The Fog and the Flowers| Lookbook

November has definitely arrived with thick fog, dark evenings and a very very chilly breeze! It's always a struggle to know what to wear in the winter months, as you're freezing when you leave the house but boiling whenever you're inside! So we thought we'd create a little lookbook inspired by the autumn/winter change.

For this look we went with another muted palette with a black blouse, black over-sized hoodie and floral statement leggings. These leggings are great because they're fun and different without being childish or looking like 'grandma's curtains'. As a little added bonus, they're super comfy to wear and are brilliant with a baggy jumper for a casual day look.

We loooove a good smokey eye and so of course what better for the foggy days and nights of November than this statement look? We used a lot of silver and greys with a bold flicked eyeliner that draws people's attention. The pink lip adds a bit of colour to the look but isn't too overwhelming.

Hair hair hair! To create this we curled the hair a bit, textured it with some hairspray and swept it into a low messy bun. We then teased out a few wisps of hair to frame the face and soften the appearance. This hairstyle is great because it's so versatile, it could look perfect with a pastel dress for a summer day out, but also really suits a casual grungy look.









Blouse: Next
Leggings: Primark
Shoes: Select

This is such an easy way to experiment with the grunge look and perfect for this chilly winter weather!

Questions of the day:

Do you usually go for a Smokey Eye or more of a Natural look?
AND.   Are flowery leggings your kinda thing too?

Vintage 1940s Inspired Lookbook

While raiding Ayah's wardrobe, we found this cute little denim tea-dress, and we were inspired to do a 1940's style lookbook.

To achieve this style, we curled the hair and pinned it slightly back. For makeup we went for a winged eyeliner, whilst keeping the rest quite classic with a pink lip.
The gloves were an impulsive addition, we wanted to add a little bit of class (and let's be honest, it's just fun to wear long gloves!). We decided on simple black flat shoes because we couldn't find a heel to suit the look!













Dress: Forever21
Gloves: An independent store

This photoshoot was so much fun to do! It involved a lot of trotting back and forth as we tried to get good 'natural' action shots, as well as ignoring the strange looks we got from people driving past!


As we said, it's only a Vintage Inspired look, so forgive us for a bit of poetic licence in our historical accuracy!


Questions of the day:
Do you like to channel a little vintage into your everyday look?
What's your favourite era of fashion?

Blue Waves Inspired Lookbook











We LOVE artsy creative photos! Soo we decided to create this beautiful blue waves inspired look!

The makeup is inspired by beach waves and the colour they reflect especially in the summer! We wanted to go for something a little different from our street style lookbooks and it's so refreshing to change things up a little and be a little crazy sometimes!! 

As you can possibly see, it was a bit of a windy day so perfect for a moody nature-inspired fashion shoot! Sometimes you really have to take advantage of your surroundings as fashion bloggers!

For the hairstyle, we went with a messy, chic look; which we felt emphasized the style we were going for, taking inspiration from the tumbling waves of the ocean with some twists and backcombing. If you toned down the backcombing a tad this hair style could be a reeeally nice look for a classy night out! 


Necklace: Forever 21
Shirt: Primark
Eye Liner: Model Co.

Beauty Question of the day: 
Blue Eyeliner & Mascara- YAY or NAY?!

Inspiration of the week '15



Over summer everyone can get a little bit sluggish- you're out of class, your friends are on holiday and you find yourself doing the same old things and getting a little bored. Well, we thought it would be a good idea to think about some of the people that inspire us to give you a little bit of inspiration for your week!

Ayah

Niga Higa is one of my favourite youtubers! I absolutely love the way he puts so much effort into all his videos. His creativity really shines through his work! He genuinely makes me laugh
Nowadays, many youtubers publish content because they have a certain schedule and have to follow that; but Ryan Higa posts when his videos are ready. This emphasizes how quality is more important than quantity. Also, his ideas are pretty genius and funny!

Check my favorite video of his, you can thank me later! (Hehe):



Kimmy

I am totally inspired by Tavi Gevinson. I started reading her magazine Rookie a couple of years ago and I always found it to be so thought provoking. She's brave, intelligent, caring, creative and beautiful and she is so going places! She inspires me in my personal life and as a blogger as well!





Question of the day:
Who inspires you most? * Could be a celebrity, politician, musician, blogger, family etc.*

Jump into Summer Lookbook




















We've done it! Everyone can go home, stop the search, cancel the fashion police. We have found an outfit that is perfect for summer! This jumpsuit is such a versatile piece of clothing. The material is light enough to be cool on a hot day but keep the breeze off if it gets a bit cool!

With this look, we decided to create a powerful lady like summer vibe...

We added a biker jacket to give it a bit more of a punch but softened the look with this gorgeous curly side pony-tail  braid which we feel adds a bit of class!

For the make up, we went with light pinkish colors but added the wing liner to match the biker jacket!

What do you think of the jumpsuit, what would you pair it with?
Biker jackets and jumpsuits: YAY or NAY?

This Summer I Will: Tag!



We've been nominated by the lovely Lydia over at Electric Suede for this tag all about our summer wishlist! We've decided to write down 5 wishes each that we have for this summer!

Ayah

  • Spend loads of time with my 2-year-old nephew and 4 months old niece! (The loves of my life)- I miss them so much when I'm at Uni and I love seeing them grow and start talking *aww*
  • Work my ass off on the blog with Kimmy so it would be FAB- We have so many great ideas for this blog and we can't wait to work on them and publiish them! *eeep*
  • Visit so many different places with my old school friends!- Now that I'm in Uni, i just feel like it's important to experience new places and things that I used to take for granted! 
  • Go to the beach loads- It's a good idea to take advantage of the hot weather. The beach is my favorite place to be, makes me feel so energized and great!
  • Learn how to stop overthinking- Overthinking is a huge problem with me, and the worst part is that I tend to worry and overthink many stupid things that I shouldn't be wasting my energy on. So..I gotta stop doing that! Hehe x

Kimmy

  • Keep jogging - At uni I managed to get into a habit of jogging every week and it felt so good to see my times improving and to be able to push myself that bit further each time! Over exams I had to stop going so much but now it's summer I definitely want to get back out there!
  • Catch up with friends - It is sooo hard to keep up with people when at uni, so I am really looking forward to meeting up with friends and hearing EVERYTHING!
  • Read more - I have a big pile of books that I haven't read yet (or haven't re-read in a while- looking at you Anne of Green Gables!) and I am just gonna sit in the garden and read away!
  • Work on the blooooog! I love ETL soo much and I am super excited to spend a lot more time on it! And just a sneaky little promise- we have AWESOME things lined up!!
  • Meet up with my boyfriend - Can anyone say long distance relationship? I'm looking forward to spending a bit of time over summer with the guy! 


So that's our summer wishlist! What are your plans for summer? We'd love to hear them!

We're tagging these lovelies to post their summer wishlists: The Flower That Blooms, Held Together By Pins, Becky Stewart and Scottish Stef's Nails!


Song of the week! Us The Duo: No Matter Where You Are! We think this is such a cute and upbeat song, perfect for summer! What do you think?
