I love my job, it's in the career I want and it's fun. But not being allowed to have my nails painted is such a pain. But a few loopholes, <i>what you can't see doesn't count</i>, and viola! I thought I used to have a white polish for French Manicure tips, but not being able to find it led to using the pale pink, Fiji dupe, Easy Going shade by Sinful Colours. And I actually much prefer this. Although it's a bit messy, not bad for 11pm while on the phone may I add, it'll do for work. Naked nails are just ugly.<br>

Fourth wave
feminism is well and truly in swing. Social media and How to Be a Woman brought
the f word to the masses, which can only be a good thing, but it has to have
its limitations.When it
comes to the fashion industry, fashion magazines in particular, feminism just
doesn't fit. Vogue teaches us impossible consumerism aspirations, Glamour
teaches us impossible beauty standards, Reveal teaches us to weight shame other
women, teaching us the main purpose of a women is her looks and her possessions.
So, how does feminism fit into the fashion industry? It doesn't, and Stylist
proves it. Issue 207, the self proclaimed ‘feminism’ issue, appears false and contradictory. This isn't just a criticism, the issue makes a few good points, accessible to those who may otherwise not be interested, but for every step forward there's two steps back. For every mention of Germaine Greer, there's two pictures of photoshopped models scantily clad, pouting. For every criticism of the pay gap, there's an advert saying you <i>need </i>this lipstick to be attractive.Lucy Fosters article is elegant, to the point, and pretty much accurate, yet is this the right place to publish it? Girls will never rule the world when feminism is put next to a sexualized perfume advertisement. That's not what feminism is, what it never will be, and what it should never be.<br />

As I mentioned in my <a href="http://underestimatethegirl.blogspot.co.uk/2013/12/im-ready-for-you-2014.html">'I'm ready for you, 2014' post</a>, I'm going interrailing in June and I couldn't be more excited if I tried. I've never really understood the point of the 'buy a holiday wardrobe' thing, surely you can just wear what you have already and spend your money actually on the holiday? But I guess interrailing is a completely different thing, so I'll need some essentials. As much as I'd love to take every outfit I own with me, I turn into the crankiest person alive when I carry too much. Achy shoulders are not my friend. Luckily, I'm borrowing my aunties travel backpack, so I should be able to carry quite a lot without the weight, but I still want to take the bare minimum I can get away with. To do this, I'm on the hunt for the perfect pair of denim shorts, that I can wear constantly and that will go with anything. A day of Northern Quarter Levis hunting is on the cards. In terms of products, I'm planning on, again, taking as little as I can. Muji decanter pots will be my savior, only taking as much as I need, rather than huge tubs of shampoo will save valuable space and weight. I'm only really planning on taking loads of SPF, toner to keep oil at bay, and maybe an eyeliner for nights out. With that said, not wearing much make up poses the massively first world problems of not looking great on the photos. Cue sunglasses. I'm definitely getting some Clubmasters, not real ones of course (although I'd love some for my 21st, we'll see!) and I think i'll get a few other pairs. I lose everything! The one down side to travelling, is the actual travelling part. My kindle, maybe a few <i>real </i>books, bought as I go along, and a little Moleskine travel journal/book to doodle in might keep me sane on the 7 hour train journeys. I can't wait for more spring/summer collections to come in so I can start doing some real outfit planning/bikini hunting!<br />

As I said in my last blog post, I have a <i>lot </i>of nail varnishes, an amount most would call extreme, an amount most bloggers would call average. To prove my point, I have 9 different shades of blue and green (one being purple makes me a bit sad.) So, here's a photo. Boring post. Sorry not sorry.<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">University gets so hectic in third year. If I could go back to my 18 year old self, I'd say enjoy first and second year while it lasts, it gets very busy very quickly. I remember when I used to spend so much time painting polka dots, flowers and paisley on my nails, but I've got so lazy now deadlines take priority. For lazy nails, there's one thing I love, accents. It's such an easy way to make your nails look <i>done, </i>without actually having to <i>do </i>that much! The past few birthdays and Christmas', I've asked for nail polishes. As much as I love 'out there' shades like this Models Own silver, they can be a bit much on all ten fingers and thumbs, but I don't want to leave them unloved on the shelf. Since I've started using accent nails more, I've been able to give my unloved shades a wear, toning them down with my usual colours. With that said, maybe I should put down the Fiji every day and start using the bright greens more? Can anyone tell my nail varnishes are my babies? They should be, most my first and second year loans went to buying them. Oops!</span><br />

<br />
My 'new years resolution' (but not really, just a promise I happened to make in January) was to live more and be scared less, and this is the first time I really tried it out. One of my favourite places to be is in the crowd of a gig, something about seeing a song you listen to all the time actually being sung in front of you is pretty special. Maybe I'm just a fully fledged fangirl. There's been so many gigs I've been dying to go to, but not found anyone to go with and just been to scared to go alone. Bat for Lashes at Manchester Cathedral and Haim at Deaf Institute to name but a few. But, why was I too scared to go alone? I'm really happy in my own company, I work in coffee shops and go shopping alone and don't mind, so what's the difference? This gig confirmed, there is no difference at all. There was the odd awkward squirm where I obsessed over the thought <i>what if the people here think I'm a loser on my own, </i>but the real 'loser' thing to do would to be too afraid to do what I want to do, based on what others think. It was definitely worth getting over my fear for, the gig was amazing. As well as the sense of achievement, I also had a good night, danced, and met Scroobious Pip. I hate to quote a cliche saying, but <i>do something each day that scares you, </i>well and truly paid off. I'm now racking my brain to think of what else scares me, just so I can go and do it.

My two great loves: museums and fashion. If there were puppies there, it'd be my heaven. I visited the <a href="http://www.manchestergalleries.org/our-other-venues/platt-hall-gallery-of-costume/">Gallery of Costume in Manchester</a> to see the temporary Dior exhibition. It felt a big wrong to be wearing an outfit mostly comprised of charity shop buys, borrowed clothes and ebay finds in the presence of such brands. Vivienne, I love you, one day you will be mine! Seeing the sketches was so fascinating, I sometimes forget that clothes were once just an idea in a sketchbook. I really want to get back into photographing where I go again, it's so east just to put a photo on instagram without really thinking about it, but actually taking my camera out and using it made a nice change. I did get a D in AS photography after all, might as well use my (lack of) knowledge! I also really need to get back into visiting different places again. I'm going to go to the new <a href="http://www.cornerhouse.org/art/art-exhibitions/jamie-shovlin-hiker-meat">Hiker Meat exhibition at the Cornerhouse</a> soon, again, my two loves of museums and scary films, ideal.<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">A perfect pamper indulgence can be necessary sometimes. And this was *cough* my New Year's Eve night *cough*<br />To others, a twenty year old, spending the last night of the year in the hottest, bubbliest bath and considering it a choice well made may be a tad, pathetic? But I'm glad I did, I unleashed my inner Miranda Hart, embraced my lonewolf status and thought of nothing but myself, all night.<br />Waking up for the first day of 2014 refreshed, with glowing skin and a new hair colour seemed a far better alternative to a regretted hangover and upset bank account.<br />I'm planning reviews on the Origins Mask and La Roche Posay Effeclar Duo after a few more uses, I can't yet make up my mind. But as a review of Alexa Chungs book: buy it, right now. (Same applies for the Toblerone) </span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I’ve tried. I really have. But I just can’t like Lorde, and
I have no idea why. It’s the same as a person who loves chocolate having an odd
aversion to Dairy Milk. If you looked at the ‘related artists’, those similar
to her, I’d love them all. Lana, Boy, Florence, Marina, Bat For Lashes, Foxes,
Dillon, MS MR, London Grammar, Eliza, Haim; you name it, I like it. So why do I
dislike Lorde?</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Maybe it’s because she’s nothing new, maybe it’s because there’s
no room in the inn for another Topshop-princess-a-rock star-too, or maybe I’m
just jealous of her Merida hair and insane talent for liquid eyeliner. Whatever
it is, maybe times are changing on the genre of my iTunes, and maybe that’s not
a bad thing. </span></div>

It’s the morning after Boxing Day, it’s 12:32am, I have to

This blog post has been on my mind for a while now, and I
was going to save it for a hungover New Years day task; but sometimes there are
just those nights you stop up reflecting. There’s something about typing out
all your thoughts to store them away on a screen rather than in your mind. </div>

I couldn’t be more excited for this year to be over, which
sounds so pessimistic, but it’s been a strange mixture of the very worst year
of my life with a few truly amazing bits thrown in for good measure. So many
pity parties led me to forget to be proud that I have a job in my dream career
before I’ve even hit 21 years old, which is the stupidest thing I’ve ever done.
Only my best friends will know what I mean, in the way that it’s meant to
be, I’d never dream of posting it online, which leads on to my next point. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Recently, I’ve been thinking about the honesty of social
media. On Christmas morning I was scrolling through Instagram and Bloglovin’
(while sipping wine at the same time as eating Pringles, of course.) While
scrolling, I became so envious of the perfect family photos, expensive present ‘hauls’
and spoiling boyfriends. It took me an entire day of sulking that my family isn’t
perfect, I didn’t get a Macbook and my relationship ended this year, to realise
that Instagram is just the world through rose tinted filters.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In the generation of selfies,
blogs, tweets and status’ we become more concerned with how we appear to
others, rather than the real enjoyment. Surely thanking your family and friends
with real words from your actual mouth is more enjoyable than posting a Facebook
photo with the cringe worthy caption of “Santa’s been, must have been good this
year.” You’re 21, grow up. </div>

I never normally make New Years resolutions, they are normally
just a half hearted promise to exercise more, but this year I’m making one that
I’m keeping. I’m officially promising to actually live, rather than just
tweeting about living. I wish I could make a resolution to not compare myself
to others, but I think that that’s so ingrained in myself, and society, that
just a change from 2013 to 2014 isn’t going to change that. I’m working on it. More
than anything, my New Years resolution is to be happy and honest with myself,
which will be so easy once I try as I have so much to be happy for. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
2014 is going to bring living with the two best friends in
the entire world, working in an career I
love, being truly happy to be alone, moving to the city centre, seeing Beyonce
and Professor Green live, writing a dissertation on something that inspires and
fascinates me, travelling, graduating and who knows what else yet. It is most
definitely time to stop comparing my life to the #instalife of others and
remember how fucking amazing that is.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
p.s, I’ve found, and love, a playlist on Spotify called “Indie/Hipster
Playlist” and can’t fully cope with how hilarious that fact is. </div>

I'm back! I needed a much needed break from blogging, I can't say I missed it, but I do really enjoy it so I'm going to start again. <div>
The title of this post is a bit of a lie. I rarely wear everything everyday, it depends on what I'm doing or how done up I want to look. This is what I wear if I want to have a proper face on! In this post is three of my favourite favourite products, although I love them all. As a base, I stick to Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection concealer (like everyone else ever) set with Rimmell Stay Matte powder. I've never wore foundation, I just vary the amount of Lasting Perfection I use depending on how bad my skin is. I'm thinking about investing in some Real Techniques brushes, but for now I blend concealer with my fingers and brush on powder with a cheap Kabuki brush from H&M. For my eyes, I use a bit of the brow cream on my brows (obviously) from the Benefit set, and a brush of a nude shade from the MUA palette. I've tried a fair few liquid eyeliners, but the Natural Collections one is without a doubt the best I've ever used, I couldn't recommend it enough. I don't want to make this post too wordy, so I'll leave it as that. If you'd like to know anything else just leave a comment below! </div>

Blog, meet <a href="http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33057&storeId=12556&productId=1928619&langId=-1&categoryId=&parent_category_rn=&searchTerm=hazard&resultCount=1">Hazard</a>. I was very naughty on the 20% off student day and went a bit wild, when I was only meant to be "buying my winter coat and browsing." I'll blog about my other purchases at some point but I am most excited by my gorgeous Topshop lipstick. I've wanted one for a while, I'm a sucker for packaging, but when a Topshop make up artist helped me find the shade I wanted I just couldn't say no. Any make up artist who can know what I mean when I asked for "dirty red" is clearly quite talented! Clearly I know nothing about describing make up so shouldn't really blog at all, but apparently "dirty red" was description enough. My go-to red has been the <a href="http://underestimatethegirl.blogspot.co.uk/2013/08/red-sunrise.html">Bourjouis Colour Boost in Red Sunrise</a> as it's so moisturising and easy to apply but as Hazard is a much deeper red I think it's less of a statement and suits my hair more! Unlike Red Sunrise, it's super pigmented so you have to be really careful when applying to not go overboard, but it sets surprisingly matte which I love. The one thing I can't stand about make up is being able to feel it on your skin, or lips, but when you only apply a little amount it is really light, so pretty much the perfect formula for me! I'm that in love with it I've dented a whole in it looking at myself while pushing the lid onto it (idiot) but hopefully I'll use it so much it'll smooth out soon. I'm now on the hunt for another Topshop shade, what have I started?! P.S, if anyone's missed me, which I doubt, I've been crazy busy starting back at uni but I'm going to get back into a blogging routine soon.<br />

It's my firm belief that some days you just <i>need</i> to be fabulous. Today is one of those days. I spent most of the day waiting for the decorator doing dissertation work, yawn, so when I left the house I wanted to get as dressed up as I could get away with. I unleashed my inner Carrie and threw on my old pearls (how cool does she look in the film when she wore a fur coat, PJs and pearls, <i>swoons.</i>) Even though I only popped to the library, Lush and Boots, it certainly perked up an otherwise dull rainy Friday. I also put on my Rimmel Kate Moss lipstick in shade 19 and completely forgot how much I love it, perfect day colour! </div>

Continuing from my post about shopping the stash, (which now is my favourite thing ever, may I add) I bring you these unloved poor boots. As weird as it may seem to remember exactly when I bought them, it was August 2011, and they've still not been worn until today. I adored them when I bought them, then my cousin told me they looked like big man boots, which put me off. But, hey, if I like big man boots, I'll wear big man boots. And here they are! This is the first time in a long time I've worn an outfit that is entirely Primark, but I like it. Also, I only took two photos of this outfit, and didn't realise I had a stupid facial expression until after I'd changed out of it. Ain't nobody got time for that.<br />

I really wanted this product to work, but it didn't. I adored the <a href="http://www.tresemme.co.uk/Products/Platinum-Strength/Platinum-Strength-Concentrated-Rinse-off-Treatment/">60 second shot</a> and was hoping for a similar result on a cheaper cost-per-use size*. I didn't hate it, it wasn't awful, but it just wasn't enough. At best, I'd call it a average conditioner, no where near the quality of a mask. With that said, if it was only promising to be a decent conditioner I wouldn't mind. Yet, when a product make such huge claims as to reverse 2 years of damage, you come to expect a lot. Maybe my 2 years of damage is more than others, it's been a busy 2 years of hair damaging clearly!<br />

*In fairness, I didn't pay for this product, it was reduced in Asda so was cheekily chucked in my nans trolly. (Does this count as my first disclosure?

After discovering I had two big Ikea bags full of clothes I don't want, yes two, I was left with a lot of guilt. Guilt especially when I realised I'd had a skirt I'd bought from Berlin last August and still not got around to tailoring to fit me. It was from a sweet little second hand shop type place and although I knew it'd be far too big for me I loved the print and length so couldn't leave it. After a quick sew, seriously it took me about 10 minutes and I've been putting it off for over a year, I now love my 'new' skirt. Because it's quite a statement peice for me, I put it with a black tshirt and tan brogues so it wasn't 'too much.' With that said, I think it's always best to wear clothes that aren't your usual style when you're in a comfortable position. What you might feel great in to go for a cup of tea with a friend, might feel awful on a first date. On a completely different topic, I bowed down to peer pressure and bought The Fault in Our Stars. I can't decide if I like it yet, it's very teen angst, but I guess it's well written teen angst.<br />

When I first got into reading blogs almost two years ago now, (where has that time gone?) I first started reading Lily's from <a href="http://www.llymlrs.com/">LLYMLRS</a>. I much prefer reading fashion blogs than beauty, as I'd much rather spend my money on clothes than make up. I realised today that that means I've loved Lily's signature polish duo of Models Own Utopia and Models Own Ibiza Mix for two years. I think Utopia was the first Models Own polish I bought, and I now have about 30. The first step in recovery is admitting you have a problem! In a way, I probably regret starting reading blogs because that is a lot of dollar! I went off wearing glitter polish for quite a while, just because of how much of a nightmare it is to get off, but I still love Ibiza Mix and as stupid as it sounds, I feel myself when I wear it.<br />

If you were to ever sniff me, (<i>I don't know why you would, please don't) </i>I would smell like the Body Shop Pink Grapefruit scent. I don't really believe in buying expensive perfumes just because some "celebrity" has stuck their face on it, so I usually purchase perfumes from Next. At the end of the day, you're spending £40+ on smelly water that you could instead spend on more important things, like clothes. Anyway, ramble over. I love Pink Grapefruit as a fruit so much, and Body Shop have managed to pin down the scent perfectly without any alcohol or general chemicaly undertones. I don't need to write how amazing the body butters are, everyone already knows that, but this one most definitely is.<br />

I’m not normally one for a red lip, past attempts have been
slightly short of a disaster. One example is when I had <i>very </i>dark hair and <i>very </i>bright
flash and I ended up looking like a vampire transvestite. As much as I am
avoiding that ever happening again, except maybe a Canal Street Halloween event,
I’ve managed to find a red lip product that I love. The Bourjouis Colour (I
know it’s Color, but I can’t bring myself to spell it like that) Boost lip
crayons are a relatively new release that have been really popular with bloggers.
After seeing <a href="http://www.etcllymlrs.com/2013/07/bourjois-color-boost-review-swatch-photo.html">Lily Melrose suit the Red Sunrise shade</a> and my hair colour being
similar, (ish, not similar enough) I thought I’d give it a whirl. I find them
to be really moisturising and comfortable on the lips, although still not too
glossy. I wouldn’t say the colour lasts for the promised 10 hours, yet they are
surprisingly pigmented and do stick around for quite a while. I would recommend
them to anyone as an easy pop of colour. I’m really hoping they bring out some
more shades.</div>

I love a good Leibster Award between bloggers, it's a fun way to get to know other bloggers and find new ones with under 200 followers. I was nominated by Shan over at <a href="http://shanmurray.blogspot.co.uk/">shanmurray.blogspot.co.uk</a> and loved answering her questions! I really struggled to think up 11 others to pass along to other people, it took me quite a while but I enjoyed doing it. It's given me something to do while I'm stuck in my sick bed anyway!<br />
I would like to nominate Annie from <a href="http://appletoothpaste.blogspot.co.uk/">Apple Toothpaste</a>, she's got just over 200 followers (I'm such a rebel), but she's lovely and I love her photography. Also Leah from <a href="http://rollerbladesandvintage.blogspot.co.uk/">Rollerblades and Vintage</a>, her outfit posts are so sweetly taken! Chloe at <a href="http://bonjour-perfection.blogspot.co.uk/">Bonjour Perfection</a> lost her old blog and had to start again so I'd like to nominate her new one! Also Kate from <a href="http://katedruryy.blogspot.co.uk/">Down The Rabbit Hole</a>, I can't believe she has so few followers. As bad as it sounds, I was really hoping Elise from <a href="http://www.elisedopson.com/">elisedopson.com</a> would have under 200 followers, as I adore her blog and really wanted to nominate her! I'd also like to nominate Jessica at <a href="http://www.hifreckles.com/">hifreckles</a> because she has the cutest dress sense and I love seeing her outfit posts. I would definitely like to include Hayley at <a href="http://makeupmusicfashion.blogspot.co.uk/">makeupmusicfashion</a> because it was her blog that reminded me that if I want to post about music, I can, so what if blogs are normally about make up! I'm going to leave it there, I didn't want to just find random links to sites, I wanted to include small blogs that I actually really like. My answers from Shan and my questions can be found <a href="http://underestimatethegirl.blogspot.co.uk/p/the-leibster-award.html">here</a>. (I didn't want this post to be too long winded!)<br />
Comment your link if you've completed my questions, I'd love to read them!<br />

Here is where I blog, read Game of Thrones, drink tea and avoid my dissertation. I love having a little place I can sit that isn't my bedroom! I really do love my new little house, it's such a princess castle and the next uni year is going to be so fun here. I don't have much more to say about it, pretty self explanatory!<br>

Being in bed ill with rain outside has got me wanting knitwear and all things cosy. I'm even starting to think about my Christmas list, I'm looking at you Naked Palette. This is <a href="http://www.topshop.com/en/tsuk/product/clothing-427/jackets-coats-445/fur-trim-borg-lined-short-parka-2128169?bi=1&ps=20"><i>the</i> winter coat</a> I think I might get, after seeing it in Trafford centre and falling in love with the lining. Although a winter coat is such an investment so I need more time to think about it! At £78 it isn't too bad at all, especially with student discount on top, but it's hard to imagine if it will go with all of my clothes. After last year of falling out of love with my coat and freezing to death in my leather jacket instead, these things are some serious business! As much as I love summer and hate being cold, I adore winter clothes and can't wait to pick some up.<br />

A combination of lots of shifts at work, my skin becoming awful, and not having a clue what the weather will do from hour to hour, my outfits have become pretty dull and safe. This dress in particular is really easy to throw on and be ready to go. Ever since it went into the sale for £20, I've seen so so many people wearing it, but it isn't crazily short on anyone a normal height, unlike myself! As bad as it is to say, I'm looking forward to being able to wear this with Primark cosy tights and some chunky boots, sorry summer. </div>

I am most definitely one of <i>those </i>people who take photos of their food, sorry not sorry. When it looks this good though, how could you not? Byron Burger opened a Manchester branch in June, much to mine and my top chummy Kaitlin's delight. I'm not going to pretend to be a food critic, this isn't even really a review, I just wanted to post the photos and say it was gooooood.<br />
