British Blogger Selection | Favourite Clothes Shop

Hello everyone! Today I'm going to be doing my second post for the British blogger selection. If you don't know what this is you can click here

The theme for this week is our favourite clothes shop! I love shopping for clothes but there is only one store that stands out.. guess what it is? yep, you guessed it! Primark! 



I absolutely adore shopping in Primark. Everything is so cheap and cheerful. Primark don't just do clothes they do other bits too, which I love because you can always go in there and find many different things which you wouldn't normally find if you just went to somewhere like Topshop, e.g. homeware items!

The price of all Primark items are so so cheap and affordable for everyone. They always keep up to date with the trends to make sure they're offering the best range of items. The quality of some items aren't always the best, but you get what you payed for and if you look after the item then it'll last you longer than you thought it would. 

The one thing I don't like about Primark is that they don't have a website where you can buy things off, arrghhhh! 

What's your favourite clothing store?

OOTD

Ooh, two post in one weekend? Steady on Luce! haha.

Today I thought I'd share with you the outfit which I wore today, I only went up town, nothing special! But I really liked how it looked together, so here goessss! :)

Dress: Topshop, Blazer: Primark
So I paired this cute Topshop skater-style dress with the blazer I got from Primark the other week. The blue detailing on the blazer is what made me pair it up with the dress. The dress was only £12 in the sale at Topshop and the blazer is £13 and I believe Primark still sell them. It is such a versatile piece so grab it while you can!


I didn't add any accessories because I wanted it to look like a simple "everyday look" rather than a evening outfit. I put some black tights on which were from Primark because I thought I would be too cold with my legs uncovered.


For shoes I went with my burgundy/maroon converse from Office to add a different colour to the outfit.


For the make-up with this outfit, I went with a very neutral eye with a slight darker outer corner. For my base I used my Match Perfection foundation and Natural Collection pressed powder.

I'd love to get some inspiration for outfits this Autumn so if you have any OOTDs on your blog, please leave them below! :)

Lots of love, Lucy x

Autumn/Fall Tag!

As it's now Autumn and I've been meaning to do a tag of some sort on here, I thought why not do the Autumn tag?! So let's get to it :-)

Favourite thing about Autumn?
My favourite thing would be the weather, it's not too cold and it's not too hot, it's normally just right so you don't have to layer up loads of clothing and worry about being chilly.

Favourite drink?
My favourite drink would be a hot chocolate, you honestly can't beat a hot drink when the weathers getting cooler. My favourite is the Cadbury hot chocolate

Favourite scent/candle?
I'm honestly not a candle person at all and most of the scents give me a headache so I'm going to have to pass this question! Sorry all you candle lovers out there ;-)

Favourite lipstick?
My favourite lipstick to wear during Autumn would have to be the Rimmel Kate Moss in 001. It's a deep red and looks so good with monochrome clothes.



Go to moisturiser?
My favourite moisturiser of all time, not just in the Autumn is the Simple kind to skin hydrating light moisturiser. It's such an easy and cheap moisturiser and keeps my skin hydrated.




Go to colour for the eyes?
I always go to neutral colours throught all months but I like to make it a bit more smokey during the colder months, I also like plum-purples in the crease for the weekends.

Favourite music/band/singer to listen to?
I don't listen to anything different really, whichever songs and artists are popular at the time! I try to find some calming music if I'm listening to it during school whilst I'm doing school work or homework!

Favourite outfit to wear? (I.e boots and a scarf combo)
I like to wear different things during Autumn, things like thick jumpers and a scarf, a blazer with a pair of converse and jeans, just the normal autumnal clothing, whatever keeps me warm:-)

Autumn treat?
I wouldn't say I buy anything differently, just the essentials for Autumn like a thick warm coat, jumpers, more autumnal coloured nail varnishes, extra DVD's for them cold nights in, things like that!

Favourite place to be?
Without a doubt, I love being on the sofa snuggled under a blanket watching an old movie with a mug of hot chocolate and some popcorn!

So that's me finished with the Autumn tag, if you do this tag please leave a link in the comments so I can check it out and read about your favourite Autumn things!
Lots of love, Lucy x
