#OOTD

Aldo shoes £32

Primark blouse £12

Leather leggings H&M £7.99

Sequin Jacket Ebay £35

Handbag Primark £3

Spike Necklace Kitsch-Kouture (click here) £4.90

So, this is my first 'OOTD' post! This is what I wore last night for drinks with the BF.  You can see the results of my DIY L'oreal ombre kit which I did yesterday afternoon.  It was actually much easier than I thought and I'm so pleased with the results considering I used to pay loads to get this done in the hairdressers! I would definitely recommend it as it was a bargain at only £6, get it here.

I'm not going to lie, I do not feel on top form today! I have been in bed most of the day actually, I think I took the Valentine's celebrations a little too far on the vodka front.  Ah well, its the weekend!  Speaking of vodka,I got a rather strong 40% bottle as an extra little present from the BF.  But this is not ordinary vodka, it's called 'Pinky' and its actually pink! It says its botanical vodka, whatever that means, and its infused with violets, rose petals and ten other botanical s! Its all very fancy and such a cute bottle, check it out....

Don't be fooled by the cute packaging though, as this vodka packs a punch.  Hence why I am so fragile today!  I'm going to have a nice cosy night on the couch watching films...Bliss.

Hope you are having a fabulous (and less hungover) weekend!

#HappyValentinesDay

The day of love is upon us, I hope Cupids arrows have found their way to all your hearts!  Today is the day when couples are loved up and singles are shoved aside!  Well fear not singletons you don't need a partner, for I have fallen in love with skater skirts this month and you can too!  Check out 'Missguided's' fab range which are all under £20!!

perfect for a night out!

Daytime Skater skirt

Dropped waist skater skirt

Casual daytime look

Perfect for day to night look!

I'm obsessed with this look, who knew that skater skirts could be so versatile?  I have a few skater skirts now and I would say that since I have a curvy/hourglass figure its better to wear skater skirts with fewer pleats.  

Anyway I'm so excited for the weekend, I'm off tomorrow so I'll be doing my DIY ombre hair!  Fingers crossed it goes well otherwise ill be going out for my valentines night with horrendous hair!!  I'll definitely be putting pictures up in my next blogpost anyway so you'll be able to see the results!

I hope you all have a fabulous weekend! 

#PancakeDay

Whoever invented Pancake day is an absolute genius! I've been making lots of jewellery today so was really looking forward to some yummy pancakes with sugar and lemon this evening! Perhaps I shouldn't have eaten five considering I'm meant to be on a diet, but what the hell, its only once a year!

I was off work today, so I decided to do a bit of shopping.  I really fancy getting ombre hair again but don't have the funds at the moment so I decided to buy the L'oreal DIY ombre kit for £6 from boots.  I'm going to do it on Thursday night so I shall definitely do a review post on here!  I also bought Barry M's new 'Gelly - High shine' Nail polish in 'satsuma' (£3, Superdrug) so I'll be doing a review on that too.

I love the pieces that I made today and I think that they are perfect accessories to any Spring/Summer 2013 outfit.  

I hope you like the new pieces, to purchase any of my pieces click here

I'm really getting into blogging now and would love to follow others, so if you leave me a comment ill definitely check out your blog! 

Night Night.

#Shoppingonashoelace

What a busy weekend this has been! I drove to Sunderland to visit family and took my chance to hit the North Easts shops! I didn't have lots to spend, because pay day isn't for a while and I'm STILL recovering from all the Christmas spending, but I had some essentials which I could no longer survive without! 

First stop was Debenhams, where I headed straight to the amazing Clinique counter and bought anti-blemish clarifying lotion (200ml) for £17 and anti-blemish cleansing foam (125ml) for £14.  The two items are my skincare necessities, I'm not spotty but I get the odd blemish and I find that this Clinique duo really keeps these at bay.  I use them both morning and night, first the facial wash then the clarifying lotion which is is used like a toner on cotton wool.

Anyway, Since I bought two products I was given this cute clinique tin full of goodies for FREE!  The set contained a full size lipstick in a natural glossy pink, a full size 'all about eyes' cream (worth £24!!) and tester sized liquid facial soap, mascara, eye shadow quad and UV sun damage corrector.  I was amazed how good this deal!

Then it was on to one of my favourite shops for a bargain...Primark! I ended up getting a loose white letter print blouse £12 (pictured) and maroon leather leggings in the sale for £7. I've not put a  picture of the leggings on because they look absolutely absurd on the hanger but I swear they are so nice on!  That's once you've fought like a maniac to get them on, but hey, that the nature of the leathery beast!  I'm definitely going to wear both items on Friday for valentines celebrations with the BF.  So I promise ill put picture up then!

Aside from shopping, I've also been working on my Kitsch-Kouture jewellery.  Over the weekend I got several new pieces in, one of which is the sweet wish bone necklace (£3.50).  All new pieces will be going on-line tomorrow. 

click here to shop for Kitsch-Kouture products on ASOS Marketplace!

So that was my weekend, but now it's Sunday BOO!  However, on the plus side this week we can look forward to Pancake day on Tuesday YUMMY and Valentines day on Thursday so its not all bad! 

Hope you all had a fabulous weekend!

I cannot describe these shoes as anything other than perfection! The cute floral accents are so feminine and the colours are bang on trend and ideal for summer.  I'd better get saving, it'll probably take me from now till summer to gather the funds to purchase my first pair of these beauties! 

Hope you love them as much as I do

#ShoeLove

I love shoes! I've been looking at the Spring 2013 collections and I've seen two contrasting trends, which I'm equally obsessed with.... Pointed courts and strappy sandals!

However you don't need to spend the earth to stay on trend so I decided to do a post about the top 5 High street pointed courts and top 5 High street strappy sandals! 

                                                                I hope you enjoy!

Pointed courts have been spotted all over the Spring fashions shows!

Strappy sandals have proven popular amongst many designers in Spring


Top 5 Pointed Court shoes

                                                         5. Kurt Gieger: £120

                                                         4. Dune £60

                                                         3. New Look £69.99 

                                                         2. ASOS £45

                                                         1.  ASOS £30

How amazing are the ASOS winners and what a bargain at only £30! ASOS have a great range of shoes at the moment, I could have literally got the whole top 5 from there! Plus they have free delivery and returns...Winner!

I cant wait to rock some pointed courts with skinny jeans for a casual look and black cigarette pants for a chic evening look!

Top 5 Strappy Sandals

                                                             5. River Island £65

                                                             4. ASOS £42

                                                             3. ASOS £45

                                                             2. ASOS £75

                                                             1. Topshop £60

As I said before, ASOS have ridiculously amazing shoes at the moment, hence why 3 out of 5 of the best strappy's are ASOS!  

I have to say the clear front runner of both lists are the Topshop Leopard print beauties.  This is because they look very similar to one of Charlotte Olympia's designs who is my new footwear designer. They are literally huge right now, many celebs are opting for a chic pair of Charlotte Olympia's and the Laboutins are being left in the closet... Check out the real deal below, they can be yours for a cool £1,250!!!

Oh God I'm so obsessed with Charlotte Olympia, I've decided that my next post will be dedicated to her fabulous designs! they are absolutely stunning! 

Night Night, Hope you all have sweet shoe dreams...
