Balmain X H&M Collaboration

Hey guys! So as you may all know if you keep up with the fashion world, is that Balmain and H&M have recently showcased their newest collaboration and I think its amazing! Balmain always showcases amazing pieces, super sexy and feminine silhouettes, to suit all different woman, and always so glamorous. And H&M being a firm favourite on the high street, a good collab right? I've picked out some of my favourite pieces from the collection, that all show off that femininity and glamour, and all worn on the catwalks by some of my favourite models, including, Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid and Karlie Kloss. I hope you enjoy the looks and let me know what you think. Also don't miss out on my new YouTube video, "A Collective Haul" click HERE to watch! 

Model's Off Duty | Street Or Chic

Model's Off Duty - Bella Hadid

Hey guys! Hope your all well, I am back with another Model's Off Duty post, hope you liked the last one with Taylor Hill, this time I'm looking at Bella Hadid. Bella is the sister of big time model Gigi Hadid who is just as stylish. Bella is just into as much modelling as her sister Gigi, but she is the brunette, and a little more rock chick, i'd say. Bella likes to switch up her outfits, jeans or leather trousers for the casual and something a little more sheer and sexy for the evening, which is how it should be right? A little sass never hurt nobody.

Model's Off Duty - Taylor Marie Hill

Hey guys, so if you follow me over on Instagram (@streetorchic), you may have see me post a few photos of the beautiful Taylor Hill, I know she's been around, on the catwalk for Victoria Secret and various fashion week shows, but I've never actually looked into her personal style, but since I've decided to do this little "Model's Off Duty" segment, I think she's perfect, because I love her laid back, but super chic and stylish street style. I even went and recently brought a pair of leather  look/wet look trousers, so I could try and pull off some of her looks. I think she always looks so effortlessly chic, which is sort of a model's trait, I feel like every model I see, they look like they haven't put much time into their outfit, but they look incredible! As I said before I've started this little segment and I'll be posting about different model's street style, including my favourites such as Gigi Hadid, Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner, so make sure you come back for more. 

Kylie Jenner Style Inspiration | Street Or Chic

Kylie Jenner Style Inspiration

Hey guys! Kylie Jenner is a major fashion A+ (which is what I kind of made up, but it means, she rocks, everything she basically wears). Although her everyday street style may be a little over the top for me to wear on an everyday basis, because walking around Camden Town everyday like this may have people looking at me weirdly, but I defineitly take inspiration for night time looks. Kylie's style has evolved so much since a few years back when she was a lot more relaxed in what she wears, now she's a little Kim, she even takes a huge inspiration from Kim's previous looks, and she might even wear them better, sorry Kim. In this post, I've picked out some of my favourite street style looks of the baby Kardashian/Jenner, and matched them up with some pieces on the high street, so we don't have to be millionaires to rock the same look. Enjoy!

Magnitone Review | Street Or Chic

Magnitone London Review 

Hello Everyone! I hope you are all well, this has been a long awaited post and it's finally here, I was gifted this Magnitone Sonic Face Brush when I attended the Blogger's London Fashion Week hosted by Bloggers Hangout, a few months ago now. I didn't want to do a review straight away on this because I had to see how it worked and what benefits or bad points there are for this. But now that I have fully tested it out, it's a great time to talk about it. 

Magnitone was founded in 2013 and is now stocked in some great stores, which is great because it means it's easier for you to get your hands on one. They come in different packages and colours, pink obviously being my favourite, super girly. Whether you want to exfoliate or have silky soft skin, there are different replacement brushes for you to choose from. There are many different branded Sonic Face Brushes out on the market, ranging from all different prices, from £20 all the way up to £150, however the Magnitone comes in at £70, which your probably thinking well that's quite pricey, but from my experience of using the brush, I think it's the perfect price because I can tell it's going to last a long time!

One of my favourite aspects of the Magnitone Sonic Face Brush, is the built in timer. Press the button once and you have a sixty second timer. Every twenty seconds your hear a beep to move on to a different part of your face. So I start with twenty seconds on my forehead, then twenty seconds on my cheeks and then the remaining twenty seconds on my nose and chin. Sounds amazing already doesn't it?

I've never ever used any type of facial cleansing brush on my skin before, I barely even had a skin routine, but since having this, it's my number one priority and it's super fun to use. I guess I was a little scared with the vibration but it's feels relaxing after a while. What I love about this brush and the company in particular is that they don't force anything upon you, so I've enquired about other similar brushes in Selfridges etc, and they always expect you to use the same branded facial wash and cleansers. However with Magnitone you can use which ever cleanser you choose to, I like to switch mine up once in a while. 

So a little background information on my skin, I have combination skin, so dry forehead, but oily nose and chin, this does tend to change depending on the season, and as I said previously I had a really poor skin care routine, I just used to splash my face with water and that was it but on days where I prefer to wear a little more makeup then usual, this is bad because it means your not entirely getting all the makeup off, and I only use a makeup remover wipe, and lets be honest there not the best. So when I started using the Magnitone my skin felt a lot cleaner and less clogged up pores. I also definitely saw a change in my skin, my blemishes were fading and definitely didn't get them as often. 

I hope you liked this review and may possibly want to try it out for you self because it's definitely worth it! To check out the Magnitone London Website click HERE.

Season Trend - Lace Up Tops | Street Or Chic

Season Trend - Lace Up Tops

Hey guys! Hope your all doing wonderfully well, and thank you for coming to the blog today, I thought I'd talk about one of my favourite trends of the moment, which seem to be everywhere! And that is the lace up top. It's sexy, feminine and super stylish worn in the right way. It isn't going to be everyones favourite look and is definitely not my mums favourite, that is why I won't be wearing one for as long as she see's me walking out the door. But I can always admire other ladies street style. I also think with the bigger boob area they can start to look a little tacky, depending on how they are worn, because it's quite obvious, you have to go bra less! 

The lace up top comes in so many different, colours, styles, designs possible. Some of them (or most of them) are very fitted and then others are loose and floaty, and some have crazy patterns, to suit every women! I saw a lovely cream floaty one in Primark recently for £10 and if they had online then I'd definitely show you but unfortunately they don't so if you live near a Primark or can get to one, go take a look!

Below I have picked out a couple of lace up tops I've seen to catch my eye on the web and there links just in case you want to take a further look your self (this isn't sponsored by any of the following brands, I just generally really like these ha!) Also just to let you know Boohoo have a brilliant offer of 20% of their Day & Night range, all you have to do is enter the code 'GETREADY' at checkout, and there you have yourself a bargain! Ends Midnight! Enjoy shopping!

Chi Chi London - Autumn Picks

Hello Everyone! So I am a sucker for online stores, I used to be someone who would never look at them because I'd much rather go to the shops and have a real feel for the clothes but online clothing stores have become a lot more consistent and kind of, do the better clothes if I'm totally honest and a lot more affordable too, so I love to have a good browse of the web from time to time. I recently become aware of a really cool online fashion store named Chi Chi London , the name is linked if you decide you want to take a look. It's a great store because it's super simple they don't stock a huge amount stocked, but they have really nice statement pieces. & what's great is they cater for different sizes so they have the petite range and also the plus size range which is always to most important. As it is now Autumn, and I haven't really done any type of Autumn related posts, I thought why not pick out my favourite pieces from the Chi Chi London site so you guys can get a feel for it and you might even want to get a piece your self, and possibly in the future I might even style a look book for you all.

Fur Coat HERE

Shoes HERE

So I've put together this little outfit here which is made up of some of my favourite pieces from the Chi Chi London Online Store, it's also most definitely suited for Autumn/Winter. I've picked out these light washed, ripped, mom jeans because although I always personally wear black jeans these are great to brighten an outfit, especially when everyone else is looking a little drab and also because of the grey shaded top i've picked I thought it would be great to use something a little lighter in the outfit. Now I love this top I think it's beautiful, it's very Bora Aksu from London Fashion Week, this crotchet, platted design is very on trend and looks great with just a pair of jeans. Obviously because it's an outfit for the cold we've to have a coat right? We do not want frost bite. Now I am loving fur coats, I haven't got one myself yet but after seeing this one I think I definitely know where I'm going to be buying one, and it's only £37.99!! Then for the shoes we've gone for something a little more on the dressy side but can still be worn down, these wonderful black netted, peep toe booties, I think they are gorgeous and the heel isn't too big that there un walkable. I hope you loved this outfit guys and tell me what you think, in the comment box below.

Current Wishlist

So I haven't done one of these posts in a while because for some reason I've been on a spending spree so I'v been buying everything, which means I'm now left with zero money, I know depressing. But now theres no money it means theres a wish list, and I've found some nice bits, that I think you'll like. It's officially autumn which means winter is very soon, so I've picked out these few bits which I feel are very suited for the more wintery months, including this amazing dark grey fur jacket from ASOS, how amazing!

Milan Fashion Week | Street Or Chic

Fay

I love that the khaki green tones will be around for spring summer next year and that again it's layered with a dress underneath similar to Peter Pilotto at London Fashion Week. Also belts around the waist seem to be quite hot this season on the catwalks which is perfect for an hourglass figure. 

Versace

Khaki and camel tones used by Versace and the belt around the waist on trend again. But also some wacky coloured patterns used with this co-ord.

Dolce & Gabbana 

Dolce & Gabbana was my favourite designer last season at Milan Fashion Week and again I loved the collection, it's silhouettes are very girly and feminine and I love that this season throughout all fashion weeks the midi length skirt/dress is on trend, I think it's such a flattering length. If your not someone who particularly likes to show their legs off with a mini then midi's are great. 

Vivetta 

I hadn't heard of this designer before but what really stood out to me was the bold use of colour and pattern, quite a few of the MFW designer's have designed suttle collection pieces with not much vibrancy, but I loved that there was a difference in this collection. 

Fendi 

So as much as I love the midi length, the right mini can catch my attention and I love these pieces. It's monochrome which I'm guessing it definitely on trend for next season, but I love these cut out dresses, and I think they are perfect to be styled casually in the day and also dressed up with a pair of sandal heels in the evening.
