May Favourites

Hello everyone.

It's that time of the month again where I share what I've been loving this month of May.

I'm kind of glad May has gone super quick as I'm dead excited for June! I'm seeing 5 Seconds of Summer, Fleetwood Mac and I'm going to Glastonbury! Gahhh cannot wait!

So, onto what I've been loving this month....

First up is this super cute skirt from ASOS which has become one of my favourite things to wear. You've probably seen it in a few outfit posts so I won't go into too much detail, but it's fab. You can style it with ankle boots, converse, wedges, whatever top... so versatile.

I adore this bronzer from Barry M. It's so perfect for contouring as it is more ashy tone and build-able so you won't end up looking like an umpa lumpa. It's not only dead cheap, but also used by Perrie Edwards so you can also get cracking cheekbones like the future Mrs Malik.

This conditioner has become my all time fave. It's from Bleach London and a little goes a looong way. It makes my hair really soft and I can actually brush through it in the shower. Now, that's my kind of conditioner.

Now, this backpack may look like it doesn't fit much in, but it does, trust me. I was really lucky that I was given this bag for free from Warehouse when I interned there for one week along with lots of other goodies. I've worn this bag the majority of May because it's a nice size, colour and well, cute.

If you want to read a hilarious book on the crazy world of fashion, this is it! This book has many stories on Angela Clarke's career in the industry and I honestly could not put it down (that's rare, I don't read often). It's so funny and some of the stories may sound crazy, but in this industry some of them did not surprise me. Go buy it, you won't regret it.

What were your May faves?

My Trip To Bleach London

Hello everyone.

On Saturday I finally got round to sorting my roots out. The last time I had my highlights done was the week before Christmas, shocking. Although to be fair, my roots didn't look horrific considering it had been 3 months but still.

I decided I would treat myself and get my hair done at the famous Dalston salon that is Bleach London. Since first opening 5 years ago, Bleach has gone from strength to strength, even releasing their own products. I personally tried the Bleach Rose dye and its FABULOUS! I've been desperate to get my hair done here for a few years but thought it would be a bit out of my price range as the hairdresser I normally go to in MK is pretty cheap (even for MK standards). However, seeing as I got my dream job even if it is temporary (I'll fill you all in when I know how long my contract actually is) I thought I'd treat myself Donna and Tom style (apologies if you don't watch Parks and Recs, that joke will go over your head.)

I loved the whole vibe of Bleach London's salon. It was filled with issues of Vogue, Dazed and Confused, cut out magazine editorials splashed across the walls and even barbies with pastel hair. Obvs. The salon was obviously packed with Bleach London's famous products as well as polaroids of the team. My favourite addition to the salon was the cutest little black pug which totted around an slept happily next to customers on the sofas. I also adored the playlist which included the whole Beyonce - Beyonce album, Justin Timberlake, old school Black Eyed Peas, Diana Ross, Lana Del Rey and lots of Motown. Sassy.

                              

So, what did I get done you are probably wondering. I had a half head of highlights, two toners and a straight blow-dry which was done by Charmaine. What I loved about Bleach is that all of the stylist really know what they are talking about and give great ideas on what is a good idea and not so much. You really are in capable hands there which is always a great bonus. So here is me before... (soz about the picture I forgot to take one before so its a close up from a past OOTD)

The sun is making my roots not look as dark however in person think at least a shade darker. My overall hair is also quite blonde. Now here is me after my makeover....

I looove the final colour! It's more natural and the perfect shade that I have desperately been trying to achieve for just over a year now! What I also love is you know when you normally leave the hairdresser after a dye job your hair tends to feel a bit dry and full of products? Not at Bleach. My hair feels crazy soft and clean! 

I would 100% recommend anyone to go have their hair done at Bleach London and I will be making myself another appointment in June!

Thanks Bleach London for my new hair.
