My Amazing Weekend...

Well it pretty much started off with a spot of shopping on Friday lunch time where I picked up these beauties....


Just a few basics like dry shampoo (and yes, that there is the SHIMMER Batiste....it's basically just disco in a can!) and some clear nail varnish, but I also picked up the Sleek Pout Polish from their nude collection...


Which I do love the colour of but HATE the weird after taste you get after it's been on a while. I also picked up another of the Famous by Sue Moxley shimmer bricks, this time in rose pink. I've almost got the full set of these now, and no doubt this will come up in my August favourites because it's all I've worn all weekend!


I also picked up the Garnier BB cream that everyone's been talking about, can't say much about this yet as I've not given it enough testing but I will do a full review later in the week when it's had a reasonable trial! 

Friday night I went to a charity clothes swap for my mums friend who's doing a trek in Cambodia and raising money for the fund. I did quite well and came away with a dress and a necklace, which I'll feature in an outfit of the day post sometime this week! I went quite casual for it in an old Topshop stretchy dress, tights and flat black boots...


I especially love my hair in this one, I used my Andrew Barton wave makers I featured in a video a couple of weeks ago and just pinned it to one side with loads of extensions in. I think this is going to be recreated quite a lot over the next few weeks!

Anyway on to the most exciting part of the weekend! If you follow me on twitter you'll know I've been up to Lincoln this weekend for a Uni reunion with most of my old housemates. Basically it was one of the best weekends I've had for ages and was nice to get away from Leicester for a night!! It pretty much revolved around fatty foods, alcohol, meeting foreign men and tampons (the less said about that the better but put it this way, a tampon is NOT acceptable currency to pay for a drink in a bar....)

I apologise now for some of the following pictures the word 'messy' springs to mind....











And I do believe this last one about sums up the night...
Hope everyone had equally amazing weekends!

Tears dry on their own....

OK yes I know that's quite a depressing title but it's just a little tribute to the amazingly talented Amy Winehouse, from my fave song of hers. Such a shame :(

Anyway enough of that, hello lovelies :) Hope you've all had an amazing weekend, I had a fab night out last night with a couple of the girls, but I'm paying for it now, I'm SO tired and I couldn't even manage to finish my Nando's earlier! Must be bad! I got a couple of shots before we went out, and had a little play on photobooth (standard pre-night out activity so it would seem!) .....

ME: Top: H&M
Jeans: Primark
Shoes: Office
Jewellery: Mainly Primark and H&M

STEPH: Top: River Island
Skirt: Topshop
Shoes: Faith
Jewellery: Mainly Dorothy Perkins







I am in love with these jeans, even though it did take a few lunges and trips up and down the stairs to loosen them up because they were practically sprayed on!

I popped into Leicester with the parents today, I didn't need/want anything except a free meal from them but I did pick up a couple of bits in H&M.....



Just some standard jewellery, nothing too amazing, but I am really into these sort of bracelets at the moment. Their only downfall is taking them off at half three in the morning after a night out where I thought it would be a good idea to pile them on....yes this was the exact scenario from half three this morning, I think I must have given up halfway through because I woke up wearing most of them this morning. Also, a quick snap of my OOTD from today, could NOT be bothered so it was my standard outfit of checked shirt, denim shorts, tights and trainers.

Shirt: Forever 21
Black vest: Primark
Shorts: Topshop
Tights: Primark
Trainers: Nike vintage blazers at Office
Rings: Dorothy Perkins 
Lipstick: Brighton Rocks by Topshop
