A London Kind Of Day

Now I don't go into London a lot - rarely ever in fact - even though I am so close I can hop on a bus there. But I had a few things on my mind that I wanted to do and one of those things was visiting Shake Shack! A very strange thing to look forward to but I am such a burger lover that I just had to go and try it.

I have to say it a little overrated but I loved it all the same - look at those cheese fries! And my refuse-to-eat-meat boyfriend had one and loved it - so proud! 

We walked around Kensington for quite a while too - I wanted to find this amazing park that me and my uncle went to a few weeks ago, but typical me I walked us in the wrong direction. 

(Thats me, lost in Kensington).

Did take a few snaps of my outfit; I'm wearing a Minkpink dress (here), Topshop sandals and my bag is from New Look.

Skincare Routine

I have an extremely simple skincare routine as I don't like putting too much product onto my face. At the moment I am using Garnier's Fresh Radiance Booting Scrub and I feel this really wakes my skin up in the morning (keeping true to it's name), clearing up any dirt that might have been left the night before. 

My night time skincare routine consists of only three things: my Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water and Fresh Radiance Boosting Scrub and Neutrogena's Blackhead Eliminating Cleansing Lotion. 

Everyone raves about the micellar solution so I knew I had to give it a try and this is definitely the best thing I have ever used to take off my make up. It removes literally everything I have on my face, including eye make up. I am so impressed by this product - I have been using this bottle for nearly three weeks and I still have an enormous amount left! 

I then go in with my face scrub just to get off any excess makeup, and finish with my cleanser just to get the final bits of makeup off. I love this product as I really struggle with the amount of blackheads I have - especially in my t-zone area, and I would definitely agree that the amount of blackheads I have has diminished quite a bit since using this product.

I don't finish off with any moisturiser or creams because I feel like they really clog up my skin and I wouldn't want to pile on more products after cleaning and cleansing my face. I have yet to find a moisturiser that doesn't make my skin feel oily and greasy, as that isn't something I would like to leave on my skin overnight.

How I Style Skorts W/Topshop

How I Style Skorts W/Topshop by joseymaypage 

Looking around Polyvore today, which is my favourite place to create boards, I just found myself looking through everything Topshop. I have such a huge wishlist when it comes to Topshop, but I picked out a few of my favourite skorts (shorts that look like a skirt), and styled them. 

Skorts are one of my favourite trends right now and I am seeing them everywhere. I love patterned and printed ones as they just add so much to an otherwise plain outfit. I've styled a casual outfit, a bit of a dressed up casual outfit, and one for more of a night out. 

Even though it's not particularly summery outside, I thought these would be good inspiration for some summer outfits, and hopefully the sun will come out soon so I won't be waiting too long!
