Asos Curve: sHell Yeah!

There's a movement in Belfast right now called #freethenipple. It was started by the lovely girls of Go Girl who decided they were bored of the internets double standard for women and they have made a hilarious music video which I will link below.

Despite the internets apparent revulsion of the female form and all of its small bumpy bits, there are elements of the fashion industry that still seem determined to remind us that they are there and that we should draw as much attention to them as possible.

I'm all for this!

Asos Curves' "Shell Yeah" vest is a prime example of this. Every girl in our generation has grown up coveting a clam bra like the Disney Mermaids we all wish we were. Heck, if you search the Internet deep enough you'll find that some people have actually made some! That's a different post, maybe. This vest gives you the clam bra look without the pesky plankton ickyness.

I picked it up in the recent 20% sale because I rarely buy anything these days that isn't sale but, if I'm being truly, soul searchingly honest with myself, I would probably have bought this full price. It's only £16 and brings me one step closer to being an actual mermaid (which you'll have noticed is a bit of a theme recently).

Watch the Go Girl video here and if you're in Belfast on the 27th June come to their debut gig in The Bar With No Name!

"Brand New Mint In Box"

Of the ways to describe the most premium of items in your makeup collection "Brand New Mint In Box" should not be one of them. One of my most awful habits is buying makeup and then not using it and to my even greater shame it is usually with my most expensive purchases. There is an Alan Carr joke about the extortionate price of a Spanish Onion, the punchline is "when do you save an Onion for best?" This is kind of how I feel about expensive makeup. It's so pretty and so precious that if I get up the courage to actually purchase it, I'm then usually too scared to use it. The pride and shame of this habit is these two items from Dior. The absolutely sublime Dior Skin Nude Tan highlighter which I purchased as a pre-release special edition from House Of Fraser TWO YEARS AGO has sat in box all tightly wrapped up only being shown the light to show off to my friends and family. Yes I do show off my prettiest of pretties to my friends and family...

No Halloween Costume Needed

It's become an accepted norm that once December 1st comes around the nations will don their snowflake print leggings and their novelty jumpers but so far the other seasons are lacking in their effort. Yes, Halloween is famous as being the single greatest costume day of the year but I need October to step and represent in the seasonal apparel game. Thankfully retailers have heard my inner goth cry and have come up with some seriously cute Halloween inspired items. For those who love a slogan tee you have every variation of saying that could possibly be made by rhyming witch with bitch and if you don't say every one of with Emma Roberts' attitude then you need to watch season 3 of American Horror Story immediately! Dressing with the seasons is clearly big money but it doesn't have to cost the world. Here are my choices of how to get into the Halloween spirit all under £30. Boohoo Starting with my favourites because I can! I actually bought the f
