundy playsuit goes perfect with my coat too! The playsuit is quite different from my usual style but I just adore how it looks with the top underneath it. With all of these layers, you can say that I was pretty warm on our winter walk!

Last up is my new ring that I got for Christmas. This ring is just stunning! I can't even say what colour it is exactly as in natural light it's a light burgundy and then it looks a dark plum. I've never owned a garnet ring before so I'm so happy to add this little gem to my collection!

I hope you all had a lovely Christmas!
Love Leah, x

Festive Fashion | Christmas Jumpers!


When you hear 'Christmas jumper' you immediately picture an embarrassing jumper that you wouldn't be seen dead in (maybe that's a bit to far, haha.) I must admit, I've never owned a Christmas jumper before but this year has been a turning point for Christmas jumpers as they're now stylish and  essential for the festive season. I just had to create a list of my favourite Christmas jumpers of 2014.  My favourite in the picture above is probably the River Island 'naughty or nice' jumper, I mean how could you not love this jumper? I also love the sequins on the Christmas tree jumper which is from Topshop. You can never have enough sparkle, especially at this time of year!

You're never to old to wear a festive jumper but let's not forget about hats! I think hats are a great accessory to any outfit and I've been wearing my Christmas pudding and reindeer hat all month, you can read all about them here!

Christmas is now less than a week away and I can't even contain my excitement! What are your favourite Christmas jumpers of this year? 
Love Rachel, xx
