June Haul

Hi everyone, I hope everyone is great! I was meant to blog this a couple of weeks earlier but never got round to it. Last month, I took a trip to Zara and bought two items; a top with Braided collar (that is what Zara calls it) and dip hem dress. I must have been feeling very blue that day because both items happen to be blue.

I have always wanted a top like this but either the price wasn't right or it the style was exactly what I wanted. This was £29.99 but a week later Zara started doing their summer sale so it is now £19.99! Click here 



Never mind. I was lucky to even find my size because there wasn't many small left, and most of them were faulty on the back of the collar. Actually, I'm lucky to find a non faulty one. It comes in white too, I wanted to get it too but all the whites were faulty on the back of the collar-the hooks were made from threads and were coming off. I tried to be cheeky and ask the sales lady if I could get a discount since they didn't have any other that was non faulty. But no, she said they don't do discount, if its faulty they will just send it back to Spain. Fair enough! So, I just bought the blue one.

Initially, I went Zara just to get that top for the video I made for a casting role (Click here to watch it). On my way to the fitting room I saw this beautiful dress.



I have been looking for a dip hem dress for a while now- Zara calls it, 'Dress with front opening'-, I've seen a few but either the pattern/colour wasn't right, or it was the price. This is also on sale right now, I bought it for £29.99 and it is now £17.99. This also comes in white, the thin brown belt is included. On the website, you will find this dress under TRF and not Woman section.

Flash those sexy shoulders- My first video!!

Hi everyone! Yesterday, I made my very first video blog (vlog). The main purpose of the video is actually for a casting role, a female fashion video blogger, so not officially my first vlog. The brief of this project was to create a 1-2 minute video blog talking about one the following topics; fashion, Hollywood gossip, latest technology and gadgets, cars, games & other cool products. I obviously chose fashion.

I chose to talk about clothes that shows off your shoulders. I got this idea from Vogue, it had a mini article about exposing shoulders this summer for an elegant look.

It took me 2 hours to make a 2 minute video because I kept messing up and I kept starting over and over again. I'm pretty sure I did 50 or more takes! I think you can tell that I'm not used to talking to the camera, lol!

It's so weird watching myself, I couldn't watch the whole thing. I had to stop it after 10 seconds. Lol!
Anyways, I've attached the video below. Hope you like it!




The top I'm wearing is from Zara, £29.99.
Ear rings are from Aldo. Forgot how much they were.
