Summer ♥

Hey huns!
So for me, today is officially summer! All exams are DONE and I am ready to chill and have fun. (rhyming by accident! :P ) So I just want to do a wee post on summer etc. I am so excited because summer means more time to blog make videos and have fun!


So this summer I am dying my ends this colour of blue! I am so excited but I'm dying it after I come back from holidays because the sun would bleach it.

Little River

Hello loves!  I hope your Memorial Day was great!  I certainly enjoyed the long, warm weekend.  I leave for San Francisco tomorrow for work (so excited!), and decided to leave you with this number before I left.  Recently I spent some family time with my husband, daddy and step-mom in Little River.  I wore this and I absolutely love these pants...they are comfortable and a little funky.  My style is very eclectic and I love wearing things that are a little different sometimes. Would you wear something like this??



I decided to keep my jewelry simple since the pants already brought so much to the outfit. I didn't want it to be too busy.

A Post for Summer!

Hey Huns!
The summer holidays are fast approaching 
- as in five more days! - 
and I am super excited! I am going to try and do LOADS this summer with my friends and family. I can't wait. Summer to me means more blogs, longer days, sleeping in, no school, shorts and tshirts and all that jazzy stuff. Summer along with Christmas is by far my favourite time of the year, and it definitely helps that we're off to enjoy it.

So have you got any great plans for summer? Comment below I love to hear them. :)
Good luck with exams!

His Style

Today I thought I would showcase my husband's style.  I will periodically do this, just to mix things up a little here on the blog.  My husband loves nothing more than to be wearing basketball shorts, sneakers, and a hat, but that doesn't mean he can't bring it on when going out.  This was before dinner one evening...you may remember that post Here.  He was very reluctant to take these pictures, but I convinced him and here we are!  How involved is your man in your blogging adventures?

Blogging & Exams

Just a quick post considering it is a monday night and I should be doing my Buddha project. But anyway!
So this weekend is the final weekend before exams! YAY!

But this weekend is also going to be a long tedious stressing weekend full of study and revision. I have a scheduled post, but if I don't reply to your comments right away, I will! But it may be like 12am or something.... 
I'll say this again, but really good luck with exams, whether its just for 1st or 2nd year, or your JC or GCSE's!

The Small Bloggers Network

Hey huns!
I've set up a new blog calle The Small Bloggers Network which is, as the name implies, for small bloggers. It's super easy to join and there will be a feautured blogger every week starting in June. I just think that it can be difficult to get more followers and this would be a good way to bring all small bloggers together into a network.

MWAH!

Thoughts on Colour Tattoos

Hey Huns!
Ok, a review for yous today on the Maybelline Colour Tattoos. I have two, one in "Turquoise Forever" and the other in "Eternal Gold". The blue is so shimmery and pretty, but I find it a bit hard to wear if I'm totally honest. I think I might use it more in the summer and could achieve making it look ok with a blue smoky eye with it as the base. The gold however, is so easy to wear! It's such a pretty shimmery colour too, and isn't too in-your-face so I've been able to wear it to school. It's like my Catrice cream eyeshadow, but lighter. I've been wanting to try out both for one look, but haven't had time. I might post something like that over summer?
Overall as cream eyeshadows go, they have great stay, but the brighter colours can be hard to wear. Hope you enjoyed, will be posting next week so until then, BYEEEEEE!

What I Wore to Work Wednesday

Hello loves!  I am writing to you from San Francisco, but this is from work a couple of weeks ago.  This dress was comfortable and cute.  Wedges are great for the office because they're usually more comfortable than heels, but I still like to take a pair of flats just in case. What do you carry to work for mid-day style changes??

What I Wore to Work Wednesday

Good Morning Loves!  Welcome to ~What I Wore to Work Wednesday~.  I love my clothes and really couldn't stand to think that I would only wear anything once.  I love taking pieces that I have already worn and recreating with other pieces for a completely new look.  I think you get the most for your  money that way...and honestly, I get hyped up when I can use my creativity for something new with all of my current items.  How do you mix previously worn pieces?

Polka Dots


Good Morning!  I don't know about you, but I am loving mint this season!  I have added several pieces to my wardrobe recently.  Even though Pantone's color of the year is emerald, I feel that the true colors of the year (or at least for spring) are mints, bright pinks, corals, and turquoise.  How are you incorporating mint into your wardrobe?

Mint

Happy Monday!  I hope your weekend was fabulous...mine was!  I really enjoyed Mother's Day, as I got to spend it eating Mexican inspired food and playing volleyball with my mom and our side of the family, then I got to spend the rest of it with Justin's mom and family, eating steaks and enjoying the nice weather.  How did you spend Mother's Day?

From Day to Evening

Hello loves!  I love outfits that can serve multiple purposes, like this one that can transition from day to evening.  It's probably a little more evening than day, but I still wore this to work and thought that it would look great for dinner too!  Before putting it on, I didn't realize how dressy it would look.  Don't you just love it when random outfits turn out to be even better than you imagined?!?  Anyway, how do you style outfits for a transition from day to evening?

♥Summer Wishlist♥

Hey huns! 
I think I've mentioned how excited I am for summer, and i've made a quick wishlist :)

  1. Benefit Bella Bamba Blush: Its coral, and coral is such a summery collour. LOVE
  2. Floral Skater Skirt: I am OBSESSED with florals! They are just so pretty and girly, and this one is perfect from summer. Also, the mint would really bring out a tan!
  3. Boi-ing: its benefit, I love benefit, so yeah :P
  4. Dweeb: Meredith Foster aka Stilababe09 has this and ever since I've loved it because it isn't as popular than the geek ones, but is still that style.
  5. Colour Tattoos: I LOVE the two I have! 
  6. Hunter Green Skirt: Ever since Bridget Mendler wore one like this in her video for Ready Or Not, I love them!
  7. Bowler Hat: obsessed with these for some reason.
  8. Aztec Shorts: ALL over Wanelo. Do they even sell these?
  9. Benefit Hello Flawless Powder: I've heard so many good things about this powder.
  10. Maybelline Blush: Cream Blushes always give a dewy look & my body shop one is too awkward to use.
  11. This is Maybellines version of Revlon Lip Butters. They haven't released them yet here.
  12. Lindsay (Beautybaby44) talked about this and posted photos on instagram before.
  13. Revlon Lip Butters: I have one and its so moisturising! I would like to try a coral colour for summer.
  14. I have 2, but by the end of the summer I'll probably have the whole collection.
  15. Keds: they're like Vans, but the sole is thinner and they have so many cute patterns! Taylor Swift endorses them.
  16. I would like to try this! See if they work or not :)

So that was a quick post, but it was so fun putting together that wishlist!
Ok, now its YOUR TURN! make a wishlist (with or without pics) and comment below when you do! Happy wishing!
MWAH! :*

Haul - Topshop, H&M and more!


Hey huns!
So I decided as it was a long weekend that I would make a video for my haul. On Saturday, we went to my nearest city (guess haha!) And I went to Boots, Topshop, H&M, Benefit and The Body Shop. I got some lovely things for summer and now that I thought would be nice to share with you as I love hauls as well!




(By the way, my brother said I was speaking in a bit of an American accent, so please tell me if I am!!!)

Hope you enjoyed, and there will be another video soon!
