Minnie Mouse Meets Vintage

I just thought I would share with you a few photos I took last weekend  when I attended a wedding up in Derbyshire. It was a beautiful, small and intimate ceremony.
The inspiration behind my outfit was 'Minnie Mouse and Vintage'. Very random yes i know, but I like being creative and letting my mind run wild. Here is what I wore:

Dress - Topshop

Oversized Bow - Claire's Accessories(UK)

 

Carvela Shoes - CookieLondon.com

  

 Lace Gloves - CookieLondon.com

 

 

Bag - CookieLondon.com

So alongside work this summer, one of the things that really kept me busy was my online thrift boutique. Yes my boutique! I had been highly anticipating it for about a year. It started off as a crazy idea I got in my head about a year ago but I kept putting the thoughts aside saying "I will do another time". To cut the long story short, I came to a decision that it's now or never! so I acted and now I am the proud owner of CookieLondon.com.
The boutique is called Cookie London. It is an online thrift and vintage boutique which sells preloved, thrifted and vintage items. It is now complete and up and running. Visit the site and share favourite items on the page with friends on facebook and twitter. You can also access the site from pages tab above by clicking 'Boutique'. Happy Shopping x.

Long Time no See

Hey guys, it's been a while, I know. I had a very busy summer. Some of  you may have been wondering why I have been so quiet. A lot of things have kept me busy through out this holiday. First half of my holiday I spent a great deal of time working as I was saving up for my big move to london. The other half of my holiday was spent Interning for a local lingerie company as a website assistant. It was great fun, learnt so much from e-commercerce to Seo and to designing graphical stuff such as promos etc. On top of that I now officially own an online thrift boutique called Cookie London. I will ellaborate some more in the next post.

By the way, what are your thoughts on my current hairstyle. yay or nay?

My Skincare Regime

Good morning guys, I just thought of sharing with you how I look after my skin.
Scrub: I scrub my skin daily with a facial scrub and rinse with cold water. The product that I am currently using is the 'Neutrogena Visibly Clear 2-in-1 Mask'. I use it as a scrub daily and use it as a mask at the end of the week.
Toner: After I have washed my face, I use the 'visibly clear Spot and stress control' toner to cleanse and tone my skin.
Moisturiser: Instead of using the visibly clear moisturiser I use the 'Simple' light moisturiser. I prefer using this because it leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturised unlike the 'visibly clear' moisturiser leaves my skin feeling tight an dry. I do not always use these specific brands, I like experimenting with different ones. I chose to use neutrogena this month because my skin has been breaking out a lot lately.
What works for you?

Simply Red

I must say i'm loving the British Summer this year. Long braids, hot weather and radiant skin. I decided to team up my lace floral midi skirt with a red topshop crop top and a pair of converse's.

Croptop - Topshop

Skirt - Rare London

Shoes - Converse

Head Wrap inspired by Eryka Badu

Statement Earings

Statement Earrings: I came across these whilst on my travels in Portugal last Christmas. It was love at first sight, I knew I had to get them. I wear them all the time. They enhance and complete any look I go for.  I can and wear them with almost any outfit
