The Blazer Craze

Blazers are the perfect way to smarten or dress up any outfit, they are a simple piece that adds a touch of class to your wardrobe without a designer price tag. Although blazers have always been around since business suits are a uniform for many people. But it is only recently that blazers have blossomed in the fashion world, from pastel lightweight ones for the summer to patterned thick blazers for the winter, blazers now come in many different forms. But each one styles an outfit in a way no other jacket or cardigan can. 

Theyskens Theory Spring/ Summer collection of this year plays on the style, shape and fit of a blazer. From structured dresses with peplum trimming to loose fitting shorts and pure white blazers, the collection is modern and chic. 

Taking inspiration from Theyskens Theory, I decided to purchase my own white blazer, at a little more affordable price. H&M has a large selection of blazers to choose from ranging from £20 to £50. 

Blazer: H&M £39

The great thing about blazers is that they flatter the female body shape with shoulder pads that even out your hips, giving us the beautiful hourglass figure that we all dream of. Since its white, it is a perfect summer blazer for those chilly uk evenings.

Excited by my new purchase I wanted to show you 4 ways that I decided to style this blazer.

Summer is just brushing against our fingertips and I can't wait! With this fabulous weather England is having (teasing us), It's the perfect time to get out your summer wardrobe and get organized for the holidays.

With summer comes beach trips and pool parties. Every girl needs the perfect bikini but lets be honest, one is never enough. So I have come up with a list of the essential bikini styles you need for every summer holiday occasion.

For those late night pool parties, this bikini will keep you glowing under the moonlight all night. The contrast of the bright colours against your skin will also make your tan look darker. 

2. Animal Print 
This bikini make sure you rock up to the beach in style and looking as sexy as ever,  unleash your wild side as animal prints are so in this season.

3. A Classy One 
You never know when you're going to have a summer fling and dive into the unknown, so this bikini is for those last minuet dates to keep you looking sexy and sophisticated.  

4. Tie Dye 
Tie Dye is always in during the summertime, the mixture of colours makes your bikini stand out and look oh so Coachella. 

5. Frills 

Now this bikini may look a little boring compared to the rest, but frills are extremely flattering and will make your boobs look a cup size bigger. Now thats impressive.

Kylie Jenner Inspired Makeup Tutorial

Kylie Jenner has been all over the gossip sites recently with her supposedly sending Justin Bieber nudes. But rumors aside, there is no doubt that she is absolutely stunning and like her sisters, the Kardashians, her makeup is always perfect. Kylie's instagram is like a personal magazine all about her. I have already taken inspiration from her hair style, hence the short cut. But now I think it's time to steal her makeup too! 

Firstly, using your normal foundation, powder and concealer make your face up but remeber Kylie's makeup is quite thick so apply it generously without making yourself look orange! 

Then its time to get into the detail of her makeup. Kylie's eyebrows are her defining feature, she wears them dark and bold so make sure you outline them sharply and fill them in with an eyebrow pencil. Pluck any loose hairs that don't fit well into the shape (It's best if you do this a while before you start your makeup but I'm not that organized) 

Kylie's is usually a smokey brown with an ombre effect. Start with a white shimmery base and highlight under your eyebrow, then with a light gold colour cover your eyelid. Once these colours are set go over the back half of your eyelid with a darker brow and blend well. This will give you eyeshadow that subtle ombre effect. 

I used the Naked 2 pallet to archive this look with the colours Verve for the white shimmer under the eyebrow, Suspect for the first covering of my eyelid and Snakebite for the dark smokey effect on the edge and finally a touch of Busted to darken it slightly. 

Apply black eyeliner to your water line and to the bottom of your eyelid to give your eye more definition and outline. Then use mascara to darken and lengthen your eyelashes, Kylie's eyelashes are always super long, so the more the merrier! 

Highlighter helps to brighten up your makeup and define certain aspects of your face. Kylie will usually apply it under her eyes, down her nose and above her eyebrows. Apply it lightly to these areas and blend it in so that its lighter but not too obvious. 

Using a mixture of light blusher and bronzer, highlight your cheeks and define your cheekbones by brushing the powers up your jawline. This will lighten up your face and help to make your face look thinner and more defined. 

Finally, apply a nude or pale coloured lipstick. Kylie often changes from dark lipstick to natural lipstick a lot but since this the eye makeup is so dramatic, a natural lip gives it the subtle finishing touch needed.
