#Summer Garden Party

Summer is hopefully definately on its way now, this beautiful sun had better last a few weeks and warm up!  Our Student Union have anounced a garden party for the beggining of June,  so being a typical gal, i've already started eyeing up a few dress online.. i've been addicted to ASOS atm, im finding everything i see i fall in love with. its not great when your bank balance isnt at it's healthiest right now. ooops!

But these are a few of the dresses which really caught my eye and the lime green Love Dress with a wrap front is definatley top of my wish list! 

#Topshop Want - blue blue blue

                     

 

quick saturday night topshop window shop and i come across these beautiful dresses! My favourite is the neon tie dye mini dress, its beutiful!  The 3 dress price from £29 - £42, i think way student loan arrives in 2 weeks i have some serious shopping to be done!

LFW must haves!

A university trip up to London Fashion Week is fastly approaching and my wardrobe is still looking seriously rubbish. boooo! so this morning whilst recovering from my night out i decided to indulge in a few wardrobe essentials... realistically leaving me with £20 for the rest of the week.. ok. just a few essentials i told myself so black jeggings and a denim shirt are definate essentials!  but then i go and do what i do to myself everytime.. late night Topshop browse.  why do topshop have to stock such nice dresses, why? its not like i can afford to buy one, so why oh why? ahhhh :(

These dresses are just so beautiful! and perf' for spring/summer and so easy to wear especially being in and out of uni constantly. just trying to convince myself that buying at least one of these dresses would be an investement into my super floral wardrobe...

Much Love

long time no speak!!

i feel ashamed at the serious lack of blog posts for the past month or so! but i promise you im back and pumped for the summer :) yayy! as you probably know ive just come back from my girls holiday to magaluf, when i say just i mean 2 weeks ago.. i still have the holiday blues, i keep meaning to post my photo's but keep forgetting to save my photo's to my laptop.. sorry! (challenge for tonight!)  so my summer has officially begun, and definately started it well, by going to Ponty's Big Weekend yesterday and seeing my boy Olly Murs! he definately didn't let me down :) and of course this beautiful weather we're now getting is definately helping me get over my holiday blues!!

New Look: Holiday Wants!

So my holiday is next week! yess next week!! it only feels like a couple of days ago i was telling you it was 2 months away! jeeeeze, how time flies ayy.  well i suppose for a change im kind of prepared for once, i have all my clothes sorted, just an going out bag and toiletries to get. phewwww! i've promised myself that im not going to take any heels so these beautiful wedges from New Look are out of the window!! but they're just sooooo pretty :(  however i do have a New Look Gift Card which i had for my birthday, and a 20% off voucher, so one of these bags and the hair band is total must!! i am obsessed with dipped hem at the moment, they're just soo easy to wear! and slot perfectly into my wardrobe...  so i get the absolute shit ripped out of me from the girls for this, but factor 50 sun block is an absolute necessity for me! i have ginger skin and it doesn't see the sun much, so casper needs protecting! protect and bronze is an absolute god send for me, i actually tan whilst using it!! woooo :) any of you have fair skin, and high factors are a must? it sucks, but better to be safe than sorry!

Topshop Wishlist!

i've had my eye out for a coloured blazer for a while now, & im in need of one by the middle of may.  so one of my daily online window shops finally took its toll, in finding several in the much loved Topshop!  i don't often shop in this store as i often find some of the items are slightly out of my price range.  however, im thinking this blazer will be more an investment rather than a seasonal fling. my ultimate fave it the coral blazer, but being a full on ginge, coral isnt often the best shade for myself :( i do love the pale blue blazer, which i think would be quite inter-changable within my wardrobe :) hey presto, i think we're onto a winner!! wooooooo! any of you gals come across any summer blazers recently?

Bikini Blunders..

so its that time of year again where everyone's new years resolutions are totally out of the window,  but now the summer season is fastly approaching everyone's thinking about their bikini bodies? yeaah?  im exactly the same!! the thought of swimwear shopping actually brings a lump to my throat and the thought of trying on bikinis for a day trying to find the "right one" at a reasonable price makes me want to cry in a corner and hibernate till winter!  if you dolls are anything like me you'll be thinking the exact same thing.  but on the weekend me and my two friends went to asda to get some food, and had a quick look in the clothes section... a quick look turning into 3 bikini tops 2 bra's and a takeaway chow mein!  

George @ Asda Swimwear!

i only bought 1 of the bikini's as i am super low on dollar at the moment and it was either another bikini or starve.. im a girl who loves her food so that problem was quickly solved!  anyhow, i picked up the purple polka dot bikini!  it looked totally different on the hanger so i was totally baffled when trying it on, took a couple of braincells to get there:)  but once it was on it was like heaven in a bikini!! yess, i had fun trying on bikini's!!!!! it fitted me perfect, even with my uber difficult size, ahaa. at £12 for the set £8 top, £4 bottoms i was not leaving it there, because it would be just my luck that i'd got back in a couple of weeks just before my holiday, and they won't have my size then we're back to square one!!

im loving the rest of the George at Asda swimwear range too!  i think the zebra print with turquoise detailing one is lovely :)  would definately say its for a smaller boobied woman, but i still looove it :)  my mammy also picked me up the purple and pink "floraly", "splashed" bikini today, although im not totally loving it yet! its not quite fitting as i hoped it would, but we'll see ayy! :)  any of you ladies got any secret tips on getting decent bikini body? or know anywhere nice that does reasonable bathers?

PS. my chow mein was disgusting!! so wish i'd bought another bikini instead!!

Boohoo Dress Review

my impulse buy paid off!! i'm totally in love with this dress, its perfect :)  it arrived last week but only now i've got round to posting about it.  this dress is perfect for summer and lazy days at the beach.  just thinking about it gets me excited for my holiday!! eeek:)  the dress is just a light floral cotton with cute buttons up the centre.  i choose to leave the top two buttons undone as having them done up isn't the most flattering on me :)   it is a little short,  but when you laying by the pool or beach all day, i don't think anyone really cares.  enough of my babbling, anyone seen any nice summer dresses on the highstreet?

Summer Excitment..

i mentioned in yesterdays post about looking for my summer wardrobe already.  so seems as this weekend i've been a total slob, i thought i would have a browse on-line at clothes i cant afford :(  any how, i just came across this day dress from boohoo.  its just soo pretty!  perfect for summer nights abroad and day trips back home.  for £20 i think i might have to suffer for a couple of weeks and invest.  i must have it!!  im such a floral person, im sure about 70% of my wardrobe consists of floral items!!  

like i said i've been a total slob this weekend and am still in my dressing gown.  but now Wales have one their first match of the 6nations tournament, wooooooooo! i think its time i got myself sorted myself out and got some school work done! #challenge for the night...

Aztec Skirt Need..

i saw this skirt in-store a couple of weeks ago. and since i've been searching the RI website most days waiting to for it  become available on-line!!  i absolutely adore it, such a fun item of clothing to have in your wardrobe.  it would definitely last right through to summer as well as being suitable in these winter months, + at only £15 its a total RI bargain! we all love a good bargain.  recently i've been having a real rummage in the high street stores preparing my wardrobe for Magaluf in July.  i may have several dresses and outfits to take with me already but new clothes for a girls holiday is an absolute must!!  i might be able to treat myself to a few things after next weeks pay day... we'll see :)

this is a bit of a boring post, but when your still in your onesie because the snow has forced you to miss your open day. you result to anything! i've even got my exam prep up to date :O shock of the century!
