This week i'm loving - Seche Vite

I finally caved into blogger hype a few months ago and purchased Seche Viteon from Amazon. I don't know what I seem to do but i'm lucky is my nail polish remains chip free for more than a day. More often then not it chips within a few hours. I blame working on a competer all day for ruining it! At first I couldn't get on with it and didn't find it made much difference. But then Sarah suggested I use a thin coat rather than the thick one I plastered on. It worked a treat and now my polish lasts for around 3-4 days which is amazing! I find it works best on Barry M and OPI. No 7 still isn't really that good unfortuately.

Have you been converted to Seche Vite?

#AxCircus






This last image should be a warning to never leave your phone in the hands of fellow bloggers...

Last week I was very kindly invited to what seemed to be the blogger event of the year! My twitter feed was going crazy with excitement as it seemed all my favourite bloggers were attending. My idea of a perfect night out! It was in honour of the first ever AX Paris advert - it's pretty snazzy so make sure you keep your eye out for. Held in an amazing venue called Circus, we were treated to an impressive fire eater as pictured above, a man spinning around on a giant hula hoop - made me feel a bit sick! - and some arcobats. I think I might have watched open mouthed! As always it was so much fun to have a natter with all my favourite people whilst drinking cocktails and munching on the yummy canapes.

I didn't get to have a nosy at the clothes as much as I would have liked - I was too busy nattering to everyone in sight - but I did notice they had some cracking dresses! With such pretty colours, there are a few that are on my wishlist.

Thanks so much for Etail and Ax Paris for putting on such an amazing event - you really pulled this one out the bag!

I left my camera at home so these were taken on my iPhone hence the not so great quality. #bloggerfail. I'd lose my head if it wasn't screwed on!

We could have been anything that we wanted to be




Outfit:
White animal print t-shirt - Primark
White vest top - Primark
Brown super soft skinny jeans - Primark
Brown tassled loafers - Clothing at Tesco
Navy lightweight jacket - H&M
Brown satchel - Primark

Yet again another Primark sponsored outfit - I can't seem to stay away! These jeans were tucked away with the labels still on. I brought them around Christmas time - shameful eh? They were buried under my mountain of trousers in the drawer found when I was rummaging around for things to sell on a bootsale. It doesn't really help my case when I insist I have nothing to wear does it?! Does it bug anyone else that everything seems to be sheer lately? I'm getting a tad fed up of always having to layer a vest top under EVERYTHING. This is a t-shirt so why isn't it opaque! I really liked the subtle print, it made it a little bit different from a standard white t-shirt.

Today will be spent pottering around sorting things with my nan for bootsale tomorrow rounded off with a trip down the pub to see some friends after cooking a romantic meal for my boyfriend and I. Hopefully i'll be making my fortune at the bootsale tomorrow - keep your fingers crossed people want to buy my rubbish!

What do you have planned for the weekend?
