Holographic Hero

 I've been searching for an affordable holographic nail polish for a while and now I've found the perfect one! I discovered this amazing nail polish by Gosh (Holographic Hero) in Superdrug for under £5 and I love it but be warned- holographic nail polishes usually sell out pretty fast. It applies really well and adds a subtle rainbow shimmer to your nails. This is my new favourite nail polish.

Feeling Flamingo

I Want To Be A Flamingo by lauren290591 featuring high heels

 It might seem a bit odd but I'm loving all things flamingo at the moment. I think a quirky flamingo print top would look cute with some pink jeans, which I've been meaning to buy practically forever. Over Summer I'll definitely be channeling my inner flamingo- are you feeling flamourous?

Lauren Loves ♥: Anything Pink!

The Hunger Games: Fashion Inspiration

Girl On Fire by lauren290591 featuring high heels

District 4: Fishing Fashion. by lauren290591 featuring platform shoes

 I love the Hunger Games Trilogy. After a nightmare dealing with my copies of the books when I ordered them I finally managed to read them all a while ago and now I can't wait to see the film! I've created some HG related collages that are inspired by the books/ film; the first is about Katniss- The Girl on Fire, and the second one is inspired by District 4- The Fishing District. Hope you enjoyed them!

Spring Style

Spring Style by lauren290591 featuring cross body handbags

 Spring has sprung and the warmer weather is making me feel like my clothes need to be brighter! I'm loving the map print and shades such as lime green and peachy corals at the moment. Hope this gives you a little bit of inspiration.

Pastel Passion

Pastels by lauren290591

 I love the pastel trend, it's perfect for spring.

 I wish I could pull pastel shades off but being very pale they always make me look washed out. I like how pastel colours can give outfits a vintage kind of vibe but I always feel awkward wearing dresses in the day time for some reason and I don't think vintage outfits suit me although I do love vintage fashion.

 Even though I'm wary of pastels I think I'll at least be wearing some pastel accessories and makeup when the sun comes out to play! What's your favourite pastel item at the moment?

Easy Spring Pastel Eye Makeup Tutorial

 This is a really easy 5 minute Spring eye makeup look.

All you need is: white eye shadow, purple eye shadow, green eye shadow, green eyeliner, and eyelash curlers.

 Step 1: Apply white eye shadow all over the lid and along the lower lash line.

 Step 2: Apply purple eye shadow over the lid and blend.

 Step 3: Apply green eye shadow close to your lower lash line.

 Step 4: Apply green eyeliner to your lower rim.

 Step 5: Use an eyelash curler on your lashes and leave them mascara free or use clear mascara for a softer Spring look.

 You can try this easy look with any two contrasting pastel shades and be ready for Spring in 5 minutes! If you're unsure about wearing pastel colours why not try some fun pastel toe nail art?

Middle Eastern Trend

 Summer seems so far away but I can't wait to feel warm again! I think that all things Middle Eastern will be perfect for the hot weather and will be able to add glamour to your day.

 Think dark, mysterious eye makeup, hamsa hands, snakes, eyes and lots of gold. Wear it casually or at night; you can add a patterned scarf and bright Middle Eastern jewellery to brighten up the cold days until summer arrives too.

 I've got my gold hamsa hand jewellery ready but what will you be wearing this summer? Let me know if you're planning ahead like me!


Lauren Loves ♥: Middle Eastern mystery and charm.

Dalmatian Inspiration

Lauren Loves ♥: 101 Dalmatians! I'm such a 90's kid.

Studs & Spikes & Skulls

From: http://www.vogue.co.uk/fashion/trends/2011-12-autumn-winter/fetish/gallery#/image/10

 Everybody is loving the Fetish trend right now, It's all about textures and toughness.
 This trend mirrors the dark, harsher atmosphere of winter; wear head-to-toe black for a sophisticated edge or add a splash of colour if you're feeling daring.
 I'm not suggesting you should strut your stuff down the high street in a PVC catsuit, you can follow this trend by simply wearing a leather jacket, a skull print scarf or carrying a studded bag.

 Even Lady Gaga is a fan of the Fetish trend, in this photo she is wearing a black chiffon Versace dress with gold stud detailing and shiny black accessories:

   Here are some pieces that will hopefully inspire you:
