New purchases!

Do you ever buy something and then feel guilty? Especially when you get home and your parents are looking at you and asking what you've bought? so ... like you've gone and convinced yourself that you NEED these items, your now trying to convince your parents! They're essentials... Right ladies? ;-) 

If your anything like me, you spend your wages before you've even recieved them... All the time! I only got paid last week!!! And I'm now having to be careful, which is always the case! But I just keep reminding myself we get our student loans next week!!! Yay!! :-D

But no, seriously. I need to stop! For now... 

Anyway! I thought i would share some of my recent purchases with you, I've been meaning to do this for a while but I've just been super duper busy! I'm sorry. 

1) High waisted Joni jeans from Topshop! (The best jeans I've ever owned! Very comfortable and stretchy!) Dad didn't see these come in the post, so I didn't have to explain! Not that I should have too anyway, because it's my money! But, i think it's just my way of justifying it to myself maybe...

2) Black Leather 'Outlaw' Chelsea style boots from Schuh! £65 (will add a link here soon!) My reason for these was, I needed some good leather boots for the winter days, and that they're a very good price! 

3) Black and White Nike Roshe's! £70 from Schuh! (Can you tell I work there?-will add a link here soon!) These are my ultimate favourite trainers when it comes to comfort Wow! <3 <3 <3 Dad says these are the most sensible pairs of shoes/trainers I've ever bought! Paha! No seriously, They are pretty fit though!

4) Tan coloured 'Reggata' Schuh shoes, from Schuh! (Believe it or not!) £30! (Will add a link here soon!) These are my casual shoes, they go with almost anything. This is the second pair I've had because I adore them! 

5) Victorias's Secret pamper collection! It was £13 for 1 or 5 for £30... So yes of course I went for 5, even though I did only go in for one but I thought I was an opportunity that couldn't be missed, I saved £35! And this is the day I told my friend not to let me buy anything!  Fail! 

(The bodybutter makes your skin feel lush!)

6) Treat myself to some new lipstick didn't i, I hardly ever buy lipstick... So thought I would treat myself. (Exact words to my dad) Remmel London No.720 Notting Hill Nude Lipstick. (2 for £10 on all products at boots!) It looks really good if I do say so myself... ;-)

7) Remmel London BB Cream 9-IN-1(on the 2 for £10 offer at boots!) I bought this to wear on a every day basis! It gives a healthy glow and doesn't give that 'too much make-up' look! (I bought a new foundation brush too!) 

8) So this was last months big purchase but I lost my virginty to MAC. I bought the MAC Studio Sculpt foundation, this is now for special days though, like when I go on a night out or to a special event! (normally I couldn't face spending £25 on something like this, but I was curious and my friend uses it all the time and her skin is flawless!) 

9) My black cardigan from Urban outfitters! On sale for £25 reduced from £45. It was love at first sight... 

10) Red or Dead Heels from Schuh on sale for £19.99

11) and to go with the red or dead shoes, I bought this pretty pink open back dress from boohoo! 

So as you can see, I've been spending a few penny's here and there! And it probably won't stop here! Hehe! ;-)

My Story...

I've always been a vain creature! I don't know why, because on most days i look in the mirror and i think 'sweet  Jesus' -  i suppose we all think that though, right? While other's... they might think you look great!  Don't get me wrong, we all have our good and bad days!

I've always been told that i'm very photogenic! Ever since i was young, I've helped my sister and other  friends with their projects by modelling! I've always helped out when it's come to stuff like that. I've helped out at the College fashion shows by agreeing to do some catwalk modelling... next to professional models too! I have to admit, the pressure was unreal. I can't imagine what it's like at a real professional  fashion show!!

 

 This is me modelling for my collection - Punk and Disorderly!

Bits and bobs from walking the catwalk!

 

Being a model, was what i always wanted to be when i was growing up! My mum bought me and my sister one of those photo-shoot  packages! I LOVE IT! I feel very vain saying this, but the photographers said i had the face for it!

 

 Since then, i was sure that's what i wanted to do, my mum supported me all the way! I got accepted by a modelling agency... i received a letter  through the post with details and got very excited until i saw that we had to pay so much to build a portfolio! But mum was willing to pay! she wanted this more than me i think! My cousin, being a professional model, said i shouldn't pay any agency! After this,  i didn't know what to do. I eventually got really busy with college and work, that i gave up!

Unfortunately, i lost my mum just over a year ago, My aunt (Mums sister & my cousins mum) is always saying i should get into commercial modelling... and i know my mum always wanted me too because deep now she knew i did too! My dad never shuts up about it either!

My Cousin is a big inspiration to me!  She does all sorts of modelling! she's out there and  She's amazing!

People say, if you want something, you can do it! You just have to go the right way about it and think positive!

But I'm not sure where to start!

If you think you can help me or give me any advice, please get in touch!
