Autumn Style: Jumpers

(Note: none of these photos belong to me)

As an August baby you may be surprised to hear that one of my favourite times of year is Autumn! I love the sun but there's something about a comfy outfit when colder weather strikes...makes me think of coffees, coats, warmth, friendship and so on!


Nicole Scherzinger had a spread in the October 2013 issue of Glamour Magazine where she sported the Autumn jumper look perfectly!

My mission recently has been to find some great Autumn jumpers to wear with leather jackets, leggings and boots!

Asos have a great range of jumpers, from sweaters to traditional chunky knits to unique designs like the one above which retails at £30 and can be found here




H&M have some great jumpers at £12.99 at the moment and this is one I love and actually bought myself! It's rather thin so would need to be paired with a jacket for colder days but the oversized feel and comfy shape means it's perfect for this time of year! Find it here



I love beige/cream jumpers in Autumn, dark colours are great but I feel fresh when I wear light colours, this one also from H&M retails at £14, is short at the front and longer in the back and has a silky feel, team with some leather look leggings, some boots and a leather jacket and you are good to go! Find it here





As expected MissGuided.co.uk also have a fab range of jumpers, I love the look of this grey one with denim jean shorts, but pair with some tights so you don't freeze! Find this jumper here

This is my favourite style for Autumn what do you think?

God bless

Soap and Glory goodies!

Note: Not all photos are my own, underneath I will state which do not belong to me :)

`You may remember I previously done a post on a Soap & Glory mini scrub called "Scrub 'Em and Leave 'Em" a while back, it was only a small tub but it smelt like vanilla and made my skin feel amazing!

 I've been meaning to purchase some more Soap & Glory products but never had the chance so when I opened a gift from my friends which was a Soap & Glory Birthday Box I was so shocked! What a coincidence haha! So grateful.


The goodies came in such a cute pink box with a ribbon around it!

Included in the box:
  • "Clean On Me" creamy clarifying shower gel 500ml
  • "The Righteous Butter" Body butter 300ml
  • One pink shower puff!

Clean On Me shower gel has a built in moisturiser so it leaves your skin feeling so soft after a shower and teaming it with the body butter makes you feel like you have silk for skin lol! honest! Fantastic for the colder months ahead which leave your skin dryer than normal.
It retails alone for £6 and is a large bottle. The scent is absolutely gorgeous and is really refreshing when you have a morning shower...so fruity. This product won a "COMPANY Beauty" Award in 2012 and I 100% know why. I really look forward to my showers now haha,
Say hello to super soft skin!

Another award winning product here! The Righteous Butter won a "Woman & Home" Best in Beauty award in 2012! What a great year for the brand. 
Alone it retails at £10.50 so is a bargain to come in a set! This body butter is a favourite of mine 100%, even over my Body Shop Shea Butter! The product isn't too runny or too thick and feels perfect on your skin!



Soap and Glory is a brand well worth checking out in Boots if you haven't already! Fantastic value for money and you skin will thank you truuuust me!
They have a broad range of products from fake tan and lip gloss to body scrubs, travel kits, wrinkle filler and products for other problem areas...take a look here!

I am 20!!

Yaaay I turned 20 on August 30th! I am so grateful to God because I didn't even have to make it this far!

I had such a great birthday, it started at work on the 29th when my boyfriend came in with a bunch of roses and a badge for me! It was lovely! My colleagues were all like "awwwww" lol! also that night some of my friends came over for a girlie movie night!

I made my own "cocktail" lool it was supposed to be rum, sugar, cranberry juice and sparking water but silly me accidentally bought cranberry juice DRINK instead of just juice (and we all know there is a huge difference in taste lol) and I also bought soda water instead of sparkling and it didn't stay fizzy :( However with copious amounts of rum and sugar it ended up tasting lush! I was very pleased. My sister also had the idea to buy lime for the glasses and they ended up looking lovely!

We watched "Lottery Ticket" (Bow Wow) and also a film called "Dysfunctional Friends" which my friend recommended and was really good! We munched away, laughed loads and had a whale (Whale? Wale? Wail?) of a time!




The next day me and my sister went out to town to shop and get cake and tea! I got a lush Japanese Cherry Blossom body mist from The Body Shop (more details soon) and we had so much fun!


Me with my balloon from Kai! :D


We then went to The Marlowes Restaurant for lunch and had a blast! There was about 10 of us and the staff didn't mind us making loads of noise and also didn't mind us bringing our own wine! I had the southern fried chicken with curly fries and coleslaw, the chicken was a bit dry but the rest was lush!

The meal was £12.95, it would have been £8.50 for a main and dessert (lunch menu) but as we bought our own wine we had to order from the normal one but was still great!



We all decided we would split then meet back at mine for pre-drinks before going to The Cuban!



Red Velvet Cake with chocolate covered strawbs
 courtasy of my friend Nicole! Place your orders guys! lol

My friends all pitched in to get us a private table with champagne and it was so nice! :'")

The next day I slobbed out with a pizza, "Americas Next Top Model" and the boyfriend until the afternoon when I went back home to visit my family for the week which was also awesome as it was my brother and my mums birthday whilst I was there!

Here's to being 20!


God Bless
