O.O.T.D (November 17th 2013)

 Hey Guys! 

So, today I needed to run in to town to get some photos printed for part of my Uni course. I wanted to do an Outfit of The Day before I left, so I roped in The Boyfriend to help and snap some pictures for me! 

I'm a huge dress lover, which means our not so big wardrobe in our flat is brimming with all kinds! But I especially love this little beauty that I picked up in Primark a few weeks ago (I have had a look in a few of their stores recently and it is still currently in there!). As far as I can recall, it was £13. As you'll soon be able to see, from the rest of this outfit, I am most definitely a fan of good old Primark, especially their Skater-style dress and their dresses in general!

Dress- Primark (In stores currently!) £13
Tights (60 Denier)- Primark, £2.50

I love the super-cute heart print on it! And I think the off-white colour of the hearts is a lot less stark than if they were white. I kind of feel like if you were wearing this for a night out, you could possibly pair it with nude/beige/cream heels or accessories. The roundness of the neck is flattering for a lot of shapes and sizes, and the chest area is really accommodating and doesn't feel tight!

The dress does-up on the left hand side, just below the armpit. This means that the zip is disguised well, and you don't get that zip-line at the back! 

Chelsea Boots- Primark £10

I paired the dress with some thick Black Microfibre tights and some Chelsea-style boots (both again from Primark) because it's obviously a lot colder out now, and so dresses and skirts without tights are a big no-no for me! 

I love these boots so much! They were a present from my Mum a few months back for my birthday, and I just think they go so nicely with dresses and give a slightly more grown-up edge to my outfit.

Faux-Leather jacket with trim- George @ Asda (Current!) £30

Then I topped my outfit off with another Birthday present from a while back, the worlds most amazing faux-leather jacket with matching faux leopard print trim! (detectable)
I absolutely adore this jacket. It's the most perfect length, feels so soft and fits amazingly in all the right places! I know the leopard print and the hearts probably clash, but I loved how it looked! 

So this is the outfit in full (well, almost full, as we totally forgot to take a picture where you can see the shoes...) and I love it, it's comfy, easy to move about in, and I'm not wearing too much that I'll get boiling super quickly! And I'm not wearing too little that I'll be freezing my bum off!

Quickly moving on the face and general make-up area! Today I went with a general, somewhat basic face look, along with a bright red lip. 

A quick list of some products used would be:

• Foundation- Barry M Flawless Matte Finish in #2, Nude (LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS!)
• Blusher- MAC Powder Blush in "Legendary" (From the Marilyn Monroe Collection last year so unfortunately no longer available)
• Mascara- Collection "No Clumps" in Ultra Black.
• Concealer- Collection "Lasting Perfection" Concealer in #2, Light.
• Lip Liner- M.U.A Intense Colour liner in "Brooding Plum" (SO good for just £1! Definitely worth picking up if you wear a red/berry lip often)
• Lipstick- MAC's "Ruby Woo, Retro Matte Finish" 

That's all from me for today! Thanks for reading, there'll be more of these coming your way over the course of next week. 

Bye Guys!
