Cardigan**, Shoes - New Look
Belt - Poundland
Tights - Primark

Total Outfit Price: £29.99

I haven't posted an outfit in ages and it's not because I don't want to. It's because we seem to have rubbish weather at the minute and catching the sunshine and staying out of the rain is proving difficult. Roll on summer when I can photograph after 3 in the afternoon. Living on the most Eastly point in England means I see the sun first but also we are the first place to lose the sun. Not fair! 

These are my new reading glasses. I've been developing a bit of a squint, especially in the evenings and when I'm at my laptop. So they are working wonders. I was told that my eyes looked tired and stressed. Erm that may be because I am tired and stressed!

I'm feeling so ill. I took these photo's yesterday and my eyes look dead on the last photo. If I'd of taken these today it would not be pretty. Feeling terrible is an understatement.

I'm hoping to get the right mix of fashion, food and lifestyle posts. I love baking and fashion equally so I'm going to try and balance posts. I hope you guys like the balance of the two.

I'll be posting up a review on some amazing jams I've been sent as well as a post explaining how I photograph food. I think you'll be surprised in my methods.

top**, jeans**, hat, shoes - New Look necklace - Poundland

I am in love with anything Burgundy at the moment I've brought lots of things in it already! I think it's going to be the colour that is everywhere this season.

I'm really excited and a bit nervous as Dolly Peg launches tomorrow! I hope you'll be able to support us and tomorrow's blog post will be all about dolly peg, so keep your eyes peeled for that too!

Don't forget my giveaway is still going so make sure you've entered that!

Take me to Paris!

Tuesday, March 27, 2012





top, skirt - charity shop, necklace - poundland, shoes - shoezone

Total Outfit Price: £9.09

I'm channelling my inner Parisian! I really want to go to Paris this year, hopefully my student loan money will stretch that far, until then I'll just dress Parisian. I am totally inspired by befrassy.com. I suggest you go and have a look! All I need is some garlic and onions and a twiddly moustache and I am practically French! hahaha.

Feeling under pressure and exhausted at the minute. Not really too sure why, but boy, I can't wait for Easter break!

Taking these pictures seemed to take forever, I had the neighbours cat hissing at me (I love cats soo much, but this was freaky!), endless bumble bees, wasps, flies and then trying to tackle the low sun! I gave up in the end and used the fence instead!

Any way I'm off to make mini pizza's for dinner followed by my freshly baked brownies! Yummmmm!

saturday night at the movies

dress - outfit, ring - pounland - shoes - shoezone

Total Outfit Price: £16.59

My lovely little outfit! I'm off to the cinema tonight so I'm going to wear this outfit with tights and a coat. And probably boots, not high heels anyway. But I've styled this outfit to wear on a night out!

The sunshine is really nice, but horrible for photographs! It took sometime to get these photographs right.

I'm going to change things up on the blog slightly. Make things less "gimmicky". I also might not be able to post as much as I do. Uni is a bit intense at the minute so having time to blog is difficult.

Next week I have Norwich Fashion Week to look forward to. I am going to an independent designers show and I'm hoping to go to the NUCA show too. So expect to see photographs from that!

Have a great night whatever you're up to!

dress, shoes - notting hill (everythings £5), stockings - charity shop, belt - poundland, necklace - avon

Total Outfit Price: £16.12

Today's on the town for around £20 was meant for last week but due to train delays I got home a lot later than I had planned. So I saved it for today instead.

I love this dress. Perfect for going out or dressed down with cardigan and chunky tights! I love the necklace so much, I got it from Avon. When I was little (I still am!) I had an obsession with rabbits (I still do!) so this rabbit necklace seemed perfect!

I have to explain the 12p. I got the stockings 4 for 50p from a charity shop which makes them 12.5p each! What a bargain!

I hope this inspires you for your night out tonight if your going out! If not have a great night in.

I'm planning on staying in catching up on all my magazines!
