Peachy Apparel.



H&M Top, Skirt & Necklace// MAC Costa Chic lipstick

I had a bit of a shopping binge in H&M today, although I bought a fair bit it didn't cost all that much and I was pleasantly surprised when I got to the till. I'm in love with this skirt! It reminds me of the one from American Apparel! But obviously heaps cheaper. 
I also bought it in grey because it's such a bargain at £6.99!

I really, really need something done to my hair! I'm thinking of getting either a sweeping side fringe or a straight fringe cut in, but I'm not sure. Any suggestions? I have no idea which salon to visit in Leeds either! Does anyone have any suggestions?

I also stopped off at the MAC counter on the way back, I picked up Costa Chic lipstick and a blusher in Springsheen. I've been after Costa Chic for so long now, it's a gorgeous coral colour. I picked up the Springsheen blush because it's not like anything I have (that I can think of, my blush collection is massive!) and it's quite a dark peachy/coral colour with gold speckles. It kind of reminds me of the NARS Orgasm or Super Orgasm blushes.


L-R: Costa Chic lipstick & Springsheen powder blush swatches. 

I absolutely love them! I'm wearing Costa Chic in the outfit pictures and it looks gorgeous!

What does everyone think?

    Straight fringe, please! It looks far more interesting, IMO.

    The Costa Chic swatch looks fantastic! I'm having hard times wearing Vegas Volt (bright coral in your face...) so this could be a more wearable option.

    Costa chic looks gorgeous I keep seeing it everywhere and now I am craving it :). I love the skirt, 6.99 that's a bargain and it really is like the American Apparel ones I have to go check it out. xx

    I can't believe that skirt was only £6.99, it's gorgeous! I definitely need to get myself to H&M. I get my hair cut at Hob salon, I think it's on Boar Lane and it's near Subway. I loved the way they cut my hair, and you get 50% off your first visit, 40% off your second visit and 35% off your third visit. Bargain!

    Lovely skirt and top, nicely co-ordinated.
    I'm a big fan of striped stuff and I think peach is such a lovely colour too.

    Hey! I've been following your little blog for ages and love it - deffo going to invest in one of those skirts as I have that top but never know what to wear it with apart from jeans.
    I've been going to Cutting Room Creative in Leeds for a couple of years now, and I recommend them to anyone/everyone. They sorted my hair out beautifully after me turning up with a mop that hadn't been brushed in literally a year or so, and it turned out one side was an unintentional inch longer than the other. If you're a student they give you 50% between Monday-Thursday on all appointments (although even if you aren't, they've never actually asked me, I don't think I've ever shown my ID before!). I also go with a stylist called Ashleigh and she cuts my hair wonderfully - plus I get free fringe trims in between visits which is always a plus as I've got a straight fringe that grows so quickly.

    Oh and great bargain ;)
