Its been awhile...

Although it looks as if I've played around with the saturation in this pic. I haven't  I just seriously overloaded  with the fake tan- L'Oreal sublime in case you wanted to know. 

It's been literally forever since I last done an outfit post. I have been taking pictures but I just haven't got round to posting them. Bad blogger face :( 

So this is what I wore to my niece's 1st Birthday shindig last week, and I really liked it. Yes, they really are 100 denier tights that I'm wearing, and yes I really needed to wear them. It. was. that.cold! 

My top and skirt is from Primark and I needed to go the size bigger in my top to fit in my bust which is a real shame because I felt my normal size showed off my waist more. But its still pretty all the same. The skirt, however, was a pain in the butt! It creased a peach especially after jumping in a ball swamp with two 1 year olds.As the day went on I got some very disapproving looks from my gran who's pet hate is creased clothes. So just a heads up for those considering buying this skirt. 

Finally, I'm showcasing my new shoes from H&M and they will feature in much of my summer outfits cause I'm in love! But!!! I purchased them at full retail price in the shop but when I got home I discovered they were more than half price in the sale on the internet. Does anyone know if I'm within my rights of being refunded the difference? 

Top: Primark 

Skirt : Primark 

Shoes: H&M 

Hair bow: H&M 

Unfortunately, I'm off to work now but I hope you all have a great day whatever your up to!

My life in Picture # 3.

Hey guys,

Its been awhile therefore I bring you a visual snapshot of my life since we last spoke.

Well, in Scotland its mostly rained. Above was the outlook for when my friend and I decided to screw the weather and go out for 90 minute walk. At least the chat was good! 

 I have got tonnes of shorts and frilly skirts and floaty dresses all hanging in my wardrobe anxiously waiting to be aired out in public. Unfortunately, due to the weather ( see pic above) its only been my nails that have had an injection of summer if a little over-the-top hehe! 

My friend who's started up a blog (who doesn't yet know I've got a blog- I will tell her soon I promise!) asked me to do pose for some pics for her. And this is some the result. I'm not going to go as far and state that I have a new found respect for models, but 'by heck!' It was a lot harder than I anticipated. And I hate seeing pictures of me without my cheesy grin for a security blanket. 

Done my good dead for the summer and gave blood, and rewarded myself (the day after) with some cocktails. 

Finally, the sun did come out to play for all of 48 hours and lucky me it was on my days off so the boy and I packed up and went back to nature. Loved, Loved Laaaaaved ittt! 

And finally, I leave you with some sheep....

Barry M 307 'lemon' 

Hi there Girlies, 

So hands up- who's still in bed whilst reading this post. What do you mean- Bank Holidays aren't brilliant excuses to have a duvet day and catch up on all your fave blogs- Well I never! ;D 

I've got a flurry of social engagements coming up in the next few weeks, so I've been trying to pick out what I'm going to wear to all of them. I've counted out that I have at least 25 dresses in my wardrobe that have never been worn out with the friends that I'm going to all these parties with. I think its high time these dresses got dusted  down and and some airing out and about in Glasgow.  

Thursday kicks everything off in a messy post exams- slash-birthday night out at one of the very studenty places in Glasgow. This renders all my pretty, floaty, delicate dresses that I wanna wear out the window. And makes anything disposable and made from Primark in. So I've plumped for a floral ditzy playsuit instead and it got me thinking about what to wear on my nails for said night out.  

I bought this Barry M number a few weeks ago (when I still had money) and thought it would do the job. Pop colour- check, cheap- check, from reliable brand- check. 

Unfortunately, its not quite what I'm after...

Hmmm... I don't know but does anyone else think it looks as if I've got splashes of sick on my nails? Just me then. For a 'lemon' colour it comes out more saffron than I would have liked. Also, it took a decent three sized coats to get a good coverage but I honestly can't remember the last time I had to do that with any of my other cheapo nail polishes. 

Meh, just another nail polish to get flung into my ever expanding collection, never to see the light of day again! 

Or am I being too harsh?

I just spend my last dime...

Overdraft limit= £1500  Current Overdraft status= £1499.12 

Payday= Tuesday
 which all equates to FML! 

Whoops I seemed to have spent all my wages and now have the grand sum total of 88 pence to do me til Tuesday. Never has a song summed up my life more than This!

Anywayz, its not all doom and gloom look at what I got with my last dime! 

I had been considering shelling out 38 pounds on these Topshop jeans but when I popped in to Primark I realised that I could get 4 jeans for the price of 1 in there. So being frugal with my money and all I opted for the more sensible option. 

It was a toss up between the pink jeans or pedal pushers but then I quickly came to my senses and thought that was a step back in fashion TOO far! Honestly, with all these denim jackets and maxi skirts around I'm starting to think I've time travelled back to 1999! 

The lemon jeans will look a lot better once I've cut that ghastly belt off. And I reckon I'm going to have to be very careful with the red ones so as to not to look all Avril Lavigne-esque. But my favourite pair out of all of them has to be the fab high waisted maroon jeans. The pic honestly doesn't do it any favours, but I had a pair similar to them from Topshop yonks ago and I wore them to death one Winter. I'll probably do an outfit post in them soon but they'll be worn much more when Autumn comes around and I'll wear them with rich berry shades and a caramel floppy hat (Hat to be worn inside obviously. I am, like many a blogger still not confident enough to wear a humoungous hat outdoors) 

So after Primark I popped into my local Watt Brothers store just for a wander and came out with SlimShot down from £16.99 to £6.99. This was an impulse purchase inspired by how well Jess has been doing on her Rodial crash diet sticks. I'll let you know how I get on. 

Also bought from Watt Brothers was Ponds Cold Cream, as I've recently become averse to using water on my skin at night, and Garnier's Body Summer gradual tan. The only other graduated tan I've used was the Johnson one when it first came out and it was awful, but I keep hearing good things about this one so I'm gonna give it a go. Last item on the pic below is my beloved Bobbi Brown corrector. Which I love and will put a review up soon. 

Finally, the pic above shows the only thing I've bought this week which I've regretted buying. I'm doing up my room and wanted bunting hanging from my wall. I  saw this on ebay for the bargaintastic price of £7 quid but didn't realise until it arrived yesterday that its minature in size. Aww seriously my life is just a continuum of jumping from one fuck up to the next. 

So I'm gonna go now as I've got tonnes of blogs to catch up on. Hope everyone is well and I'm really gonna try my best to blog as much as I can this week. 

Until next time. Peace out xxx
