THE NEW ''HAIR'' WAVE




Yesterday i took a leap and finally visited a proper hair salon , not just a lame ass local hairdressers . I'm recently back from hols and hair was in a bit of a shamble so it was time . My choice of salon was the infamous . Style Club. The outfit featured in this blog post is not from yesterday its from today but i just thought id throw it on in there. As well as getting my hair done yesterday , i also got to go to WOWBURGER. I have been wanting to go for a few weeks now & yesterday it happened. Fucking hell it was delish :) :) I reminded me of Five guys in London. Its such a cool atmosphere , as you will see from the pics . Its on the roof of the Workman's bar , so therefore all you smokers can smoke and eat !!!! 

LETS GET ON WITH THE PICS:

 ombre style hair achieved by the style club

I am sooooo happy with my hair and how quick they achieved what i wanted . It did cost 140e BUT it was money well spent. The girl spent over 3 hours on my hair which included , Semi colour brown , ombre copper , cut and treatment . Its defo worth the money . Its the type of treatment you expect when going to a hair salon. I was called down and greeted by my stylist and she sat and went tru what i wanted . She then left me to go get how much it would cost. This is really good because you then don't have that daunting walk to the till to pay.

WOWBURGER:




Now onto today's outfit . Its just a casual one folks, but from this point on i promise i be stepping up my style game . Ive been slipping alot later but no more cause i no I'm far more capable of been more creative and stylish :) :) :) I feel as i progressively get older i find myself finding myself again if you get me . I like changed especially when it comes to clothes and i like to try alot of diff things.






Bomber // Nine Crows 
Dress // Forever 21 
Hat // Forever 21
Chain // Topman 
Shoes // Cans 
Bagpack // Louis Vuitton

HAUL-AHOLIC IN NYC

As promised , here's my haul for New york . I'm the kinda person that would find the possibility of shopping just about anywhere and New york was like a Shopaholics haven. No lie. I don't comprehend when people say that Americans are so behind with their fashion. Firsty, just cause the majority choose to dress in the more basic way doesn't mean they are behind . To me they just seem to have two styles , really basic or really ''Lipsy''. When i say Lipsy i am referring to the lipsy brand of dresses that are HUGELY tacky or overly glam in a trashtastic kinda way . I 100% not against glam but defo prefer the more classic form rather than the trashy. Secondly , the stores they have are all the same as ours , mostly. They have the likes of Forever 21, Topshop, Levi's, Urban outfitters and H&M. From what i seen in the shops they are defo not behind , maybe they are just not your type of style . 
I actually find over here the shops are merchandised far better and you can actually see what they have to sell. Whereas over here everyone and there ma is walking around in the same river island dress and penneys boots, cause its ''COOL'' or ''TRENDY'' . So what I'm saying is, who are we to judge ? The only thing i did find it lacked was the quirkyness that i like when shopping. Urban Outfitters kinda hit the spot , but i did miss the vintage . I heard the vintage is AMAZING , but i obviously didn't venture far enough to find the greats. Maybe next time ........ definitely next time :) :)

THE FINAL NYC PUZZLE PIECE



So here it is guys , the last and final instalment of my trip to New York.
Well other than my haul post which I'll post later during the week :) This, like i said before was truly an amazing experience and defo a holiday i will remember forever. I would , in the future, like to visit New York again but i think maybe next year we try somewhere else or maybe hit Vegas up for the third time haha. 
On my 2nd last night i again felt ill . I'm pretty sure i got a bug. We were suppose to go on the tour bus again but as i was feeling terrible , we decided to just chill and hang around Times Square. Guys just so you know when i say we , i mean me & my amazing boyfriend who took all pics of me on this trip :) We went to Ellen's stardust diner AGAIN. Look don't be so judgey folks , we are huge musical fans haha. But in all honesty is was defo worth the 2nd visit and if i was there any longer i woulda went again . Then we took a trip down to the Levi store but on the way we found the most amazing pub but ....... IT WAS CLOSED DOWN :( The exterior was super creppy and black & just match my personality too a T so i needed pics . Then i looked back at the photos and they turned out ghostly due to my phone cover reflecting the flash . But fucking hell they are perfect :)

Heres the pics from that night :



Shirt // Nine Crows 
Hat // Forever 21
Shorts // Urban Outfitters
Shoes // Ebay

The next day was Friday, which meant last full day in New York . This made me very sad:( I headed to Times Square for a bitta last day retail therapy and decided we would hit up another Broadway show . We qued at the TKTS pop up store and got tickets to the show to out do all shows ............ LES MISERABLES :) :) :) The dream came true guys. We headed back to the hotel and had a gander around again . I headed up to the roof top terrace and decided it was time for a photo shoot haha . Les miserables was amazing , but like any show it was ruined by talkers . WTF is with ppl who pay a good bitta money to go to a show to just fucking TALK the whole way tru and ruin it for others . When it came to the 2nd act they had learnt there lesson from all the death glares they were getting from people who were actually there to see the show :)

During the day pics:




Night time pictures :





So this concludes my adventure in New York. Doing these blogs has mad me relive absolutely every minute of it and it makes me wanna go back ASAP . America is truly the dream , I use to think it was London . The more i go to America the more its becoming the ultimate dream .

Hope you guys enjoyed this blog and i should have a haul post up by the end of the week . As always if you guys have any comments or ideas for me just comment below or on my instagram ( link below )

NYC 3

NYC 3 :
As i was soo busy throughout the holiday, i cannot remember what day i done what . So as the days are all muddled together i just gonna go by what i remember i done tru the pics . When in New york i hugely recommend that you guys invest in the tour bus tickets . I got the tickets for City Sightseeing tours . These tickets only cost 49 dollars each and what u get included is : 5 bus tours , Night tour and a ferry tour . These tickets are 100% worth the money you pay . I used the tour bus to head on down to the cool, hip area that is Soho. This area is sucha cool little place , defo more my kinda vibe.
I also used the tour bus to go to Ground Zero and it was sucha weird atmosphere down there . Seriously guys, I have never felt feelings like i felt whilst at this . This was a weird , eery kinda feeling , almost like felt like i was standing amongst the dead . I also went to the empire state building later that night . OH MY !!! This was this breath taking , unreal views of the whole city once you reach the top.

Lets get away from all that gloomy shit and onto the pics :) 

Ground Zero:

Now we are onto the next morning . I ventured to Applebee's again and got the waffles . I wasn't feeling the best but Jesus waffles aren't for me unless they are made of potatoes haha. This outfit is by far the absolute worse of the whole holiday but listen girls we all have those days on holiday where u cannot be arsed . That morning i made me way to Central Park FINALLY ! Holy Christ is it big & yet i managed to bump into Frank Lampard , yet didn't wanna bother him so took a pic on the sly .
