Autumn clothes

Howdy!

This is 'giraffe' and I am really sorry that I haven't posted In ages!!!!! But anyway today's post is all about things you could do to make your everyday autumn look even more autumny!

1. Wear long or baggy clothes, they are really comfy and are perfect for cuddling up on the sofa and watching X Factor in!!

2. Maybe a bit of orange? Or even purple?? I just feel like orange and purple are really nice colours for autumn! Maybe not together though...

3. I always think that a pair of  boots with a small chunky heel are really fun to wear in autumn.

4. Add a bit of sparkle by wearing some of your favourite jewellery!!!

This was a bit of a quick post today, but remember to follow us on Instagram and Twitter to find out when we do post!

Autumnal Makeup Look

Howdy everyone!

We hope you enjoyed our 'Personalising and Organising your room' series and we hope to do more series like that!

So today we are going to be talking about the essentials you need for an Autumnal Makeup Look!

Face: a nice matte foundation ( we recommend the mac studio fix foundation) and a nice light pink blusher for rosy cheeks.

Eyes: smoky eyes are all in for autumn but if you don't feel comfortable using a black we recommend natural smoky eyes ( MUA heaven and earth palette is great for this look and a great bargain!)
Big lashes and a nice cat flick will finish this look off!

Lips: finally lips are the key point of this look! Plum or wine coloured lips are beautiful in autumn! You can get really cheap lipsticks or high end ones(MUA/mac) don't put on lipgloss because Autumn = MATTE! Haha xx

Hope you enjoyed this post!

See you next time!
Love Caila xx

Personalizing and Organizing your room! Spring edition!

Howdy Everyone!

Sorry this post is a bit late (like the last one)! But on to the personalizing!!

1. Add floral scented candles to make it smell and feel like the blossoming of spring!

2. Going back to the last one, add a vase of bright flowers to make your look bright and smell nice if you're not allowed candles in your bedroom.

3. Add lots of pastel colours- maybe paint your wardrobe or have pastel photo frames!!

4. Make a line of springy pictures like farm animals, flowers or even pictures of you and your friends! Just take a piece of string and some pegs and attach the pictures to the string. Then simply attach it to your wall!
 
5. Sometimes it can get a bit chilly in spring in the U.K. so why not add a pastel coloured or floral throw/blanket to your bed so when you get cold just go to your bed and cuddle up in the throw!
 
Love Caila xx

Personalizing and Organizing your room! Winter Edition

Howdy everyone!

Sorry that this post is a bit late coming! The Spring edition will be up soon!

Right so on to the organizing!

1. In the UK, Christmas comes in Winter so if you are from the UK add Christmas decorations like tinsel and a Christmas tree.

2. Make a colour scheme of cold colours like white (which is like snow) or blue (ice).

3. Use a stencil in the shape of a snowflake and put it on your wall. Paint over it in white and then repeat on another part of the wall!

4.  Add little pops of metallics. Some gold and silver!

5. Finally, get a nice big frame and put lots of pictures and memories from that year!

Sorry again for the late post!

Love Caila xx

Personalizing and Organizing your Room! Autumn Edition

Howdy Everyone!

So today I will be talking to you about 5 ways to update your room ready for Autumn because I know that it is different temperatures in different countries!

1. Have a colour scheme! Sounds weird I know, but instead of it being random pops of colour like in summer go for a colour scheme maybe darker colours?

2. Add minimal decoration, to keep it clean and simple! Maybe just a big picture or something hanging on your wall?

3. Make your room cosy! Add cushions and blankets to warm up the appearance!

4. Make your own bunting just to make yoyr room look pretty and welcoming!

5. CANDLES CANDLES CANDLES!!!

Anyways so I hope you guys enjoyed the second blog post for this week see you in the winter edition!
Bye guys! :)

Love Caila xx

Personalizing and organising your Room! (Summer Edition)

Howdy Everyone!

So we have five steps for how you could personalise or "vamp" up your room. We thought that we would do 4 different posts like this but they would all be for different seasons! So as you can probably see this one is the summer edition, the next one will be for Autumn and we will upload this 'series' in this coming week.

Anyways so lets get this show on the road!

1. To prepare your room first have a big clear out! This might not sound fun but put on a bit of music and open the windows and dance around a little bit and you will be fine! Also when you have gotten rid of a bit of stuff sell it on EBay! Then you could spend that money on new decorations!

2. Next, add POPS of colour! Summer is all about being bright and cheerful! So add pictures (you could draw or paint or print them out and put them in a frame!) and organise your makeup and put them in personalised jars. We recommend watching Niomi Smart's video on personalising jars or watching CloeCoutures summer bedroom.

3. Add LIGHT! It will open up your room and add the illusion of it being bright and airy. Get some fairy lights they are soooo pretty and cute and you can get loads of different types in different shapes and colours!

4. Having mirrors in your room gives the illusion of space!

5. Do a bit of DIY! Is your desk looking sad? Paint it! Print off a stencil from online, place it on the wall and paint it! Its really easy but looks so cool and professional!

Anyway so the rest of the series is coming soon, keep your eyes peeled for them!

See you soon,
Love Caila xx
