Sunny days.....

The last few days have felt like I'm on holibobs, whilst being at home. My family came down for a long weekend and it was just perfect...

Very fashionista outfit by me...

I'm so excited for the weekend.....tonight we are just going to relax with a couple of glasses of wine. Tomorrow I'm off to get my hair done, legs done and going for a Benefit make-up trial....cannae wait!I've got my eye on this moisturiser...

PYO and yummy treats

What a lovely weekend, we went to the PYOon Saturday and picked blackcurrants, raspberries, a cauliflower, onions and carrots......was so much fun!!

On Saturday night I made blackcurrant and raspberry jam and a ribena cheesecake and if I say so myself it was delish!!

On the Sunday we went to walk my Uncle's dog and on the way back stopped at a lovely chocolate cafe. My BF had an ice cream float and I had a coffee and a chocolate icecream. It was lovely and really relaxing to chill. It was really cute becaue the icecream was prepared in an old icecream van......so if you're ever in Petworth deffo visit!!

Have a fab week!!!

What a difference 5 months make

I can't believe I abandoned my Blog again..........

To be fair it's been absolutely mad. 5 months ago we were in the house (trying to sell), I was a law school and stuck working at Clarks......

Well we are STILL trying to sell the house..........but that is the only thing that is the same.

I finished law school in June and recently received a DISTINCTION....I was so chuffed after spending 2 years working my ass off, especially after losing Mum mid way through my first year. I feel really good coming through to the other side and I'm looking forward to my (hopefully) sucessful career.

I am now working in the dizzy heights of canary wharf (In one canada square...yes the one with the pyramid) as a paralegal. I'm really enjoying using my degree and learning on the job. I am currently looking for the elusive training contract......

Having a full time city job means that I have a slightly higher budget so have been splashing out at Topshop a little bit.

Here's what else I've been up to..............


Harry Potter studio tour was amazing and I thoroughly recommend a visit..............

Sunshine!!

What a glorious weekend!!It was bf's birthday and we went and watched the footie and the dog racing.....was a very manly weekend but I did enjoy it!

A good day was  had by all. The polka dot dress I have on was from Tesco and cost me a fiver in the sale!!!

love axx

I heart spring bits

In my mounds of studying today I had a quick peruse at a couple of accessories I fancy......I've already spied out a few dresses a couple of posts ago!!As I was mentally styling those dresses I realised I needed a few accessorises to accompany them (I don't want them to be lonely!)

These are super cute with flowery material and bird/bow combo!!However at £10 I do think they are a tiny bit pricey. They are from the ever faitful accessorize

This is so cute and comes in a variety of colours/ways of attaching to your head. I love crown and glory, I think their items are so pretty and can really make your outfit. It's also £5 plus p+p. Which I don't think is too much, due to the statement it will make!

To match the hair band, this bag is soooooo cute and very minniemousesque. It's £25 and very, very pretty!Good ole Topshop

These are supercomfy and all real leather, I also like the purple lining. £29.99 so fairly expensive for sandals, but as they are clarks you know they'll last and due to the styling, they won't need to stay hidden next summer!

I really want to try the pixi range and at £20, this seems a good price (it comes with a free bag). They use natural ingredients so are good for a more sensitive skin type like moi. Chem them out on ASOS

These are big and beautiful baby and I already own them. They were in ASOS's top 50 picks last week and I picked them up for £8. They are sadly now back to £16, but being Jeepers Peepers I don't think that's too bad. They are lovely!!(Post to follow with them in I'm sure)

I have deffo got a heart trend going on!!!£8 from ASOS

I have featured these before....they are so cute I couldn't help but show them again. £44.99 from Clarks....they are unbelievably comfy, bring on payday

Am drinking jasmine tea in bed now.....gotta long day at College tomorrow. Coffee and gossip will get me through!!!Muchos Love,

my weekend

Having very little money, we had a very quiet weekend. It consisted mainly of baking for me and Xboxing for bf. I was also sad about Mother's day as I miss my Mummy lotses.

I had a guiness, my family are Irish so I do love St Paddys!!

 

In my baking efforts I rustled up Sultana scones. vienesse whirls, shortbread, Victoria sponge and some chocolate covered honeycomb. Bf's Mum and Grandmum came over on Sunday for tea and cake which was nice

I love,love,love my vintage cakestand. I saw it in a florists and my bessie went back and bought it for me for my birfday!

Tomorrow I have a mountain of work to do....yawn, am also hoping the majority of the bf's pressies arrive (it's his birfday on Fri) so I can begin wrapping them. Fingers crossed we get an offer on our house this week, am desperate to start planning the move....
