Get The Look: Lana Del Rey Vogue Cover

The whole world has gone a little bit Lana Del Rey mad as of recent.  Her album, Born To Die, was released last Monday and went straight to the top of the UK album charts. To celebrate my minor girl crush, I thought I'd do a get the look from her recent Vogue cover debut.

On the cover she wears Louis Vuitton S/S12, but for those of you with a less extravagant budget, here's a high street alternative to the look.

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5

The dress for this look is from Lipsy, costing £58, whilst the ring (which is the exact one Lana is sporting on the cover) is from Topshop, costing £8.50. It's hard to see on the cover photo, but she's wearing a bow belt in a creamy beige, this one from Topshop is a great alternative, £16.  I'm incredibly envious of Miss Del Rey's locks, to get that swept back look try this Oasis hair comb at £12 from ASOS.  To get the perfect winged liner that Lana sports here, try the MAC Penultimate Liner, £15 online and instore.  

What do you think of Lana Del Rey, love her or loathe her?

Now it wouldn't be right if I didn't leave you with my favourite song off the album, This Is What Makes Us Girls.  

Pixie Lott get Lipsy.

The blonde bombshell from Essex (shaaat appp!) brings us her second collection in partnership with Lipsy to spice up our Summer wardrobes.  Today see's the launch both in stores and online, and as I can't get to a store today I've been eyeing up the collection over at Lipsy.co.uk.  The Photoshoot is as gorgeous as the clothing!

As you can probably guess, I have a wishlist already which includes, wait you may need to sit down for this, TROUSERS.  Yes me, leggings obsessed, has been loving Palazzo pants and I think it's time (June payday of course) to turn to the darkside...

£45

The floral print is gorgeous and these trousers would be easy to wear from day to night.  For the day, tuck in a tangerine or magenta coloured tank top, layer it with a denim jacket and finish off with gladiators.  For the evening swap the flats for chunky cork heels, denim jacket for a blazer and add a clutch bag.  

£38

This embellished chiffon top would be great paired with some vintage Levi's at a festival or just for the beach.  I love the scallop trim, which gives the top some more character.  

£55

I adore this dress.  It is extremely girly, with a bit of an edge with the abundance of studs.  The back has detailing too, with a plunging V.  This would look great with a denim waistcoat and wedges.  Pixie teams it with a sunhat, long necklaces and a skinny brown belt.  

Those are a few of my favourites from the new collection, if you'd like to see more then head over to Lipsy.co.uk now!

Student loans arrived and it's burning a hole through my pocket...

It's that time again, when christmas comes early for students in the form of a gorgeous wad of cash in our bank accounts.  Now, I was due to give most of it to my parents, but I found that I'd pretty much paid off my Macbook Pro, leaving me with a nice little amount in my bank account, to spend until payday next Friday.  Already, I have run up the road and booked myself a cut and blow dry as my hair in in dyer need of a trim.  I'm getting it re-styled, although it wont be anything dramatic.  If you didn't see my hair ideas post then this is what I'm going for:

Let's call it 'The King'

It wont be a drastic change but I love the cut!  

ALSO, check out Mollie's hottie of a boyfriend:

I wont lie, i'm pretty jel.  Anyway, back on topic now girls...

I'm getting my hair feathered (sounds like something dangerous!) next Friday, so I wanted it cut before.  Of course I've been screen shopping (window shopping of the online world for those of you wondering).  I've found this dress on ASOS:

Lipsy; £48.00

How cute is that?! I'm thinking pair it with a denim jacket for a casual day look, and perhaps a biker jacket to switch it up for night.  I love the gorgeous lace detailing and of course, the peter pan collar!

On my travels across the net I also found the Urban Decay Naked Palette, IN STOCK, which I've been wanting for a very long time.  I have agreed with myself (with the aid of my Twitter peeps + loyal best friend), that I will purchase it tomorrow, if I pass my driving test as a treat.  I have to pass tomorrow, it's my fourth test now!  Plus, me and my parents found a really pretty car today which would be perfect.  Please keep your fingers and toes crossed for me, if I pass there will be a MAC giveaway - more on that tomorrow (hopefully).  

Also, I know I will buy this palette if I fail, i'm useless like that...

In other events, expect a short haul by the end of the week!  I have purchased a few beauty items and I am testing them out to give a little review on each.  I'm also going to be doing a Tips, Tricks and Cheats post on the Sleek Contour Kit.  

Now, back to staring at that gorgeous man on Mollie's arm.  It's a hard life being a Saturday...

Lipsy's A/W Collaboration with Pixie Lott

After a successful S/S collection, Pixie Lott is back making her second collaboration with popular high street brand Lipsy.  The collection features 30 pieces, mainly made up of day and party dresses with a few tops, coats/jackets and skirts.  The two main looks that her collection were inspired by are 'Party Pixie' and 'Pixie Rocks'

Pixie has picked out key trends this season including lace, leather and the growl factor, animal print with the 'Party Pixie' range.  She has both a leopard print dress and two faux fur jackets.  (See below)

For 'Pixie Rocks' you would expect to see leather and stud embellishments which the pop princess delivers in the shape of a studded leather jacked and a ribbon fringed skirt. (See below)

  

My personal favourite from the collection would have to be this lace top smock dress.

I would wear it with knee high sock and brogues for a cool day time look.
I also love the cropped faux fur jacket, I guess we can see where my pay cheques going this month!
