Caturday

What's new, pussycats? Tonight, I'm wearing my cat t-shirt from eBay and cracking on with my uni work in a major way. (Can't find the exact one, but here's a grey (?) version! Lots of hilarious options if you just search 'cat t-shirt'!)I've arranged a Nando's date with Alex for Monday night as an incentive for me to reach my main milestone of this project (getting all of the words &...

Tuesday tip: French tip/half moon secret weapon

I remember hearing about this tip in school but have only just tried it out! I think it is quite a well-known technique, so forgive me if this is old news to you. But if I can share a tip that makes nail art easier for just one person, I'll be a happy bunny! So, the secret weapon for achieving perfect half moons and french tips? Paper hole reinforcers! I got mine in Wilkinson's for about 99p. This...

What I wore the other day

I got this super cute dress the other day for £15 in New Look's sale. I bought another dress too so I could decide which to keep once I got home, but didn't realise you couldn't get a refund on sale items. Boo! Crummy policy, New Look. But thanks for the lovely dress... Not sure whether to love or hate you right now! (Worn with my battered charity shop boots and cute socks c/o Very.co.uk.)I'm...

Lazing on a sunny afternoon

Hola! Sorry I haven't been able to post. Besides being mega busy, I couldn't find my memory card reader anywhere, so my photos were imprisoned on my cam, and thus my Tuesday tip was scuppered! I found the reader this morning (down the sofa, obvz) and just figured it's best to save it until a Tuesday rather than mid week!You'll have to bear avec moi and my flaky ways for a while longer as I'm...

Wearing words

Evening gals (and guys?) xoThanks for your response to my poll about my 2000+ follower celebrations. Very helpful, and so far, it looks like most people are wanting the best of both worlds - sponsored prizes and ones I've bought too. Will get on the case as soon as I'm done with uni! Anyway, I wanted to show you these cute new arrivals in Sophie's shop (Oh My Clumsy Heart). Alex used to work...

Chatter

Hello strangers!I've had  a very funny/busy/random/terrifying/lol week. Long story short, I had some camera men filming me in my flat on Friday! I will share more when I know for sure if I'm gonna be on the telly box or not... Don't like to jinx these things!The madness doesn't end, as they're back for more on Tuesday, and the rest of my week will be consumed with trying to get my Final Major...

Tuesday tip: buy the paper today!

Morning!A cheeky tip this week, as my Tuesday Tips have been features in The Times today! You can find it on page 21 of the Times2 pullout, on the Young Times page. Here's the link for anyone with a subscription to the site!I am so very excited and chuffed to have been asked to be involved! I never realised it would take up so much of the page! Eep!Outfit credits can be found here!I did have a 'proper'...

On the Naughty Step: Blistex Relief Cream

Let me start off by saying that this stuff is actually one of my miracle products. It is the only lip product I've had that actually treats chapped lips without just glossing over the problem. (Don't excuse the pun, it was a bloody good one!)My only problem is with the awful packaging! Those that own this will know what I mean, but for those that don't: - It comes in a flexible metal...

OOTD

A very quick outfit post today, as I'm about to rush off to work. Then it's a colleague's leaving drinks afterwards, so I won't be about to blog later. Thought I'd switch up from the borrring background in my hallway today...(Jacket - H&M, Dress - Topshop, Belt - H&M, Bow - H&M, Boots - charity shop)The jacket is probably a bit much on a warm day like today, but the air con was a...

Farmyard fun

Hey hey! I thought I'd share some funny pics from my trip home at the weekend to visit my mum and sister for mother's day. We visited Blackberry Farm 'The Fashion Farm' eagle-eyed readers may recall from last year!Me and my sister are obsessed with animals so it was very selfless of mum to suggest a trip to the farm! We did feel slightly out of place being the only visitors without small children...

Belated Tueday Tip: DIY no sew duct tape purse!

Forgive the delay of this tip. It was all filmed and shot by yesterday evening, but technology got in the way. Including me not having a clue how to use the latest version of iMovie (resulting in tears of frustration) and the final video taking 679 years to upload to Youtube.  Hopefully it's worth the wait (and my tears), as it's a really fun DIY project for yourself or as a gift.I've made a...
