#OOTD Intern Interview Outfit

On Monday I had the interview I had been waiting for. It was for a years paid placement at Lancôme PR and ever since I have been thinking about it non stop, I want it so much. 

But what do you wear to the interview of your dreams? Instead of being conventional and wearing a black skirt suit or dress I decided to wear my tailored short dungarees with a printed shirt. I kept it conventional in the sense that I wore black but I wanted something that they would remember without being over the top. 

I think it worked well, and was a nice twist on office wear - as well as being a key high-street fashion look but I suppose you can be the judge of that! 

Old School Days

I'm taking it back to primary school days with my new shoes and white socks. This Topshop buy is just what I was looking for for summer, they even have a slight heel which gets me up to about average height. 

These shoes are so versatile and literally go with any outfit, you can wear them with socks, tights or barefooted. 

The best thing about these are that I got them discounted. A website which sells Topshop and other named brands at as little as half the price. This website is a goldmine. However, not all the items are brand new and some have defects, just be sure to read the description.

Returns are also near enough impossible, you get one week to register it and send them back, but I don't feel like that is enough time to decide whether you want them or not. 

Apologies for the poor quality pictures.

eBay Find

I think most people forget about eBay when it comes to online shopping, but you can find some of the best pieces on there.

I've been meaning to blog about this clutch for a while, but me and my friend spotted it on an eBay shop online. I love an over-sized clutch (mainly because the bigger the clutch the smaller you look)  but this one came in so many colours it was difficult to say no. 

I went for red, it isn't my first red bag so maybe I should have gone for a different colour but I couldn't help myself. Red is such a good block colour and usually works well as a statement piece.

There aren't many places you buy a brand new clutch for £16, and this comes with a free pack of hairbands, which is always handy because I never have any (where do they go - along with hair grips?!). 

I'm tempted to order it in more colours...

Looking Prime

My new addition to my makeup bag is w7 Prime Magic. I have had it for a couple of weeks now and I really like it, it makes your skin so soft and leaves the perfect base for your foundation.
I got this off amazon for around £3.50 including postage, and they had three different types. I went for anti-redness, but there is anti-dullness and standard primer.
I used to use L'Oreal which was also very good but I won't be changing back anytime soon.

New Shoes

Who doesn't like new shoes? Especially shoes that won't dent your bank balance!

I found these beauties on eBay for £15.99 (plus £2.99 delivery) and they were just what I was looking for. I needed some new black heels because the ones that I have are either knackered or way too high to wear on casual nights out. They're a five inch heel so they're high enough, but not crippling. The online eBay shop has a wide variety of other wedges and heels, but these were my favourite.

The best thing was, I ordered them early in the day and they were delivered by the next day. There were no problems at all.

Kukee Jewellery

One of my friends loves jewellery, she has so many pieces if you ever need anything to go with your outfit, her jewellery box would have the solution.
By chance, she stumbled upon a jewellery website called www.kukee.com which had some lovely pieces for really cheap prices. Some of the stuff is just like topshop for a quarter of the price. And some are beautifully handmade.
Seeing as my loan came in and you can never have too much jewellery, I went on a spree. I ordered two necklaces and two rings to add to my collection.
The postman delivered a little brown box today which enclosed some bright pink tissue paper with my goodies inside!
This is the first time I have ordered from there and it was so straight forward, and perfectly packaged. They even threw in a free gift! A little knuckle ring for the top of your finger.
I love all of my pieces, the only thing I would say is watch out with rings because one of mine is one size only and it just it my fingers, I'm usually a S-M.
I will definitely be shopping on there again.

Coconut Hair Care

My hair is naturally dark blonde but I had a few highlights put in over the past year to brighten it up. I've always had medium thickness but naturally oily, straight hair. But since the bleach has taken its toll, I have been finding it very hard to keep it in good condition.
That was until I found these beauties. Boots have their own range of coconut and almond products for normal to dry hair. I first started with the leave in conditioner and fell in love. At uni, our shower is terrible and leaves your hair in knots every time you wash it, but since spraying this into my hair when it is damp, it has become so much more manageable. I swear by this stuff. And it smells like holiday.
So today I went out and bought the conditioner as well, to see if it can sort out my dry ends. I hope it works!
