Barry M Instant Foil Effects Review
I love receiving late christmas presents, don't you?!
One of my friends Lily gave me some Barry M Nail Polishes a few days ago and I absolutely love them!
She got me these two foil effects nail polishes and a blue glittery one (colour no.297)
I was going to buy the lilac foil effects when I saw it in Boots the other day but I am so glad I didn't now. Anyway I thought I'd show you all what they are like!
I painted most of my nails silver but I like painting my second finger a different colour so I tried out the purple. I'm amazed that you only need one coat of this nail polish and that it looks amazing too!
The nail polish seems to be very chip resistant too which is always a plus! (yay!)
I'm so used to having nail polish which chips within two days!
I am so tempted to buy the gold one now too...
What do you think of Foil Effects Nail Polish? Or are you more of a Barry M crackle girl?

Wool + Leather
Shorts - Missguided
First outfit post of the year (yay!)
I've set myself a goal to post about my outfits more!
I think it's every bloggers nightmare right now to took outfit photos! The lighting is rubbish and most bloggers are so busy in the day with work/school/college/uni that's all the daylight hours gone :(
I really like this outfit because It's quite simple but on trend. I love love love this white sweatshirt it's perfect to go with jeans, leggings and shorts! I love these leather panelled shorts from Missguided. I think they do a similar pair in Topshop!
Have you got a favourite jumper? What have you bought recently?
Style Crush: Caggie Dunlop from Made In Chelsea
Caggie Dunlop is an English Singer & Actress. She's best known for her role in E4 tv show Made in Chelsea. As one of the main characters in the show and her love life as the main headline she's living life in the spotlight. I have always loved how 'casual' she looks on the show and how she mixes high-street with designer.
I also think that she has amazing hair too! I really love how she makes her hair look effortless and how she's now being called England's 'Blake Lively!'
What do you think of Caggie? Do you like her style?

Happy New Year - Life In Instagram
First of all HAPPY NEW YEAR! Hope you all had great nights and are looking forward to 2012!
I had a pretty interesting December and got even more addicted to Instagram! Here are just some of the photos taken in December!
1. I got my first ever business cards!
2. I went to the clothes show live with one of my closest friends Beth (who also designs her own clothing range Uffinton which you can catch me modelling on the site!)
3. I tried out some more nail art, in the style of suits!
4. Here in the North West we saw some snow in December! It was beautiful and lasted only a few days.
5. I rediscovered my winter leggings (yay!) I think they're super cool still... haha I do get a few funny looks wearing them out and about but I love them and they are so warm too!
6. I went for a trip to the trafford centre with my friend Sam christmas shopping, when we had a break we headed straight to costa. Mmmm frosted mint hot chocolates...
7. In Pizza Express having raspberry lemonade on a shopping trip again to the trafford centre for more christmas shopping (some things just can't be done in one day!)
8. Before wrapping these up for parts of gifts for people for christmas I couldn't help but making a chocolate orange tower! Just think how good this would look on a larger scale!
9. I received a couple of fashion books for christmas. I love this Teen vogue guide and who hasn't got Gok Wans autobiography?!
How was your December? Did you end up going shopping an awful lot too?
UPDATE! I have written a blog post on my other blog FASHION-TRAIN-FIX about Fashion Blogging Tips. It's been requested by a lot of you lately and so I hope you check it out HERE!

Blocks of Three - Best of 2011
When I do outfit posts I normally post a photo which is made of 3 individual ones. I noticed I've got a lot from posts in the past in folders on my desktop and thought they'd look great as a post. I didn't realise how much had changed over the past year!

I thought I wouldn't add a December photo as It's still December now! I really love the outfits in some of these photos and It's interesting to see how my style has changed.
Has your style changed this year? Which outfit is your favourite?
Hope you are all enjoying your christmas holidays! x

Style Crush: Ashley Madekwe
A few days ago I discovered Ashley Madekwe. I came across her in one of my recent magazines and loved her style, I googled her name and found so many photos of her wearing the most beautiful clothes!
Then I found her blog called Ringmybell. She's an actress who's been on a few British tv shows and is breaking it in America and she has a passion for fashion and writes a fashion blog! I love how in her posts she's wearing a lot of Topshop and a lot of pairs of shorts (an addiction of mine) Ashley has the hair length I'd love mine to be and she's mixed raced too. I've found my style icon.
I love how she wears a lot of stripey clothes too, and I own the shorts she has from Topshop in the last photo on the right! I love how her style is quite casual and elegant at the same time.
*photos are from google, other internet source and from Ashley's blog ringmybell*
I love how her outfits are quite simple but look so good! What do you think of Ashley Madekwe?
Also, hope you've all had a fabulous christmas! Hope you have all got some really lovely gifts and that you've had a great day!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
I don't know If I'll have the chance to post on my blog tomorrow so I thought I'd post about what I'm going to wear this christmas today! (yay!)
I love these tights and they've featured a lot of my posts recently as I think they are perfect for christmas! I'm sure all of your have a skater dress by now. I have a couple skater dresses and I've seen them in so many of them in the shops these past few months so I am sure a lot of you have one in a couple of colours. I love burgundy still right now. It's such a fab colour and goes with pretty much everything (yay!) and at only £20 It was such a bargain as you can dress it up for nightwear and down for daywear.
Skater Dress - AX Paris
Henry Holland Tights - Tights Please
Black Wedges - So You Shoes
I'm feeling christmassy now. Wrapping presents, eating christmassy chocolate and watching christmas films!
I'm sure tomorrow will be a great day :)
HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! Hope you all get what you want and have a great day!
