How to get big curls

Hey Guys,
So im a lover of big curly hair I just love when my hair is big and curly
If im wearing my hair like this then I feel it totally works with what ever outfit

Its totally easy to achieve this look
I naturally have big fussy hair so its quite easy for me to achieve
To those who have a more natural straight thin hair I can not guarantee it will work for you but no harm in  given it ago,
To you I say wash your hair towel dry your hair leave it dry naturally
There are so many products out now to give you volume so go to any Boots/Superdrug im sure you will find some thing
Personaly I love the UNBERTO GIANNINI <BACKCOMB IN A BOTTLE>
It really does work so go try it out♡

First of all to achieve this look I used some of BOOTS STYLE WORK HEAT, PROTECT SERUM

next I sprayed my hair with a product that isnt for your hair but i use when I have my hair like this for a great shine
GARNIER BODY ULTIMATE BODY OIL
Illuminates Nourishes Perfects
I think its great in my opinion, why not try it out and let me know how ye find it♡
I used a wound to create this look
This is a picture of my hair before I curled it
I parted my hair and got to work
dont take big strands of hair as the curl will be to big
heres a picture of the curls I made
so section by section I curled my hair and this is what i ended up with
so now run your fingers threw your hair brushing out the curls for a more bouncy look
taking your back combing brush back comb the curls from top to bottom
working alround the head
really give it a good brush it really does make the hair bigger
keep goin till you get the big full curly look your trying to achieve
when finished spray with hair spray to hold your outstanding curls
so why not give it ago and see how you get on
here are a few pictures
hope ye enjoyed this hair blog
thanks for reading you guys 
much love ♡♡♡

♡Maxi skirt to short skirt♡


Hey you guys, How was every ones long weekend, good I hope.
Hope every one enjoyed easter and there eggs, I no we did 

This blog is about how to wear a long maxi skirt two ways
Short + long

This particular maxi skirt im using is from new look, last years collection but these maxi skirts are always about in the summer so its definitely not hard to get yer hands on them.
I just pared this maxi skirt with a baggie oversized kintwear 
I tucked in the top and just added a simple chain but left it tucked inside my top,

I love this colour maxi its very summer it has that pop about it,
This maxi also has pockets which I totally think are great especially as most maxi skirts don't have pockets. 
I love the length of this maxi 
when im wearing this i dont want to wear shoes its just the vibe i feel when wearing, but obviously I live in ireland not spain so shoes are a must...

I just slipped on some gold pumps open toes.
Which are from pennys/primark cost-€11
These shoes will be worn alot as so simple to match um with alot of clothes.
Long maxi skirts dont just have to be worn long If your sick of wearing your maxi long and especially with the good weather Ireland and UK haven been getting then why not change it up and also make it short.
No one will guess that it is in fact a long maxi
so all you gotta do is grap the bottom of your maxi bring it up underneath to the top of your skirt open your zip a little and pull it over the top of the skirt this is only to get the maxi short and to make sure that its all one length around.

When you have fixed your length in how short you want your maxi zip your maxi up and grap a belt and what ever needs to be tucked away up top, just simply hide in the inside 
As the belt will hold up the end part of your maxi maken it look like any other short flowly skirt♡
Why not give it a try and see how it goes
This maxi Is from last years collection In newlook. So I Ive posted two other maxi skirts similar one from Boohoo cost-€16 and the Other from Newlook cost-€22. 
I hope ye enjoyed reading this and it gives ye a little idea to use♡ 
And remembre if you like it wear it
love melanie ♡♡♡

Now I will say to you to try on any MUMMY JEANS before you purchase as ive heard alot of girls say they love um on other girls but when they have tried them on they didnt like how they looked so I definitely will say try on before hand.

Day to nite look♡

Hey guys
Hope every one had a great weekend.
Today's blog is about "day to night look"
This is the oufit I wore yesterday and also did a night look to.
So I hope ye enjoy♡

The shirt that this look is based on is from-Pennys
Cost-€13
Its a lovely light shirt which can be worn in warmer or cold weather if its not a warm day then slip on a little white string top.
I love these colours together a peachy pinky on white.
And I love that oversized look, Pennys shirts are quite good for oversized shirts.
I pared this shirt with plain white denims from-H&M
Cost-€12.95
Footwear-I wore light beige ankle boots from-RiverIsland
I got these boots awhile back in sale so we do not stock them any more,
But any ankle boots that are light will go.
Today for my hair was just a "throw it up messy bun day"
Us ladies do get those days wher you just want your hair up off your face and messy buns can look supper nice with most outfits.
Earings-NewLook
Cost, wait for this.....
€1
Yes ladies ye are reading rite a €1.
Newlook have a sale on at the moment and most of there jewellery is half price.
So definitely a bargain.
My finger tip rings are from-Pennys
Cost-€1.50
My oversized bag was a present from a good mate and I just love this bag its perfect size for me as I do carry so much in my bag...dont us ladies all...
My jacket is oversized from-Forever21
Its from awhile back so I cant remember the price.
I also threw on a scarf to dress up this outfit abit more.
Makeup-I just went for a peachy pink light look not to dramatic.
So this was my day look.
Pictures are al down below

Night look♡♥

For a night out on the tiles at last minute and you do not know what to wear.
Just touch up your make up,
If make up is applied right and a good powder is used to lock in foundation your make up should hold.
Makeup used-Rimmel Stay Matte
Shade-Soft Beige 200
Im really loven this foundation ive seen so many reviews and im definitely a lover of it now after using it for over a week now.
For eyes I got out my-Smoked Urban Decay pallet
Colour-Rockstar
I used this only colour to darken up my eyes for a more dramatic look just applying to the outer corners and blending and blending.
For eyeliner I used-24/7 Glide-on Eye Pencil Urban Decay
Lips I went for also a dramatic colour
Brand-Catrice
Colour-270 Matt-erial Girl
Lip liner-Catrice 060 Very Berry
So for my outfit I took off the white denims and replaced it with a skirt instead.
I wanted a stand out skater skirt effect.
So what I did was I got a skirt that was puffy and also to big for me and put it on,
Over this skirt I just put a plain flowy black skirt which fits me perfect and holds the underneath skirt up,
So when on together I get a more of a stand out skater skirt which I totally loved with shirt tucked in.
Footwear-Primark
I bought these pointed court shoes last summer in London which are totally perfect for this outfit.
I put on a chunky gold chain to add more detail.
And for my hair I just took it down gave it a little toss with my back combing brush and there you have it
Two looks
Just remember go into your wardrobe and mix and match and see the end result♡
All pictures are down below I hope ye enjoy this blog as mush as I loved blogging it.

And remember
♡If you like it wear it♡
Love
Melanie♡♥♡♥♡

Midi stlye skirt ♡♥

Hey you guys♥
Hope every one is well,
Lets get straight to it
Im just loven midi style skirts at the moment "who isnt rite".
They are all in this summer and im by far so happy I just love love them.
They are totally some thing I would wear non stop and dress um up or down.
This particular skirt is from of course river island
I work in river island so when this first came in I totally fell in love, while a few others whernt feeling this.
So my mission is to change that for them.
This skirt is gone into sale and is priced at- €14
Which is totally a bargin as it was
€40
So for me its a must in my wardrobe.
I wore this outfit today and got so many compliments on this out fit.
Personally I think this skirt can be worn wit a white crop top a shirt tucked in or tied up also into a crop shirt,
Baggie t-shirts would also be really kool with this skirt or a crop knit wear long sleeved would also go perfectly.
Shoe ideas-sandals shoes and court shoes would also be perfect if wearing this on a nite out, for a more casual look you could wear little ankle booties with or without a heel or little ballet pumps.
I went for a black ankle boot today which are one of my fav booties from -primark
You will get these type of boots in quite alot of shops or online.
For today's look I paired this midi skirt with a black crop top from-river island
Cost-€10
I added a chain from-h&m which I got in the sale
Cost-€2
For earings im wearing also-river island
Cost-€4
I went for a low pony tail and did a fish tail plat
My make up wasnt to much I didnt want a heavy look as much
I bought a new lippy yesterday
Brand-Catrice
Ultimate Shine-270-What's AP-ricot
I really like this new colour so I based my make up around this lippy cause of course I had to wear it.
You will find any of -Catrice Collection- in any Pennys
And I truly recommend trying there lipsticks.
Every thing I used on my face today is also posted down below, if interested in any of the products I used for todays look
They mostly can be found in any-Boots-Superdrug-
Other products-mac skinfinish
-urban decay
-sleek eye shadow
-sleek contour
-no7
-catrice white eye liner (which can open you eyes up abit)
-rimmel matte make up.
Also dont be afraid to top this look off with a hat if your a lover of hats which I am bowlers hats can really funky up a outfit,
Also a bigger style hat can state a fashion statement which I truly love.
I hope this can give ye all abit of inspiration into what to match with these types if skirts,
Ive my eye on a few more midi skirts in different colours which I cant wait to get my hands on.
Thanks to every one for taken time out to read my blog
And remember guys
If you like it wear it
Melanie
