BLACK & BLANC: Forever 21

, by Sana Ahmad

MISCELLANEOUS MONTHLY MUST-HAVES | October

How is it already half term? In all honesty I'm not even sure how to answer that question myself, but seriously like where did September go? Aside from us being only 2 months away until we descend in to yet another year here's my October favourites. This month has definitely been more about the clothes & the pazazz rather than the makeup, so expect more lookbooks, more wardrobe staples and a whole lot more of me this fall season. Also can I just complain about how inconsistent the weather has recently been, like I'm longing for those days where I can walk around in my detective coat wrapped warm in my blanket scarf.

+ Distressed Denim Jeans

I was an avid lover of the boyfriend jeans last year, you know just a clean cut pair of light wash denim jeans but this year I've been digging the whole ripped jeans thing too. My go-to outfit with these jeans is wearing my River Island nude shirt tucked with a pair of Forever 21 black boots.

+ Forever 21 Buckled Boots

Spending your summer endlessly searching the internet for a pair of black boots in a size 3 is more difficult than you think. After seeing these on the Forever 21 website I seized the opportunity and bought them despite the fact that I had to wait for them to be delivered from the Netherlands. These black boots go with everything and I honestly mean it, the low heel makes it ideal for everyday walking around in.

+ Blanket scarves

Kudos to whoever made this a fashion item, thank you for making it appropriate for us to go out in society wrapped in blankets larger than ourselves! This scarf is the cosiest thing ever and it doubles as a nice cushion you know for them 5 minute naps in class (I'm kidding don't ever fall asleep during classes). You can find similar ones in Zara I know they do a great deal in all sorts of patterns and prints.

+ 007 Fragrance for women

I always forget to spray myself before rushing out the door for college and so this gem has been nesting in my bag for a quick little spritz throughout the day. This is a very heavy musky sort of scent and so I always like bringing it out during the colder months it just seems more appropriate for the winter atmosphere.

+ Zara Gold rings

I always am a sucker for dainty gold jewellery or any jewellery to be frank it's always been my way of accessorising my outfit and adding a little something to it. These rings from Zara are a great addition alongside my real gold ring, they add an element of playfulness but can still look really elegant when worn right.

That's all from me for this month in terms of favourites, I can't wait to bombard you with all my planned posts for this fall season so stay put!

Birthday

What I got for my birthday

I recently turned 16 last week and I thought it would be appropriate to do a birthday haul. Now I'm one of those people who forget to take pictures of their prettily packaged gifts and go head-first in to opening their presents! But honestly speaking who doesn't? I just want to say a huge 'Thank You' to everyone who wished me and kindly gifted me something you really didn't have to.

First is this 'Dirty Works' mini luxuries set which contains four products. This adorable little box contains a bath soak, a body scrub, a body lotion and a body wash. I absolutely love the fact that all the products are travel friendly. All these products coco butter and vanilla scented which is a added bonus for me.

I could not believe my eyes when I opened up the next present and yes it was the W7 'In the Nude' eye shadow palette. I have been eyeing up this palette for the past couple of months but I could never justify buying it so I was thrilled on receiving it! I cannot wait to start using it, this has several matte and shimmery shadows.

Gold jewellery for me is always a must, whether it's layering several dainty pieces or rocking a statement necklace. This is a new addition to my existing collection of necklaces. I love how simple yet eye catching this necklace is. Now I'm one of those people who has a lot of stuff but doesn't have the basics so I was more than excited on receiving this black clutch.

Now I'm a big fan of Revlon's Charlie body spray line. I absolutely love Charlie Chic the smell of sandalwood and vanilla is oddly comforting. This set contains four minis Charlie Shimmer, Charlie Pink, Charlie Red and Charlie Bitter sweet. The great thing about compact products is that you can try all the products.

I got a a lot of jewellery this year, like a LOT! Funnily enough the majority of it was gold. I love how the turquoise diamonds compliment the gold on the necklace and arm cuff. I also got this watch which I'm in love with, however I am going to need to remove a couple of links due to my incredibly small wrists.

How adorable is this card? I enjoy painting my nails and using nail tape to create designs, but who doesn't love a clean manicure. The best thing about this set is that it comes with a base coat so it'll protect your nails. How gorgeous is this silver brooch? The silver brooch features a unique shape and is heavily embedded with diamonds.

Now I'm someone who is obsessed with Unicorns. Mythical creatures are the most elegant and magical. This is a wooden plaque with the quote 'Never let go of your dreams' painted on it.

Disclaimer: I am not trying to brag in any way. I just really wanted to share the awesome gifts I got from my lovely friends and family.
