LATTICE LACEUP

   This slouchy oversized dress is so versatile, I'm not really the sort of girl to go for the slogan look, I      
   think this is because I often look back and think why did I buy that (I don't know why haha)
   Anyway recently I've been really loving the lace up dresses with a touch of text to it to give it that
   extra detail.

   This dress / oversized top gives me all sorts of vibes like... you could wear it to the airport because    
   it is super lightweight and comfy which = perfect for travelling and id personally pair it with with a
   nude pair of NMDS from Adidas or anything white. Another option is to of course dress it up a
   little, which is what I have done with this outfit.

For this outfit I have decided to go a bit more dressy than causal so I took my nude perspex heels which are from Public Desire. I love these because when you're sat there wondering which heels to pair with an outfit these go with absolutely anything and everything with them being clear, they are never going to clash.

I've listed all products below, unfortunately i couldn't find the dress on the missguided website but I've found some alternatives of different slogan dresses in general incase you like this style!

REAL RUFFLES

Before I properly get into this blog post, I feel I need to get something off my chest.
I have been so ghost for a while on my blog.. because In all honesty I really struggle taking photos for myself and it can take hours and hours to get the perfect photos.. especially when you can't see your positioning, angles and facial expressions haha!

Anyway I don't really want to make excuses, but I have actually missed writing about how I style things and my love for fashion.

In the meantime, I have been posting most days on my Instagram of my outfits, which is what I would plan to post on my blog. The only difference is I'm not writing about it and the pictures aren't as amazing as I want them to be.

Thankfully I have sorted this out and I am so grateful to my close friend for taking these photos for me.

Okay now I have got my ramble out of the way onto talk about this gorgeous sky blue dress from Zara...

 At the minute I'm completely obsessed with anything that has big puffy sleeves, cute little ties and I am loving the silver circle which is part of the belt, it just gives a perfect detail to the outfit.



Heres a close up of the circle tie belt..

Moving onto shoes.. I bought these heeled sandals from Topshop just a few days ago. I have been eyeing these up for a few weeks now, but I had only seen them in silver and wasn't as keen. However I was checking the last chance section a couple of days back which is 100% my favourite part of Topshop! and I found the shoes I had been looking for in white. It was definitely worth the wait because now we are transitioning into summer, I'm all about wearing white with a golden tan!

All details will be listed down below, unfortunately this dress is sold out! but I have linked some alternatives and also linked the shoes down below. If you just click on the photo it will take you straight to the website so you can have a look.

RUBY WOO

Welcome to my makeup portfolio, I was going to make a completely separate website for my business page however, then i decided it would made a lot more sense to have all my interests and work all in one place. Alongside this I have my other work in fashion, beauty and lifestyle blogging.

On my social media I have created an Instagram and Facebook Business Page, as I am now a Level 3 MACPRO Certified Makeup Artist. I have one account for my fashion blogging and my other account for my makeup & buisness page. I like to keep these separate just so I feel organised and can focus on each thing at a time. My fashion account is @oliviarbrady and my MUA account is @oliviabradymua. (Instagram and Facebook- I will leave all links below)

I am going to be posting on my Blog, Instagram, Facebook and my Youtube channel.
I have put everything into categories so for example if you would like to see the 'Makeup Services' I provide.. you would click on that button at the top of my blog and it would tell you the services and pricelist. I will also put my contact details to get in touch with any questions and appointments you would like to book!

Thanks for reading and please stay updated for more portfolio photos of clients makeup including bridal, special occasion, day makeup, special FX and more!

All links to makeup products will be left down below literally just click on the photo. I'll also be styling this bodysuit up..so stay tuned for that in a fashion blogpost!

SMOCK JUMPSUIT DRESS

Just want to say sorry if the quality of the pictures aren't as clear because whenever I enlarge them they seem to go blurry? which is so annoying!! However if you look on my instagram the images are a lot better just wanted to get that out the way first.

So I popped into Zara the other day and there was a particular section I was drawn to and it was all white and denim and I saw this cute little number and thought it would be perfect for the summer weather as its starting to get warmer now yay! I love the fact that this is long sleeved aswell, so on the cooler breezy days this is great. It's a very oversized fit as this is a smock style. If you like the oversized look then this is definitely a piece to invest in.

As a girl we all worry about the skirts or dresses blowing up at the back with the wind, so another good thing is that this dress has shorts underneath aswell so you don't need to worry about all that.

I for sure will be getting lots of wear out of this over the months and I love wearing white in this weather I feel it makes your skin looking so bronze and tanned.

I've listed a variety of options of a similar style dress due to this being out of stock! If you just click on the photo it takes you straight to the website instead of you searching for hours trying to find it.

KHAKI STITCH

 

If you've seen my last post on here you'll see that I posted my recent youtube video on a rather big Missguided haul I filmed a few days ago! I have a slight phobia of ordering things online just because they always look amazing on the website and the items don't always end up fitting but everything I purchased the other day from Missguided fits perfectly.

My whole order consisted of nudes khaki and pinky mauve shades as they are definitely my favourite colour schemes to wear if you hadn't already guessed. I also have to add something black and white to the basket as they are staples for my wardrobe.

Im in love with the detailing on this dress and the little slit at the back and the quality honestly feels amazing. I can't wait to wear this to an event and I've been loving the 'midi' trend for a while now its a great way to get away with wearing dresses and skirts in spring when its not quite hit summer and you can bare a bit of leg to be on show. 

I paired this dress with these khaki heels and I think it looks perfect with the dress.

MISSGUIDED HAUL

MOM

First of all I'd just like to start off saying now the weather is starting to get better, I am hoping to get a lot more content up on here as I've not done any blogging for over a month now and I've hated not being able to do it!! Just thought I'd say I'm really particular with my backgrounds, I don't like anything messy in the background and I feel as if its really hard for me to find places to shoot as I have to take all my own photos and it can be really hard in the typical English weather taking photos in the rain..roll on summer.

Anyway I am loving grey at the moment and since I bought the 'Dior Dupes' months ago, I decided I've got to start wearing a lot more grey pieces purely because I need more wear out of these beautiful boots! The other day I picked up some MOM jeans. I've liked MOM jeans in which feels like forever, however I just thought with it being such thick denim and a baggy fit it wouldn't suit me. I'm not used to wearing light shades of denim either as I tend to opt for the darker shades as I feel they suit me more, but when i tried these on I actually fell in love with them!

I think these will be so cute in the summer aswell with some cute laceup sandals or if you're feeling more a casual effortless look I would opt for some birkenstocks and a little cami. I think these are a staple for your wardrobe and I think they are something you can just pick out whenever as they go with pretty much anything.


Also just want to also put out that whilst I haven't posted in a few weeks I have started my Youtube channel finally!! If you've read my first blog post you will know I've wanted to do this for soooooo long now and I've finally plucked up the courage. So please go and check it out I will be posting makeup tutorials/ hauls / lookbooks / Q&A's / Challenges / Skincare routines etc!

links for the items will be listed down below so you can just click on the photo and it will take you to the website! If anything is sold out i will always link something similar down below if i can find it aswell.
