Makeup


Makeup is actually a trend I like!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Super-minimal makeup!!!!!!! This means no more silly clown faces with everything drawn on because you are going to try and just look like you, but on a reeeeeeaaaally good day!!!!!!!!!!! It looks really really nice!!!
So I would recommend that you try to go for a foundation and concealer which is as close as possible to your actual skin tone! I'm a MAC girl myself but I have been told that Bobbi Brown and Clinique are very good(I do actually have a Clinique lipstick and I love it!!) If you aren't looking to spend that much though I would say that most of the mainstream makeup is good but I wouldn't go for any makeup for somewhere that isn't a makeup brand though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Socks

Topshop socks are 3 for £8!! Here's the three I'd go for!!!!!!! I love the character ones because they are just so adorable!!! The always make me smile without fail!! And even the "normal" socks are always loooovely and never fail to cheer me up!!







I actually have a sock story that I'm going to inflict on you because I personally love clothes stories and owning clothes with stories attached to them!! So, I went out to buy some socks for a costume I  was putting together to go to see this premiere thingy for Les Mis.... I went into BHS and bought some massively thick black and white woven socks that weren't hugely expensive!! I called them my poverty socks and after that night I realised I had actually fallen in love with these socks!! So now I wear them ALL the time and my poverty socks are a key piece of my wardrobe!!!!!!!

Hair


For hair have a look on bumbleandbumble.co.uk !!! It's got loads of specialized hair products on there and although I'm not one for straightening, curling and spraying!! I reckon doing too much to your hair does more harm than good!! If I was going to put something on my hair I would get myself some Bumble and Bumble Sea Spray!! Warning though: dead expensive!! Have a look anyway!!Surf Spray is £20.50!! Whatever you want out of your hair definitely check Bumble and Bumble!

Staying floaty how about this skirt from Jack Wills?? It's also been reduced to £39!!!

HATS

Milly Unisex Heavily Embellished Snapback CapI've had a request for hats.... I'm not doing woolly hats though because I'm trying to be seasonal and even though it's not warm, ENJOY!!
Black Felt Floppy HatThis is a big blingy cap from boohoo. com!! If you want to be noticed go for hats like this!!! £16
If your look is a bit more classic or you want something more beachy then have a look at hats like the fedora from Topshop for £22!!
For a super classic look try Miss Selfridge!! This black  felt hat is SO smart!! But sadly not cheap at £28!! 
If you're aiming for a more military style look, a little bit Cheryl Cole then go out and get yourself a peak hat like this one for £16 at Accessorize!!
To simply be the effortless cool kid in the cool cap then snap up this cap from Hollister for £16!! Is £16 the price for hats at the moment?!
