Zara Printed Jacket | OOTD

I added this kimono to my wishlist here a few months ago and have seen it EVERYWHERE since. Its like it was calling out to me "buy me Georgia I'd look so nice with ripped jeans or cut off shorts or on the beach on holiday..." Who am I to refuse something that speaks so much sense? 

I find sizes in Zara very odd, I'm different everytime I go in there, I got this in a small and it fits really nicely. I think as I'm only 5"3 if I'd got a bigger size it would have dragged along the floor! 

I want to work out a way to wear this for work, maybe with a leather skirt? What do you think? Any ideas very welcome!

January Favourites!

Hiya! How are you?

It's time for January Faves! I really like doing these posts, and I love reading other peoples too! It's nice to have a little round up of what you love, it makes me feel all appreciative! I've had a busy January! I kicked off the New Year in Cambridge with all my lovely friends, then I did the last two weeks of my internship at ASOS which was amazing, then I moved back to uni and braced myself to get going with my dissertation :/ It's going ok, but still a long way to go! How was your month? I do like a catch up! Right let's get on with it, hope you enjoy :)

Tartan Scarf H&M

It's been crazy weather recently, Portsmouth must be the windiest place ever, (or maybe I'm just not used to living near the sea) and I hate it because I have to walk to uni with an uncontrollable fringe but I do like to wrap up in this massive scarf from H&M and keep warm!

Body Shop Beautifying Oil

I got this in a set for Christmas from my boyfriend and it's really lovely! I've never really been into using oils, I love the body shop body butters and have a little collection going but I've recently been neglecting them for this! I really love using it, it dries really quickly so ideal to use in a rush and it's really moisturising on the skin. Apparently it can be used on your face and hair too so I'll have to give that a try!

Wah Nails Book of Nail Art

I also got this for Christmas from my little sister and it's amazing! I've been trying some of the ideas from it which you may have seen on instagram if you follow me, and the fact that it has stickers in the back excites the child in me greatly!

Soap and Glory Lipstick in Pom Pom

I'm so glad Soap and Glory bought out more colours in their lipstick range because it's such good quality lipstick and lasts ages. This colour is such a lovely berry colour and I've been really enjoying wearing it over January!

Vivienne Westwood Naughty Alice

I also got this for Christmas from my Boyfriend! I'm sure you've all smelt it, it's really lovely and I'm doing a full review on it really soon so look out for that!

I've also really been loving Revenge Series 2! AMAZING!

What have you been loving this month?

Thanks for reading :)

Review | Vivienne Westwood Let it Rock

I haven't ever done a perfume review because I'm not the best at describing smells but I got a few really nice ones for Christmas and thought I'd give it a go! Apologies if my descriptions make no sense, if you think I'm talking rubbish just look at the pictures of the pretty bottles!

'Vivienne Westwood's Let it Rock is an Oriental which opens with top notes of bergamot and freesia, which lead to a jasmine heart and dry down to a base of amber and patchouli.' 

Yeah... that's wasn't my writing unfortunately, I wish! Prepare for my less eloquent description...

This isn't a new perfume, I think it was released in 2007 but I have never seen it before now! My Nan bought it for me for Christmas, she knows I love Vivienne Westwood and it was such a thoughtful present :) First off I love the bottle! It's really thin and tall and the lid is the iconic orb! The glass has a sheen to it which in the light, reflects rainbow colours and the name is printed down the front of the bottle as if written in lipstick.

It's quite a strong fragrance and lasts all day, I only put a tiny bit on as I think it could be quite over powering if you used a lot. I'd describe it as a more grown up perfume, it's more musky than floral. I'm not sure what patchouli smells like but I can definitely recognise the jasmine! 
It's a really mature scent and definitely more of a special occasion perfume than one you wear every day!

Very.com stock it, take a look here.

December Faves!

Hello!

It's time for December favourites! Yes 6th Jan is actually the time it's meant to be done you see, I'm not actually a week late! Anyway, I'm really sad December is finished! Although I am glad the Christmas decorations will come down today because every time I see them it reminds me Christmas is over for another year :( So here's some of my favourite things from my favourite month of the year! Hope you enjoy :)

Models own Ibiza mix

This has been so nice to wear over Christmas but I think I'll deffo still wear it in the new year, sparkles never go out of fashion! This has big and little bits of glitter in as well so it spreads out over the nail really nicely and looks great!

Dawn French - A Tiny Bit Marvellous

I read this whole book in a week over Christmas travelling to and from London on the train. It's such a good book, Dawn French writes it so well! It's actually hilarious, so much so that I was laughing out loud on the train at one point, awks. I'd really recommend reading it!

Topshop Lipstick in Nevada

I've been wearing this a lot over December in the daytime, it's a really nice light nude colour which is also a bit pinky. I love the packaging of Topshop lipsticks too!

Vivienne Westwood Flower Orb Necklace

I got this for my 21st which was near the beginning of December and I haven't taken it off since, (apart from when I go out drinking because I can't be trusted with something so dainty when under the influence of alcohol.)

Zara bag

I love this bag, it's like Mary Poppin's suitcase! It fits so much stuff in it! My boyfriend picked it up the other day and looked shocked at how heavy it is, and I had to then explain to him why it is essential that I carry around a notepad, a diary, a book, a mirror, my purse, coins lining the bottom, my makeup bag... hairspray... 10,000 receipts.... nail polish...empty glasses case...

I have also been loving watching Vlogmas on Youtube this month especially Jim Chapman's Channel! He's hilarious and so excited about everything! 

I'll leave you with my fave song on my fave album for December, Rihanna's Unapologetic!

What have been your fave things over December?

Hello, remember me?

Hellooo!

How are you?

Long time no see ay! I'm very sorry I have been a bit of a rubbish blogger lately, I had uni deadlines, then my birthday weekend and then I started my internship at Asos this Monday! 

So now now I'm free for the first day in two weeks I'm going to organise lots of posts for you all to schedule throughout the week :) 

This post is going to be all about my 21st birthday, which was fab! And I got spoiled by all my lovely friends and family,  and I really wanted to show you some of the lovely bits and pieces :) So I hope you all enjoy this, as these are my favourite sorts of posts to read!

First off my Auntie Jo made me this AMAZING cake, it's the prettiest thing I've ever seen and I didn't want to cut it up but it also tastes amazing so I'm glad I did! 

My boyfriend bought me this very sweet little Thomas Sabo charm bracelet :) Isn't it cute! I also love the little boxes Thomas Sabo stuff comes in, it reminds me of Confessions of a Shopaholic for some reason!

My lovely friend Nadine bought me this lovely hat from Zara!

My mum very kindly bought me this Vivienne Westwood flower necklace, it's so dainty and sweet and I really love it :)

You'll never guess who got this Butler and Wilson skull necklace for me...my Nan! She's so 'trendy'!

I also got the 21 charm from my sister to put on my charm bracelet that I got as a special present for my 18th birthday :) That makes me feel rather old! :/

My friend Hannah also bought me this whiteboard Iphone cover which is such a good idea! I can draw new bits on it everyday, and when I went out for my birthday all my friends drew a little something on it for me! :)

This is definitely my favourite, my Mum got her friend to make this photo album for me full of pictures of friends and family, it's very sweet and personal. I didn't want to put the whole thing on the internet but here's one page! Ahh, Jelly shoes... If only I could wear you now without looking like a weirdo.

 I also got some clothes, my friend Hannah got me the grey skull vest from New Look, and I spent my birthday money on the rest :) The Jacket was from H&M, the denim shirt is from Topshop, the boots are from Topshop, Tartan Scarf from H&M and the bag is from Zara! :)

I hope you enjoyed this post, I had a lovely birthday and I'm also rather excited to be 21, I can drink in America and drive in Hong Kong!

Thanks for reading!
