OOTD: WORK CARIBBEAN EVENING

Dress: Oasis | Blazer: River Island | Belt: Primark

Oh lord, so here it is. The nerve wracking first ever OOTD. I am off to a lovely Caribbean themed travel event this evening so thought I would show you what I am wearing. I love this blazer as it goes with absolutely everything and I love the stud detailing on the lapels. I got the dress in the Christmas Oasis sale for £25 - its a beautiful colour and I think I am going to get a lot of use out of it!

Hope you like this post, and as always I would really welcome some feedback and tips on taking OOTD's!

HAIR EXTENSIONS

I have had hair extensions since around September last year. They are easy to look after, make my hair longer (obviously) and I get them at an amazing price. Win, Win, Win. My natural hair is just about shoulder length and in pretty bad condition - the hair extensions seem to hide both of these things! The light in the picture doesn't show the true colour of my hair which is a medium red colour. On a side note, this is the first time I have used a tripod for my camera - can anyone give me any tips on taking nice pictures of myself?!

I get my hair extensions put in by a lovely girl, Vicky. She is the owner of Hair Extensions by V and absolutely lovely to deal with. She will work with you to find the right shades and colours to match your hair and give you great aftercare advice to keep the extensions looking tip top. I get the pre-bonded extensions and these last me 2-3 months. You can view her Facebook page to keep to date with the latest offers and competitions.

RIMMEL KATE LASTING FINISH LIPSTICK

As an extremely pale skinned girly, I am constantly on the lookout for that perfect red lipstick which compliments my skin tone. When I heard about Kate Moss' range of brightly coloured lipsticks, I was eager to try them out. I went for shade 01 - a pink toned shade of red. The lipstick is well pigmented and true to colour and glided on easily. I don't think this is the 'one' however on a night out this looks great with toned down eye make up and LBD. For daytime use however, I think it's a no-no - it's just a bit to 'glizty' for my liking! Althought this wasn't the shade for me, I'm going to try some of the other colours in the range to see if they are more suited to my milky complexion!

Have you tried any of the Kate Moss lipsticks? Are you pale skinned like me? What shade did you find suited you best?
