Pretending to be Posh

It's not often I get to dress up all smart but I don't half get excited when I do! I went along to a charity ball in my town which was all about raising money and picking a carnival queen in the process. This was the perfect excuse for me to treat myself to a new posh dress.
Dress: AX Paris Bag: New Look Shoes: Primark

I usually find AX Paris are good for dresses for this type of occasion and they didn't let me down. Sometimes tight dresses can easily show curves in all the wrong places however the fit, length and material of this dress is all spot on.
The evening was so much fun, filled with competitions a lot of prosecco and a fashion show showcasing the most beautiful wedding dresses. To top it off I even ended up winning £1000 for the charity of my choice! I was pretty blown away as I never win anything, and after much deliberation with myself I decided to donate it to Mind so I feel pretty good right now.

Fitness Haul!


A little fitness haul for you today.  I really believe that if you have new things that you feel comfortable in and make you look pretty good then you are more likely to get up and do some exercise, it’s amazing how some new trainers or a sports bra can give you that extra bit of motivation! So after a little trip to Sports Direct I am ready to work out.

The trousers are by USA Pro Sport, they are so comfy and not restricting at all, I actually think they make my legs look pretty good! There are perfect all different kind of sport and i know i will get a lot of wear out of them.

I was in desperate need of a new sports bra and this Lonsdale one was exactly what  was looking for, and it has pink on it so event better!

The Nike trainers have to be my fave purchase, they are so springy they made me feel a bit like tigger haha running on the treadmill didn't feel as much as a chore today.

Lastly I nipped in to Primark and picked up these colourful vest tops, they are stretchy but not clingy and cost about £2 each you really can’t go wrong.
What do you wear to work out?

HAUL: Primark, H&M, New Look

I've been shopping! Just a few little bargains I picked up the other day, I've never bought so many different sizes for clothes and thinking about it I didn't by one item in my actual size! Some are smaller some are way bigger so no wonder people get issues with how big they are. O well as long as they look good! 
Primark Trousers £12 Cami £6
H&M Trousers £12.99 New Look Cami £10 Primak skirt £4
Primark shoes: Cream £8 Black £12
Pyjamas £8
Necklace £4 Rings £2

Patterned trousers are my weakness at the moment they seem to be taking over my wardrobe, I can't wait to do outfit posts for these.

Cami's are everywhere at the moment and I think they are so flattering but I Just cannot justify the Topshop £18 price tag, good job there are cheaper versions around for me!

Surprise, Surprise I picked up the Disney pyjamas I'm missing Florida so much! I love that these have old school Mickey on they are so cute!

Cheap and cheerful jewellery you cant go wrong.

What do you think? what have you been buying lately?

Sunday Funday: Cushions and Cuddles


I can't believe it’s Monday morning already, the weekend will just never be long enough. I had a lovely day yesterday though, for me Sundays are all about leisure and doing whatever you want whether it’s shopping, eating or just spending the day lazing in your pyjamas and I did a bit of all 3 yesterday.

My friend and I did a bit of shopping and I picked up these two gorgeous cushions from Primark, how cute is the fox one! I cam so close to buying 'that' Zara bag which everyone seems to have but I didn't wanna follow the crowd and now i cant stop thinking about it! I may have to do a cheeky online purchase on my lunch break.

Shopping is never the same without a spot of lunch and Nandos was our food of choice, I opted for medium chicken then poured hot sauce all over it, you can’t beat a bit of spice.

I finished of the day with a bit of nail painting and having a blog and You Tube catch up. I love snuggling up in bed with a cup of tea, chocolate bar and lighting lots of candles, it’s just what Sundays are made for.

What did you get up to this weekend?

It's a PJ Kind of Day

Panda Pyjamas - Primark

I seem to have done what I do every January and spend way too much money in the sales and then realise there is still another 4 weeks until payday, when will I learn!? So today I have had a bit of time to myself without spending any money, just my pyjamas, a cup of tea and doing a bit of blog stalking, what could be better? It always amazes me how I can manage to find a blog that I've never seen before just when I think I've seen them all!

I have also had a bit of time to play around with my new camera that I got for Christmas, trying to get used to the settings and self timer (hence the posey pj pics) and I’m hoping to get out and start taking some nice photos when the weather picks up. 

So far my resolutions are going well I've been to the gym 3 times this week and it's really made me feel better about myself. Tonight i'm going out for a catch up with the girls and for some dessert so that will be a nice treat to end the week.

How have you spent your Sunday?

Hello lovelies, today's post is a clothing haul! These are are a couple of my fave bits that I have acquired over the last few weeks. If you havn't already guessed I am loving the Berry/wine colour at moment, I will buy anything in that colour. Also the rocky skull and studd look is one of my faves, its just so easy to liven up an outfit.

I am off to Egypt next week so I treated myself to a new beach bag. I have been lusting over the Cath Kidston bags for a while now but this similar one from Primark for just £3 is perfect.

Last of all the LBD. Simple and classic with a stand out gold belt is perfect for any occasion.

After my holiday I really need to buy some more big snuggly jumpers and hoodies, my boyfriend is getting a bit fed up of me wearing his all the time haha.

Hopefully I will be doing some outfit posts soon.

This weekend I shopped...a lot. My bank account is not looking to healthy right now, but hey, I'm off on holiday next month and I wanted to treat myself to some goodies. Although I may have to hibernate for the rest of the month. Anyways here's what I bought:


Primark


I have a real thing for shirts and collars at the moment, they are so easy to dress up or down. I usually like to wear them with a skirt or skinny jeans. These were all eiher £10 or under.


I really love the colour of this green dress it's so prefect for summer and a £6 bargain. The Guns and Roses top was only £8, I think it looks so much more expensive.

 
This bag is huge and I'm loving the studs! £12


 Bikini £8 all together


Pink lace shorts I love these! £12


Skull Scarf £4

H&M


This spotty dress was only £5 in the sale! The Rolling Stones top was £10.

New Look


Studded top £12.99

So I'm all shopped out. Hopefully this will dtop me from moaning that i have 'nothing to wear,' for the next few weeks at least.
