A Snapshot #10

001: Well I ate a lot of food this week. What weightwatchers? I was too busy out enjoying myself to point watch, something i'm sure to regret come tomorrow's weigh in... I attempted my first homemade lasagne tonight. It was lovely even if I do say so myself! It was a weightwatchers recipe so I used pork mince instead of beef. It was a really nice change.

002. I spent Saturday night round a friends house watching a film and stuffing myself on pizza. Perfect Saturday night in! Not bad for £3 eh?

003. I brought a money tin today to start seriously saving for my Mulberry bag. Unsure if I should save for a Lily (its one of the least expensive) or a Bayswater (my dream bag). Ideally I would like both though! I am going to put in at least £5 a week, it's not a lot but it's a start!

004. Nomnomnom! Nachos are my absolute favourite, I could seriously eat them for breakfast, lunch and dinner! Met my best friend for a pub lunch this weekend for a much needed catch up!

005 - 006. Is there anywhere better place to eat other than TGI Fridays? I tried to be good and eat a dish that was one of the lowest points so went for vegetable fajitas but fell off the wagon with this shared starter. It was so good though!

You want it, she's got it





Outfit:
Grey midi dress complete with black skinny belt: Primark
Pleather hooded jacket: Topshop
Cameo print scarf: Primark
Back tights: Primark
Leather heeled ankle boots: Topshop
Blue statement ring: Wavy Jewellery

I won this beautiful ring in a twitter competiton from Wavy Jewellery, you should check out the website as they have some gorgeous pieces!

I featured the Topshop version of this dress in my wishlist post and after seeing Gem in it at LDN Lunch, it made me want it even more. However after Sarah let me in on a secret that they did an identical version in Primark so I made it my mission to hunt it down! The Topshop one is softer material, slightly longer and more of a grey marl colour but for a tenner i'll make do with this Primark number. It also came with a belt. Double whammy! I do really want the Topshop version in the the navy now. Anyone else like buying something they love in all the different colours it comes in? This jacket is years old, it was one of those irresponsible purchases when I was at Sixth Form and i'd spend every last penny on clothes. I think I was left with about 30p in my account for about 3 weeks after this... I have gotten better now I leave at least a £1 in my bank account! It's rubbish being a grown up where all my money goes on commuting and I hardly ever have enough money to treat myself.

Busy day planned today. Off to meet my best friend for lunch in our local pub with a few glasses of wine thrown in. Then we are both off to out friends house tonight for a night of dvds, pizza and more wine. Needlessly to say I am off weightwatchers for today. Not looking forward to the weigh in on Monday.. But to be honest could a Saturday be any better?

What do you have planned for today lovelies?

Bloggers that (LDN) Lunch


Well LDN Lunch was amazing even if I do say say myself. I honestly don't think it could have gone any better and from what I can gather everyone seemed like they had a really nice day. There was lots of gossiping, cocktail drinking, ahhhing over outfist and lots of food consumed which was what of course it was all about. So can we do it all again soon please ladies?

I must say a huge thank you to my partners in crime Eloise and Claire. You two really were amazing. Plus a huge thank you to everyone that made it, it was so nice to finally meet some of you in person. I knew there was a reason why I talk to you all so much on Twitter ;) It was such a shame that I didn't get to talk to more ladies, I found it all a bit overwhelming but in a good way!
Just look at the concentration in my face! Thanks to Kirstin for capturing that! This is the best photo of my whole outfit but you guys have seen it all before here.
Eloise and I getting our organising caps on. Once again thanks to Kirstin for the photo.

The beautiful Lowri, Sarah and Gem - it was so so lovely to meet these girls!
