La Vie De La Beaute

Unpredictable Weather Outfit - OOTD **

Lately as many of you may have experienced the weather has seriously been playing up on us.. One minute it's cold and rainy and the next minute the sun is out! With the weather being like this you never know what to end up wearing - at least I don't anyway! However, I wore this outfit recently and many people loved the outfit so I thought I would share the details with you over on my blog.

Even though this outfit is mainly full of dark colours, I love how the jumper and the gorgeous tote bag finishes the look with its pastel colours! It brings back the spring vibes and adds some colour to the outfit.

If you’re like me and love black then maybe something similar to this outfit would totally rock you too. Oh & can I just mention this bag is like my new baby it has just been going with so many of my more basic simple outfits lately!

The quality of this bag is amazing and I have managed to fit tons of things in here because it is extremely spacious! I have received so many compliments on how gorgeous the bag is and everyone seems to notice the lovely pastel colours on it too.

I am going to be doing a separate post on the actual bag very soon so keep your eyes peeled for that one! Anyways, here is the outfit with the deets’ you need.

Jersey Dress - Outlet Store

Knitted Cropped Jumper - H&M

Leggings - New Look

Bag - LYDC**

Now many of you may think that this is a skirt and top but I got you there! It’s actually a jersey dress. For me, I feel like jersey dresses show your figure too much and for a hijabi that isn't very modest so I put a jumper over the top which covers the back half and some of the front to give it the effect of a skirt and top which I actually really like.

Now if you love the bag as much as I do and want to grab yourself one like this or even maybe something similar then I have some good news for you. LYDC were kind enough to give me a 10% discount code for all of my lovely readers. So go check out their website to see if you like anything and use this discount code:-

Anyway, that’s all from me for today. I hope you enjoyed reading this post and liked this outfit. If you did then leave me a comment below and follow me on my social media to keep up to date with me!

Lots of love

Beauty Wishlist | #1

Hi guys, today I thought I would bring you a new type of post. I have never actually done a wish list post on my blog but as I am always looking at new fashion, beauty/makeup products I thought it would be nice if I did one up on my blog as I always see other bloggers do it so why not join the bandwagon!

Whenever I'm shopping I always end up wanting everything - which by the way I can barely afford. I'm BROKE - I seriously need to get a decent job! (Someone hire me!) So by doing a wish list I have kind of restricted myself which is in some way helpful.

I've got quite a few beauty products that I have my eyes on but I've tried to cut it down. I wouldn’t usually put a lot of beauty products on my wish list for one month but seeing as it's my birthday month I added a few sneaky extra bits - A girls gotta’ treat herself now and then!

Anyway, the following items are on my beauty list for this month:-

Liz Earl Cleanse & Polish - Hot Cloth Cleanser

I always see other youtubers and bloggers rave about how good this product is and it's been on my list for quite some time now so I really do want to get my hands on this. I own the Liz Earl toner spritzer and I absolutely love it so I think that this product would do wonders!

They recently have come out with a limited edition bottle which looks super cute and adorable but I don’t really mind which I get as long as I have the actual product ha-ha =P

MAC Lipstick

There are 2 MAC lipsticks which I have had my eyes on lately. They are Creme in your Coffee (Right) and Verve (Left). Both of these are such gorgeous shades!

NUXE Reve DeMiel Lip Balm

I tend to get chapped dry lips a lot and I've tried many lip balms and many of them haven't really worked on me. I’ve seen a few of my fave Instagram beauty accounts and some bloggers say positive stuff about this one so only fair if I give it a shot my self 'ey!

Nip+FabDragons Blood Fix Plumping Serum

I feel like my skin needs a bit more love at the minute as I have been having a lot more breakouts and my skin has been a lot dryer in areas of my face which is not normal for me. I really have been slacking with my skincare routine :(

I've read up some good things on this serum so I defo want to get my hand on this - need to build up on a good skincare routine again.

Benefit Hoola Bronzer

Well, do I even need to say anything about this?! Literally every YouTube makeup guru probably owns this bronzer & if that's the case then I think it's time I treat my self to one too - if not this month maybe next month J

MAC Prolong Wear Concealer - NW25

I got my shade tested not to long ago at the MAC store and boy was the coverage of this amazing! I've actually wanted to purchase this from quite a while back but just have never brought myself to buy it.

Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet Lipstick Nude-ist

Once again, I’ve read many reviews on their rouge edition velvet lipsticks and many people have loved them. A bunch of my friends own some of the colours and they were telling me about how great they are! Ahhh the colour of this looks so pretty! Let’s just hope it looks just as good on the lips too once I get round to purchasing it.

So there you have my beauty wishlist for this month. Let me know some items that are on your wishlist for this month in the comments down below & also if you enjoyed reading this sort of post do let me know so I can do more in the future :D

Have a lovely week & speak to you all very soon
Lots of love

I'm Back

I'm Back Again!

I'm Back :D
(Not my Image)

Hello there to all my fellow readers! How are you all doing? I am currently just sitting in my room with a view of the beautiful clear blue sky and can feel the heat of the sun which is hitting through my window - However, having said that it’s probably still cold outside. The weather is literally changing all the time! If you live in Britain you might have experienced the weird weather lately. After all, I guess that’s just Britain for you!

I am fully aware that I haven't blogged in what feels like ages. I didn’t forget about my blog or you guys I just needed some time off. I could easily sit here and say I have been busy lately but the truth is I haven't felt motivated to blog recently or I just didn't feel like blogging so I stopped. I didn't want to be forcing myself to do posts when I didn't want to. For me, my blog is a place where I can write about what I want, when I want & for those who enjoy what I do, then they can come and tune in and read my posts. Some weeks I feel as though I don't want to blog and that is why I haven't posted.

Whilst talking about all of this, I also just want to let all of you lovely readers and followers know that I am truly grateful and thankful for all your love and support. Thank you to every single one of you who are always so sweet, kind and supportive whether that be through comments, by liking my posts, following me on social media or even just going to read my posts. It’s all the little things that add up right?

Anyway, I've also had other things going in my life which can get in the way sometimes but the plan is to be back to blogging again. However I can’t promise you a post every week just yet! Oh before I let you guys go, I have some special things planned for you guys so I do hope you will enjoy them once I share them with you all. Once again thank you for everything. It truly does mean a lot to me!

If any of you have any suggestions for blog posts that you would like me to do then do leave me a comment below =)

Hope to speak to you all very soon

Much Love

Day Trip To Birmingham | Star City

Hi Guys,

So as you may or may not know, 2 weeks ago I headed over to Star City which is in Birmingham for the day as it was one of my best friends birthday. I had never been to Star City before this so I was pretty excited & not only that I hadn’t seen her for quite a while just because we are currently studying different courses and at different places so it’s a lot harder as our schedules are very different.

I had such an amazing day spending the day out with my close friends. Star City itself is actually really pretty and has some lovely attractions around so it’s pretty nice for any tourists and people who visit the place in general.

Star City is actually full of different attractions, so there is something to suit everyone. So whether you want to have a go at mini golf, bowling, go watch a movie or have an adventure Star City has quite the lot!

When we got there, we didn’t explore around much and decided to head straight to ten pin bowling. After we got there, we kind of realised that we missed out on a huge offer – If you happen to go bowling in Star City on a Tuesday you can get it for half price or something along those lines but that is ONLY if you book it online ( so for anyone who does go there just a little side note – BOOK IT ONLINE you might get some discount =D )

Nevertheless, we still went ahead with bowling. We decided to play 2 games. I must admit both times I was pretty rubbish! I hadn’t done bowling in the longest time ever so I don’t blame my self haha! After all it’s all about having fun and enjoying yourself which I definitely did! Alongside the bowling, they had lots of other different mini fun games around.

After two long games of bowling, we were all very hungry. They had a variety of different restaurants ranging from Chinese, Indian, American & Italian! We decided to go eat at a place called Oodles n’ Noodles. I’m a big fan of noodles so I ordered myself some special vegetable Chow Mein noodles & Damn were they spicy! I can do spicy but this was just too much for my taste buds! However, it was still delicious!

After we had eaten we relaxed for a while. It was then time to head back to Leicester as we were going to meet some other friends too. I had such an amazing time at Star City & for anyone who hasn’t been there yet then I would definitely recommend you to check it out if you get the chance :D

I hope you guys enjoyed reading this kind of post – It’s slightly different to my usual blogging style but do let me know what you thought in the comments section :D

A quick shout out to the birthday girl Mehreen! I hope you had an amazing birthday and enjoyed your day out as much as I did :*

Lots of love
