This is what I wore to the London Bloggers Party a couple of weeks ago – it was sooooo sunny that day that these photos are a tad bright and you can’t quite tell how lovely and neon my nail polish is – but anyhoo. This Zara jacket is my new favourite purchase. I got it off Ebay as I couldn’t quite justify the price new and it was a bargain at £20!!!!!!!! Its so soft and has lovely stud detailing and 3/4 sleeves and as its white is not out of place I don’t think on a sunny day as oppose to black which would look weird. 

I decided to go for a casual look as I was off to the theatre that night to see my friend in Spamalot so I teamed it with my newest charity shop find, these polka dot skinny jeans / jeggings. 

They are originally Marks & Spencers – where I would never think to shop but I found them in the wonderful Oxfam along with a super bright floral shirt which I’ll try and blog about too. They were about £4.99 I think which is super bargainous.

The handbag is my old faithful Primark which just happened to have polka dots on it too but I mostly chose because it fits my Nikon SLR in and I went for a mash up of new and vintage jewellery. I had bought this vintage necklace for my wedding but decided it was too bling, but I love a bit of sparkle with a simple tee. The T shirt is Topshop and has cute cut outs on the shoulders and comes in other colours too. I found the sleeves too long a length for my taste so kept rolling them up.

I’m really loving my Revlon lip butter in Juicy Papaya and have since bought another colour. I do find it hard to capture the colour of my makeup on camera – I always seem to look like I have nothing on. Would love some top photography tips from any other Beauty bloggers if you have any??? How do you get your makeup photos true to life?

I also popped a few snaps of the bits that came in the goodie bag below. I love the Laser Cut Blogger Necklace and don’t think I’ll be taking it out of its box it looks so pretty. Looking forward to trying out the Rouge Bunny Rouge makeup bits and have already slapped some Palmers Tan on my legs!!

I have a huge plastic box now full of bits I need to try out and blog about now that my blog is focusing on Beauty as well as fashion.

What do you like to find in a goodie bag??
