LULU SPRING SUMMER

So on the weekend of halloween I landed myself a new job selling in LuLu Guinness. I have been a fan of the designer since my friend introduced me to the brand at the beginning of first year. This week saw some of their Spring Summer range. The theme... Disco. Although the disco ball and head phones are not available yet these are some of my top picks so far.


 LuLu has been experimenting with faces for the last six years. This is her newest version. I love the cheeky feel to it. All on a polished Carve leather.



 My fav piece from the collection is this lips bag. Originally coming out as a wristlet clutch last season it has been developed into this handbag (bigger than it looks in the picture). The leather is amazing, nappa is the platinum of all leathers. And this design will be sure to get you noticed.

Runway Runners

So, I've just started my second year of uni; which means one thing... work. Our new project is based on 'Fashion Forecasting' and 'Sustainable Futures'. We need to look into three different trends, the one I'm most interested in is the designer trainer. Such designers as Chanel, DKNY, Ashish, Christian Dior and Burberry Prorsum are including trainers in their most recent collections.

The count down to London Fashion Week has started...  and if things go the right way I could be getting work experience with Ashish! I've been looking through his last seasons and trying to choose my favourite bits... and then got distracted by all the other designers. These are some of my favs from S/S14:
(sorry about bad quality cant find decent ones anywhere!)

DIRTY LOOKS

 






 

It's no secret my hair is ridiculously thin. I've tried all the different products to give my hair some life but noooothing has worked. I came across Dirty Looks hair extensions as one of my friends has them and the quality of them was unreal!
 
They are really nicely packaged in a lilac box and includes a little book showing you how to care and put on the extensions. The actual extensions come in a plastic sealed package with two sections. This is really helpful as the smaller section has one lot in so you can ensure you've bought the right colour and length! If not you can just send them back.
 
I got Bobby Glam full head hair extensions Triple Weft in Malibu Blonde, 20-22 inches long. My original plan was to dye all of them pink, to make sure they would be a match to my own hair. After trying to put them all on I realised there were loads! I think its partly to do with how thin my hair is that I couldn't put all of them in at the same time. This is brilliant cause its aloud me dye half of them pink and keep the others blonde for when my hair fades back.
 
I'd defiantly recommended getting some!
