spring favourites

it is coming towards the last month of spring and i have some favourites that i have been loving...

1. maxi dresses

i feel like a maxi dress is my saviour when i have nothing to wear to something that is not too casual, not too formal. a maxi dress can be dressed up or down depending on the fabric and the accessories. i own 2 maxi dresses both in a chiffon style silk, one in red and one in white. i tend to wear them to brunches, get togethers or dinners...i love them!

2. bright lips

i LOVE bright lips, i have bought so many lipsticks in coral and pink this year...it's such a fun look and can really make you stand out in a plain outfit. always keep bright lips paired with a neutral eye (i like winged eyeliner...)

3. red lips

i think red lips are great all year round but i have been wearing them especially this spring (maybe because of all the birthday get togethers i have been to). i enjoy wearing a red lip when my outfit is basic or is one plain colour, i feel it makes the outfit more vibrant (again wear with a neutral eye).

4. winged eyeliner

this is my favourite eyeliner look at the moment and i especially love it with a thin line of bright shadow above it...depending on the size of the wing it is good for night and day and it's also really easy and quick to do!

5. coloured smokey eye

i think this is such a good look for spring! sometimes a black smokey eye is a bit harsh, especially if the what you are wearing it to is in the day. so i like to use a colour as the base, for example blue, purple or green are nice. still use darker shades of these colours so it's still a smokey eye but it makes the look less harsh and easier to wear from function to function!

6. wedges

i don't have a pair but i really really really want one! i don't really like the look of wedges with a cork heel but i do love a black wedge (especially in suede, which is what i want!) i think they go nicely with nearly every outfit, from a maxi dress to a cocktail dress to jeans! they are also amazing for when you are standing on grass, which will be a lot in spring, and i kind of wish i wore some wedges to my school ball instead of dying with leg cramps!!

(my image uploader just broke?! but i was going to attach some jeffrey campbell wedges which are AMAZING!!!)

i don't want spring to end! i love the fashion and the way everything looks in spring but then again i am looking forward to summer!
