Life

I have literally been waiting for this year's Fashion Night Out for ages - especially after the amazing time I had at the event last year and I'm really excited that the day has finally arrived. It might seem a bit strange that I'm so excited about FNO but it's the only large fashion event I can attend this year because I need to be in Scotland for some university stuff. I don't particularly believe in making New Year's resolutions and instead believe in regular decisions to improve 'oneself', so with that in mind I've decided to make a resolution that I will hopefully stick to for a long time:

TO TAKE MORE PICTURES!

This resolution is partly based on my mum's nagging comment of how I never take enough pictures of myself and friends, which I admit is completely true. The photos that I do have are never taken by me and almost always taken on nights out and by nightclub photographers. I get this irrationally sick feeling in my throat and have no idea why. So in my quest to cure this feeling, I intend to take at least ONE photo per day. And what better way to start than with an outfit post? I will be taking photos of my outfit, as well as the outfits that my friends have chosen, for FNO tomorrow. Apologies in advance for the (inevitable) amount of boozy photos.

Dip It Low

Dip-dye, ombre or two-toned: whichever you choose to call it, it's clear that this hair trend is showing no signs of fading. I am literally obsessed with this hairstyle right now and I've been wanting to try this out with my hair for ages. However, i've had my hair in long ass braids since April to grow out so haven't had the chance - until now!

My hair still isn't as long as I would like (pic above) but there's nothing that hair extensions can't fix. I'm still undecided as to whether to be really safe and to go with a standard ombre tone to my hair or to get a little colour added to it. I've posted some pictures for inspiration to help in my quest for two-toned hair. I really hope that it suits me - more importantly i really hope that I go through with it! Those who know me well know that i'm not particularly spontaneous and think about things far too rationally and for far too long. My hair is really dark so I don't think that I could go for a really blonde tone at the bottom but the two i've posted here are just perfect and blend perfect with the natural dark hair. 

The trend looks really great with a dash of colour but it probably requires a lot of upkeep. The turquoise tone and the blue one below are absolutely STUNNING! They're so mermaid-like and colourful and just ridiculously beautiful.

Collar Tips

I'm always looking for new and interesting ways to accessorize or customize my outfits. So you can imagine my excitement when I came across these amazing collar tips on the ASOS website. Collar tips are already popular amongst the 'country western' types but the range at ASOS focus on adding a more delicate, feminine touch to shirts. 

Fetish

The fetish trend is definitely my favourite for A/W and i can't wait to go shopping next week! The pieces above are on my wishlist at the moment and I will definitely be experimenting with some fetish-inspired looks this season.
