WHAT HAVE I BEEN UP TO?

| Snuggles with my chums | Photo shoot | Easter bunny | Starbucks | My super blonde hair | Muddy wellies | 
| View from my window | Village walk | OOTD | Pandora ring I really want (hint) | Steam Train at the station | Pizza | 
This photograph is literally my favourite photograph ever! As soon as I bought the vogue issue with it in (Vogue America March 2013) 
I instantly fell in love with it. As a fashion Photography student I see images all the time yet there's something about this image that I really like. 

I have continued to get on with uni work and finished a couple of bits. I have no more uni as such anymore, just deadlines now till summer. Im going back to my uni house on  tuesday to carry on working as I had to leave some work there -  Its really hard carrying sketch books on a train! 
Next week Im working, going shopping and catching up on everything, Hopefully the weather will get better - although I doubt it will!

Hope you've all had a lovely Easter

HOLIDAY HAUL

 The weather has well and truly put a downer on my mood, so as I'm home I thought I would take the opportunity to go shopping with my mum. I have been building up my little holiday collection for a while now and finally think I have enough. I think there's sill a couple more things I need either to arive or order then i'm done! 
None of this stuff is too expensive, I am going to Zante so I doubt any of this is going to stay decent for long. The majority of it has come from primark and H&M. I really love H&M for their basic range, its such good quality for the price too. 
As I put in my last post i've been trying to find some ray bans however found these pretty good copies from primark for £1. I can't complain however my mission to find cheap real ones continues! 
I also have stocked up on my mini toiletries, I don't really need these as I'm taking a suitcase, but I'm only going for a week so don't really need to bring massive bottles with me, plus I think they're so much more cute the smaller they are, just me?
I really need the sunshine to come out or i might just move to another country! 

Hope you all have a lovely easter

SUMMER BASIC WISH LIST

Summer should be around the corner, although it doesn't look like its happening anytime soon. Even so, I'm going on holiday in 80 days and am desperately needed to stock up on some summer basics. Most of these items are relatively cheep or an investment piece. Im on the mission to find some cheep ray bans, if anyone could suggest links that would be fab!

With my holiday not far away and the end of my 2nd uni year coming around pretty quickly (scary stuff!) I need to get cracking with my shopping ready hopefully for the sun! 

Have you gone summer shopping recently?

FOLLOW ME ON BLOGLOVIN

As you have all probably heard by now, Google Reader is closing down in July I think, which means that probably GFC will follow. 
This sort of sucks for us bloggers as it means we loose our followers and more importantly our reading list.

If you want to keep following my blog you can on Bloglovin by clicking HERE.
Please follow me or let me know so I can start following all of you too.

.  .  .

On a brighter note, I did a photo shoot for my course this week, I think it went really well and so pleased with my images. With the help from my two beautiful assistants Livvy and Jenny it went smoothly, despite the freezing weather! 

Thank you Livvy for the 'behind the scenes' pictures. We look so pro! 

Hope you've all had a lovely week!

WHITE SUMMER DRESS


| Dress Newlook Cameo Rose £10 Sale | Shoes ASOS £15 Sale | Photographs Jenny |
I know its crazy to be showing you a summer dress whilst the weather is like this but I did buy this with summer and holidays in mind. Im so unorganised I need to plan for summer otherwise it'll get hot and i'll have nothing to wear! 
I picked up this beauty from Newlook in one of their ranges. I was a little worried about buying a white dress, but I love the fit and texture of it. Its thick so its not see though and I love the almost texture of it. The rose flower pattern adds a touch of class to it. I teamed it up with my tan heels from ASOS. They are always a winner for dresses like this. I think this would be perfect for weddings, dates or that special occasion. 
The weather has proper confused me at the moment, I packed up all my winter clothes for a reason! I guess its back with the gloves, scarves and coats for me until it starts being Spring time.

Have you started summer shopping yet?

LUSH TOP

| Top Lush T-shirts* |
White tops are a must for summer and graphic print is around so much recently. When I got the opportunity to review these tops I was so glad I did. I was pleasantly surprised that the top was thick - unlike most white tops that are way too see trough. I really like the type on it. It adds a nice edge to the white tee look. It adds a more personal touch to it. I wear this with jeans, shorts and it looks so good tucked into disco pants, I rolled the sleeves up for a more edgy look today. 
You can find their tops Online Here, Facebook Here and Twitter Here

HOME OOTD

| Top Primark £6 | Shoes Topshop £15 | Bag Social Discount Network £19 | Umbrella Primark £2 |

This weekend I went home to see my Mum and have a chilled out weekend. Its so nice to be able to go home and not think about everything I normally have to at uni. I didn't really do much apart from a shopping trip and eating good food with my family. I wore this outfit to town (with a coat on). I really like the simplicity of the outfit and the pop of colour in the bag. I had to show you my umbrella because the print matches my shoes and I love the frills around the edge! 
Im back at uni for a week then off again for Easter.

Hope you all had a lovely weekend
p.s Thank you mum for taking my picture!

FEBRUARY HAUL

As I think I've mentioned in almost every post recently, I have been in super uni mode. Thankfully a deadline has been extended so I can relax a tad, but the majority of my easter break will consist of work, work and probably more work (so unfair) This month I have been able to do a little shopping in my breaks, mainly summer clothes because I'm so looking forward to a holiday with my girlies! 
| Jeans H&M £15 | Top Topshop £10 | Top Hollister £6.50 Sale | Bikini Topshop £30 |
I am really enjoying wearing these jeans, I think they're so different and super comfy! I think they're going to be a great piece to wear over spring with a white tee. The two crop tops are mainly to wear in summer with shorts but I have worn the grey one with disco pants on a night out which I really like. This Bikini was in a recent wish list and I'm so glad I bought it, the fit is amazing, I love the style and the colours are amazing. This is perfect for my trip to Zante! 
| Bag Social Discount £19.99 | Makeup bag TKmax £5 | Bourjois Paris Volume mascara £5.99 Offer | La Roche-Posay Effaclar Mat £13 | Body Shop Born Lippy Watermelon Gift | OPI Nothin' Mousie 'Bout It £5 |
This bag I recently bought from Social discount Network, this site defiantly worth a look. I love the colour and style. It seems to go with everything I wear at the moment, and is a nice break from my massive Zara shopper bag.
This makeup bag was bought knowing I'm going home soon and holiday soon so i need a nice compact makeup bag to keep everything secure. I saw this in TKmax reduced and I really like the mock ostrich effect, for £5 you cant really go wrong. 
The mascara was on offer in superdrug and I bought it purely because it was cheeper than my normal mascara (soap and glory) however, It has become my new favourite. I really like the application and brush, my eyelashes seem to be nicely separated and fanned out. Im defiantly going to purchase this again. 
I have heard a few reviews on the Effaclar Mat and I'm hoping it works on my skin, I want perfect skin for holiday, fingers crossed! and finally this OPI nail varnish is beautiful! I bought it off Pasha's Fashion blog (HERE) blog sales she's got at the moment, its defiantly worth a look. 

Phew, that was a long post. Hopefully I'll be posting a few ootd's and reviews on these products soon. 
Hope you've all had a lovely week!

FEBRUARY IN PHOTOS

As you've probably guessed from my lack of posts, I haven't had much time to blog as much as I've liked. I haven't really had much time to do anything recently. I feel February has gone by too fast. I have deadlines before easter and after so I'm going to have to get my head down probably for the next month too. I am planning on taking a few OOTD next week and hoping to have a studio session for my Uni course the week after. Heres what i've been getting up to anyways -
| I love unicorns | We doodle too much in lectures | Bacon bagels for breakfast | 4 pics 1 word | Galaxy print is the way forward | Swan from my walk
|Celeb boutique package | Favourite pic from my blog | Im being too cool | Demolished nandos | Addicted to sims | We still doodle in lectures | My disco pants ootd | Work work work | The coolest guy ever.. |

Don't you feel like Februarys gone fast?

Topshop is a store that never fails to have something I like. I am really loving what Topshop has to offer at the moment, they seem to have a good range of everything. Here a a few things that have taken my attention. My favourite from below is the bikini, I think its such a beautiful pattern and shape.
