Monday Portrait #5

Cardigan - H&M

Blouse - Topshop

001. Hello! well, what a super crazy week! This morning is my lie-in morning and at 7 am I got dragged out of bed by my lovely boyfriend as he'd lost his wallet somewhere in my room (which, i have to warn -is VERY easy to do..) so that took a good half hour to do! & then, out of no where it suddenly started snowing, and has continued to all day long! 

002. So, I've finally made up my mind to have a massive room clear-out, yes! at last! this means taking everything off the walls, re-painting, re-arranging, getting rid of or selling clothes and bags etc.. over the Easter Holidays! and i'm soo excited, I've all ready started selling unused items which I've never worn or used on eBay which is strangely exciting!

003. As per usual iv been up to my ears in college work but i couldn't resist having a bit pf a shopping spree on Saturday which was fab, I got the chance to raid all the shops, and get some ideas for my room once its done! I also stocked up on Sea Kelp tables and Cranberry tables from Holland & Barrett which are my favourite! :)

004. Saturday night, The family went out and took my mum out for a dinner for Mothers Day as my sister and I were working all day Sunday. We went to this gorgeous pub which had fairy lights wrapped round wooden panels on the ceiling and it was beautiful and so cosy looking! 

 Hope you all got up to something lovely on Mothers Day too!

Have a wonderful week!

Home-Sweet-Home

home sweet home! 

Hello!

This is just a quick post as firstly, I would like to apologize for my lack of blogging over the last week! this has been because I have been skiing with my boyfriend out in the Spanish Pyrenees! 

The weather was wonderful and all my freckles have come out too.. (which I find totally embarrassing ) it also gave me a good chance to raid duty free too & Of course, I couldn't resist picking up a few bits and bobs! which I'll tell you all about tomorrow in my Monday Portrait! 

But I'm so happy to be at home now, to get greeted with a glass of Champagne, a Chinese take-away and a roaring fire after a very long day travelling!

I hope you've all had a brilliant half term! 

I would love to know what you guys got up to!

or if you will be going on holiday soon!

xoxo

Snowy days

Cream Peplum Top - River Island

Black Disco Pants - River Island

Faux fur Jacket with wet look sleeves - Miss Guided

Shoes - Miss Selfridge

Bow Necklace - DollyBowBow

Umbrella - New Look

001. So this week started with a flurry of snow &as iv never done an outfit of the day, I thought today would be the day! I recently have been in love with peplum tops, I think they're so flattering and go so well with chunky necklaces! &I love this coat too which I got from Miss Guided, as it has a really soft body, wet look sleeves and a big black fur collar which is gorgeous, then of course, disco pants.. which go with everything! 

002. Earlier this week I bought Clean Slate and Skin Tight from MumaMio which arrived super quick! I'v been using the Clean Slate face wash recently and it has made my skin so soft and even-looking, but I haven't yet used the Skin Tight toning serum, but I shall do a review on them both soon! 

003.This week has been a very busy week as we are finishing all our final pieces at college so iv been feeling very run down as soon as I get home I slip into my christmas onesie from primark, sit on the sofa with a hot chocolate, cream & marsmellows (of course!) & watch a good film cosied up with the fire! 

but today it was a lemsip for me! as today I woke up with the biggest sore throat this morning & horrible cold but come the evening iv been feeling a lot better &got loads of work done too -yay! :)

Have a wonderful week!

Christmas nail art

Christmas nail art

Snow flakes

yes! It's the time for all the Christmas nail art to come out!

also, before we start my nails are in awful condition at the moment due to my art at college and they keep breaking! but im doing m best to keep them in shape! :) 

so, here is my first post for Christmassy nails, this is how you do snowflakes! &its super simple!

Firstly, prep them using any sort of base nail varnish. Personally, i love OPI nail envy!

then, take a white nail varnish and a sparkly blue nail varnish, im using the Rimmel London nail tip whitener and OPI Austin-Tatious turquoise.

I then used the 17 nail xtras glitter top coat and used this on every single nail. 

after that, i dipped a thin nail art paint brush into the white nail varnish and created snowflakes by doing a cross and small flicks of nail varnish off the cross and added a small gem in the middle for effect.

i then added black dots along the bottom of the white tips, but these are optional. 

I hope you liked this post, and more Christmas posts shall be coming up shortly! 

xoxo
