A New Addition to Stylist

I have been reading Stylist magazine since I moved to London in September. The weekly publication comes out every Thursday morning, and you can pick it up at your tube station. The editor in chief is Susan Riley, and my favourite writer (whom is only a contributing editor) is Lucy Mangam. She is a real inspiration for my writing as she is knowledgeable and hilarious!

This week Stylist magazine has launched their online sister 'magazine'- Emerald Street. This website can be tailored to your specific interests, including fashion, beauty, lifestyle, travel, television ect ect. You can set your location so Emerald Street can update you on events in your area. So as I live in London, Emerald Street sends me weekly email updates, and provides info on daily events in London and the surrounding area.

So sign up, and tailor the magazine to what you want to read!

OOTD: The Boat Race

Today is the annual Oxford V Cambridge Boat Race, and lucky for me it is actually held in London. So as Chiswick Park holds host to this most upheld of traditions, thousands of people flock from all over the country to oversea the race. Obviously I am supporting Oxford, and will be heading down to Chiswick Park to watch the race from the finish line! If you read this and you are heading down there then leave me a comment and we will meet up!
So this is is my outfit for the day. We chose to dress semi-formal as it is quite a prestigious event!
 Dress from Banana Republic, Shoes from Topshop, Bag from Calvin Klein, Cardigan from New Look, Scarf from Oxford Market, Bracelets from Topshop, Necklace (long) from Topshop
 No7 Perfect Light Pressed Powder (10, Fair), MAC Studio Sculpt Concealer (NC20), MAC Paint Pot (Bare Study), All About Face Eyeshadow (Buttermilk), Rimmel Exaggerate Eyeliner (100% Black), No7 Exquisite Curl Mascara (01, Black), MAC Sheertone Blush (Tendering), MAC  Lustre Lipstick (Angel)
Ballerina hair. Create a tight bun at the nape of your neck, but allow a small amount of hair to be free at the front. Pin the thicker side of hair back, over the ear. On the other side create a tiny braid, and pin back. Hope you are all well. Are you going to the boat race today? See you there! Love,
