AHH! It's 2015 now. It'll take me a while to get used to that date. I'm sure everybody has New Years Resolutions that they may or may intend to keep! Here are mine:
 I'm hoping that at the end of the year I can look back at these and tick them all off. :D
Originally I had no plans for New Years Eve but then my boyfriends family were going to a party at a hotel so we ended up going out which was very nice. I had the usual dilemma of what to wear and wanted to wear something with sequins but they just didn't look right on.
During the day i'd been told by a homeless man 'nice legs, shame about the face' so I decided to put a little extra effort in with my makeup!
 Ever since watching Helen Anderson's Get ready with me earlier in the year, I have been addicted to Loreal's True Match minerals powder foundation in Golden Ivory. It goes on like a dream and matches my skin perfectly while lasting all day! I also ended up going for a red lip in the end.
I loved my outfit that I eventually decided on: (click on brand for link)

I loved wearing the outfit! The skirt was amazing on :)
I hope you all had an amazing new years eve and have a great start to 2015!

I'm back! Apologies for the abscence but I've made blogging into one of my New Years Resolutions so I promise to be better in 2015!
What better way to get back into the blogging spirit than a Christmas post? I had SUCH a good Crimbo and am now about a stone heavier due to turkey, roast tatties and chocolate...
Every year me, my little bro and my sister have our photos done around the Christmas tree, we get bored of posing nicely though so choas usually ensues. 
Hopefully everyone had as merry a Christmas as I did and is looking forward to starting another year :)

Told you I'd be back! This was my OOTD yesterday. I've been DYING to wear my Rock on Ruby jumpers since I got them but it's just not been cold enough! So I bit the bullet anyway and wore one :) 
On IG, R.O.R had asked for slogan suggestions for their Christmas jumpers range, as I had made a contribution they VERY kindly sent me a 10% off code, which, naturally, I used on their Christmas jumpers! I bought this one which reads 'The Cold Never Bothered Me Anyway' and another amazeballs one which is 'Do you want to build a snowman?' (I'm saving this one for nearer crimbo!) 
Not only do Rock on Ruby have a fun range of Xmas jumpers, but also a fantastic range of customizable slogan tees, bags, everything AND you can design your own if you have something in mind! They're super popular on IG and really good quality products.
The jumper is fleecy feeling inside so the cold really doesn't bother me in it! It's nice and baggy (I bought a large and it completely covers my bottom!) and I rolled the sleeves up for a bit of a 'cool' vibe. 
I styled it with my mom jeans (which I hate NOT wearing although I look huge in them!) boyfriend's Fenchurch plimsolls as they were grey, some gold jewellery and (not in pics) a chunky black belt. I felt quite 80's/90's and also a massive geek which I loved!
Hope you like it and go and check Rock on Ruby out, i'll definitely be buying more from them in the future!

  • Dress - Motel
  • Boots - Select
  • Bracelet and Choker - Depop (There are some great bits on there!)
  • Hamsa Necklace - Jenems 
  • Ring (Part of a set) - New Look
Yay! I was so excited this morning when the post arrived as I knew my Motel dress had arrived! I had seen dress around IG a lot and I loved the print and the style so I decided to give it a go.
I paired it with ankle boots and would probably wear black tights out with this as it's quite short! I also continued the 90's style with the hair and accessories.
Going to be trying to get more photos of me IN the items now, we'll see how that goes...
So this was todays OOTD.
It all came from good old Primarni and comes in at £20 if not less! The shoes were only £4 (I know right!) and so obviously I now have them in 3 colours :)
I wore this to work today knowing that I was going to be teaching a (albeit boring) gymnastics lesson, so I needed something easy to move and stretch in.
These printed pants are PERFECT! It's the nearest thing to being in PJ bottoms without actually BEING in PJ bottoms, they're glorious.
I thought the outfit was a bit boring on its own and needed a bit of bling so I added my Disney Couture bangle and owl necklace from New Look.
I would take lovely photos but I can't seem to find my camera/I have noone to take them for me :( So you'll have to make do with this rubbish for now.
This just makes me think I want a bob, but then I remember what that was like last time!

Phew! I've finally been able to relax this weekend :)
I've had a rather hectic weekend; after work on Friday I had an hour to be ready to get up to Brighton for a night out...Panic stations! (It was a nightmare, especially as my face just did not want to stop sweating.) This is what I ended up looking like, which tbh i'm quite proud of:
Tried to go for a dark red lip and live outside the box a little! (Barry M)
Also my flower crown is from http://instagram.com/summer_crown
After trawling the shops during the week I managed to find this little beauty to wear from New Look;
I absoloutely loveee it! It's super bright and summery whilst not being too short or see through :)
 Really enjoyed my night out in Brighton and did a hell of a lot of dancing which equalled very sweaty hair! However it came in useful the next day when I went out to Crayford dogs as I just sprayed and scrunched!
My gorgeous top was from http://www.spoiledbrat.co.uk in the sale :)
Overall I had a super fun Friday and Saturday and today my bf managed to find this gem in a charity shop...
 Perfect!
