PRIDE OF BRITAIN AWARDS

I always look forward to this event every year! Hearing about courageous people and their stories just melts my heart. There truly are some incredible people in this country, and i think this event is so crucial in giving these people the recognition they deserve! Involving celebrities in this award ceremony 
makes, especially for the children, a dream come true. 

Now for some fashion! 


Can Cheryl Cole do any wrong? i think her look was my favourite of the night. This Victoria Beckham dress compliments her figure so nicely and the pale pink is stunning against her skin. I also love her curled hair; this is definitely a HIT
I hate to say it but i think Britain and Ireland's Next Top Model winner Jade Thompson outshines Elle Macpherson. I love the feather detail on Jades dress and how incredible is her sleeked back ponytail?! HIT


Ohh Mel C, what were you thinking? This dress is so unflattering! It does nothing for her figure! The shoes aren't even nice! Two Words.... OH DEAR! MISS
Miss Caroline Flack gets it spot on with this dress. Love this LBLD..(little black lace dress) ;) HIT

Trend Spotting Tuesday #1 If I Were A Boy....

This season you gals will start to borrow clothes from the boys wardrobes. Blazers, shirts and chino styled trousers are ALL a must have! Go on..be ONE OF THE BOYS ;)



1) Blazer: I think no girl should be without a black blazer, it is a wardrobe essential girls! I love the style and shape of this Topshop blazer; not too long and not too short. Adding a blazer to an outfit gives it that extra edge, and can be worn during the evening with a dress or during the day with a skirt of trousers.
2)Shirt: This is also a wardrobe essential! A crisp white shirt is a must have to rock the 'one of the boys look'. TOP TIP: get some thick black ribbon and tie it around the collar to make a bow. This gives a unique yet feminine look.
3)Mini Skirt: I adore this Warehouse skirt. This skirt teamed with the white shirt would make the ultiimate evening wear look! Also, by mixing one male inspired item (for instance the shirt) with a sequined mini skirt means you can still be girly too.
4)Chinos: I love the colour of these chinos. These Warehouse trousers are so easy to team anything with. 
5)Blouse: I really love this blouse; the black and the nude mixed together is so stylish. I love the black bow because it adds a bit of femininity. I would definitely consider purchasing this item. 
6) Clutch Bag: This asos clutch bag is perfect for completing your 'boy' inspired look. If Alexa Chung had carried a bigger bag i think it would have distracted people from her outfit, therefore i think a clutch bag is the perfect size to make a subtle statement.

I am here!


Apologies to all, as i haven't done a post in a while, but it has been my first week back at school, and everything has just been crazy busy! I am officially a 6th former (woop woop!). It's been soo much fun being able to dress in my own clothes, but i have been having to do the whole 'plan your outfit the night before' otherwise the mornings would be C-RAZ-YYY! The school have been really strict with what you're allowed and not allowed to wear, but thankfully i have not been sent home yet for being dressed 'inappropriately!' 
Luckily i have been given such good teachers for my A Level subjects..especially Spanish! My Spanish teacher makes me laugh soo much it's unreal! This week i've also been weirdly obsessed with Maroon 5's song 'Moves Like Jagger' and i can honestly not listen to it without wanting to sing along; so i shall not be listening to it in public, because i don't think i can control myself hehe ;)
Hows everyone's week been? 
Much Love C xx

P.s. i will be making extra effort to keep on top of my blog posts for you all <3

Ohh Romeo!

I've recently found out that Italian director, Carlo Carlei is remaking William Shakespeare's classic, Romeo & Juliet. I've always loved the book, as i'm bit of a sucker for love stories (although the book does end in tragedy); therefore i cannot wait for the film to be made.

After searching for months and months, they've recently completed the cast, and i have to say, by the sound of it, it's set to be massive hit! As Juliet, they have cast, 14 year old True Grit star Hailee Steinfeld. For me they couldn't have picked a more perfect choice, as she's got such amazing talent. Not only is she a brilliant actress but she's also giving herself a name in the fashion industry, already becoming the new face of MIU MIU.



For the role of  Romeo, they have chosen the British, 19 year old rising actor Douglas Booth. Queue *APPLAUSE* !! Could they have chosen a more gorgeous actor?!
For those of you who haven't heard of him, here he is...........




Douglas Booth has starred in Starz miniseries 'Pillars of the Earth' and his new film LOL starring Miley Cyrus is set to be released later on this year. Similarly to Hailee Steinfeld, Douglas has also done modelling, and was part of the Burberry Campaign alongside Emma Watson. 


They've also cast Gossip Girl's Ed Westwick and Kodi Smit-McPhee as family cousins Tybalt and Benvolio.

So, as you can see by the look of all these young and talented actors, the new film version of Romeo and Juliet is set to be very promising!

Bootylicious Bump

Who else was majorly excited when Beyonce announced at the VMA's that she is pregnant?! She performed her song 'Love On Top' in a glittery suit, to which she popped open the button on her suit jacket to showcase her baby bump. During her performance she said " I want you to feel the love growing inside of me"
I have got say, Beyonce and Jay Z's child will be the most enviable child in the whole world! Lucky thing!
