As we all know, Spring is close and all I can think about is blossoming nature, natural colours and the warmth of the sun.

This has made me want to browse my most loved website ASOS for some key pieces and create an inspiration board.

They are just doing 20% off that you might want to take advantage of, I know I will try to buy a few pieces straight away :-) and I wanted to share this with all of my stylish followers.

I tend to always buy my pieces when I can the make the most of my money because the student life is hard. I like to save as much as possible on my shopping !

info: They have free international delivery on all orders!
If you are interested in any of the below, click the photo and it will take you straight to the product's website ;) easy peasy !




To me, this Spring is all about pale coloured pieces such as the white structured shirt, the beautiful satin double breasted jacket & suit, straw hats and blush pink trench coats and jackets. 

All of this is balanced with a bit of denim star trousers and shirt and lace-up open heel boots

What colour scheme are you going to choose this Spring?

Sometimes, girls, all we need is to be comfortable and chic, nothing more-nothing less. This is my take on a lazy day when, for once, I am not wearing joggers and a simple Tee.
Sometimes, casual can be different and natural, simple and quick without a complicated hairstyle or a face full of make-up. We have to embrace our good/bad skin, hide our huge dark circles under a chic pair of sunglasses - and here we go on our journey !

Yours truly,
AndraV

I had to amazing opportunity of being invited to a lovely, private event that had the idea of getting together as many Liverpool (& area) bloggers as possible. The event was held at Revolution, we had a private area just for ourselves, we had drinks, food & a lot of fun.

Everyone I met has been amazing and lovely, chatty and also gorgeous. It feel very nice to finally feel like I am part of a community - Liverpool Bloggers




The only downside for such an event, the location Wi-Fi was not working ! Horrible when you think we were a bunch of ladies addicted to our social media...

On a brighter note, after the Cocktail Masterclass and a few shots we were all happy and enjoying  the night ;-)


The night was amazing and I personally had a lot of fun, mingled with everyone and met amazing ladies. It was a nice was of spending my Saturday evening. I was very sad when I had to leave and go home... I can only hope we'll meet up again very soon !


At the end, Liverpool Bloggers was kind enough to set up personalised goody bags for us and here is what I received:


Beauty Bazaar, Harvey Nichols 



One of the sponsors, was Beauty Bazaar, Harvey Nichols and gifted me with this very useful selection of products. I have always been a fan of Estee Lauder and I must admit, I fanned girl when I saw the goodies. The Travel Kit by Environ will come in handy when I travel back home for Easter, while the Sun Care SPX 50+ by Cellex C will be used as soon as it becomes warm in the UK. I personally use SFP15 in the winter, but as soon as April I switch to SPF50.
I have already tried the NAILSINC nail polish on my toes, and the colour pay-off is amazing !
I am excited to give the James Read Sleep Mask Tan Face a try and see whether I can achieve a healthier complexion.
From Estee Lauder, I was gifted:
Advanced Night Repair Eye cream - which I am obsessed with
Soft Clean Hydrating Lotion
Perfectly Clean Splay Away Foaming Cleanser
And last but not least, the Gucci Bamboo sample

If you are in the search for a fully hand-made piece of garment, that is quirky and personalised, I would totally recommend their shop. Their designs are basic and easy to wear, mix and match, but also they will set you apart from everyone.

The Vintage Corner

If you are one of my old readers, you might know my obsession with vintage pieces. To me they inspire me to be classy and ladylike, while at the same time recycle and be more individual, rather than be like everyone else.
This shop is exactly that, if you are in the Liverpool area and are looking for a vintage shop, I would totally go and check the girls at The Vintage Corner. Affordable prices and amazing style !

Liverpool Bloggers

Lastly, but not least, after organising such an amazing event, the ladies at Liverpool Bloggers also added some cute and useful pieces to out goody bags.
I was gifted a white photo frame which I will put on my desk after posting this :-D
A hair towel, this should keep me well away from walking with my hair went and dripping everywhere ;)
And a dry bag that will come to good use soon :D

It's almost Valentine's Day and everyone talks about it.
My take on it ?
Have fun, love each other and take time for yourselves. Don't go crazy or spend a fortune on it.
This morning, the phone rang and a delivery man asked me to go and pick up a parcel. It was a beautiful bouquet of flowers from the boyfriend. I was happily surprised because he thought about it, and especially because he hates doing something predictable.

Thank love. I was surprised ! <3

On the other hand, feel free to do something out of the ordinary to surprise your other half. I for example, decided to put on a sexy lace dress and to wear it for the day. I normally only wear, the good old comfy and cosy loungewear aka this beautiful and old chunky knitted sweater. Today, I still had to feel comfy and therefore, I added a huge knitted cardigan on top.

the outfit is sexy without screaming "sex" 

Yours truly,
AndraV

Love,
AndraV

I love the texture of the cardigan agains the jeans and a bit of pop with the help of my take OUT box bag.
