Style Crush | Jessica Alba

*All images taken from Pintrest and glamourmagazine.co.uk 

I don't know about you guys but I alway remember Jessica Alba from the Tv programme Dark Angel in the late 90's- early 2000. I also remember her from the film Honey (I use to love that film)! An american Tv and film actor and a mother. I admire her chic and sophisticated style, her casual outfits are simple yet always have a fashion edge and her red carpet always looks are so classy and elegant. she's absolutely gorgeous!

What do you think of Jessica Alba's style?

April Favourites

L'Oreal Paris- True match foundation in Golden Amber 
I am a big fan of L'Oreal Paris products. After purchasing the L'oreal Lumi Magique foundation a few months ago (review available here) and receiving a lovely comment from Hola Bambi about their true match foundation, it would be rude not to try it out. This foundation blends perfectly into the skin creating a flawless matte finish, my go-to foundation at the moment.

Rimmel London - Moisturising Lipstick in Nude Delight
After watching another video from the You-tuber Beauty Crush talking about this product, I had to go out and get it! A your lips but better moisturising lipstick, perfect for an everyday makeup look.

Rimmel London - Waterproof eyeliner in Nude
Another product featured in one of Beauty Crush's videos. A great waterproof liner that creates a bigger and brighter look to your eyes, a natural looking alternative to a white liner.

Collection - Illuminating touch brightening concealer in Glow 3
An affordable concealer that works wonders if you suffer from harsh dark circles or blemishes. perfect as a base product underneath a foundation but quite heavy in texture.

Forever 21- Cross Bracelet 
Such a cute delicate bracelet that goes with pretty much everything!

I know it might not be the weather for a strappy maxi dress or the colour yellow for that matter but I couldn't help but fall in love with this cute maxi dress. As I should be going on holiday in september I've been keeping my eyes out of holiday pieces and I think this is one item I shall be adding to my collection. I've also been on the look out for some cute floral printed trousers but I haven't seemed to find any I like! If anyone has found any cute floral trousers please let me know below.

Both bracelets from Forever 21

A very small what I brought post/mini haul today as I've only brought these two cross bracelets. I don't know whether it's me, but I haven't really seen anything clothing items that have stood out for me at the moment. I'm going through a make-up faze, to the point where I wanna try out every new or recommended  make up product, and as boots as a 3 for 2 offer on at the moment I have indulged a little in the drug store make up department. After watching Beauty Crush's Mac dupe video I went out and tried to find every mac lipstick dupe featured in the video haha (however, I only brought one!). I just can't help myself especially after watching hauls and monthly favourites it makes me wanna go out and try everything!

Style Crush | Millie Mackintosh

*Images taken from heat.com

I thought this months style crush was the perfect choice. If you don't know Millie Mackintosh currently stars in the hit UK reality show Made In Chelsea and new episodes from the series area on monday! I am a big fan of Millie and her style. She effortlessly pulls of numerous styles such as floral, girly and edgy. Her style is so elegant and I love that she's not afraid of colour. A definite style icon for me! I can't help but want everything from her wardrobe, I'm not only a fan of her style but I'm also a fan of her personality. If you watch Made In Chelsea you'll know that Millie is a bit of a feisty character in the show and that's what I love about her, she's not afraid to say what everyone else is thinking. 

Who's you style icon this month?

SS13 Trend || Spotted

1. Monki Carrie shirt- £25.00, 2. New Look black and white polka dot midi skirt- £12.99, 3. Monki Nadia trousers- £20.00, 4. ASOS clutch bag with metallic spot- £25.00, 5. Topshop spot stretch crop tee- £10.00, 6. Topshop spot swing denim skirt- £30.00 

For me the polka dot/spotty trend is one of the easiest trends to style. I feel like this trend is perfect for those who are fashion lovers and who love to follow new trends, however never feel brave or confident enough to go out and buy into the trend. Polkadots are not really a 'new trend'. Polkadot /spotted clothing has continued to pop in and out of the 'fashionworld' and I kind of feel like to me black polkadots items are almost timeless pieces. As elegantly demonstrating in the image of the S/S13 chanel catwalk show a black polkadot pieces can be dressed up to look very elegant. They can also be dressed down for a everyday kind of look with a white t-shirt and leather jacket. Grey, black and white polkadot is almost the perfect trend for work wear in my option. 

How do you feel about polkadots/the polkadot trend?
