Vapiano Manchester Review


Two years back when I visited Vapiano in London , I totally fell in love with their food. Whenever I go to London , I never leave the city without going to Vapiano at least once. So, the opening of Vapiano in  Manchester made me really excited  and I was lucky enough to be invited to the launch event.

The restaurant is located in the corn exchange food hall with lots of new restaurants near by such as Cabana , Wahaca and the cosy club. Vapiono serves amazing and delicious Italian food and they make it on the spot for you. You can personalise your meal and add pretty much whatever you like.There's a lot to choose from the menu and some of my favourite pastas are Gamberetti , Pesto rosso and Chicken Alfredo and for pizzas I usually go for Carne and Toscana.So next time you find yourself wondering or shopping in the center of Manchester, make sure you try out Vapiano . Hope you liked this post :)

The button-front A line skirt.

So I recently got this skirt and I must say I'm totally obsessed with it! I've never been a huge fan of skirts and dresses because I feel that it doesn't suit my personality but this one immediately caught my eye while shopping. I love the gold buttons detailing and the suede material of the skirt as it feels really soft and doesn't crease at all. I styled this skirt with a black fitter turtle neck sweater and my favorite ankle boots. No matter how cold it gets, you can always wear this skirt in various ways by adding few layers such as a chunky scarf or stockings to keep yourself warm and get the trendy look at the same time. Knitted sweaters with long boots is totally a great way to wear this skirt for the winter and if you're lucky enough to live somewhere where it doesn't get that cold, you can style this with a crop top or a button-up shirt.

Hope you liked this casual look :)

Welcoming autumn!

Hey Guys , autumn is finally here and I'm really excited to try some new trends and looks for this season. Since capes have been all over the fall fashion runways I was really pumped to style mine for this season. Capes are a great way to style yourself without looking too dressed up , you can literally wear them on top of anything without  putting too much effort and it also keeps you really warm and cozy, it's almost like wearing a blanket .
There are many ways you can style capes but for this day I decided to go with leather pants and ankle boots which gave some edge to the whole look and were really comfortable to wear. Capes can be worn with anything you like such as boyfriend jeans , tights , over the knee boots or pointed heels. There is endless options of what you can style yours with.
What trends are you looking forward to try this season ?

The comfort zone!

Hey guys , as most of you already know, the 90's fashion is back and so is the dungaree / overall trend. A lot of celebrities such as Taylor swift and Blake lively have been spotted wearing dungarees recently and I have been in love with this trend ever since. This staple has been introduced again in many styles , in ripped denim, printed prints and even leather which I'm still looking for.

So for this look, I got my pair of black dungarees from Topshop and I've been wearing them a lot during the past few weeks . I styled mine with a black and white stripped crop top  and combat boots. I love how dungarees can be styled in so many ways , they can be dressed up or down with boots, sneaker, flats or strappy heels, you can wear a loose fitted shirt or a crop top for more comfort. I am totally going to wear mine a lot with high neck sweaters and sneakers in the autumn and winter. This is the perfect look for anyone who likes to be comfortable but stylish at the same time.
Hope you enjoyed this look , stay tuned for more outfit posts ;)

Summer Picks!



Hey guys!
As summer just got over, I thought of sharing some of my favourite fashion and beauty products that I've been using the most throughout this summer and let you guys know what I think of them and where you can get them from.

From left to right : Bourjois rouge edition velvet lipstick 05 Ole Flamingo ! , Bourjois rouge edition velvet lipstick 07 Nude-ist and L'oreal Paris color riche in Julianne's Pure red .


Starting off with beauty, the Bourjois rouge edition velvet lipsticks are definitely the best liquid lipsticks I have come across.The application is very smooth, however it may feel a bit wet at first when you apply it but once it sets ,the finish is very matte and velvety hence the name. I would strongly recommend giving these lipsticks a try if you're into matte lipsticks especially the darker colors as the color payoff is really good. The L'Oreal Julianne's red riche lipstick is a really beautiful and odd red that has a hint of pink and orange which I really like as I am not a big fan of red lipsticks. It has a matte finish and leaves a stain when you take it off which I don't really mind.


Left to right : Bourjois CC cream in light , Bourjois Happy Light concealer in 22 Beige rose ,  collection lasting perfection concealer shade 2 and YSL creme de blush in N7 Red Agate

These are the four products I've been using throughout the summer this year, the CC cream is very liquidy but feels really light on the skin if you just apply just a tiny bit of it as a little bit goes a long way. If you need a bit more coverage the happy light concealer and collection concealer are equally good for dark circles and dark spots during summer.
The YSL blush is a coral cream blush which does not melt like any other cream blusher would do during summer which is why I've been using it a lot this summer.


Moving on to fashion, I personally do not like to wear jewelry except rings but I have been loving wearing  this H&M cuff  whenever I wanted to add an oomph to my outfits.




Garnier Micellar cleansing water  : I've been using this product for a very long time now and all I can say is that it does exactly what it says on the packaging. I would strongly recommend this if you have sensitive or normal skin. Gucci Guilty is by far my most used and favorite scent , I love the smell and the packaging. Another one of my favorite scents is Ode a l'amour which I got a very long time ago from Belgium, I don't think it's available in the UK so I just use this on special occasions as I don't want to run out of it.


Last but not the least is this beautiful clutch from Primark, I'm not a big fan of Primark bags and clutches but this one caught my eye. I've been wearing this clutch a lot on evenings with all black or all white outfits .It is also quite spacious so I managed to fit all my essentials in it.

So these were my summer picks! Hope you guys enjoyed and let me know about your summer favorites :)

Monochrome


Hello guys, Monochrome has been in trend for many years and still is as you can never go wrong with the simplicity of monochrome. Whether it’s prints, geometrical shapes or stripes,black and white is one of the easiest color combination to pull off. Fir this look , I wore a pair of black wide leg trousers and a collared white crop top which I feel compliment each other very nicely. Overall ,I was quite happy with this look, let me know what you guys think.

White & Berry!

Hey guys ,
RRecently I’ve been loving wearing the white on white look but I guess sometimes it can look too flat and boring .So I decided to throw on this berry colored cardigan to add a pop of color and make it a little more interesting . You can totally add some accessories such as a gold cuff or a statement necklace to add more life to the outfit however I personally wanted to keep this look very simple. Hope you like this look.
