Outfit Post: Owl Collar Playsuit

Playsuit: Ax Paris ♥ Clutch : Select

I couldn’t not show you this playsuit; I love clothes with animals on at the minute so this Owl playsuit from AX Paris was right up my street.

Black is always slimming and I think the cut on this is really flattering as it slightly flares out at the waist, it’s also quite silky material and not clingy at all. It has a pretty black peter pan collar, which mixed with the owl print just makes it a super cute outfit. I wore this with black tights as it’s freezing at the moment but it would also look great with bear legs. I finished the look with my black studded bag from Select and a black leather jacket and heels to add a bit of edge.

The Owl playsuit is currently on sale at AX Paris for the bargainous price of £14.99.

Are you a fan of animal patterns?

Nails: Purple Passion

Fantasy Fire ♥ To Buy or not to Buy ♥ Vivid Violet ♥ Purple Mystique ♥ Berry Ice Cream

As my Case of the Blues post went down so well I thought it would be a great opportunity to create a series of my favourite polishes, today I am showcasing my passion for purple. Purple is one of my favourite colours, I love how it’s so versatile and can look great at any time of the year. These 5 are my most reached for and just the most gorgeous shades.

Fantasy Fire byMax Factor is the most beautiful colour to look at it has a gold shimmer running through it. The gold really makes the colour a bit special and looks fabulous on a night out. The only problem with this is its very sheer and takes at least 4 coats (yes I said 4!) to get an opaque finish. To be honest I usually lose interest after coat 2 but if I have the time and effort to put in it looks great.

To Buy or not to Buy was my first ever Essie polish and  think its gorge, it’s a very pale lilac with tiny flecks of glitter perfect for summer I just with the glitter was a bit more noticeable.

Vivid Violet by No7 is another great shade for all year round; I love the shiny finish it gives. Purple mystique by Models Own is probably the colour that frequents my toes the most often, I don’t know why but purple toes make me happy.

Barry M’s Berry Ice Cream was without a doubt my polish of choice in summer 2012. Pastels are essential in the sunshine and Barry M certainly knows how to work a pastel! In fact Today's winner has to be Barry M’s Berry Ice cream, wearing this again has really made me remember the good times of last summer and I can’t wait until the sunshine arrives back here in England!

Do you love a purple polish? Which one is your favourite?

The Breakfast Club

Sex, Drugs and Bacon Rolls

Breakfast like a king, Lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper. If you want the breakfast of a king (or queen) The Breakfast Club is what you need in your life.

I've read a lot about The Breakfast Club online and it just comes across as such a happy and exciting place, so after a night out on Friday my friends and I were in desperate need of something to make us feel human again.

You know a place is good when you have to queue to get in but I've never had to queue up for a restaurant before! This was only for about 20 minutes but it was so worth it. There are 4 locations around London, we went to the one in Spitalfields.  As you walk in you are greeted with fairy lights and lots of quirky little ornaments and pictures, I particularly loved the door disguised as a smeg fridge!

My breakfast saviour of choice was the HUEVOS AL BENNY.
'Poached eggs, chorizo, roast peppers, avocado, fresh chillies, spicy hollandaise on toasted English Muffin'

I would never have thought of mixing this combination together myself buy it honestly made me feel so much better, goodbye hangover! My friends also assured me that the Chorizo Hash Browns and the All American pancakes would also have hit the spot.

If you are visiting London and are in need of something lip smackingly good then I can’t recommend this place enough. I will definitely be returning when I visit the capital again, it’s making my mouth water just looking at those eggs!

If my recommendations aren’t enough take a look at this menu and I would be shocked if there isn't something on there that tickles your taste buds.

Have you been to the breakfast club before? What's your favourite dish?

Sunday Night Pamper Session

Sunday Essentials

There's no better feeling than putting your feet up after a mad weekend and that exactly what i'm doing tonight.

After spending the weekend at my friends in London eating, drinking and sleeping on the floor in my sleeping bag all I want to do is feel clean and have a good sleep in my own bed.

To start the huge bags under my eyes are hideous lack of sleep really does take its toll, so I soaked 2 cotton pads with Liz Earle’s Eye Bright and left them on my eyes for 10 minutes, I find this so relaxing. Next up my skin needed a mega deep clean, Emma Hardie Amazing Face Cleansing Balm, what the hell would I do without you?! I could literally feel the effects of the weekend melting off my face. I then followed this with the No7 Purifying mask just as a little extra treat for my skin; I love how soft this leaves my skin.

While I’m waiting for my boyfriend to finish work I decided to paint my toenails to, today’s choice is No7 Vivid Violet and Purple Haze by Models Own, pretty painted toenails make me feel special.

Sunday night wouldn't be complete without a cup of tea, cheeky bar of chocolate, the #bbloggers chat and an early night, gosh I sound old. Once I've gone through my photos I’ll hopefully be able to show you a few from my weekend, if you follow me on Instagram you may have already seen the delicious food I have indulged in! I can't believe its Monday already tomorrow, where does the time go!?

What have you been up to this weekend? Do you have a Sunday night routine too?
