OOTD- Born This Way







Dress: H & M
Jacket: Forever 21
Collar: H & M
Leggings: New Look
Shoes: New Look
Earrings: Primark
Ring: Aldo
Bag: Jimmy Choo

So today I turned the very uninteresting age of 26. This is what I wore for a birthday dinner with the parentals. I'm actually having a wee celebration on Thursday so that should be good. My parents got me quite a few things which I'm sure I will post later, but my big surprise was they are paying for me to go see Lady Gaga's Born This Way Ball on the 9th of September in London. AMAZING. My mum printed out the ticket conformation to give me as the tickets are being sent to my aunt's in Scotland. I'm really excited, I've been a Monster for years and never had a chance to see her in concert before :). If anyone is else going, let me know!

Birthday Blues

It is the depressing fact that it is my birthday in 2 weeks time. I was always really big on birthdays until last year when I turned 25 and realised I ain't getting any younger. So to try and cheer myself up I am on the hunt for the perfect birthday gift to buy myself. The contenders are:
Urban Decay Naked 2 palette. Yes, yes I must be the only person in the world who does not have one of these and I am starting to feel I am missing out. I am a big fan of Urban Decay eyeshadows and have always been impressed with the previous palettes I have bought from them. The only reason I haven't run out and bought it yet is that there is not a counter near me and also I am more just a flick of eyeliner girl.

Jeffery Campbell Blyke Stud in Nude Suede. Currently sold out but I'm on the list for an email when they are back in stock. I already have a pair of Litas in grey and a pair of Night Walk shoes in black. I LOVELOVELOVE my JC shoes and these would be a perfect addition to my small but growing collection.
I spotted this cute yellow dress in Miss Selfridge yesterday. This photo makes it look like a horrible insipid shade of yellow but it's really more of a soft lemon colour with beautiful collar detailing. I am a sucker for anything with a collar.
The Cambridge Satchel is something I have had my eye on for a while. This lilac metallic colour is gorgeous and as previously mentioned I have a serious crush on lilac right now.

The Urban Decay palette is obviously the most affordable out of the above items so I will probably plump for that. I might have to be cheeky and see if I can get my mum to buy me the dress :p
