Jacket: H&M
Vest: H&M
Trousers: Primark
Heels: H&M

Just want to show you a couple of things I've purchased recently (the trousers above being one of them).
Starting with the shoes, which I got for my uniform. I am used to heels and used wear heels literally every day and even to work, but these are quite steep so not sure if I am actually going to wear these for any of 12-8 shifts.
Going to have to find a way to work with them or just stick to my flats.
As I've said before I'm really liking pointy shoes at the moment and the sophistication they add to an outfit, and I was instantly drawn to the diagonal feature at the front of the shoe, wish they came in the a black suede as well.

Moving on to make-up, I haven't really been wearing anything this "summer" except mascara, but I wanted something that would give me some colour and a glow.
That's how I found my way to MAC, I purchased the blusher "Raizin" a blusher according to Youtube beauty gurus is a colour which every women with a dark skin tone should own, on MAC website it's describes as a golden reddish-brown colour. For the glow I decided to go for "Format" described as pinkish-brown, not quite sure where the pink comes in, but love it nonetheless. I also got a new lipstick with Back-to-Mac, called "Retro" a muted peachy-pinky brown. I love this colour it's such a nice nude colour and one you can wear every day. If you go on my Instagram @5inchheels you can see a picture of me wearing it.
