Kim Kardashian, Topshop & Lemsips ♥


Hey girls! Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I'm back up at uni now and have no Internet..unless you count my blackberry. I'm hopefully getting it sorted out by the end of this week so I can be back to posting like normal
I'm incredibly silly because I left my camera memory card at home with all my images, so I don't have any outfit posts for you today. I'm currently sitting in uni typing away..I'm sitting next to an American - wooo! (I'm such a USA groupie I know.) 
Anyway, I saw this picture of Kim on the latest cover of Harper's and WOW. How amazing does she look?! The dress is quite unusual but it looks stunning on her as per normal.

 

I'm currently ill so I've been living of Lemsips for the past few days. It's no fun! I need to take pictures of my room to show you how I've decorated it. It's very umm...Disney Princess inspired. I hope you like this outfit I put together, it's perfect if you have a tan..or for the general public in England, once you fake tan it will look nice haha. Although, the sun this week has been pretty nice right?! 
I think the bracelets add a nice affect to it and don't even get me started on The Heels. They are amazing! It's a nice change to wear heels other than black. I think I'm stuck in a black heels rut. Anyway, tell me what you think! I will reply back to all your comments, it's just because I have no Internet at the moment. I promise I'm not being mean! :)

Hope your having a good week so far!

I Fancy Mila Kunis ♥

Hi girls, hope your weeks been going goodI'm packing up all my stuff for uni this week (I leave on Thursday), so I'm kinda running around like a crazy person right now. Anyway, I just wanted to share how much I adore this woman. I think she is such a great actress and I really her mannerisms! Mila is absolutely gorgeous and I'm jealous of how amazing her eyes are..Mine are just too small :( I've put together a little 'essential kit' for the things you need for a Mila inspired look. Matte browns and nudes are the basic colour palette essentials here, so this would be perfect for an evening look. ♥ I personally all the products that I've mentioned above and I love ♥, love ♥, love ♥ Natural Collection's matte brown eyeshadows

I also mentioned the Eylure lashes in that particular number (101), because Mila's eyes have a very 'fluttery' affect, so it's not too full on.

Finally, Barry M lip paint in Marshmellow is amazing when you have heavy eye make up. It's quick, easy and hassle free. I recommend adding a dab of peach coloured lipstick/gloss to add a bit of colour like Mila's. I this look! I hope you like the products I mentioned. Plus the pictures of Mila ;) Back to packing -__- Such fun.

What did you think of Friend's with Benefits?!

The Winter Tumblr Girl ♥


Hello girls, hope you've had a good weekend so far! I've had a nice lazy day today, my best friend came back from holiday so I had a much needed phone gossip with her. She only went for 10 days but that is 10 days worth of chatting gone! ;)

Anyway, I was stalking the gorgeous Tumblr girls again and this time I'm looking at the Winter outfits that they wear. I feel like such a stalker. But hey! I am an upcoming fashion journalist who loves seeing amazing outfits, so that's my excuse for Tumblr stalking today..

The outfit above is just an essential 'Winter Tumblr Girl' look. Leather pants seem to very popular this season and I'm going shopping for the H&M ones on Tuesday. I hope they look good!

So basically, to get 'the look' you have to focus on cropped baggy jumpers that are a block colour or neutral. I've seen a mixture of the two on Tumblrs'. Big chunky heels matched with bangles to spice it up a bit.

The one thing I've noticed make up wise is that there is no blush or bronzer being used this season. Just pure, flawless, matte skin and I think the Bobbi Brown one would be perfect!
Also, a Tumblr girl must is to have long, long, long hair. So I think the hair growth shampoo is a good start.
Here are some pictures I found today.


fyi these images do not belong to me!
ahhh gorgeous!

Autumn Outfit #1 ♥



River Island (Old) £49.99


Hello girls, I hope everyone is having a good start to the weekend. I am currently sitting at a table doing uni research while doing this post..on a Friday night. Alone.
Talk about lonely soup for one ay? haha :)

Anyway, for me personally I find it so hard to find things to wear for the winter. Summer for me is pretty much denim hot pants, vest tops and a pair of Ray Bans.

But winter..Eurgh don't get me started. If I don't wear enough I look like Rudolph but if I wear too much I look like an Eskimo..you see my predicament here?

So I've come up with a formula for myself...

Black heeled boots + Tight leather type jeans + Fitted coat (Possibly military style)
One Rudolph free nose for Jade.

I'm going to try and post a variety of Autumn outfits because I know it will help some of you (& certainly me) when it comes to remembering what looks good and practical for when it gets colder.

Man I miss summer already..

Britney, River Island Bags & More Britney ♥


Hello lovers ;) I hope you're having a good week so far. This post is just a brief look at my two favourite items at the moment. My H&M jacket & the bag.

I've been spending this morning, just eating (as usual) and reading through my Glamour magazine.

I , , that Britney's on the cover!

Anyway, the River Island bag is perfect for fitting your make up bag, diary and other little treasures in and looks perfect with heeled boots and jeans.
The jacket really reminds me of Britney's outfit in her
'I Love Rock 'N' Roll' video.



I'm just browsing through my wardrobe now to put some Autumn outfits together.

I want to do some looks that are perfect for everyday that won't break the bank and don't make you feel like your wearing your duvet - although wouldn't that be amazing!

I hope Anna Wintour never sees that comment..

Anyway, thanks for visiting!

Lettuce, Tomatoes & A Whole Lot Of Chicken ♥












Hi girls! I thought I'd do a fun, silly post today about my passion in life, other than fashion..Food! :)
My best friend Emma and I, find nothing better than making this salad and watching TV in our pyjamas. The best thing is, it's healthy and fills you up!

You will need:
(You can vary the veg to what you like)
Chicken goujons
Lettuce
Tomatoes
Cucumber
Peppers
Coriander
Salt
Pepper
Extra virgin olive oil
Lime/lemon juice
Mayanoise or salad dressing
Vinegar
Cheese

As you can see, it's nice & easy to make and takes about 15-20 minutes. You can cut up all the vegetables while the chicken is cooking then voila! All finished :)
I have to add all the sauces and mayanoise etc. to it otherwise I find it too plain.

Don't worry if this post didn't quench your fashion thirst today - I'm doing a "What's in my wardbrobe post" as we speak!

Heres another one of my favourite foods:
Let me know what healthy foods you always eat! :)

& I would just like to add that this is my 100th post!
I can't believe my blog is only 7 months old and I've got the amount of followers I have.

Thank you to everyone who follows me! :)

Fashion News ♥

Hello girls, hope you are all well! This post is slightly different because I'm just focusing on some of the latest fashion news that I came across today.

First of all, it's officially been declared that there will be a Sex and The City prequel TV series - and here's the good news..It's going to be made by Gossip Girl producers!


The gorgeous Kim was spotted wearing a fitted nude dress that showed of her fantastic curves. What I really about this outfit is the chunky necklace and how her sleek updo compliments the outfit perfectly! It's smart and sophisticated without being dull.

I then looked at a few collections from New York Fashion Week. These three designs caught my attention and if this is what we can expect next Spring, I will be one happy girl!
For Spring, the colours are very bold and bright but as you can see from Victoria's collection, she's added some leather into the mix for a raunchy edge.

When I was looking through the collections, I noticed that large bags were the main accessory - I can't wait to see what the high street will be inspired by after seeing these designs!

3 days until London Fashion Week!  

Who's lucky enough to be going?!

Prodigy Red Dresses - Top Picks ♥


a. b. c. d.

Hello girls, I hope you've had a lovely weekend! :) I spent mine with one of my girlfriend's before she went back to uni. Before I left hers, she gave me this specific instruction:

"I'm slightly worried about leaving you Jade..Don't do anything stupid while I'm gone..."

I am shocked! She makes it sound like I'm going to buy magic beans or something...haha :)

Anyway, I was doing my daily snoop on websites and I went on my favourite Prodigy Red. I wanted to show you these dresses that I have fallen in love with

Aren't they gorgeous?! They really remind me of the dresses Cheryl wore while she was on X Factor.


My favourite is b. and it's only £15.99. Wow.
Tell me what you think!

I would just like to say that my thoughts go out to everyone who was affected by 9/11 on this day, ten years ago. 

Proof that hereos do exist

Back To Uni Outfits ♥


Hello girls, I hope you are all doing okay and having a fabulous start to the weekend!
I'm officially going back to Southampton for uni on the 18th now and I cannot wait. I haven't packed anything up at home just yet but I'm not looking forward to sorting everything out...Sigh.

Anyway, I wanted to do a nice 'Back to Uni' post just for anyone who's also going back and to those of you who are just starting! I can't believe it's my last year :(

This outfit is nice and simple but it's perfect for this weather at the moment. That's the one thing I hate about September/October..and just winter in general, I find it a nightmare to still feel stylish while wearing a giant coat and woolly scarf -_-
Does anyone else have this problem?!


This is just a little selection from Paperchase that I thought would be essential for going back to Uni.
 Panda highlighter's are definitely practical and cute ;)

Tell me if anyones starting up uni this month!

En·crust·ed PhoneCovers ♥

Hi girls! This is just a post for the inner glam barbie girls out there haha :)
I'm getting slighlty bored with my phone case for my blackberry lately, so I decided to snoop around for some similar glam and girly ones!

I love nothing better than tacky, over the top Hollywood glamour phone cases.
Now I know some of you may disagree with me about this, but come on!
They're so pretty! 0=]

I did a post a few months ago about getting the 'Hollywood Look' and having a glam phone case is like adding the cherry on the top!

You have to admit that the Hollywood look is the dark shades, heels and the phone.

 
It's all about the phone darlings ;)

I do not own any of these images, they belong to Encrusted phone covers.

The best part is, you can custom the phone case to your liking and they cover a range of different phone brands.
I really like that these cases are handmade, because it just makes you feel more unique because it's custom made.

So why don't you have a look at the website and tell me if you see any you like!

Happy hunting!
xoxo

Style Crush Files: #3 Frankie Sandford ♥





I was just thinking how much I admire Frankie Sandford's style, of course I still haven't forgotten the beautiful Mollie King ;)

Frankie's style is sexy and daring but without being on the Jodie Marsh fashion admirers list..

The top dress is my absolute favourite look from Frankie's wardrobe because it's cheeky and risky but she manages to pull it off so well!

The one think that we all know about Frankie is how amazingly toned her stomach is. She must have corn flakes and 400 sits up for her breakfast everyday..I'm very jealous how toned she is.
Not only is Frankie known for her abs, she also sparked a hair style frenzy with her pixie style hair. It suits her face shape beautifully and I wish I could pull this look off!

Anyway, this is just a quick selection of my favourite Frankie outfits. I also want to talk about this phone case company that I found on Facebook called
I might do a separate post about it though because there are some amazing cases that I want to show you.

Isn't she gorgeous?!

I hope you are all having a good week and
I think we can all agree how much this weather sucks!

If I Could Wear Anything..♥

Hi girls! I'm just about to get ready for a girls night out - even though its only 5 o'clock haha :) I have a strict routine okay?!

Anyway, I'm wearing that pink topshop dress I bought a few months ago. I really like it, but I really want to wear these River Island shorts!

The saddest thing is, I have vouchers for River Island but they're out of stock in the store :(
I'm determined to get these bad boys though.

I just pieced this outfit together if I had unlimited amounts of money 0=] One can dream right?
I really think the Barry M nail polish would really break up the soft and neutral tones of the clothing. It gives it a added rock chick feel.

Of corse I had to include Mr. McQueen :) Gorgeous clutch!
The best part about getting ready now is, I don't have to tan for once! Ahhhh heaven haha :)

Have a good weekend girls!
xoxo
