NEW BOOTS

ASOS ROXY CHELSEA ANKLE BOOTS

I've been in need of a good pair of boots for what seems like an eternity so I made the most of the 20% off student discount at ASOS. These Roxy Chelsea Boots were just what I was looking for as they have a chunky heel that add a little bit of height and have got me up to 5'5" (not quite VS model worthy but I'll take it). Despite the mini heel, they are still very comfy and I would happily wear them everyday if I wanted to.They have sort of a rubbery material to them which does mean that any marks/scuffs can show up on them quite easily. They're black so they go with basically everything in my wardrobe! I think these will be perfect for smart-casual house parties sort of thang, but also for when I'm just running errands or shopping. They are only £35 (£27 with discount) which I think is an absolute bargain, I would definitely snap them up quickly if you want them!

I've seen a few people with these boots in sixth form but I'm not too bothered as I'm only planning on wearing them out on the weekends.

Do you like these boots?

I have also included some beauty bits - how gorge is that Nars lipgloss?! Also, some music I've been loving, I feel as though I've rediscovered and refallen (?) in love with The Weeknd since hearing his contribution to the 50 Shades soundtrack, Earned It - go give it a listen!

LANA DEL REY GOLDEN GLOBES 2015 INSPIRED MAKE UP

So if you've followed my blog, instagram and twitter for a while you will know that I am completely in love with Lana Del Rey. I went to see her in concert back in 2013 and I'm desperate to see her live again when she next tours Europe. She looked absolutely stunning at the Golden Globes 2015 last week, I loved the dress, hair and make up. She definitely looked like a more traditional Lana: big hair and big liner, as opposed to what she has been wearing to promote UV: lots of eye shadow and liner smoked out on the lower lash line. I feel like she could be returning to the Born To Die era, especially with the rumours surrounding her new album, Honey Moon.

Lana looked as though she was glowing from within so I started off with MAC's Strobe Cream to hydrate my skin and stop it from looking so lack-lustre. I then stippled some of the Revlon Photo Ready Foundation all over my skin using a damp beauty blender. Following that, I covered my under eye circles and any pesky blemishes with the MAC Prolong wear concealer. This concealer does crease on me so I then set it with some of my Maybelline Matte Me Powder to avoid it settling into those fine lines, 'cos that just ain't how Lana rolls. Moving onto brows, I used my MAC Omega eye shadow, but I've heard that an Anastasia Beverley Hills product was used on her brows for this look. For the classic LDR flick I used my Soap & Glory Super Cat Liner and then coated my lashes with the Rimmel Wonderfull Mascara. Lana looks as though she is wearing lashes in the picture, but I skipped this step. Now onto lips, I used my Me Now Liner to line my lips and then colour them in. And ta-da Lana make up look complete!

Do you like Lana's make up?
