Guess I got too excited when I thought you were around

Tobacco pussy bow dress: Primark

Nude shoes: Primark

Nude tights: Primark

Gold sequin bag: Topshop

Pearl drop earrings: Topshop

Cream hair flower: Primark

I ended up going for the Primark version of this dress, I just cannot afford Topshop at the moment. It is extremely short, im used to wearing midi-length skirts/dresses at the minute so not used to it! Excuse the massive legs I wanted to show you the back of my tights. They were only a pound but my boyfriend says it looks like I have had a skin graft!

I decided to go for a bun, thought as the pussy bow is a statement it deserved to be shown off! I used a doughnut and just pinned my hair around it. I'm quite pleased with how it turned out. Now my hair is getting longer, i'm finding I can do more things with it.

Im off to camden tonight and thanks to Robyn and Ellie I have a few ideas of some new places to try out. We tend to still to the same ones out of habit. I'm not going to go too mad as I have work tomorrow but I'm looking forward to having a bit of dance and being with all my favourite boys! Yes I am the only girl going out again haha!

I'm looking forward to blogging again properly next week, I nearly died last week commuting but it was so worth it! I have so much to talk about!

Hope you all have a lovely weekend!

I do like to be beside the seaside

Look what I "accidentally" brought while I was exchanging a skirt in Primark after work. Marble Arch Primark will be the death of me I swear! I had to pull myself away from things so many times! I might wander down there by mistake again this week, obviously not on purpose!I know it is quite clearly a summer dress but as its so beautiful that I want to wear it now! But I have no idea how to "winter it up". I think i'm going to pair it with white tights but am not sure what colour cardigan to wear? I tried on a black and while it did not look bad, it just felt too dark to me. I feel like it needs lighter colours. What about grey tights?

I am so pleased with it, its the one thing that i spotted in the lookbook that I desperately needed! It reminds me of Prada, didn't they create something like this a few seasons ago? I swear perhaps Carey Mulligan had one on? Excuse me if im completely wrong!

I need your help! How can I make it suitable for Winter?

I had my first day at Nuts magazine and I am shattered! I left my house at 7.30am and finally got in at 8pm. But I think i'm really going to enjoy it. It was a bit quiet today but i've found that most magazines are from previous experience. It must be the monday morning feeling! I sorted out the post and came across quite a few half naked ladies haha. I also got to transcribe an interview with someone from Hollyoaks off a dictaphone. Im looking forward to going back tomorrow.

Versatile Blogger Award

I have been extremely lucky to have been awarded two blog awards recently. Thanks girls I am very honoured! This was the first one.

The lovely Dani tagged me in this a few days ago. As always there are some rules, they are:

1.Thank and link back to who gave you the award.

2.Share 7 things about yourself.

3.Pass it on to 7 beauty blogs you've recently discovered and enjoy.

4.Leave your recipient a note, telling them about the award.

Now i'm going to have to think up some things that might make me sound interesting!

1. I am a fully qualified brownie leader, much to my boyfriends disbelief. He seems to think that Girlguiding is Hitler Youth. I have been volunteering since I was 15 when I first started my Duke of Edinburgh award. It can be hard work at times, 7-10 year olds can be very demanding but I love it. I hope one day to open my own brownie pack.

2. I am grade seven in the clarinet and had music lessons for 11 years. I have hardly picked the instrument up for nearly four years so I may not even be grade one level now haha!

3. I am celebrating my four year anniversary with the boyfriend next week. Time flies when your having fun eh?

4. I have wanted to be a journalist since I was 11 and am now just months away from completely a degree in it. Its mad to think my dream will be coming true. Hopefully!

5. I have an obsession with buying books, I dont even have the time to read them. But everytime I wander in a charity shop I come out with an handful. My mum has started putting them in the loft without asking me haha!

6. My favourite food is cheese and sour cream. Not always together. I love to smoother everything in sour cream and I can sit and eat a block on cheese in one sitting. I dread to think how many calories my homemade nachos have haha!

7. When I was 18 I went on weightwatchers and ended up losing three stone in about four months. It was such hard work but im so proud of myself. I stopped dieting when I got pulled into my head of sixth form's office and asked if I had problems at home haha! Ive now put about a stone of it back but am mostly happy with the way I look.

So now to tag people! I choose these seven lovely people:

Daisy loves Lipgloss

Away with the fairies..

Effies makeup box

Emy loves

Flaws and all

Lyd's Blonde Thoughts ...

Leanne Marie

I am on work experience all next week in the city so may not be able to blog very much. I should imagine I will spend all my time sleeping when I finally get home!

On another note, thank to everyone who is reading this! I cannot really believe im on 39 followers :) I think im going to organise a little giveaway at 50 to say thank you to everyone. It means so much to me that you read this!
