lets spice it up!

Lately I have seen girls wandering around, whether it be the mall or the school halls, who are wearing an outfit that potentially could be extremly cute. I think you know who I am talking about the ones who wear the tees and jeans and thats it. Well today I have decided to take it upon myself to show/tell you how to spice up a simple basic outfit with just a few key things.



1. Jewellery: Never, ever underestimate the impact a necklace or a few bangles can make. Say you are wearing a pair of fitted jeans and a simple t-shirt, add on a bold necklace and you look 10x more fashionable.

2. Shoes: I always do this. I will just be wearing my long sleeved tee and my favourite jeans but it looks boring and instead of jewellery I will just add on a pair of boots and oila frumpy to slightly more chic in less then 10 seconds.

3. Belts: This is an extremley simple thing to do and you would be suprised at the impact a skinny patent belt over a tee will make and the same thing goes for a wide belt on your hips over jeans.

Sweet Escape; and I Could Be Your Favourite Girl

Yes, well I had an interesting weekend. My brother was in a hockey tournament and the hotel we were staying caught on fire, well one room did anyway. Luckily no one was hurt and the managed to put it out quickly but still, everything ranked of smoke. ah well...

Oops sorry, f-a-s-h-i-o-n blog, fashion. My bad, sorry.

And back on the fashion train i have decided to post my Top 6 favourite fashion pieces and trends.



1. Bright Blue
I love how this color just pops, i can't get enough blue!


TopShop 80's Band Tunic £12.00

2. Stripes
Over half my tops are striped i swear. It appeals to the sporty side of me i think.


Forever 21 sweater $14.80

3. Skinny Jeans
I know they dont flatter everyone but they do flatter me, and i like them if they are worn differently than everyone else.


American Eagle Straight 77 Jean $24.95

4. Lipgloss
This gloss especially is my favourite, it smells so good, mosturizes your lips and has a hint of color.


Bonnebell Vita Gloss 2o $6 at drugstores.

5. Sneaker Flats
Stylish, yet comfortable. what more can i say.

Keds ShiShi Skimmer $44.99

6. Headbands
Perfect for holding back those stray hairs in a ponytail or just keeping your hair out of your face.

Claires Headband $3.50


P.S. check out my sweet watch i got yesterday. it was on sale from $100 to $22. steal!
