Hi, lovelies!

Last night was the night of the #northernbloggersxmasparty. The party was arranged by the lovely Rachel from notesfrommycloset.blogspot.co.uk and was held at The Park inn hotel, York. 

It was an absolutely amazing night! 

I got ready far too early, but I was really happy with the outcome of a couple of hours playing with my make-up stash. 

I also painted a couple of layers of Deborah Lippmanns Razzle Dazzle onto my nails. 

 My outfit for the night comprised of -
DRESS - Charity shop (BHS)
 JACKET - Blog sale (Matalan) 
BOOTS - Nelly 
EARRINGS - Kukee

Sorry about the not so greatly laid out photos. Liam took them for me, moments before I had to leave the house.
Organised Sam had turned into a very unorganised Sam by this point.



The room where the party was held was filled with lots of round tables with the most pretty center pieces. Sarah and I debated if we could get away with pinching it. Haha.
 After a little confusion, we found that our table was labelled for Freelance writers. We were all pretty chuffed with that. I felt all fancy!
 The night was filled with Christmas crackers, ridiculously yummy food, secret santa and a lot of dancing. Oh, and one rather merry fello who decided to pick on our table. He seemed to be everywhere!! (You'll see him on the vlog!)

Towards the end of the evening, we found a cute spot on the hotel stairs to take some outfit photos. I figured I would show you all what we were all wearing!

At eleven, we all started to head home. 

I got back to mine a half past twelve, and proceeded to stay up until half past three to get the vlog edited and uploaded. You can watch it below!

My Week In Photos #012 colf | flu | gig | ill | music | my week | my week in photos | sick | we the kings | when flowers fall | whenflowersfall

Hi Lovelies!

This week has been taken over by two things. The We The Kings gig and being ridiculously ill.

Monday night was incredible, but I'm not going to ramble on about that as I already wrote an entire post about it on Tuesday. Major fangirl explosion. 

Unfortunately, the standing in the rain that happened on Monday night has meant I have spent the rest of the week losing my brain through my nose. I cannot remember the last time I had a cold like this. Haha. I'm currently tackling it with cold pills, junk food (sorry diet) and lots of O.J.

As soon as it's gone, I'm going to film a few videos and hopefully I can get back into the swing of things with Youtube. 

I hope you have all had a good week.

I want to apologise for those who may be expecting a beauty related post today, but I just couldn't go without posting about my most amazing night out last night.

A friend and I went into Leeds to see We The Kings play at The Cockpit, they were supported by three other bands, one of which seemed to be totally up themselves and their fans weren't much better either. Baring in mind that the room we were in was reasonably small, they were full on moshing. I have to admit, I'm not one to mosh myself and I don't think the younger majority of the audience were either. 

I did have a slight moment of panic but I managed to work myself out of it quickly and was able to enjoy the rest of the show. It's nice to see some improvement in myself, considering six months ago I wouldn't have even gone into Leeds at night, let alone go to a gig. 

Any who, if you don't know who We The Kings are, you need to check them out! The bassist is youtuber Charles Trippy and I have to admit he's the one who founded my love for the band. 

It was their last UK show last night and they are heading back to the US as I type this, but I have no doubt they will be back some time in the near future.
