Style Up - Aztec Pencil Skirt

Hello everyone!

Top £10 Select | Skirt £6 Select | Shoes £6 Primark
This little outfit is something I put together randomly one day and WOW. I adore this look and am mystified as to how I avoided the peplum look for so long. I never thought it would flatter my figure, but I was very wrong! The shoes are from Primark at £6 and I love them as I can actually walk in them! The skirt is now on sale at £6 (I bought it for £8) and the top is £10, both from Select! The skirt is a lovely length too, so I don't feel like I am showing too much leg off!

Click HERE for the top, and HERE for the skirt! No link for the shoes as Primark doesn't have an online store :(

As for why I look so serious in that selfie up there, I've no idea! If you like the outfit, let me know in the comments! Have a great day and keep safe!

Christmas Stocking Fillers

Hello everyone!

Christmas is coming and I just had to post this now! Here are a small selection of gift ideas that are perfect for stocking fillers for both males and females! These are some that I have actually got for people and some that I also spotted on my shopping adventures that are also good ideas. Superdrug are perfect for Christmas gifts, so most of the products are from there :)


Going from the top left and clockwise! Click any of the product names to go and check them out :)

This little tin is perfect for a stocking as it is quite small and contains three different products from Lynx. You get a body spray, shower gel and shampoo. I've bought this for the past few years for male friends so I know that this is the perfect small gift.

This is something I've actually got my Dad this year, because he loves this sort of things and he's normally quite happy even without a gift, so this is perfect for him! It comes with three plastic cans to shoot at for practice and the pellets are suckerpads so cannot injure people!

I saw these while out shopping and thought that these would be perfect for anyone with teens who like nail polishes or anyone who is a 1D fan! These are in a small box, so again these are perfect for a stocking, and there are many other brands and companies that do small sets like this, so you can go for any of them!

This little bag of chocolate stars are a nice little treat for Christmas day and for such a cheap price, you can get these for many people! There are other little treats like this from Lindt and Nestle, so a nice variety are on offer.

I always buy a small one of these every year to accompany some gifts for people as they are nice and small and I have a lot of people in my family that like hand creams, so this one with a nice flowery scent is perfect!

A classic gift for men is a shaver of some sort, and this one is a nice size to squeeze into a stocking, and will hopefully be suited to someone you know! I've never bought one for a gift before, but family members have and it's always gone down pretty well!

This little five piece ring set is just a small something for anyone who like fashion rings or just a little bling in general. There are loads on offer, but if you want something cheaper for a stocking filler, rather than a main gift, then these are perfect.

I am forever buying these and receiving these as gifts each year, due to them being quite popular when I was at school! It's like a little nostalgic gift for me and my friends when we get them! I've tried to keep away from these this year and get other gifts, but these are amazing for small gifts.

You can find these in any supermarket or drugstore around Christmas as they are tiny enough for stocking fillers and are quite a nice little treat for anyone. I prefer the chocolate coins, but these have that little festive touch to them that makes them irresistible!

A nice little pair of earrings are perfect for Christmas, and in this nice golden colour, they are slightly festive! Like the rings, they are the perfect small gift alongside a bigger one and are perfect as a stocking filler!

Have you started your Christmas shopping and are you doing stocking fillers? Let me know in the comments and have an amazing day and keep safe :)

An Update!

Hello everyone!

So I done a little update back in September about what had been going on with me and things that had been happening, and I've not done another one since! I want to try and do something like this every month or so just so you can maybe get a little peek into my life :) As usual, I'll bullet point things just to make it simpler to read!

  • I am still looking for either another part-time job or a full time one. No where is hiring for more than the Christmas season, or you need so many years experience in things I have never done! One of my friends from work in the same boat as me and she is finding it just as hard.
  • I've almost finished my Christmas shopping! Yes, I started back in September to spread the costs and that, but I have maybe two or three things left and then done.
  • My driving skills have improved a little bit more. I don't know what it is, but I just cannot pull away properly any more, so have been trying to sort this little error out and think I've done that at last. Urrrrgh, it gives me a headache.
  • I am currently going through all of my bedroom and getting rid of things I no longer use, want or need, so I will have more room and it will look way more organised.
  • I've been really good and kept this blog and my YouTube videos going for the past few months! Honestly, I didn't think I would make it past the middle of October, but I have been enjoying myself way to much and have made some friends via both sites.
  • My shopping habit is slowing down! I don't know what it was, but I was spending far too much on clothes, shoes and bags each month to the point where I was broke weeks before payday. I didn't buy anything last month, other than a few cheap beauty bits, but I've done pretty well!
  • I've been to see Wicked up in London, and it's made me want to go there more often to explore, as I only go to the same few places there, so I'd like to go up more to see other places.
  • I figured out how to do my eyeliner properly! It took many failed attempt, drawing on my eyeball and a lot of swearing, but I finally perfected it!!
It's not much of an update, but that is all I feel I need to share as of now! Anything in your lives you'd like to share?

Also, come check me out on these corners of the internet:

Have a great weekend and stay safe :)
