What I Wore: River Nene

Hey! Anyone there? Okay, I know I promised to blog a lot this summer, but I've been busy. ITS TRUE! I, Arabelle akinfe had a life for once and wasn't just starting a new program on Netflix. I've been trying to keep busy and focus on the good things to distract me from all the bad things going on at the moment. Like how my mother keeps getting all emotional about her 'little baby bird flying away from our nest '. Those were literally her actually words! Ashleigh's going to University so my mums pretty happy, yet sad. It's confusing! Luckily, my mums so busy with getting Ashleigh all her stuff so I've been able to get away and actually LIVE! It's pretty awesome! So that's why I was unable to blog. I was enjoying this short period of time we call life. Here's an outfit post I wore when I went on a boat trip to the River Nene.  Top: New Look Skirt: New Look Socks: Primark  Shoes: TK Maxx  Cup of coffee I drank on the boat. The beautiful water  Ot...

Sleek eyeliner review

Hello readers! How are y'all? I literally had the best day ever yesterday, watching chick flicks in my underwear while binging on food- what gets better than that! I know I'm no beauty blogger but wanted to start doing new things. Today I wanted to review my favourite liquid eyeliner, the Sleek MakeUP DIP-IT eyeliner.  As you can see from the photo above, the bottle is quite small, yet I've had it for like 6 mouths so far and it hasn't ran out. Sleek is one of my favourite brands. I love there eyeshadow palettes and the eyebrow things. The eyeliner lasts a really long time and the price is really good. It doesn't take a long time for it to dry and it never crumbles off.  My attempt at doing winged eyeliner I feel like with this eyeliner you can achieve one of those really on fleek Tumblr eyeliners because of how lovely the dip it brush is.  To sum up, this eyeliner did not irritate my eyelids and I would definitely repurchase and recommend you ...

What I Wore

2015 Summer Wish List

I'm not very sure how to start this post. I feel like I just woke up from a really deep sleep, which I did. (Bare in mind that 's 1pm) I really felt like it was summer yesterday due to how extremely hot it was when I went to buy milk from the corner shop. #convenient! Back to the point. Here's one of my wish list post I used to do. Enjoy! :) Urban Outfitters- BDG Corduroy Pinafore Dress- £46 In my opinion pinafore dresses are the cutest dresses ever. They're the Means Girls of dresses around the world and all the other dresses wish they were them. This one looks really cute and 60s mod which I looooove about them. Well, that and the colour of the dress.  American Apparel- Nathalie Du Pasquier Kaya Tomato Print Rayon Tent Dress- £75 Cute! Cute! CUTE! That is the only word that comes to my mind when I see this dress. The clothes in American Apparel look so beautiful, but as I was scrolling down AA's website this dress just caught my eye. Really eye ca...

ootd's and sabrina carpenter

I have like fifteen drafts open because I can't figure out what to write about. I'm just gonna go with the flow and see where it take me.  I've come to an conclusion that I, Arabelle Akinfe, am going to start posting Outfits Of The Day's on this blog. Think about, I'm not much of a fashion blogger if I don't even post any photos of what I wear. It's only fair. Note that I took the photo myself by taking in the mirror. I don't have anyone to take photos of my outfits, which is the reason for not doing it before.  07/08/15 Once I get a tripod and camera I'll start taking profession photos. For now it's just these mirror photos. I'm wearing a white pattern shirt from Next and the Lulu grid skirt from American Apparel. For shoes I wore my all white Adidas Superstars  with high knee black socks.  08/08/15 This is the outfit I wore on Saturday when I went to my grandma's house and the library. Here I'm wearing a logo ...

What We Have Here Is A Dreamer

From The Virgin Suicides movie Ugh, I feel like I haven't blogged in ages. Maybe because I haven't. What's it been? 9...10 days. Who knows? Before you start yelling at me, I have a reason. I've been obsessing (like always.) Seems like that what most of my summer has been so far. That and all my bitching and moaning. In other words, I've been being a normal teenager. YAY! Which is the reason I decided not the blog. I would of ended up doing a mega long blog rant about something nobody cares about. Luckily, I feel way better and I'm really to share with you some of my latest obsessions ;) keep reading <3 I recently read an article Tavi Gevinson (only the most inspirational person ever) did for The WW Club. It's pretty cool how reading how similar you can be to someone completely different than yourself. It just really goes to show happens to people very differently but the same. We're all faced with challenges, life gets weird and it gets awesome...
