I feel like I haven't been a very good blogger lately! I've been so busy with school stuff, uni open days and all sorts of things like that! So sorry!!

I wanted to do a quick OOTD/what's on my face. I am really into black and white as you know and also really into simplistic outfits. This is why I wore just plain black leggings with a black dress/top.

I bought the top/dress in the River Island sale that is going on at the moment! And I absolutely love it! So easy to style and with and I love the gold detailing that is on the neckline. I just have on plain black leggings which I don't know where are from but you can pick them up anywhere! My newest purchase has been this cape from warehouse. It is so cosy and warm that I can wear it with everything! It was £30 but I feel like I am going to get a lot of wear out of it! I wore on my feet some knee high boots that I stole from my mum haha!

Thought id also do a what's on my face. I started out with Calvin Klein foundation which I really love and wear all the time! I then did my usual contour and blush which you can find in a previous post on what products I used. I then created a goldy brown smokey eye using Calvin Klein cream eyeshadow in a gold colour and using a medium brown eyeshadow in the crease. On my lips I wore Mac's lip liner in Vino and a Revlon lipstick in va va violet. I love this colour for an autumn berry look!

Let me know if you enjoy posts like these and what you would like to see in the future!

Also let me know what look you are prefering this autumn? Berry or nudes?

First Best Friend -
My first best friend was my still best friend Abbie. We lived next door to each other from the age of two and have been inseparable ever since. She is still the person who I tell all my secrets to and I love her millions!

First Kiss -
My first kiss was with this boy who I had a crush on FOREVER! Turned out to be a complete douche-bag so I'm a hundred percent happy I found my current boyfriend!!

First concert -
The first proper concert I went to was Take That. They are my favourite band in the whole world and I begged my mum to take me and she did! It was the best concert I have EVER been to.

First celebrity crush-
Got to be Zac Efron, or Orlando Bloom! I had the biggest crush for Zac when he was in High School Musical and I still think he is amazingly sexy!! Also Orlando Bloom in Pirates of the Caribbean was amazingly gorgeous.

First word-
I'm not actually sure. Think probably mum!

First pet-
Well I had a hampster when I was younger but didnt really appreciate it that much. So I would probably class my current dog, Bailey, as my first proper pet!

First job-
When I was 16, I went and handed my CV's round everywhere! So my first paid job was in Blue Inc as a Christmas temp and it was the best feeling in the whole world earning my own money!

Makeup product-
My first makeup product was probably mascara and I remember wearing Natural collection clear mascara! I remember feeling so cool that I was allowed to wear makeup (even though it was clear mascara hahaha!)

MY NOMINEES:

Had such a good night in Cardiff Saturday night! Went to glam and met jason from the valleys!! He was so lovely

I really liked my outfit on Saturday. I had bought it new especially for my night iout. I love the monochrome shorts, which were from missguided along with the kimono. I wore a low-cut from River Island and a necklace from eBay!

I really liked the makeup look that went along with this. I wore a simple face with a heavier brow from my HD palette and a red lip! Thought the red really complemented the monochrome outfit!

Hope you all had a good weekend,

Love Sophie xxx

It's was my 18th birthday last week!

And I had an absolutely amazing day and night.

I was spoilt rotten by my friends, boyfriend and family (and hopefully get a what I got for my birthday post soon)

I was going to try and post a birthday OOTD but I didn't actually have any pictures of my outfit fully.

So I've just put up a few pictures of the night so you can get a general idea of my outfit.

I bought my dress from bizzareboutique.co.uk which I absolutely love! Definatly worth having a look at if you are looking for a dress for a special occasion.

Lots of love,
