purple lipstick


Inspired by this post on powderdoom, I impulsively bought some purple lipstick whilst I was shopping for nail polish with my friend, I was extremely disappointed by my purchase I ended up buying two different one's the following day to fulfill the Debbie Thornberry-shaped hole in my heart.

Left to right: Revlon 'Black Cherry', 17 'Scrumptious', Kate Moss for Rimmel London ' 04'.

 17's 'Scrumptious' which has the worst pigment I've ever encountered, even though there was a nifty mirror that popped out of the tube I would not recommend it at all.


After my disappointment, I headed to my local Superdrug and came across two lipsticks in the shade I was looking for, Revlon in 'Black Cherry' and my personal favourite brand, Kate Moss for Rimmel London in '04'.

Swatches, left-to-right: Revlon, 17 and Kate Moss for Rimmel.
As you can see by the swatches the 17 comes out kind of like a gloss, it barely shows up at all it's just a waste of money, STAY AWAY.

If you're looking for a darker, almost burgundy type colour then go for the Revlon, it's fantastic and goes on great, would definitely recommend!

But my personal favourite, which I've worn for the last four consecutive days is the Rimmel, I have three other Kate Moss for Rimmel and they are my favourite lipsticks I love them dearly so, but this is my new baby, exactly the shade I had in mind when I went looking for it, and stays on super well, only need to re-apply maybe 1-2 times during my 7 hour college day (including lunch).

In short, I'm in love with Rimmel and I want to be Debbie Thornberry.

Available at: Boots and Superdrug
Price: Around five pounds each
Would buy the Revlon and Rimmel again.

Okay, bye!

it's -1 degrees



Jumper: New Look
Dress worn as skirt: Topshop
Creepers: New Look

It's so foggy outside it's really creepy, it's also super cold and so I'm wearing my dress again but layered under my thickest jumper.
I've got to write a 3000 word essay by 4pm tomorrow so I've got a very busy and probably frustrating day ahead of me, wish me luck!

Okay, bye.

''so, are you like alternative now?''



Dress: Topshop
Tights: Primark
Creepers: New Look

Ugh, not keen on the glare on my glasses or my clothes rail as a background but I only had about 30 seconds to snap a photo before I had to run for the bus this morning! 
I'm super busy in college but I hope I can try and take another (better) outfit photo tomorrow!

Okay, bye!

polywhore

Some looks I'm hoping to recreate soon, I have a really similar dress from Topshop that I need to collect from the store and I don't wear anything but my creepers but I have been on the hunt for the perfect flannel shirt for so long! Fingers crossed!

Military Maxi

Inspired by my tumblr-friend Kitty, check that out over here:

I lost my beloved bowler hat at a party in Warrington so I'm on the hunt for a new one and I've had my eye on a really cute dark green jumper from New Look and I've just bought a pair of jeans, which is a BIG DEAL since I haven't worn jeans in YEARS. Exciting stuff. (Not really.)

Bought this scarf at H&M and I'm a little bit in love with it.

I'm really into eyeballs at the moment, debating getting an eyeball tattoo for my 18th birthday seeing as my Angel Haze lyric idea is out the window. But anyway, SO into tartan and black right now. Not sure why.
Everything not credited I found in the depths of tumblr, if know the credit for anything, tell me!
