TheSundayPost #7

Sunday, 18 May 2014

Hello everyone!
Hope you've had a great week! As this post goes up I'll be on my way to the airport to start a week long holiday in Portugal!
Here is what's been going on in my life this week through the method of instagram photos!

1- Yet another photo of my little fur baby. This was his photoshoot in the garden on Wednesday haha! 
2- On Wednesday I was looking after my little cousin! This was his big boy look apparently! Little monkey! 
3- On Thursday I had a job interview. On the way home I got a banana milkshake from Mcdonald's because they make me happy! I've become seriously addicted to them! 
4- On Friday I started packing for our holiday. Do you think we have enough sun cream? Can you tell one of us is ginger? haha! 
5- I bought this hat in Primark. My boyfriend thinks it's silly but I like it! 
6- On Saturday I finished up work for 2 weeks! This was my start of holidays selfie with Smudge! 

So that's pretty much been my week! As I've mentioned I'm away next week but I've got some post scheduled so there will still be new things to read next week!

Home Sweet Home

Saturday, 17 May 2014

Hello Everyone!
Today's post is a little tour of my little house!
For those of you who don't know, I live with my boyfriend in Edinburgh, Scotland! We've been living together for nearly 2 years and have stayed in this particular house for just over a year! It's a furnished rental so a lot of the decor/furniture belongs to our landlord but I try my best to personalise it!
Sitting Room

Kitchen

Bathroom

Bedroom

So that is my little humble home! I buy most of my home decor from Ikea, B&M and Primark purely because they are cheap and as a student that's exactly what you want! Hope you've enjoyed this post! I know I like having a little nosy at people's houses haha!

Primark Haul (and others)

Thursday, 15 May 2014

Hello!
Today I headed into town to grab a few last minute items from Primark (and River Island and New Look!)
Here is what I picked up!
Elephant Vest £3
How cute is this?! I couldn't resist for such a cheap price. I just love it! 

Baseball Tee £3
This was in the sale so I grabbed it for wearing over my bikini at the pool on holiday.

Hat £2
Haha I got this purely for stopping my scalp from burning! I thought it was cute with the little cat ears. My boyfriend hates it but I don't care! 

Top £6
I have to admit, I'm a bit of a Pepsi addict! So this top suited me perfectly. I plan on wearing it for travelling on Sunday as it's nice and loose. 

Dress £15
This was my favourite purchase of the day! I fell in love with this dress, so much that I even had to wear it to photograph it! I can't wait to wear this on holiday! 

Leggings £15 from River Island
Obv not from Primark but I love these acid wash look leggings! I'm also going to wear these whilst travelling on Sunday

Necklace £5.99 from New Look
I needed some statement necklaces for jazzing up my outfits. So I decided to pick this plain silver one as it will go with most of my stuff! 

Necklace £4.99 from New Look
Then I saw this in the sale so I had to get it too! 

Hair Accessory £5 from Claire's Accessories
I've seen a few people wearing these and I think they look so cute and will look even better when I've got a nice tan and wearing my new maxi dress! 

So, that's my haul from today! Have you picked up any bargains lately?

Wardrobe Essentials

Tuesday, 13 May 2014

Hello Everyone.
Today I'm posting about what I believe to be essentials for any girl's wardrobe! I know my outfits revolve around them!
So here is my top 10 wardrobe essentials!
1. Black Heels. They can be worn to work and on nights out. Versatile!

2. Comfy jeans. I've recently developed a fondness for jeans again! I practically live in mine right now!

3. Black leggings. My other half would laugh if he saw this one. He's forever telling me to stop wearing black leggings because they are boring but I just can't stop it! They go with everything and they are so comfy!

4. A pretty party dress. Self explanatory really. You never know when a night out will arise!

5. A bright coloured scarf (or in my case 50 bright coloured scarves). I'm not joking, I really do have that many scarves! A scarf can completely change an outfit you may have worn 20 times before and are getting bored of. Just try it and see!

6. Clutch Bag. I'm a fan of a huge envelope clutch myself. Good for carrying flats on a night out.

7. A maxi skirt/dress. For when the sun decides to rear it's head.

8. A basic tee or vest. I wear basic tees so often but they are just so good for staying comfy!

9. A grey cardigan. Don't ask me why but I've got so many grey cardigans. I just love them. They go with almost anything in my wardrobe!

10. Ugg boots. Embrace your inner chav. In the winter months I live in ugg boots and I have no regrets. They are the comfiest shoes ever!

What are your wardrobe essentials?

Hello Everyone! 

I've recently become obsessed with flatform sandals, so today I'm bringing you my pick of the best ones out there! If you are short like me, these will be your best friend this summer! They are honestly the comfiest sandals ever! They are just like wearing flats (well duh! the clue is in the name!)
I love wearing maxi dresses in summer and I usually need a pair of wedges to stop them trailing the ground. However, the place I'm going on holiday to this year is full of cobbled streets which could result in a broken ankle if I wear high wedges. With these, I hope my feet will be nice and comfy and my ankles nice and un-broken!
Do you have a pair of flatforms? What do you think of them?

TheSundayPost #6

Sunday, 11 May 2014


Hey everyone! Just a little update on what I've been up to this week! 
1- After my Tax exam on Monday, I needed a little pick-me-up so my other half took me to starbucks for my favourite drink (Caramel Coffee Frappuchino)! If you haven't tried this I recommend you do! It's delicious! 
2 & 3- On wednesday we had our final exam which called for a celebration! Of course this involved wine and food! We visited a restaurant in Edinburgh called Twenty Princes Street. I'm going to do a post on our night next week so look out for that! 
4- I regularly get called the crazy cat lady so it made me giggle when there were 3 random cats in my garden this week, one of which was actually sitting at my window meowing to get in! 
5- This sums up the hillarity which was going on in my house when we should have been studying! It mostly involved videos of cats doing funny things! 
6- You may have seen my post yesterday about my end of year uni ball! We've been every year since first year and it's always a good night! This year was no different. It's so lovely to see everyone before everyone goes back home for the summer months! 

So that was my week this week! 
p.s this time next week I'll be lying on a beach in Portugal! (Just saying!) 
Hehe!

Black and Gold

Saturday, 10 May 2014

Hey everyone!
As you may know, I finished my exams this week, and it's tradition on my course that we have a ball at the end of every year! Of course this means I get to buy a new dress every year which is always fun!
So here is my outfit from last night!!

Please excuse my messy hallway! 
My dress is from Boohoo.com, I'm wearing gold glitter shoes from Next and a plain silk pashmina from Tie Rack

Train selfie!
I wore plain gold ball earrings (from H&M) and no necklace as I thought the sequins on the dress were enough! 
I never wear eye make-up so as you can see I treated my eyes last night! And I just wore my hair in a ponytail and curled the ends! 

Everyone had a great night, especially our lecturer who was more drunk than any of the students! I had a rather sore head this morning (made worse by starting work at 9am)! So scary that next year's ball will be my last ever one! Ahh I'm getting old!
