Think you’re cool like a porcupine…

orange circle rottweiler t shirtORANGE CIRCLE DOG TEEorange circle dog t shirt
Rottweiler dog tee*: Orange Circle
Black disco pants*: Shelikes
Suede peep toe boots*: OASAP
How awesome is this dog tee?! The lovely people at Orange Circle kindly sent it to me last week, it arrived in the post the other day & I haven’t had it off my back since! I’m sure you have all seen the Givenchy rottweiler tees & sweaters etc doing the rounds in interweb land & I have been no exception to everyone else in the fact that I have stocked up on the print, buying myself a Givenchy esque iphone case (ebay seller here>link) a while ago after seeing Kate’s. Anyway… I love that Orange Circle have put their own spin on the rottweiler face & have done their own version of the infamous t shirt. As usual, the standard of the print is top notch & the t shirt it’s self is great quality! As you all probably know by now, I am a huge fan of OC’s work & would recommend them to anyone in a flash as both service & products are beyond fab!

The disco pants were sent by a company called Shelikes. I first came across them on ebay almost a year ago but they contacted me the other week & it turns out they have their own online shop now too! When they asked me if I wanted to pick an item to feature on effiesmakeupbox I couldn’t resist these disco beauties! I know, I know, loads of places stock replica AA discos but I wanted to try them for myself & boy am I glad I did! They haven’t shown up as shiny as they actually are in real life in the photos but believe me when I say they are super soft & super shiny, & at only £22, super good value too! Get yours here>link

Phew, that was a long one eigh? Just one more thing though, my blog hit 3000+ members last night & I wanted to say a huge thank you to you all for all the support you have given me over the past almost 3 years! :O I know everyone says this but I really never in a million years thought that so many of you would read my blog. I am so grateful to you all! I have had so many amazing opportunities through my blog, which wouldn’t have happened without you guys, & have met some wonderful people in real life & on the webz. Eewww, I’m beginning to sound soppy now so I’ll stop, I just wanted to say thank you! :’)

Nude spots…

SPOTTY NAILS 2SPOTTY NAILS 3
Rhinestones: here
You may have seen me moaning on twitter before that it took me over an hour & a half to remove my nail varnish so that I could paint them again. I have no idea why, but the clear nail varnish (it was just a non brand cheap one) I used as a top coat was stuck to my nails like superglue & I ended up having to soak each nail in a nail varnish remover drenched cotton pad, it was a painfully slow experience O.O

But hey I managed to get it off so I could paint these lovely dots on my nails, yay! ^_^ I know they are nothing special but I really like spotty nails at the moment, they are dead easy to do, take no time at all & look really smart when they are finished, it really is a nail design for everyone, so if you are just starting out experimenting with nail art, I’d give these a go! ^_^

Creep…

YAYO
Leather jacket: Topshop
Green black faux fur stole: ASOS
Wolf t-shirt: ebay
Shorts: Levis
Knee high socks: New Look
Shoes: Topshop


I wore this outfit the other day & I actually wasn’t planning on wearing the faux fur stole, but I’m glad I did, it annoys me how the green tint in the fur doesn’t show up on camera though :( Also, you can’t tell from the photos but it was actually snowing but thankfully it wasn’t that cold! ^_^

You are probably all getting sick & tired of me wearing my hair like this (I am too) but my hair just doesn’t seem to want to do anything else at the moment, & because it’s cold & I have been basically living next to the radiator in our flat, it’s SO DRY too, I need to buy some deep conditioner asap! >.<
