The week after I came back from my lovely bank holiday weekend have been pretty boring :(
All I've done is been to the car-boot twice as to me, it's by far the best place to shop for vintage pieces. I've also helped paint my room and the parents' room. Both the colour magnolia (a lovely cream), but don't worry both rooms look different as one is on top of wallpaper and the other is not. We are also getting new carpets (dark brown in my room) and I've also got a new desk. My room should end up with a brown-ish/cream-ish theme.

I also went to my friends 18th on Monday. We went for a meal and ended up at a quaint little pub.

I start college tomorrow. So not looking forward to it, no more lie-ins and do-nothing-time, boo me. :( But I am excited to see my new timetables. I know it sounds sad, but I can't wait to plan my weeks, find out my frees and decide on how to revise (haha, swot or what?). Also, deciding on outfits for the week.
I've decided to take a photo of myself every morning (when I look my best) and then choose the best outfit of the week to show you guys, so keep checking back!
I hope your weekend has been great and the sun's on your side.

As this is the first ever blog giveaway I've won, I thought I'd share some photos of the prize with you all!I has worn the nail paint for a week before I took this photo so my it's chipped :(, but as you can see the colour is gorgeous!

Yesterday, we were supposedly gonna go see Step Up 3d but it had sold out so we ended up watching Toy Story 3d with my cousin. I LOVED IT! It was soooo funny, cute and definitely worth the wait of several years. It made me think about how much imagination and time must have went into making such an inventive film. I still wanna go see step up but I'm very glad to have gone to see toy story instead. We also brought a meal deal from boots (Mexican bean wrap, yum!) and layed outside in the sun in town!

Tomorrow I'm going over to a friend's house to catch up before college starts on the 13th :(

Hope you've all had a good bank holiday weekend and hope everything is gravy!

Landan - Day 2.

The following is what the girls and I did the next day:

got glammed up.
had breakfast (no idea why the lighting came out dark, as it was a VERY sunny/bright day).

took photos of The London Eye, Barclays cycles and The Big Ben whilst waiting in a queue for the cruise.
went on a lovely cruise around central London.
went shopping on the legendary Oxford Street.

denim shorts - Primark
plait belt - Primark kids

pink cardigan - mother's vintage
black bag - Matalan
scarf on bag - Primark
sunglasses (worn above) - Primark
OMG, soooo did not realise my that my outfit mostly consists of Primani goodies. wow! I'm not sure if I'm impressed or shocked or annoyed. Oh well.

had lunch in a gorgeous park.

I hope your guys' summer is going well. If you live in England like me...I can feel your pain. It's impossible to do anything. I plan to go out, wear summer clothes (as the weather seems nice in the morning) but by midday the sun has gone and showers has hit :(, I hate it.


After the first 2 weeks of my holidays being jam packed with work experience, Wales, Cambridge, London, general outings with the friends, and the third week, busy taking care of my ill-but-now-recovered-mother, last week and this week have been pretty slow and boring. I've been at home most of the days


All I have done is watched films, been on the regular errands now that my sister has just passed her driving test (I'm soooo proud!), been town shopping and carbooting (woooo!), had my two baby teeth pulled out (ouch!), had two family gatherings and had my AS results been given to me.

Here is what I got:

A - Psychology (woooooo!)
B - Philosophy (only a couple marks of an A, so I'm resitting one of the papers)
B - History (only a couple marks of an A again , so I'm also resitting one of the papers)
D - Biology (I have now dropped it, as I'm rubbish at it and it bores the life out of me. It also wasted valuable revising time which I could have used for history and philosophy to get myself the well deserved A's)

*My next post will be Landan - Day 2.*

I've decided to do posts with less text and more photos for a change as it's quicker, easier and maybe more easy on the eyes? I dunno. I just thought my lovely followers and anonymous readers may prefer this. Please comment and tell be what you like better.

Lately -

  • searching for: cute vintage blouses
  • reading: I heart New York by Lindsey Kelk
  • watching: Jersey Shore on MTV
  • listening to: Keane, under the iron sea album
