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?

Sunday Funday: Trip to the Seaside!

Dress: AX Paris (sale)

 Hi ladies, As some of you may know I recently went to Sorrento for my cousins wedding. This weekend was their wedding reception so everyone that couldn't make it to Italy could join in the celebrations. Luckily for me they live on the coast so a lovely trip to the seaside was in order.

Being at the seaside there was obviously a couple of things I wanted to do before i got ready, first stop, the beach! I find it so relaxing looking at the sea and although it wasn't quite the heat we had in Sorrento the weather was lovely and a great day for a party.

In the harbour there were lots of boat trips including a trip on a pirate ship and speed boat rides. I couldn’t resist the speed boat so my dad I climbed onto Sonic the speed boat,  best £4 I’ve ever spent, it was so nice being out at sea and it’s something I don’t get to do every day.

Next stop the chippie. Fish and chips always taste so much better by the sea and I don’t think you can beat it in Yorkshire with a nice cup of tea. Being a piggy I went large, oh my god I could barely move after.

The wedding reception was beautiful; it was lovely to catch up with people I hadn’t seen since Italy. Of course I was first at the buffet which was Italian themed and delicious.

Once again diet starts tomorrow...

Hope you all had a great long weekend!

Bit late for the weekend post but Never mind! 

I LOVE going out for food, I just think its great to spend time with your friends/family over a nice meal. This weekend a pub where I live put on a 6 course seafood taster menu and oh my god it was fantastic! There was also the option to add a matching wine to every course but unfortunately for me it was too close to payday so I just bought my drinks separately.I keep changing my mind to what my favourite course was every 5 minutes, they were all excellent.

 In a couple of weeks they are doing a Japanese night, bring it on!

Weekend Post, Food and Drink!

April is always such a busy month for me, so many birthdays and bank holidays my poor bank account just can't take it! It's always worth it though. This weekend for my friends birthday we went for a fabulous slap up meal (as well as a huge breakfast and hangover Indian takeaway!). My housemates and I also had a bit of a gathering at our house and I was in charge of making the punch!

Needless too say, diet starts tomorrow!

Hope you all had a lovely weekend. Charlie x
