Sunshine through my window.

- SUN - Ramsgate pier - Pimms o'clock - The best ice cream - Shopping day - Cocktails with Sophie -  Beach -  Drinks with the boys - Outfit - Broadstairs beach - Midge - Music in the sun - 


001. So unless you have been in a hole the last few days or not seen the millions of tweets and status's you will know the sun has been shining! Knowing how temperamental this English weather can be i made sure i took full advantage of every last bit of sunshine (still very pale though boo).

002. It was payday and hot on Friday, couldn't be a better excuse to shop! Managed to be good with my spending for once (blog shall follow with my purchases!) For the rest of the weekend i pretty much drank pimms and sunned it up with friends, could you ask for much more?

003. Hope everyone had a lovely weekend, cant wait for the bank holiday this weekend hopefully weather holds out!

Ballrooms

001. Had such a lovely weekend with friends! Went out on Friday night to a place in Canterbury called Ballrooms had such a good night (of what i remember) especially drinking cocktails out of tea cups, ever so sophisticated. I finally got to wear my H&M playsuit have been waiting for a bit more warmth as its very leggy, i also finally managed to get hold of the Topshop Lisbon heels in tan have been searching for ages and we happened to get a return in my size.... must have been fate!!

002. For a change i didn't lie in bed all day after my night out feeling sorry for myself and got myself out in the little sun we had! My friend and fellow blogger Jess was down from London so we had a nice catch up over tea, ice cream and dog walking.

Hope everyone had a lovely weekend...

Feel the love.

001. Feel like i haven't blogged in ages! Here are a few photos from my last two weeks, unfortunately nothing exciting just enjoying the sunshine when i can! This year feels like its flying by can not believe its nearly June, although this does mean not long till my birthday eeek!

002. I have been pretty good with shopping this week in only purchasing a MAC lipstick (Russian red, finally) and another piece of uniform for work. There seems to be so much i want at the moment, one day i will learn the art of saving..... maybe.

003. Last but no least this song.... Obsessed springs to mind? Every time i listen to it it just makes me so happy!! I have played it at least 8 times today my parents are going to be so sick of it soon. I have never heard of John Newman before i originally thought it was Maverick Sabre i am in love with his voice but anyway if you are looking for a happy summer song here we go......

Pay day purchases

CHANEL bronzer - MAC melba blusher - MAC charcoal brown eye shadow - Real techniques blusher brush - Random samples - Zara plaited shopper bag - H&M shirt - H&M necklace -  H&M playsuit - Topshop Leigh jeans - 
001. Anyone else poor already from pay day....? Went a little mad which i will pay for later in the month but hey ho only live once! I have needed some new make up for ages so headed to my nearest Fenwicks and spent untold amount of time in there, the bronzer is one of my favourite buys its a cream
so perfect for my skin and is easy to build up for a nice bronzed look.

002. I always like to get some samples before making massive spends. I got a few of the Estee Lauder advanced night repair and it is brilliant, It has made such a difference to my skin in only 5 days i will 100% purchase a bottle when the samples have run out. Very very happy i have finally got this bag it seemed to keep selling out online finally managed to snatch one up and im in love!

003. Loving H&M as well recently there are so many bargains i almost don't feel so guilty buying so much. I got the jeans on my Topshop uniform so only cost me £15 pounds i need to brighten up my wardrobe a bit i seem to have too much black!

BB Cream!

Garnier miracle skin perfecter BB. RRP £7.49
001. So... my first ever product review! I am more in to my fashion than beauty but not to say i don't have an interest in it, i like to try new products and see what works for me! My friend Sophie is a product fanatic and will always give me a hand when investing in new purchases, shes like my guru!


002. I seem to get very dry skin which unfortunately has been playing up a lot lately, my foundation seemed to be doing no good at all (even though supposedly for dry skin) so i ditched that until i can find a better one. I have heard a lot about the Garnier BB cream so decided to give it a try, it seemed to be exactly what i needed while in the middle of foundations and i had hoped the moisturiser would help my skin. Garnier claims it will help in 5 ways;
1. Hydrates for 24hrs
2. Evens tone
3. Corrects blemishes
4. Boosts healthy glow
5. UV Protection SPF 15


003. I can honestly say my skin is much better now i have started using this and got rid of my foundation, it is very light on the skin and leaves a nice dewy effect. The tone on my skin has always been relatively even so i haven't concentrated on the changes of that too much i have also not seen many changes to blemishes. 


004. Overall i think the BB cream is perfect if you like the look of low coverage it is light and blends in very well, it is ideal for everyday use and also gives your skin a chance to breath. One downfall i would have is there are only two shades light and medium, i purchased the light and it went well with my skin but for someone that has a paler complexion i think would find it too dark.

The Weeknd.






001. The first few pictures are of an outfit i wore the other day to work, the photos don't really do it justice (or me) but i really did like it especially as it was a random chuck on. I had been itching to wear this Primark bargain and as soon as i saw the sun out i jumped at the opportunity! Unfortunately my only source of camera at the moment is an iPhone boo :(, currently saving to get an SLR then i can go snap happy!

002. The other two photos are of an outfit i wore out the other night, again not the best but you can get the idea. I got these red jeans on my Topshop uniform a few weeks back i was a bit hesitant at first thinking they would be hard to pair tops and shoes with but i have been proven wrong, they are perfect to brighten up an outfit! The last photo is my new "must have" i have been pining over one of these tops for ages now and then always seem to be sold out *sigh*.

003. Last but not least is the explanation of my miss spelt title, it is in fact in dedication of my new favourite artist The Weeknd. I have been listening to him for a while now and im hooked, obsessed, gripped, captivated, fixated you name it!

Ye ole Margate.

- Birthday card - Pretty tea sets - Tea with my mummy dear - Tea and cup cakes - Cupcake - Boutique - Potential buy - Jewellery - Primark shirt - Primark top - Baby book - Snacks with my cousin - 

001. Had a random trip to Margate today with my mum cousin and her little one, Margate has been known as a dump for  long time but certain parts are really starting to pick up! There are some lovely nicknack shops and a few vinatge clothes shops. My favourite place is the cup cake shop (obviously), there are so many to choose from and some lovely little bits you can buy from there.

002. I didn't end up buying the playsuit in the end, was umming over it so decided to think about it. I fell in love with the top half but wasn't to keen on the design on the shorts, wanted to just cut them off!

003. I did buy these two tops from Primark, the shirt im still undecided if i am keeping but the white top i fell in love with! For £10 i couldn't resist, with the amount you would pay in other stores and the summer coming up i couldn't say no.
