So far in oz....

I've met some interesting people to say the least. A camp oz guy on the plane who's gone to London to see the jubilee and was covered head to toe in union jacks, an Irish girl trying to smuggle crisps into the country, and a German/belgium/Canadian guy who so far hasn't eaten in 3 days, to name but a few. I'm now sat in my hostel room with 7 other guys listening to an American surgeon and a Portuguese drummer jamming to guns and roses. And we're only on day three.....

Off to Oz I go....

Hey lovelies, just a quick one to say I'm off on my travels today! I'm flying to Oz later tonight for my 12 month adventure so I'll be posting a LOT less regular. I hope I'll still manage a couple a month, just some Australia related ones and some outfits etc, and hopefully I'll discover some new products out there I can tell you all about. I'll still be here though, so don't forget about me!

Lots of love

All my favourites...

We're on final count down now, three sleeps till Australia! I went out with the girls for the last time on Sunday and decided to throw on all of my favourite elements in one outfit....over the knee socks, Litas, leather, denim, studs, black and my Saint Germain lipstick....



Then I just went out to get some last minute things for my travels...I needed a couple of memory cards for my Canon as I'll be taking loads of snaps! Again, I threw on ripped denim, black vest and my converse...all my favourites!


I'm off to finish my packing now and make sure it all fits in my bag!

Sunday lunch OOTD....

Firstly, ONE WEEK until Oz, how fast has that come round?! Mum and Dad took me out for lunch on Sunday as a bit of a 'farewell' meal (I'm hoping it wasn't a 'thank god she's going lets celebrate' meal!). Thought I'd dress up for the occasion and wear my favourite Miss Selfridge skirt...

Bag: River Island
Tights: Primark
Boots: Office
Jewellery: Asos, Forever21, Primark

LOVE this nail varnish, it's a random one from the W7 range that I picked up in New Look I think, super neon!

Collection 2000 lasting perfection concealer

Eyebrows: HD Brows & GOSH eyebrow gel
UD eyeshadow in Naked
GOSH liquid eyeliner
Maybelline gel eyeliner

Hopefully I'll get a what makeup I'm taking to Oz post up this week before I leave!

Secret holiday....

If you follow me on Twitter or read my last post on here, you'll know my boyfriend booked a secret four night getaway for us and would not let on to where we were going. With the car packed up and a 'secret holiday playlist' cd blasting we set off. After many guesses (every time I saw a signpost for a new place) I found out we were stopping in a gorgeous log cabin (complete with hot tub) just outside York. In short, it was absolutely amazing. Thought I'd pop a few pictures and OOTD's up for you...

Dress: Miss Selfridge
Shirt: River Island
Tights and hoody: Primark
Vans: Office

Top: Forever21
Shorts: Topshop
Tights: Primark
Jewellery: Asos/ Forever21/Miss Selfridge
Converse: Office

Summery OOTD's....

Hey loves, it's been a bit quiet on here this week (again, I know, poor excuses...) but I've been so busy getting things sorted for Oz and catching up with everyone before I go! I went out on Friday to meet some old work colleagues for a Nando's and a glass of wine or two...


Top: H&M
Skirt & Necklace: Primark
Bag: River Island
Watch: ASOS
Bracelets/Rings: Various



And then for an all you can eat chinese with the boyfriend last night (any excuse to stuff yourself silly really) and made the most of the nice weather to wear a floaty dress for maximum belly feeding!


Dres: New Look
Jacket: Topshop
Bag: River Island
Necklace: Miss Selfridge
Sunglasses: H&M
Watch: ASOS
Bracelets/Rings: Various


I'm away next week (off to a secret location for a few nights courtesy of said bf, can't wait!) so I'll be back next week with some good pictures hopefully!


Hope everyone's had a lovely week/weekend in the beautiful sunshine!

My leaving night out...

It's still three weeks to go until I jet off to Oz but I had my leaving night out on Saturday before all the chaos of the last few weeks starts! Thought I'd put a couple of pictures from Saturday into a post, you may have seen some of these on Instagram (_miss_emma_ if you want to follow me!!) but there's a few more random shots from the night out...



I wore my new dress from Primark (bargain!) with my JC Lita's and just a Dorothy Perkins black belt round the middle! I also went for red lipstick which I realised I didn't actually own. Nearly 100 lipsticks and no red....Nightmare! I picked one up with my Boots Points from Revlon called Fire & Ice which is now my favourite lipstick I own!
