Mini- Shopping Spree!

Hey everyone! I went for a quick shop with my Mum today in my local shopping centre, which has lots of shops including Topshop, H&M, River Island, New Look, Miss Selfridge and many more.
I just called into Topshop and River Island to buy a few things, oh and I also dropped into SemiChem.
Below is some pictures of the items I bought :)

Everything in today's shopping bags


River Island- £24.99
I thought theses shoes were sooo cute! Really summery and perfect to wear with shorts or dresses. I also like how the dolly-shoes had an open toe, made them a bit different from others.

River Island-£12.99
I had wanted these for a while; Jelly-sandals!! Again great for the summer and super cute with the material bow. 

Topshop-£30
I wanted to get a casual denim shirt to wear instead of wearing blazers/coats all the time. My blazers/coats are too warm for the summer weather (not that we have been getting a lot of sunshine)

Topshop-£25
I love this top. It has a beautiful criss-cross detail at the front of the top and looks great. You could wear it with jeans for a casual look or dress it up with high waisted shorts and a pair of heels for a night out.

Topshop-£38
I also bought this navy and cream jumper, it is not a thick wooly jumper so you won't be really warm when you wear it. I just wanted something that I can throw on with jeans and dolly shoes for an effortless look.

SemiChem
Tantastic mitt-£3.49
St.Moriz Tan Mousse-£2.99
And finally I bought St. Moriz false-tan and a tanning-glove. I have heard so much about this tan so I decided to buy it and try it out, so expect a post about my reviews on this tan :) I couldn't believe how cheap it was!!

Please leave comments; I'd like to read what you all think!

Partytime

Hey everyone :)
A couple of days ago I went to a friends birthday. After hours of deciding what I was going to wear, I decided on my floral Topshop dress.
I bought this dress a few months back but had never worn it. It is very reveling at the back and the sides. I didn't like that you could see my bra and it looked stupid with another top underneath. I bought a bright orange bandeau top to wear underneath instead and looked much better!

Dress- Topshop
Shoes- New Look Sale (ages ago)


Revealing back and not a flattering picture
Earrings- Topshop
Bandeau top- Topshop



I think this dress is perfect for the summer. I kept accessories to a minimum as the dress does all the talking and wore a pair of pale pink/neutral shoes. The fabric is light and floaty, perfect for hot summer weather and even could be worn over a bikini on the beach with a pair of sandals. 
Hope everyone likes it. Think I think I might start doing "Outfit of the day" posts :)
Please leave a comment telling me what you think!

3-Day-Straight

For fellow curly-bops out there, I have found the miracle product that can fight the frizz.
Recently I bought John Frieda; Frizz-Ease 3 Day Straight Semi- Permanent Styling Spray.
Girls, this works!
I have naturally curly hair, it would be something alike Annalynne McCord's.
When I try to straighten my hair it tends to be frizzy and curls really easily. My aunt has the same curly hair as me and told me to try out this product and I am soooo happy I did!! :D



I bought the product in my local Superdrug store but you can also find it in any Boots stores.
It cost me £5-6 for 100ml. Which I think is fair for a new product..
Also this styling spray is safe for anyone who has coloured/dyed their hair as mine was fine and I have bleached hair.

Unfortunately I don't have and pictures of my hair to show how my hair stayed straight but I will get some sorted for everyone.
Seriously for those with curly hair, buy this and try it out!

Hey everyone! :)
So last night, my friend and me watched the Hangover 2. It was absolutely fantastic!
If you liked the first Hangover movie then you are certainly going to like this one. I recommend anyone who likes a really good comedy to go and see this movie, you will LOL.
If you haven't seen the first movie, then watch it first because it would be kind of hard to follow what's going on.
The three main actors are Bradley Cooper (YUM), Zach Galifianakis and Ed Helms.
And there is a special appearance from Mike Tyson!

Here's the link for the trailer:

Giles Nails

Today was a lazy sunday.
All i did was watch T.V, get a shower, watch some more T.V, browse through some of my favourite online shops and decided to try out a really cool nail-design!
My inspiration came from the fabulous Giles.

Original nail-design

My first attempt


This design was really easy to do and it looks super duper cute!
Here is 5 easy  steps to get this desired nail-design:

  1. Paint each nail a different colour, depending on what colours you would like to use (I will post a picture below of nail polishes I used)
  2. If needed paint another coat of the colour to make it POP!
  3. Using a bobby-pin or dotting tool, dot two white dots on each nail (try to make them an oval shape)
  4. Using your bobby-pin/dotting tool dot two black dots near the bottom of the white dot to create two eyes
  5. Finally paint a clear coat to protect the nails from chipping.
I highly recommend this design, it is so creative and I hope everyone has a go! And if if it doesn't turn out quite right, remember practice makes perfect!

From left to right:
Revlon 030 Gray Suede
BarryM 305 Pink Flamingo
Nails Inc Spitalfields
O.P.I  Just Groovy
Revlon 028 Minted
BarryM 47 Black
Unknown but any white nail polish will do

Beauty-School Dropout

Hello bloggers!
Just another update complaining about the mess of my page.
Apologises if anyone is finding it hard to read any writing.
(I am in the process of looking for a new design background)

Why did I choose Beauty-School Dropout as my blog name?
You may recognise it from the famous Grease movie (go grease lightin')
Therefore I thought it was a memorable name and it was suited to the type of blogging I hope to write!! (I'll try to make that asap)

Thanks for reading bloggers!
& don't forget to friend/follow me!
