Cardigan - Warehouse
Necklace - Tiffany's
   Hey everyone,
   I hope that your not missing Robyn to much and that your enjoying my fellow bloggers and myself trying to fill her place for a while.

   I bought this skirt the day before my 20th and love it! It's very 'Kate Middleton' (well at least I like to think so!) but my dislike is the length, its really short! Like, I can see bottom short.

   I am going through a bit of a style rut at the moment and not really sure how to style it, how would you lovely lot style it? I am quite keen to mix it up with colour! I am always interested to hear about how other bloggers would style some of my garments so always feel free to tell me! 

I'm @GeorginaPorgina on twitter! 
or you can ask me on Formspring if you want to remain anonymous.

   Anyway i'll keep it short and sweet, how have you all been? What have you been up to this week?
Ps. Robyn: I love Georgina's skirt! I'm obsessed with lace (especially cream and white lace) at the moment.
   I'll be back in England tonight (whoopie...) and back to blogging in a couple of days (YAY!) with some decent outfit posts as I've moved out of my house with an overgrown, scary, dead bird filled garden! So fingers crossed the weather isn't too bad! Thanks to all my guest bloggers and I hope you've all enjoyed a bit of a variety show on my blog haha! :) xx

Guest post by Little Miss Sunshine: OOTD

   Hello everyone,
   I just wanted to introduce myself! My name is Georgina and I am going to be doing a few posts whilst the lovely Robyn is in Tenerife. (lucky!) I thought the best way to introduce myself is with a questions and answers summary, so here it goes.
Who is Georgina, and what is Little Miss Sunshine Style?
I am Georgina, I am 20 years old. I have a background in beauty therapy, but changed my career path to e-commerce, I am now a website merchandiser for clothing! My job means that I am in charge for my department when it comes to anything website related (bar actually buying the products) so I manage promotional creative, making sure we have appropriate marketing coverage, assessing sales figures and click rates etc. As I have both a background in clothing and beauty 'Little Miss Sunshine' is my outlet! It contains snippets of my life, DIY, beauty reviews, my lookbook and anything else I want to ramble on about. I also own an online jewellery boutique Jimmy and his girl with my boyfriend. 

Where does the name 'Little Miss Sunshine' come from?
It's what my boyfriend calls me, I also think it comes from my love of sunshine and all things 'tan'


Why did you begin to blog?
When I left college in 2010 I wasn't quite sure what I wanted to do, In my last few weeks of college I was only going in a day a week and I didn't have a job. I had decided at this point that beauty therapy wasn't for me as a career path, but I didn't know what was! I then bought my first copy of Vogue and things became a little clearer... I've always loved clothes, but I never was that passionate, I never thought I had the 'stylist flair' - At this point though I knew I wanted to work in clothing! Going back to college and then uni wasn't really an option for me, I don't really get on with education, so I began reading blogs to get my fashion fix! I then plucked up the courage to start my own!


What's your greatest blog achievement?
I know it sounds really cheesy, but I am proud that people actually read my blog. All of my followers mean the absolute world to me, and although they may not know it, I am always snooping on their blogs too. But if I had to pick a certain landmark, I think when I was contacted by George at Asda that was pretty big. They asked me to review an item of clothing, and I must say I felt so privileged. 

How do you know Robyn?
Robyn and I come from the same hometown, I am also best friends with her big sis!
 Ps. Robyn: I asked Georgina to do a little introductory post for you all, as I love a little nosey into the life / reasons behind the blogger / blogging! She's also been kind enough to do another post for me, which will be popping up on your feeds in the next few days.

Guest post by Little Miss Sunshine: A snippet about Georgina

   Hi,
   I am Katrin from Tarte Aux Fraises. I am 23 years old and live in Geneva, Switzerland. I wanted to show you today how to do a Switzerland inspired messy bun. I wear this a lot when my hair is dirty, it takes super short time and I only need 5 bobby pins for it! 

Step 1

Begin with brushed dirty hair. 
Step 2

Split hair in two parts, lower and upper.


Step 3

Twist the upper part and form a bun, bobby pin it down. (I use 1 - 2 bobby pins)


Step 4

Split the lower part into two parts and start braiding one side.
Step 5

Pin the braid on the opposite side of head with a bobby pin


Step 6

Do the same with the other half.


Step 7

Make sure the braids are stuck and the bun is holding. Spray with hairspray if you want (I never do)

As you can see the hair needs to be long to do this. 

If you want to know what make-up I am wearing in these pictures, it is from my Make-Up Monday #10

Bisous :) 
Ps. Robyn: This hairstyle is so cute! I might even try it out on holiday! Doesn't Katrin have the most gorgeous hair you've every seen?!

Guest Post by Tarte Aux Fraises: Switzerland inspired messy bun

   Hi everyone,

   My name is Sophie and I blog over at Sophee, my blog is a mix of beauty reviews and fashion posts. When Robyn said she was looking for people to guest post for her whilst she was away I thought it would be a great chance for me to share a product with you that I think will be great to use over the coming summer months.

   The product is the Natural Collection Tinted Moisturiser in the shade 'natural'. I picked up this product on a whim, it only cost me £1.99, and to be honest I wasn't expecting great things, but I was pleasantly surprised.



  
   It is described as giving a 'Light, sheer cover for a natural looking finish.' From the minute I applied this I knew it would be a winner, it blends effortlessly into the skin, and it moisturises and adds a hint of colour at the same time - perfect for those hot summer months when you don't want to be applying heavy foundation, but would still like a little coverage.

   The only downside about this product is that it comes in a fairly limited colour range, there are only 3 shades available, making it difficult to find the perfect shade for your skin. (I am fairly pale, and found that natural was the closest match for me).
  
   The moisturiser also gives skin a more dewy look, which may not be for everyone, but you can just apply some powder over the top of it if you fancy a more matte look. All in all I think it's a great product, and for £1.99, it is definitely worth checking out!


   A massive thanks to Robyn for letting me guest post!

Ps. Robyn: Thank you for letting us know about this little gem Sophie! Next time I'm in Boots I'll have a look at it, definitely! Sophie is similar to me in that she loves a bargain too - check out her blog for some great beauty posts in particular.

Guest post by Sophee: Review - Natural Collection Tinted Moisturiser

   Hi Guys,

   My name is Caroline from all about the girl and I offered to do a guest post for Robyn while she was away on holiday (not jealous at all!!!). I love Robyn's blog and I think she's got great style...so I hope I don't show her up with my measly little offering.





Shoes - Office
Jeggings - Gap
Blouse - Urban Outfitters
Jacket - Miss Selfridge


    So here I am, this is me, and my outfit. If you know my blog you'll recognise these wedges, I bought them for my holiday and they've barely left my feet since I got them...too bad it's now forecasted to rain in England for the rest of year (probably!) so looks like they'll be resigned to the back of the wardrobe for a while! As wedges go, they are the comfiest I've ever owned...AND they do them in tan, next pay cheque's purchase perhaps?! 

   The rest of the outfit is a fairly standard work day outfit for me, jeggings and a blouse?! Check! I bought this jacket a couple of years ago, and forgot about it for a while, and I just discovered it again the other day...I've since stuck it on top of every outfit this week! 

   I apologise that my photos aren't as pretty and as good quality as Robyn's but I'm pretty new to blogging and still getting to grips with photos...haven't braved outdoor pictures yet, but I'm feeling inspired by Robyn so watch this space.... 

   Hope Robyn is having a fab hol and hope I haven't bored you all too much :)


Ps. Robyn: Thanks so much Caroline! I love your jacket it's gorgeous! I love the variety of posts on Carolines blog, I love a bit of beauty and fashion mixed in together! Definitely go and have a nosey at her blog here!
