Bye bye clothes | Ebay sales

So I've had a somewhat of a big clear out of my wardrobe and have accumulated quite a lot of things that I no longer want. Majority of the clothes are 'what was I thinking' pieces and others are things which are not my style anymore.

I have seriously understood the concept of growing up and out of things. In my theoretical proposition its not an annual thing but rather a thing that can happen in a days. I will seriously fall in love with something and even in a few hours time I will question my choice of clothing which I have just bought.

Maybe I am the only creature out there that is so indecisive and crazily mind changing, or is there lot of us?

Anyways to solve my problem of having a whole load of clothes I don't want anymore, with some pieces which I find utmost ugly which were lying around my house and some of my mums shoes. I have decided to sell them on ebay.

If you want to have a little sneak, then please have a look. You never know you might like the many knit jumpers I have on there.

Here is the link, I hope it's the correct link because I am a complete amateur at ebay. Or else find me  under the name of ikha6655. 

Happy shopping everyone.

P.S. There is still a lot to go on there, so keep your eyes peeled. 

My NET-A-PORTER final sale picks | Wants

1. Markus Lupfer skirt. 2. Tibi pants. 3. Victoria Beckham jacket. 4. Alexander Wang chiffon dress.
5. Mary Katrantzou silk dress. 6. J. Crew capri pants.

The sales seem to be coming to an end and I found myself on the NET-A-PORTER site. Of course for a drool. I was left scrolling furiously down the sale section looks at the wondrously beautiful clothes which are quite heavily discounted, yet still so out of reach. I even found my beloved YSL Arty ring for £36.00. 80% off! I had a mini heart attack and then a little moan after because it is bloody sold out. I better get my hawk eyes in place for the next sale.

Anyways, I ended up opening tabs of some clothes which are quite discounted and at a reasonable price compared to their original. Except for no. 3 & 5 which will leave be abandoned on the streets if I ever bought them. But that dress (N0.5) is to die for, especially when you see the model wearing it on the site.

What are your favourite from my picks? I better save and have something to splurge a little for the next NET-A-PORTER sale. Have a see for yourself here.

Flormar make-up | Newbies & Review

Whilst in Madrid I lost my virginity to a lot of brands and stores which some I had no idea existed in this world and others which I only heard about. That one being Sephora of course. I was excited to walk into Sephora and see the aisles of beauty upon beauty products, but to be honest I was not really interested in the expanse of beauty which was quite expensive for my liking and not really in my keen interest.

                               

However, I fell upon a small beauty brand called flormar which has its own independent store. The store resembles just as any mac store would resemble, but just a little smaller. The store had an array of all beauty products with both beauty tools. Everything looked of high quality but I just didn't have the Patience to rummage around every product. Lipsticks and eye-shadow are just my love.

I came back with an eye-shadow quartet for my mother, though of course I shall steal some of the pigments and an extremely vibrant orange lippie. 

The eye-shadow is neutrally based, which has a satin-y sparkly pay-off. There's a vanilla white shadow alongside two pink based shadows and a somewhat chocolate brown. The shadows are highly pigmented and very soft. The well milled shadow allows smooth application on the lids and not at all a streaky/ chalky pay-off.

And of course the lovely lipstick. This baby is a bright orange with pink undertones. The application is highly pigmented and very smooth. However, after a while of wear I found accumulation of product on the corners of my mouth which was rather weird. Whilst walking around Madrid, many people were left staring at my lips, I hope they were intrigued by the awesomeness of my highly pigmented lips and not the mere sight of my face.

From what I have used I think the brand is great, from the swatches of the other eye shadows I found them very pigmented and in comparison to some of the Nars ones I tried I think they were a lot better. A lot cheaper than the prices executed from Nars.

Inspiration | Current favourites

As they say a picture speaks a thousand words and seeing pictures of people, Icons, clothes, accessories, you name it is perfect way to spark something positive and influence oneself in an enlightening way.

Pinterest has become one of my overly obsessive platforms for both procrastination as well as severe need to look at clothes and mentally cry a river after scrolling through the array of beautifully coiffed women with naught hint of a blemish or flaw. (Impossible I know but that's what my eyes see and so I believe).

Regardless of my weird thoughts of beautiful women and its severe attack on my self-esteem. Haha! It just makes me more creative about clothes and so forth. So, here are my fave looks, style inspiration and other little bits and bops.

                                                              

 1. Having stringent curls which make a big ball of bush i have resorted to messily straightening my hair. I love the whole beach wave lose curls. The whole 'Olsen' hair mess is amazing, just going to take a lot of practice and more practice to make it as good; not forgetting products of course.

2. Absolutely love tulle/net material. Its become a major thing in the high-street especially in dresses. Its so princess-sy and glamorous.

3.Clothes. Clothes. Clothes. Pinterest leaves me browsing the fashion pins till the early morning of the day. The outfits are AH-mazing. The pictures in itself represent the love of the outfits but all in all for the moment layering pieces, Bouclé, the Boho look, lightweight pieces, pop of 'slight' neon and unique pattern and pieces of clothing are my favorite. Now can I own all those pieces please?

4. I love make-up, yet I don't spend a lot on make-up. I'm simple and quick with it. Again the whole 'Olsen' look is what I always want but it never turns out that way. However, smoky overall eye looks, with light blush, or defined eyes is what I go for. Also, if one had not spotted already, ORANGE has got to be the best lip colour in the world (In my opinion).

5. Like I said in my previous post, sunglasses were not really my thing and I am not obsessed. I absolutely love over-sized and slightly circular shaped glasses. And having some mirrored coloured glass lenses will be awesome.

6. Who can forget shoes! Cut out shoes. Simple yet not simple. The slight heel is perfect for one who cannot withstand the pain and awkwardness of looking too tall in heels. Found some here. Also, I live in ballet flats, simple, comfortable and in my eyes classy. The Chanel babies will make them the ever more classier. A pair for me please!? Lastly, gold metal elements in shoes are another fave of mine; especially being the solid part of the heel.

All these images have been scoured from my Pins on my Pinterest page. If you want to nose around and find the links of any of these babies check my Pinterest page here.

Happy pinning, and let me know your favourites from my chosen favourites.

Success | Thoughts

I don't know if I am the only one but only being 18 and just finished school, I just really want something more than just having A-levels which I'm not even sure I did well in. All through the last term of school I just wanted to do something amazing, be successful through business, through enterprise where not only it being economic success but having a sincere opportunity and the ability to prove to myself and others that anything is possible. Where one has to break the cycle of only the Rich being the Richest and getting richer, us normal people should have a chance too.

Obviously, there is some form of not being able to have stuff that you want which drives the momentum and urge to success like wanting a designer bag or some sort of luxury like frequent holidays. But why should that be wrong! We work for ourselves, our families and also to drive us to the best and reach the optimum of optimum success. 

I feel like I have always had an element of 'entrepreneurship' inside me as it has kind of runs in my  family, but I just cannot find my niche and stance in this situation. I am young but I really want to start now. Also, it's not the idea of a business but something that is productive which I love. Even finding a job which I can do suitable to my age and qualifications would be amazing. 

I do not know if I am the only one out there who feels like that. I think its a big puzzle which one needs to piece together. Grow oneself, gain skills, gain knowledge and find the thing you love to a product of success.

Personally, in a nutshell its the urge for something good/amazing to happen that will put me in a better place socially, personally, economically and all the other relevant -allys' out there. 

Let me know if you are in the same dilemma as moi.
