Hey beauties!

Yes, I finally have my mojo back. Since the move I've really struggled to find a new routine, but I am determined to make this work. 

I'm focussing this week on blog posts and videos, so if you have any requests or suggestions for either, please feel free to leave a comment below. 

Make-up wise, I've really started to enjoying playing around with different styles and colours again. Even though I'm not doing much today, and probably not even leaving the house, I really wanted a use a pop of colour and this bright blue is just perfect! No doubt it will be dripping off of my face within the next couple of hours, it seems we are actually having some sort of Summer?! But if I'm honest, I'd trade a face of make-up for some hot, sunny days anyday.

Hat - ???

Top - Originally from George at Asda, DIY by me

Leggings - Originally from Primark, Dyed a darker colour by me. 

I'm off out to view a house today, so I thought I should go with an outfit less in your face than the last one I posted. Obviously, I couldn't go without a cross though. Believe it or not, this was the first top I ever DIY-ed and I'm still in love with it. You can find out HERE how I did it. 

The leggings were originally a light brown, almost skin colour. (Why I ever bought them, I don't know!) I tried to dye the black the other day along with another pair and they both failed to take the dye, luckily these have turned a little darker which means I am more than happy to wear them now. 

I'm finally feeling more and more confident in myself to post OOTDs. My weightloss is going well and I'm still looking forward to seeing a smaller me in OOTDs of the future. Make sure to follow my Friday Fitday posts to see how I'm getting on. 

Have any of you guys got any favourite DIY's you can link me to?

Hi Lovelies!

    I thought I'd share my new youtube weekly feature with you! I've decided that once a week I am going to post a new video of me doing my make-up/getting ready in the morning. I will probably post on a Tuesday as to follow on from my Monday Make-up feature on here. 

    I thought of the idea this morning and I couldn't wait until tomorrow to film my first one, so you got this weeks a day early. 

    Don't forget to subscribe to my channel though, just to make sure you don't miss out of any of the episodes. I may not post them on here every week, and remember to give them a thumbs up if you would like them to continue!
