New Look Shoes

There are a few stores that I absolutely love and check up on fairly regularly because I have a problem. Lately, the stock at New Look has been pretty dang awesome. A week or two ago I bought an adorable maroon bobble hat that looks just like one that Topshop had in stock last year, and it was only £5! 

Because I've ordered things online from them before, I get emails from them, and I got an email the other day with a mystery discount and I get a student discount on top of that, so I'm doing a little shopping! Their sale right now is awesome, but I am especially in love with the current stock of shoes. Here are my favorites for under £30.


These are my personal favorites for under £30, but there are tons of other cute shoes. I'm definitely gonna buy a few pairs, so I figured I'd give you guys an idea of how I would style them.



These maroon brogues would look absolutely amazing with a jumper and some jeans, nothing too exciting in color scheme.


For these boots, I would pair them with some black skinny jeans, a clutch, and a cool geometric print oversize shirt.



These heeled cut out boot are a little more formal, so I would pair then with a cute black dress, an interesting bag, and a cute hairstyle.



These boots are a little similar to the previous ones, but the heel height is a good deal lower so they would be good for a little more casual look. I would pair them with a skater skirt, a plain top, and a cute jacket or sweater.


For this last outfit, I love the contrast between the leather look Chelsea boots and this white skirt from zara. Add in a cute black and white casual blouse, and a satchel and you're good to go!

Let me know if you guys get any shoes from New Look! Take advantage of these great deals.

Love,

Caro

Style Steal: Topshop Physics Boots Update!

So a little while ago I posted some similars to these gorgeous, sold out topshop boots (the original post can be found here), and I just found another pair! They're from New Look, and the my look almost identical but they are so much cheaper! 

 

I actually own the Topshop boots, and I've seen the New Look ones in person so I can honestly tell you that they are incredibly similar. The quality of the New Look ones seems a little bit less than the Topshop pair, but since they're about a sixth of the cost, you get what you pay for. The New Look boots are a little more geometric while the Topshop ones are smooth, and the heel of the New Look ones have tiny stripes on them. Overall though, they are extremely similar. So if you're more concerned with the quality and having the boots look exactly the same, I would recommend the Tony Bianco pair from the previous post, but if you want the height of the heel, definitely buy these.

Hope you enjoy!

Love,

Caro

Style Steal: Topshop Physics Premium Strap Boots

There seems to be a pattern lately where all of my blog posts are about shoes. So as not to dissapoint the trend, here's another one!

Topshop used to sell these gorgeous black, heeled, strappy boots that were absolutely gorgeous, but have since sold out. If you weren't lucky enough to get your hands on a pair because they were too expensive or just because you couldn't get them in time, I found some cute similar boots that are still for sale.


Topshop Physics Premium Strap Boots - SOLD OUT

Neither of these boots have heels quite as tall as the original, but they're very cute and have a similar look with all the straps.

Let me know what you guys think!

Love,

Makeup Review: Gold by Giles Lipstick in "Jazz" and "Crush"


A while ago I picked up these two lipsticks from New Look for a couple of pounds each. I think it was about 9 months ago so I don't remember how much it was, and its not available on the website, but they could still be in stores.

I absolutely love these! The colors are great - Crush is a nice, natural looking color that's a little less pink than my MAC Creme Cup lipstick but still great for day, and Jazz is a great, bright pink. I'm not very exciting in my lipstick color, in fact I only recently just started wearing lipstick (I was always a lip balm kind of person) so for this price and this quality, I definitely recommend branching out of your comfort zone. 


Overall, I definitely recommend these if you can get your hands on them. They're not very expensive, and they're a great quality.

Love,

Caro

Denim Dresses

Denim in pieces of clothing other than standard jeans has been a huge trend recently, from printed denim, to denim accents, to denim dresses. The great thing about denim dresses is the denim material - its great for colder weather, and it gives you a unique look.


Here are some cute denim options that I found:


You could pair any of these with some black sandals and sunglasses in the summer, or a pair of patterned tights and some boots in the winter. 

Let me know if any of you guys buy or have these dresses! Or any other denim dresses, for that matter.

Love,

Caro

OOTD - Wisdom Teeth Consultation & National Donut Day!


It was pretty hot outside today, so I went with this sleeveless polka dot dress from T.K. Maxx (T.J. Maxx for the Americans out there), and I wore it with a pair of Topshop sandals, a Monki bag, a pair of New Look sunglasses, and a jumper from Primark (because doctor's offices are always freezing).

Love,

Caro
