Update & Week In Pictures // #3

Hello my beauties!!

It has been a wee while since I blogged! (shocking I know) and if you've been following me on my twitter then you will know why, if you don't then ill give you a little heads up on whats been happening in the past month in the world of Dannie!

Firstly surprising to hear I finally found a job, which is the main reason why I've been so MIA these past weeks. I wont go into too much detail as I don't want everyone and their mum knowing where im located! haha. But I will say Im basically in an office job (boreeee) and yep it may not be the best job in the world but I needed one desperately as Im at that awkward age where I don't get child support as Im not a classed as a 'child' anymore and Im not old enough to claim benefits as Im not classed as an 'adult' either.. So im neither a child nor an adult, fantastic, So I am a nothing. Anyway I guess Im glad I got a job because when i turn 18 I didn't really want to turn to benefits, its just not the sort of thing I would want to do. So Im in it for the money on this one! Hopefully my beauty/makeup career kicks in soon because as you all know that is my real passion. I have been working 6 days a week and on the 7th I have been dancing, so a no-can-do on the blogging and videoing side! But now that I am on my shift hours I will be back on track with this and also Youtube. #firstdayoffin3weekswoohoo!

Anyways, want to know what I've been doing lately... in pictures? Well your in luck!

Whats in my handbag? // 2013

Hiya my lovelys!

Today I thought id show you whats in my bag, I know this tag has gone round youtube time and time again and its coming back! So my bag changes as the season changes so maybe I will do a summer version when the seasons change and the weather gets a little hotter.

My bag is a dog tooth/ hound tooth print, I have featured it many times in my blog before so you can find more about it here, I talk about where I got it from and how much and things so if you like it go check it out.
Also I apologies for the heavy picture content!
Take a sneak peak and lets get started! ...




Its a medium sized bag and I feel it seems to fit everything in just right and without it being too heavy. As you can see I don't take too many things, just the essentials. I also usually keep a water bottle to keep me hydrated throughout the day but I couldn't find one to put in for this post, so just pretend there's one there!


Umbrella
Obviously, as I live in England it rains practically 90% of the time so I always have to be prepared for a downfall. This umbrella is from Primark and it was £4.00 im pretty sure they still stock it so go check it out if you want.




Purse
I got this pure for Christmas but im pretty sure its also from Primark, not sure if its still in stock but its a pretty simple purse that you can find in most department stores, It has lovely gold hardware and two places to put your loose change, as you can see in the main one i put all my receipts. My name tag is actually from my cousins wedding she had them as name tags around the wine glasses and they were doubled up as table placements as well, cute idea.


Vanity Items
I don't like to take much makeup/toiletry's with me as my makeup seems to stay put bar my lipstick and carrying a huge makeup bag around will just weigh my bag down even more. I keep my all time favorite perfume in my bag No'5 Chanel Paris, I am in love with the muskyness of this perfume, It will always be my favorite! I also keep my lipstick in my bag, obviously swapping it out with each day so I can top up thought the day. Today im wearing Bourjois Paris lipstick in 01 sweet kiss. Also, I keep a nail file which will come in handy when i get a split nail.


Notepad & pen
I like to keep my diary with me at all times just in case i get inspired with a new YouTube video idea or a new post idea for this blog! Also, I obviously have my diary with me to keep myself organised though out the day and to make sure I don't forget anything i need to do! 


Keys
And last but no means least, the most important thing in my bag, my keys. Self explanatory really! Got my house key, bike key and other key charms!


This is how I wear my bag! I hope you enjoyed seeing whats in my handbag!
Post soon, Love Dannie xxx

Wishlist Wednesdays #1

Hello Lovely's,
Today Im starting a new 'series' i guess you'd call it on my blog! Wishlist Wednesdays! This wishlist thing I know is already pretty populair so id thought id jump on the bandwaggon, but make it my own because I love vintage fashion and im not to the highstreet fashion, so yeah! heres my first ever edition woohoo!



1. Romwe Retro Lapel Neck Black Dress £27.52
Now I already have this dress on order yay! I loved it so much after Leanne Woofull featured it in one of her outfit of the day's so I just had to get it, i love the fact the black contrasts beautifully with the crisp white details. Very Wednesday Adams esqe but I would add loads of bright colour into the outfit. But I also would love it with opaque black tights and black pumps!

2. Topshop MARLEY Suede Flatform Pumps £30.00
I love these shoes! I have tried these types of wedges on before and it feels like you wearing flats its crazy how comfy they can be! 

3. Topshop Structured Blazer £65.00
This beautiful raspberry coloured blazer is such a nice contrased and it adds a lovely pop of colour to the outfit. If I owned this blazer I would roll up the sleeves a little more just up to my waist as it emphasis my 'hour glass' figure.

4. River Island Black short statement necklace £12.00
I love the azteck design of this necklace and its the perfect size so its not over welming the dress but not just a small 'non existant' necklace, its beautiful! 

5. River Island Gold tone cross bracelet £3.00
This cute little bracelet I just added as an extra to match the necklace, it just adds a nice touch I love it.

I hope you enjoyed my first Wishlist Wednesday, Obviously I will be doing another one next wednesday! haha

Thanks for taking the time to read, 
Post soon, Love Dannie xx

OOTD // Alexander McQueen esqe

Hiya lovely's!

Today I just went out food shopping but it was pretty cold so I had to wrap up. Yet I still wanted to look stylish, no changes there then Dannie! Even if I'm going to a pig farm I will still dress like I'm meeting the Queen, for some tea and scones! This OOTD was obviously inspired by my Alexander McQueen dupe scarf from Primark! One day I will buy the real one, but for now this will do. This outfit is also featuring my new vintage dog tooth bag (featured here) I love this outfit, and its super cozy yet fashionable! Woohoo!




Coat - Next £60.00
Scarf - Primark £5.00
Tights - Primark £3.00 (2 pairs)
Red dress - Topshop £17.00
Bag - Vinatge (charity shop) £5.00 (& scarf)
Lipstick - Kate Moss by Rimmel London 110 Coral
Socks - Topshop £3.00
Boots - £40.00

Vintage/Shabby chic bedroom

Hiya my lovely's,
Today I filmed a video about how to get a shabby chic room on a budget.
I hope I inspired some people to redecorate their rooms for the new year woohoo. You can easily find cheap, vintage decor in Charity shops, Car boot sales and ebay! Don't be affraid to get stuck in and find some bargains!



My tips -
1// You don't need to be rich to have a nice room
2// You probably already have the basic furniture already in your bedroom
3// Add light to your room (Candles & Fairy lights)
4// Add floral patterns/prints
5// Theres a fine line between clutter and displaying your things
6// If you like it - display it!
7// Add height to your room
8// Add vintage wall art
9// Add pastel colours
10// Just have one wardrobe
11// Keep it clean!

Thanks for watching! And if you have any other tips make sure you comment and tell me!
Post soon, Love Dannie xx
