Blazers!!
I know they look it but these are not actually the same colour!! The low blazers are more a blue than grey...
Scrummy Food!!!
Was sooooo stuffed after this!
Hey lovelies!! How are you all?
Hope you had a fabulous week and weekend.
I know I haven't posted for a few days but that's because I was super busy before having Friday off work to go to Edinburgh for the weekend.
I've never been before but I really...

No, but it's not all bad at all. Some of you may not be familiar with this tan - as it says on the bottle, it's exclusive to Tesco and it is only £5.99.
Pros
It is tinted so you can easily see where it has been applied.
The initial moisture of the product dries relatively quickly.
It doesn't smell as much as some of my other fake tans.
Cons
It is difficult to rub in without feeling you have left it streaky.
The colour...
Asos Aggie Tan Boot £22 here (<---link)
So I am still no closer to finding a dress for the ball. And I just don't want to have to go trying a load on. Plus I am more concerned with what I can wear during the rubbish English weather!!
I didn't sleep very well last night so I was tired and miserable today. Lack of sleep and me do not go well. So I bought some boots. Why not. I am off to Edinburgh for...

Hey Lovelies,
So it's that time of year again when I obsess about what to wear to the summer ball.
I always look forward to it but the close I get the more I panic. The main problem is that I am a short girl with a big chest for my frame so usually long dresses are too long and ill fitting on me. So I steer clear of them.
I do however still love the idea of a proper ball dress. Usually I wear cocktail dresses and as much as...

Purchase for £17.50 here
As most of you now know, naturally my hair is pretty curly and because I no longer have it chemically straightened, it's a bit of a battle to wear it straight.
It takes a good hair cut, lots of products, and a good initial blow dry.
You see, if I straighten my hair from curly, or just blast dry and then straighten it my hair just looks dry and flat. Not a look I am going for - obvs.
Therefore...

I've recently seen on a couple of blogs that some of you girlies are using shampoos and conditioners from the Organix range so when I spotted a travel size version in Boots last week I thought I would give them a try.
I have washed and blow dried straight and washed and left to dry naturally curly also.
I found that the shampoo doesn't lather as much as others I have but that it will lather up after a bit of hard work. The...

I am literally going to start this by saying the following...
THIS IS AMAZING
Some of you might remember last year when I had this done and reviewed on YouTube and here (<----link). What you will remember is that I was really disappointed with this. The results were not impressive.
This time however I absolutely LOVE the results. It's like what they look like after I spend 5 minutes curling them from straight...

Blessedly Rich LipglassOrange Tempera Lipglass
I don't know why but I am presently loving MAC Lipglasses.
I hadn't really been into them before - I am more of a lipstick girl really because I hate the whole hair stuck to my lipgloss look but having rediscovered some previous purchases and also recently purchasing the beautiful Hey Sailor Orange Tempera I am hooked!!!
What I love is that just like their lipsticks, MAC's colours...

So there is nothing like getting your nails done to cheer you up when you're feeling ill.The difficulty this time though was what colour to have - I mean the weather is vile so a summery one is out but then I didn't want a dark wintery one either!So I opted for what I like to call 'Lady' nails! A lovely French polish. It was a teeny bit more expensive but only by £3.Hoping that I don't get bored of this one! The pink I had last time got annoying...

Top - Warehouse £10 (sale)
Shorts - Therapy £35
So recently I have been feeling horrendous - bad cold, non-stop coughing and generally fed up.
Sadly I still feel pretty much the same and after a 10th night of no sleep I am just glad it's nearly weekend so I can do nothing again.
I hope I am ok for next week though as I am going to see Kanye West and Jay Z!! Better not be ill for that.
Anyway , do...

I don't know about you ladies but dry shampoo is like my lifeline!No one has time to wash their hair every day unless they have super manageable hair and lots of time I feel. That's not to say your hair doesn't get a bit ikky the day after your wash. It's so tough being a girl because you want to make sure you look clean etc, but life doesn't always allow for it, so this is where the dry shampoo comes in.Usually I use Bastise or Tresemme, but I thought...

Purchase at Boots (link) for £4.99Every now and then I like to raid the drugstore makeup isles and go bargain hunting. Technically, it's only a bargain if a product is good, but there is something about going to all the stands and picking up a load of different items for a lot less than you would in Selfridges for example.So not so long ago I did just that and this primer was one of the items I came away with.I do like the idea of primers,...
