my style evolution

-

It’s about time for a throwback on this blog, so I am going to take a trip down memory lane and explore my past fashion choices in the past 5 years, which has been, well… eventful. The reason I’d like to share this is to show how my style has changed and advanced as I have developed from a teen into an adult!

We start in 2015, so I was 13, and my go to was a combination of hoodies and patterned leggings, and I’m very happy I moved on from the patterned leggings but my hoodie obsession has got a lot worse!

i'm on the right :)


I think this was my last year of wearing leggings in thought-out outfits, as I now just wear them for dance, around the house and in outfits with no effort!

2016 was a very basic but sporty year with my outfits. I definitely found my favourite colours this year were blue and monochrome, and I developed a love for skinny jeans in this year! I really stuck to my comfort zone too, and just went back to the basics.

From what I remember my go to piece of clothing this year was my denim jacket, and I do still love a denim jacket in the spring!

In 2017, I started to venture out a little, back into patterns but still loved my skinny jeans. This was the first year I also started getting into trousers, and I loved paring them with a good graphic tee!

Towards the end of the year I started with some layering, and really liked my band tees, like this one, and lived in my classic white Converse!

2018 was a bit of a game changer in my opinion, I really started to go out of my comfort zone and found some new items that I have been in love with ever since.


Sweatshirts and mom jeans became my new favourite items in this year and I loved styling them! I do feel like at the age of 16, I switched up my style a lot and it became my current style, but still within my comfort zone a little.

In 2019, I stuck very much with the mom jeans, but started to get more loose-fitting ones as well as simple block colours! 2019 was also the year I discovered Hollister bralettes, which are amazing to be honest!

i'm on the left :)


And now in 2020, I have again tried to push the boat out a little, and I am loving layering at the current minute! I can’t really do it with the current weather ☹ However, I am continuing to love trousers, sweatshirts and mom jeans, but I can’t wait to try and style some new items!

    Such a creative idea for a blog post, I love it! Recently I have added mom jeans to my wardobe instead of constantly living in skinny jeans too and I absolutely love them! x

    Such a great post idea!

    I live in neutrals mostly now. Simple dresses, blouses, lots of florals. Classy chic, haha.

    Definitely had a long leggings phase! I wore them nonstop for about two years.

summer skincare routine

Skincare is usually not something I care too much about, and as I do have pretty clear skin. However, I have wanted to have a routine in place, as I am trying to reduce the amount of break outs I have! I mean, what a great time to be writing this, considering I have just broken out with a few spots around my nose! I don't own a lot of skincare products, and its just because my skin rarely needs a full, deep cleanse, but these products I use on a daily basis. In the morning, I will only apply the last 3 products, just because I don't usually have a lot of time to focus on skincare! In the evenings, I start by taking off my makeup with the Garnier Micellar Water and a cotton pad, which thoroughly takes off my makeup, meaning I can skip the stage of cleansing. If I am feeling lazy however, I just remove my makeup with a makeup wipe. I then hydrate my face with the Mario Badescu Facial Spray, which helps my skin from not going dry in the summer months. This also gi

my piercings...

Hello and welcome back or welcome to my blog! Today I’m bringing a post I have wanted to write for such a long time, and has been some time in the making. Piercings are quite a big thing for me personally, and I have quite an extensive amount (currently I’m up to 9 on both ears, as of last Tuesday). I also wanted to write this post to give my reviews (and an added pain scale, 1 being low and 10 being high) to each piercing I have, in case anyone is doubting a piercing. This is something I am so passionate about, so I’m happy I can share this here! Left Ear My left ear is a lot more decorated than my right, as it holds 6 piercings in total. I love the way this ear looks, and it has taken a good year and a half to build it up. As I have my first and second lobe piercings on both ears, I will talk about all of my cartilage piercings on this ear. All of my helix/cartilage piercings were done locally at a piercing studio (which I shall not name for security reasons), and the majority

3 ways to make your spotify 'aesthetic'

-

Music is something that makes me so happy, and you find me listening to it a lot of the time (as I’m writing this I have my summer playlist on), whether that be with my airpods in and being respectful to everyone, blasting out my records, or just having a party in my room (this happens more often than not!). I use and update my spotify account regularly, and like to keep it as ‘aesthetic’ as possible, and there are ways to do this. I will link my spotify below if you’d like any inspiration 😊 1.       Update your playlists regularly. New songs are released weekly, and you can often find songs that you forget about but never add them to playlists. By updating playlists, it means you’re not having the same selection of songs on repeat, which can eventually get boring. As well as adding new songs, removing songs you don’t like as much anymore or don’t fit a certain vibe in a playlist, it can help you to enjoy some playlists a lot more, rather than having to skip so many songs before f
