Hipstamatic fun

Hipstamatic! Yes I have discovered it, and it is fun. Jon has an iphone and got this app and has been playing with it lots. So here are some random shots from an old outfit shoot we did.

Dorothy Perkins Dress
NewLook Shoes
This is actual a new outfit. Jon snapped these while we were out taking photos of waterfalls in Gnoll Park.
This jumper was my treat to myself last month. It was only £5 (Originally £25) in the Zara sale. I'm not usually a jumper girl and rarely wear prints like this, but I just fell for this awesome Polar Bear print.
Zara Jumper
Apple Bottom Jeans
Converse Shoes
These 2 aren't hipstamatics obviously.

30 for 30 - Day 18

Ahh day 18! Im getting there, slowly! This is the final remix of the H&M dress mini-remix. This time I took a tip from Michelle that she mentioned on a previous outfit post. She said I could wear the skirt belted and high on my waist, so I did! What do you think? This is obviously the most drastic change for the dress as it just looks like a top in this remix.
Outfit made up of 16+18+28
16. H&M
18. Next
28. Mustang

Primark Tights
Vintage Bag
Aimi Boutique Pocket Watch Necklace

Photos were taken in an unused back stair case at the pub. Using Jons new flash! He is very happy with it so far, and has had lots of fun snapping away to practice.

Onto other things:
You may have noticed the poppy project flowers going on up there in the corner of my blog. Well Coach is giving away $2500 worth of coach items to whoevers poppy's bloom the most.

30 for 30 - Day 17

On to day 17 (I'm getting there slowly!) and its remix number 3 for the H&M dress. This is a slightly more feminine look I think. I wanted to add some colour to the dress as it is very simple and I think this worked best.
Outfit made up of 12+16+28

Primark Tights
Internacionale Owl Necklace
Internacionale Bow Ring
Jon had a good play with his new flash here as the sky had clouded up so it was kinda dark and these shutters were great for bouncing light.
My wonder women pose!
Some bright back lighting!!
Excuse the slightly messy hair the wind was really bad while we were doing these shots.
I really like the bright cardigan paired with the simpler blue dress and think this is probably my fav combo with this dress.

I always think of myself as a fairly colourful person but I am quite surprised at how few bright colours I choose for my 30 for 30 items, and it wasn't intentional! This cardigan is possibly the brightest piece I have in my selection.

On another note. Thanks lots to everyone who commented on my first vlog yesterday, I'm not feeling so conscious about my accent now you have all said you like it. lol. If you missed my vlog and wanna see what I'm on about click !
Don't forget to enter my giveaway here only 3 days left!!

That's all for now folks.

30 for 30 - Day 16

Another day another outfit!
Day 16 is the 2nd remix on the H&M dress.
Outfit made up of 10+16+27
10. H&M
16. H&M
27. Peacocks
+
Primark tights
Internacionale Bangles and ring
Vintage Pearls



So onto other things:
I got given the Versatile Blogger award this week by Lucky Dame
This means I have to give you 7 facts about me and pass it onto 10 bloggers. I decided to do this a little differently to how I usually would and did it as a vlog post. Now Im not usually a fan of being in front of the camera so this is a first, and depending on how it is received it may well be a last. So here is you first glimpse of the real me. I am Welsh so I apologise for my accent although I don't think it really comes through much on the video.


So the bloggers were:
1. Tia
2. Miki
6. Liz
9. Ali

Plus I forgot to say that this is my hair after being dyed. Its not a huge difference but it is a bit darker than what it was before!
So I hope you liked my first Vlog, if you would like me to do some more, or have something in specific you would like me to vlog on, just say in the comments and I shall try my best!

Bye for another day!

30 for 30 challenge - Day 15

Hello ladies, as you can see there has been another reshuffle with my blog. Jon thought the colours were too dark and too harsh, so we have gone white. Is this better? No doubt I will change it again at some point (I get bored easily!).
So today I have another 30 for 30 outfit. I decided to to a mini remix challenge within this big remix challenge, so the next 4 days will be a remix of 1 dress. 1 Dress 4 Outfits. The dress in question is my H&M Chambray dress.
Here is the first look:
Outfit made up of 16+26
16. H&M Dress
26. George
+
Primark Tights
Random Wooden bangles
Algonquin Park Rain Cloud Necklace
Internacionale Black Bow Ring
These photos were taken in Cardiff in a small paved area behind the station, which has been turned into a mini park I suppose. Benches, fountains, tress and lights, but it's actually a kinda roundabout so I don't really know what to call it.


So there you have it Outfit 15 of my 30 for 30 challenge (half way at last!) and Outfit 1 for my mini remix on this dress.

On a last note, I would just like to say how great Emma Watson looks with her new pixie crop!
Her long hair was stunning on her but this really opens up her face and I think may lead to some new modelling contracts now that Burberry has dropped her. She looks so striking now!
What do you think? Are you a fan of the pixie crop?
I just dyed my hair a darker brown! So will show you all it in a few days.

Off to work worse luck!
