Celebrity Style: Chloe Grace Mortez


Today I thought I would bring back my Celebrity Style posts. I used to really enjoy doing these so I thought I would start doing them again. For those of you unfamiliar with these posts, each week I will pick a celebrity (I also take requests) and find a picture of an outfit that I like and would want to recreate. I then search the website and find similar pieces to the original outfit. I try to pick out items that are affordable so for the most part all the items I share with you will be below £50. If you have any requests for celebrities then you can either leave them in the comments or email me at prettylittlefashionista@hotmail.com  



I really like Chloe Grace Mortez, I thought she was brilliant in Kick Ass. I also really like her style in the past couple of years she has become more and more of a style icon. I found this outfit here  which I really like as it is simple and I think it could be worn by pretty much anyone. Also I am a massive fan of stripes I'd say 70% of my wardrobe is stripes because I am obsessed with them. 


Outfit Total: £72 

I hope you guys enjoyed this post.

Small Haul February 2014

Today I thought I would share with you a few bits and pieces that I have picked up recently.
I picked up some Batiste Dry Shampoo in the Tropical scent. I previously had the Blush scent which I hated but I really wanted to give dry shampoo another go as it can be really useful for refreshing your hair. I also picked up the Aussie Miracle Hair Insurance I love this leave in conditioner it smells amazing and leaves my hair feeling really soft. 

I had already tried and loved this Dove conditioner so I thought I would get another bottle and as it was buy one get one free I decided to pick up the shampoo. They smell amazing and leave my hair feeling so soft. 

I then picked  up a few skincare items. I got the Garnier Micellar Water as I had seen it on a lot of blogs and I really wanted to give it a go. I love micellar waters and I am currently using the L'Oreal one which I love. I'd heard great things about the Botanics All Bright Toner so I thought I would get it as my current toner has nearly ran out. I saw the Simple Eye Balm and thought that I would give it a go I've had really dark circles recently and I thought that this might make me look more awake. 

I picked this hand wash up from the Body Shop, the Vanilla Bliss range is one of my favourites but you can only get it at Christmas so when I saw this hand wash I knew that I had to get it. 

I got this gorgeous feather/leaf necklace from Dorothy Perkins it was a bargain at £2 and I really love it. It is quite simple and it will go with so many outfits. The last thing I picked up was the Barry M Gelly Hi Shine in Blue Grape I really like the look of Nails Inc Baker Street but £11 is a lot to spend on a nail polish so I was looking for a similar colour in Boots. I saw this one and as I knew I already liked this range I thought I would give it a go. I love the colour and the shiny finish just makes it look even better.

Have you bought anything recently?

Clothing Haul January 2014

Recently I have bought quite a few bits of clothing the majority of it is from Primark but I have one item that isn't from Primark but I still wanted to share it with you.
So I got this first dress from Dorothy Perkins. It is made of quite a thick material it doesn't have any sleeves. It has pleather detailing around the collar and a white panel down  the middle of it. My school have recently relaxed the uniform rules for sixth formers so I am now allowed to wear dresses as long as they aren't brightly coloured and when I saw this I thought it would be perfect for school. I really like this dress and I think I'd be able to wear it outside of school as well. The best part about this dress is that it was a bargain at £7 down from £22.

Now onto the things I got in Primark. I really like their £3 t-shirts as they are very simple and easy to wear and they usually have a cute pattern. I picked up this white t-shirt with black hearts on. These tops are very affordable and in my experience last pretty well. I think that this will look lovely with jeans, I find I do have to get a size larger than I normally would as the sleeves can be a bit tight. 

I love this top and I have already worn it so many times. I love the style of it and the fact that it has Mickey Mouse on makes it even better. This top will work well with jeans or leggings and I am completely in love with it. I may pick up another one as it was only £7. 



I am a massive fan of the £5 skater dresses that Primark do. The style is really flattering on me and they do a great variety of colours and patterns. I have got the plain red one and I have worn it so much that I thought I would pick up some more. The 2 black ones I thought would be suitable for school, I love the blue flowers and the dots on them. I picked up the green one as well as I thought I would wear it quite a lot it was only £2 as it was in the sale. The red one was also £2 so I may have to pick another one of those up as well. 

I am going shopping again at the weekend so I will probably have another haul for you as I plan on going to Primark again as they have some lovely bits in at the moment. What have you bought recently?

Summer Essentials Fashion Edition

So I've already shared with you my makeup and beauty summer essentials and today I thought I would share with you my fashion summer essentials.
Topshop Mint Green Dress
Now this dress summarises 2 of the things that I love about summer. I love wearing cute dresses in the summer ones that flow and either have a pretty colour or a lovely floral pattern. The second thing that I love about this dress is the colour. I love mint green I am obsessed with the colour. If there is something that is mint green then I have to have it. This dress was actually a charity shop find it was from Topshop originally and when I bought it, it still had the tags on it so it was as good as new. The best part about it was that it was a bargain at £5. 

Sandals
The next summer must have is sandals. I love wearing sandals as I am able to show off my painted toe nails which always have a bright colour on during the summer. I own many sandals and this picture just shows a couple of the ones I own. I have a peach pair which is from Tesco I love the design of the straps and they were only £3 as I got them at the end of summer last year. They did many colours of them and I also have a sparkly gold pair. I have noticed that they have some similar ones in this year. The other pair are a sort of gladiator with a beautiful peacock style feather on them. I have a gorgeous blue maxi dress that I love wearing them with. I got them from Peacocks a couple of years ago. 
Mint Green Satchel Bag
The next thing I love is this mint green satchel style bag that was a birthday gift from my sister. I love the style and the colour of this bag. I also love the pink edging it has around it. The lining of the bag is also really pretty it has a cute floral design. In the summer I prefer to carry a smaller bag and although this is quite small it can fit a lot in it. 
Summer  jewellery
I am not a massive jewellery wearer but I do have a few bits that I love to wear during the summer. I love rose gold and I think it is a perfect colour for the summer. I have my Lipsy charm bracelet which I love. It is a bit like a Pandora bracelet but you buy it like it is with all the charms on it. I got this as a Christmas present one year and I love it. The rose gold bracelet is from Primark and I think it was £1.50. I love the style of it  and I think it looks gorgeous. The spike necklace is from Dorothy Perkins I love their jewellery and they always have amazing bargains in the sale. My earrings where a gift from my friends I love the colour and I think the flower design is perfect for summer. Lastly is my watch, I actually wear this watch all year round but I think it is perfect for the summer it is from New Look who stock some amazing watches. 
Red or Dead Sunglasses
Lastly are my sunglasses. I wear prescription glasses which meant I had to get some prescription sunglasses to protect my eyes. I bought these to go to Iceland to protect my eyes from the glare. I really like these which are from Red and Dead but I got them in Specsavers. I really like the shape of these as I find a lot of sunglasses are too big and don't suit my face shape but I really like these.

What are your summer must haves?

Summer Outfit #1

Summer Outfit with orange shorts

I wanted to start a new series on my blog, in which each week I will share an outfit with you that I think would be perfect for summer. Hopefully this may help or inspire you with ideas for summer outfits. I will make sure that the items a purse friendly and everything that I show will be under £50. 

So this is my first outfit, a perfect item for summer is a pair of coloured shorts. I only have a few pairs of coloured shorts as I'm quite picky about the style of them, but I really like these ones from H&M and they are really cheap too. I chose to pair it with a simple vest top and a few pretty accessories. 


Outfit Total: £83.48

That may seem a lot but you will can use each of these pieces to make new outfits as most of the items are quite basic. I love the bag and I think it will go with a lot of outfits and £37 is quite cheap for a bag which is quite spacious and looks amazing.

I hope you liked this outfit and I hope you like this new idea for a series.
