MILKANDDIAMONDS

MILK AND DIAMONDS 

So I recently discovered a cute boutique called "MILKANDDIAMONDS" and I was so delighted when this company contacted me as there was so many things I loved! It's a boutique that I find sells everything you see the celebs wearing, but for a much better price, which is always a huge advantage.

I love the name, logo, and clothes, the whole website is a win for me! They kindly offered to send me a few things to show you guys, and here is what I chose...

I literally just recieved this parcel so am yet to show you what it all looks on, but I am already living in the Lily Leopard Lounge Suit which btw you have to buy from here, I've seen other boutiques selling this for over £50! Milk and Diamonds sell for just £26... How can you not buy this?!

Next, I chose this Sleeveless Coat which I have seen on so many celebs and I just love, so am delighted to own one, this is just £20!

Finally, my favourite, and I have mentally planned so many outfits with this amazing Addie Crochet Lace Top, which is just £18!

My love for this website does not end there, here are the other items from this store I wish to buy...

So these are my top 3! The Kendall Jumpsuit, it says it in the name, its so Kendal Jenner, and I loved it when she wore a jumpsuit similar, so I'd love to try this. Next, Grey Kim K Two Piece I am yet to own such a trendy two piece, literally they are everywhere, and I so want one! This last pick is the Hannah Multi-way Dress which is available to pre-order and its a dress the can literally be worn 100 different ways, which is perfect for me, considering I am so bad when it comes to repeating my outfits! Also, the fit and quality looks amazing!

Be sure to check out this website for amazing clothes and service! Email me what you life from the website, I'd love to see!

IT'S A REVOLUTION

IT'S A REVOLUTION

I was delighted to receive these palettes as a late birthday gift as I have been looking at these palettes for quite a while, but to be quite honest they completely slipped my mind. Having only owned them for two days now, I feel my opinion is pretty clear... I LOVE THIS BRAND.

First, I received the "ULTRA Professional Eyeshadow, Flawless Matte Palette" I can't describe my love for this eye-shadow palette already! I always love matte looks, with foundations, lips, eyes, everything... but this is just wow. The powders are so soft, and almost felt like butter to swatch. The pigmentation and colour pay off from all 32 shadows is even better then my MAC Palette which was so so surprising! I really would recommend this palette to everyone from beginners, as every look is possible to achieve in this one palette, and for collectors such as me, as it is so refreshing to find such a good product in the drug store!

Next is the Radiant Lights highlighter palette, and the pictures of swatches above shows just what the product can do! I love a good highlighter, and this palette has given me 3 to die for shades, can you believe this brand? I'm so excited to raid this counter no I truly know what this brand has to offer!

What Revolution products do you recommend?

HIRETHECATWALK.CO.UK

IF GOD WAS A WEBSITE

Okay, so I have recently fallen in love with something that may save us all... www.hirethecatwalk.co.uk

Ever wanted a dress you just don't have the money for? Or are you like me, and only wear something once when it comes to a party, so you've spent all that money for one wear? We are all like this, and this website is the answer to our cries.

I was delighted when I was contacted to work with them, and was amazed by the concept of hiring a dress worth £150-£300 for just £34.99 and sending it back after you've worn it.

For my 18th, I was so lucky to be able to take my pick of the lot and be sent the beautiful JADE Dress, which is the Three Floor Little Beauty Dress, and everything about this dress felt amazing to wear. 

So here's a range of pictures so you can get an idea of how the dress photographs, and how perfect is it! It felt so different to anything I've worn before, it was such a high quality dress and a pleasure to wear. I got so many compliments on this beautiful number, and there's so many dresses I am yet to order... And here they are.

These are my top 3! I can assure you there are so many more I love on this website! The first dress is by Three Floor and it is their CHLOE Dress, it's so perfect for a summer party. The next one is by Finders Keepers and is called their AUBREY Dress, I have loved this dress since I first see Lauren Pope sport it, but it is always sold out, so I shall be hiring mine soon. Finally, this beautiful Forever Unique frock, which I also see on a TOWIE star, Lucy Meck, and have loved ever since. This beaut if called their PIPA Dress and again, is always sold out!

DAYTIME OOTD

BYE SUMMER DRESSES, SKIRTS AND SHORTS... I AM BACK IN THE UK

So I'm back from California, as sad as I am, I was excited to get ready and go see the people I have missed over my holiday. It was a nice, sunny day, but we can never be sure with England's unpredictable weather so in the spring/summer time in always tend to invest in coloured jackets so I look summery but am not suffering the rain and wind we inevitably get during the summer. 

So this was my final look, I paired a normal pair of Topshop Jaimie Jeans with my favourite top at the mo, from Primark! And my new Pale Blue Leather Jacket which I recently bought in Forever 21 so you will be able to find it. It wouldn't be very Aimee of me to not pair a statement necklace at such a given opportunity, so I wore this Blue Stone Necklace from ZARA. Finally, I wore my most loved shoes the Office Extravaganzas in Mink Grey. This outfit was so comfy and easy to put together, I recommend a few coloured jackets, some statement necklaces and a simple white blouse to help you glide through this summer, you can't go wrong!

PERFECT HOLIDAY OOTD

PERFECT HOLIDAY OOTD

Yet another wonderful day in a place I would love to call my home, San Diego, California. Last night I went for dinner at a restraunt my family always return to when here, Joes Crab Shack. It's a casual place, with a sort of TGIs vibe, located right on the beach, so it calls for a casual outfit.

I paired a causal Khaki boyfriend shirt with a V neckline, from ZARA, but recently I have seen in H&M if you can't find this ZARA shirt. To make it super causal I tucked it in a pair of Levi Black High Waisted Vintage Shorts, which I purchased from Urban Outfitters, however you can find these on eBay boutiques for MUCH cheaper! Don't make the mistake I did, although I willl say Urban Outfitters would be better if you are willing to splurge as all Vintage Levi Shorts are just vintage Levi jeans that have been cut, I find Urban Outfitters have more professionally cut pairs. Finally, gees sandals went perfect as I had a black leather bag with a gold chain, and these sandals are from Primark! They are so comfy, and are perfect for me as I love a black and gold combo.

LOS ANGELES OOTD

WHAT I WORE: LOS ANGELES

I was blessed enough to visit one of my favourite places on earlth once again, Los Angeles. My family absolutely love this place as my mum use to live here and work at the only and only Ivy, where of course we ate during our time here! Last time I visited LA I went more towards Venice Beach so the dress code was more casual, but this time I was going to Beverly Hills, and visiting places such as Rodeo Drive so I needed to up my game a little.

So I am missing my full length mirror at home, but here is the only photo I snapped of my outfit yesterday. Although it was Beverly Hills, it was just a simple Monday afternoon so I needed a happy medium between casual and dressy, and here it is. I paired a bright neon yellow statement boxy top from ASOS with a simple pair of floral shorts incorporating the yellow from my top, and the black I used to incorporate a black bag and matching sandal. My shorts were purchased from ASOS, and the bag you can semi see in this picture is from a shop called HQ, which isn't everywhere, however the brand of the bag is Tom & Lucy if that helps, I have also seen this bag in TOWIES Lucy's Boutique.

LIPGLOSS LOVE

LIPGLOSS LOVE

So I went into a Cosmetic Company Store and see the Urban Decay Lip Junnkies, which you will probably know if you have bought a Naked 2 Palette, they usually give a little sample of this with the palette. I loved my sample as it is like a Lip Collegen that plumps your lips, as well as giving an amazing colour. These are normally sold in Debenhams for around £20, but I got them for $5 each! I couldn't believe it so I bought the four colours that caught my eye!

I bought shades Peroxide, Flushed, Streak & Naked 2. I feel like all I've been buying is lip products out here, but what they have to offer is so fab compared to what I can get in the UK, plus they will all be used as I love lip products. These can be worn alone, or on top of a lipstick, either way they will tingle your lips and plump them. I would recommend the Urban Decay Lip Junkies to everyone!

JUST ONE MORE BAG

JUST ONE MORE

I went shopping today in San a Diego, this time to an outlet centre . I bought so much as compared to the UK the prices were so much better, and this DKNY bag I see in House of Fraser for £225 cost me just $120, which is about  £80! Then the purse, which is around £125 in the UK cost me just $50 (£33) crazy, I know!

This bag is perfect for me as I wanted a huge bag for university, plus I love the colour, it's quite summery but it's not a bag I can't use all year round, and the price was too good to pass! I wish I could've bought more but my suitcase would not allow this, along with my dad, I already got a eye roll at the first bag I bought!

CVS HAUL

DRUGSTORE HAUL... HOW AMERICAN

When I am on holiday I'm not really a relax in the sun type of girl, I wonder on my own, and on my travels I found a CVS! I straight away thought to go in here to get some American Drugstore brands I can't get hold of easily in the UK, these brands being Milani and NYX.

Let's start with the Milani Lipsticks...They smell amazing, and the pigmentation/colour pay off is unbelievable for a cheap lipstick I bought for $6 each, so basically £4! I wanted to buy more but they were all sold out, the Milani section was literally empty, I knew it was a popular brand but wow.
This Floral Blusher is to die for, I haven't tried it yet, it's too pretty! This is also Milani, and also smells amazing. I swatched the tester in CVS and again the pigmentation was amazing, I am on the hunt for another store with more stock during my time here.
Moving on to NYX, this is a brand I already have a few items as they do have a UK website, but I am always reluctant buying make up online as I like to see shades and test products then and there before buying. I tried the Butter Gloss as soon as I got in, I was so excited, these are amazing. It is like silk on your lips, so creamy and buttery, and they are not just sheer glosses they have strong colours to them, which is a huge bonus, as most glosses don't have much colour pay off. Finally, the Matte Lip Cream, I have been wanting this for ages, and would've bought more but they were all sold out really, I am yet to try but I will keep you updated.

HANDBAG HEAVEN

HANDBAG HEAVEN

Yesterday I went shopping at the fabulous Fashion Valley Mall in San Diego and it's fair to say I shopped til I absolutely dropped, but I got some bargains! I bought so much in the accessories and make up departments but my buys of the day were my two bags!

My Forever 21 Tote was just $30, roughly £20 in the UK, and honestly it looks like something I could buy from ZARA for over £50, so I am so so pleased with this buy!
Now, the real bargain, my Michael Kors Gold Tote which can be found in shops such as John Lewis, House of Fraser, etc. in the UK for around £260, I got this in MACYS for just $155 dollars, so £100! It was 25% anyway, then another 25% for Easter, you wouldn't catch promos like that the UK, the shopping is amazing here, them Americans don't know how lucky they are!

MY FIRST SEPHORA EXPERIENCE

MY FIRST SEPHORA EXPERIENCE

I am currently in San Diego, California on holiday and went shopping today, on my travels I come across a Seophora! All make up lovers can relate to the excitement my family just did not understand...

So, here's what I bought! (So far!)
As soon as I see Anastasia Beverly Hills I ran towards it, as I should, we are not blessed with such a brand in the UK. I bought the Dip Brow Pomade in Caramel which I've wanted for so long, but it is such a hassle to buy Anastasia in the UK I have just never had the chance! Next, the Contour Kit which I just keep staring at, it is beautiful, I am obsessed with it already! I will definitely be dedicating a whole blogpost to this work of art when I am back in the UK.
From the MAC Counter I of course added one more lipstick to the collection, this beauty being Honey Love! It's a matte darker nude, a little lighter then the ever so famous Velvet Teddy, very similar. I then bought Pro Longwear Concealer in NC15, as I have heard nothing but fabulous reviews on this item, so it was a must try. Then I just got a mini strobe cream as I love it and didn't bring it on holiday with me!
Finally, these two NARS Lip Pencil Lipsticks were gifted to me by Sephora as my birthday just passed, how cute! No where in England would be so generous... Free makeup on my birthday, can I just never leave?

I will most probably do reviews on the majority of these products but any products you want to see just comment below.
