I tagged along with the parents into Leicester today to have a look around the shops...
I just wore some high waisted skinny jeans, my new t-shirt from Miss Selfridge and my Nike vintage blazers.
I only really needed a new foundation so I picked one of those up in Boots, and one of the Rimmel Vinyl Max lipglosses, which will is AMAZING and I'll be doing a post on early part of next week. I then went to Primark and got a few gems from the mens section - a hoody, tshirt and checked flannel shirt. Then I spotted a couple of pairs of tights that I couldn't resist....I'll be wearing these over next weekend so I'll post some outfit of the nights!
Wow I've been a terrible blogger recently, just been SO busy! Here's just a quick one to keep you going...
It was my birthday last week and I popped into Birmingham with my Mum and Dad to try and get my birthday present. I didn't really get much (don't know where my shopping mojo was that day!) but I will do a bit of a collective haul to show you what I did purchase over the weekend if I get chance!
I just threw on my trusty New Look denim shorts and Urban Outfitters cross top and of course my white converse...got to be comfy on your birthday!!
Me and the girls went out in Leicester on Saturday to celebrate me being old, and also as an excuse to show off my new 'plum' hair. I was a bit shocked at how dark it looked on my hair considering I'd seen a lot of other people dye their hair the exact same colour and looked so much lighter. I've not had chance to get a decent picture in natural light yet but I'll try and get one before it fades too much!
Whole outfit: Miss Selfridge
Wedges: New look
Jewellery: Everywhere!
Oh yeah and I popped out last night to see one of my friends who'd come back from uni for a few days....unfortunately my fat bum split my original choice of skirt so I threw on an old Topshop body con skirt with my H&M leather jacket, and Primark bow tights/over the knee sock combo...
Again, sorry I've been so rubbish! Hope you're all well!
A bit different to my monthly favourites, this has a bit of everything in it! The first one is my new coat from River Island. I wanted one of these last year but never got around to buying one. This year I wasn’t missing out. £50 from River Island.
Mememe lipstick in Pashmina Pink. I hate that it melts, but I love the smell, consistency, glossy finish, colour, staying power and packaging. Wearing this makes me feel 10x better.
Little Miracles: Perfect hangover cure, and great to keep me awake during the first couple of hours at work, which is always a struggle!!
Wearing two pairs of tights at once. OK this isn’t actually a new obsession as I’ve been doing it for years but now the weathers turning Baltic, I can’t get enough of how cosy my legs have been.
Office Mudslingers. No this isn’t my odd nickname for them, that’s their name. I bought these a couple of weeks before I left Office and I can honestly say they are the comfiest heels I’ve ever bought and non of my other going out shoes have had a look in. I’ve never once fallen over in them (which is a huge bonus as I tend to do this when I’ve had a wine or 5) and they’ve never ever rubbed or made my feet sore. I can walk all the way home in them after spending hours on the dancefloor. They are actually more comfortable than a lot of my flat every day shoes. And they look beautiful which is an added bonus.
Blanx toothpaste. Again not a new find, I’ve used this for AGES but I did kind of stop for a while (don’t know why) and noticed my teeth weren’t as pearly white anymore. So I’m re-acquainted with my old friend and can’t wait to be able to blind people with my smile. If you’ve never tried this, DO IT!
Ed Sheeran. No explanation needed. If you’re not sure what I’m on about, listen to this….
TV. Apart from getting hooked on the odd reality show, I’ve never been big into TV. But now, X Factor (I LOVE MARCUS, MISCHA, THE RISK AND CRAIG!!), TOWIE, Made in Chelsea, Educating Essex, Celebrity Juice, Goks Fashion Roadshow, Young Soldiers, Sandhurst, Strictly Come Dancing, 71 degrees North, the Bachelor, and the bloody rugby (love rugby, hate the early morning starts on a weekend!!) are taking over my life. Good job it’s winter and I’m man-less, gives me a good excuse to hibernate under my duvet on the sofa!!
What’s everyone else obsessed with right now?
And if it’s X Factor like me, who’s going to win?!?
