Getting LFW Ready - My Marc Antoni Makeover

      

MARC ANTONI: SITE // TWITTER // FACEBOOK

Here's something I've not actually done before - a salon review! I get so many of you asking about my hair that I'm surprised I haven't done a post like this sooner!

As you can see from the 'before' photos, my hair was a tragic mess; 3 inch roots, awful faded colour, butchered homecut fringe and frazzled ends - and desperate to not look like a total trainwreck at LFW, something had to be done! I have a long Marc Antoni history - they're the people actually responsible for first dyeing my hair pink back in 2012 and I truly believe it's down to them that it's still so long and lush to this day - I dread to think how fried my hair would be if my mum was in charge!

You may have seen this outfit on my Instagram over LFW weekend - and if you're an avid follower of my blog, you'll know that I've been lusting after this jacket for yonks now, so I'm ecstatic to finally have it in my wardrobe!  I went for all black to keep it chic, as I thought the pink/green combo would be enough colour!

I have a lot of exciting posts coming up, including some ~profesh outfit photos, and of course some squad shoots!  Stay tuned xo

A lot of photos this week!  I've had a ridiculously busy weekend at London Fashion Week but had the time of my life.  Tottering around on cobbles with other bloggers discussing Instagram in depth just makes you realise; THESE ARE MY PEOPLE.  I had a blast at the events I went to and have lots of exciting posts for you guys, including group shoots, ahh!  For the moment, I'm stalking everywhere I've been papped - if you find any let me know but for now I've left a couple of links below!

Fashion Favourites // January 2015







A little late on this one, I'm actually really forgetful with these posts (sorry guys!).  This month I've clearly been loving 70's inspired style - I'm slowly but surely stocking up on the bell bottoms myself!  As always, comment with your faves and any blogs you think I should check out!

Sunday Summary 196

      
1/ Back on the Fruiteatox   2/ Uploaded a new GRWM! (tee)
3/ In love with my ghd hairdryer  4/ Started a bullet journal in this bad boy
5/ Woods date on v-day   6/ Gorge new Aura & Aura case

Organisation has not been my strong point this week - LFW is coming up and I still have no idea what to wear, at this rate it looks like I'll be wearing jeans and a tee haha!  On the plus side, I found out I got into my first choice university, yay!  After 2 years out of education, I'm so excited (and nervous) to go throw myself into learning again, and I get to live in London too which is literally the dream <3
Hope you all had a good Valentine's day!

WATCH* // CASIO @ UO

Back to the rooftop for these photos!  I'm so obsessed with these jeans, I've worn them so much and kept their stretch so well, although you do get chilly knees!  This tee is another gem from Social Decay (featured the other in my GRWM video!) - in love with their rad prints, and yin yangs are my fave so obviously I had to have this tee.  As always, finish off with some chunky boots and a couple of necklaces and you're sorted!

In other news; I've had one of those days where I've been listening to the same song non-stop.. like literally over and over again (you may have guessed that I used the lyrics for the title).  It's from the new Stick To Your Guns album and is so catchy, plus they favourited my tweet earlier *fangirls* - would recommend their latest stuff if you like melodic hardcore!

PS. Two days left to win these boots in my giveaway, go go go!

Sunday Summary Week 195

        
1/ Benugo brekkie before Eurostar  2/ Visited the Eiffel Tower!
3/ Eiffel Tower selfie with Polly  4/ Saw Enter Shikari in Paris
5 & 6/ Visited Notre Dame, so gorgeous
7/ Derpin' at Le Louvre  8/ Saw & Met Alt-J!

This weeks Sunday Summary is clearly a Paris special!  I had an amazing week with Polly and an escape from England was definitely needed - but I definitely have the post-Paris blues now!  The architecture everywhere is breathtaking, and although we visited a few of the landmarks, we still missed out on so many - the city is a whole lot bigger than we thought.  We took the train over so that we could see Alt-J live as their London tour sold out, and I was given VIP tickets so we were lucky enough to meet them (definitely fangirled a bit!).  We also saw that Enter Shikari were playing, so bought tickets a couple of days before we left, and both gigs were amazing - the venues were so intimate compared to where I've seen the bands play before, so you could really appreciate the sound (and not get crushed to death).  I think a trip back is definitely in order, and I'll definitely be looking out for gigs abroad in the future!

Where would you guys recommend I visit next? (Paris or another country!).  Also if you'd like me to do any Paris-specific posts let me know - got a lil' vlog coming soon, so look forward to that!
