Liam and I hadn't planned on doing anything tonight, but we decided at lunch time to go out for some pub grub instead. It's not going to be anything fancy, we're just going to our closest Flaming Grill, but it';; be nice to get out of the house and do something that we don't often do. 

I hope you're all having a good day!

Truthfully, the title of this post has nothing to do with the post. It's simply the song that it stuck in my head right now.

A few weeks back I was asked to write a couple of posts for the blog on SpyLoveBuy. In return they offered to send me a pair of shoes of my choice. 
The shoes I chose were the Sandra block heel boots.  I tried to chose a more 'Winter suitable' pair, but I keep on going back to these. When they arrived, they were just as beautiful as I thought, and even though Liam hates how tall I am in them, I adore them. 

These may not be puppy walking boots, but they're certainly going to get a lot of wear!

Hey, lovelies!

A little while back I spent the afternoon shooting some outfit photos. I kept a few of the back for a rainy day, but then proceeded to change my hair, and I simply forgot all about them. 
Whilst flicking through my photo folders last night, I came across them and figured I would post them today before I forget about them again.

It's really weird seeing me wearing those shoes. They're now dead and gone, all chewed up by Mr.Bug. Problem is, now I don't own one single pair of pumps. Hurry Christmas, I need to do shopping for myself! Haha. 

I'd totally planned on filming a couple of beauty videos today, but I seem to have had an allergic reaction to something and my skin is as dry as a desert.

Can you believe it's the 11th already?

A little while back I was lucky enough to win a competition over on Facebook. 
I won this gorgeous vintage leather bag and I absolutely love it. Next time I use it I need to remember to take a photo of the clasp, it's so unique!

T-shirt - ??? I stole it from Liam
Maxi - Primark

It's the first day of Liams two weeks off and we've been running around town just getting some errands done. We haven't really got any other plans for today. Just some relaxing and an early night. 

I've been obsessed with the jacket, ever since I received it on Saturday morning. I'm literally wearing it with everything. 

Sorry this is such a short post. 
Hope you all had a good Monday.

Boots - Ebay

This outfit has a pretty long history! 
Orange Circle very kindly sent me this T-shirt, but unfortunately it didn't get to me before I travelled down to London. After a couple of weeks, it turned out that I hadn't actually sent them my new address! Big whoops on my part!!! I honestly thought I had. But, luckily I managed to track the t-shirt down and it was sitting by its lonely self at the collection office.

Since I now have the T-shirt, I really wanted to show you what I would have worn. Like you may have seen, I did end up wearing one of my old battered shirts from OC anyway. 

The shirt jacket was taken with me down to London. I did plan on wearing it, but thanks to the lovely British weather, I felt it was a little too cold to wear it. 

I absolutely adore this outfit and as soon as I get the chance, I will be wearing it out. 
Liam has the next two weeks off work, so you never know, we may actually do something fancy. 

Hope you are all having a fab weekend!

Well, hello there.
You guys know that I spent weeks worrying about what I was going to wear on my trip to London.
After a week of free listings on ebay, I managed to raise enough funds to buy a new pair of boots, and Orange Circle offered to send me a T-shirt to sport on the day too. 
Unfortunately, that t-shirt still hasn't arrived and I think it may have gotten lost in the world of Royal Mail.
So, without further a do, here is what I managed to pull together.

T-shirt - Orange Circle
Disco Pants - Glamorous
Boots - Ebay
Rings - Otley market, Kukee, Engagement ring.

Now, you may be wondering how I'm still wearing an Orange Circle Tee. I did have this one in my wardrobe, but it was sporting a rather evil looking stain. On the day before I left, the day I realised I wasn't going to receive the new one, I attacked it with bleach and luckily the stain came out. I felt really bad that they had sent me a t-shirt to wear and I still wanted to show off some Orange Circle if I could.
The jacket was a last minute change of plan. I did originally plan to wear a sheer, silky cream jacket I had customised. But, being London, it was rather windy and nippy so I figured the denim would be a better choice. I even had a photo of it taken. (Just wish I had found out what for.)

As you can see form my face, I was pretty shattered from the 5 hour drive earlier that day, so I decided to go minimal with make-up, but wear a bold lip. 
My hair was a disaster. Originally it was down and beachy looking, but it was roasting in the Freemasons Hall and I ended up scraping it back. 

I think if I'm to go next year, I will choose to dress differently. Maybe a little less casual? 
That being said, I am glad I was comfortable, because I felt ever so sorry for Ebony, who had been wearing her heels since seven in the morning.

Make sure to go over to Sally and Ebony's blog to see what they wore.

Hi my lovelies!
I really wanted to share my outfit from yesterday, so here it is in all its grungey-ness.
Believe me when I say that the shoes were great, right up until I was getting on the train on the way home and blisters started to appear. The day way totally worth it though.

If you want to see all the happenings from yesterdays event, make sure to check out my post here

Psssst...Keep your beady eyes peeled. I'll be posting a give away later on today! 

ALSO BIG THANK YOU TO SARAH (BOWSANDBLUSHX) FOR TAKING THESE PHOTOS FOR ME. :)

Hi lovelies!
Ta Daaaaa!! I'm finally revealing  my new hair colour. After experimenting with the lighter purple shade, I thought I'd take the plunge and finally dye my hair the colour I've been craving for a while! 
Today, I started my new health kick with Liam and it's safe to say that I'm pretty damn hungry right now, but hopefully all will come good and it will pay off. 
Hope you are all having a fab Thursday!

Pictures13T-shirt - Orange Circle
Maxi Skirt - Primark (Maxi Dress)

Hi lovelies!
Yes, that really is all there is to this outfit. I think there's nothing better than wearing something simple and comfy when the weather is being unpredictable. 
I think you may have all seen this 'skirt' before, but if you haven't, it's actually a maxi dress from Primark. Only problem is, because I'm so tall, it looks awful as an actual dress. I think I prefer to wear it this way anyway, purely for the fact that it's super long and I find I trip up it less when it's this length. Strange, right?
Anywhooooo, I'm off to potter around the house. 
Hope you're all well!

Hi Lovelies!
I've been wanting to do an outfit posts for a couple of days now, only problem is, I have squished my tripod in behind my desk in the study so I can now use it to film tutorials and such like. So I'm doing it this way, I thought I may as well take advantage of having a huge mirrored wardrobe. I think I may have to eventually get another tripod so I don't have to struggle getting my other one in and out all of the time though. 

Now, It's not like me to normally wear something so figure hugging, but I came across a site that seemed to be only selling dresses that would fit UK size 4-10. I'm not going to name the site, but I can most certainly tell you that I am a little sickened by it. 

I like to think that my style is a little edgy ( or at least I would like it to be that way, you all know my current wardrobe issues,) but it annoys me to see so many websites/stores that only sell the good stuff in smaller sizes. 
I'm currently a UK size 16, and even though I am trying to lose weight, it's mainly for health reasons and to tone up, rather than the fact that I want to be super skinny. I mean, yeah, it would be nice to be a little slimmer, but I actually love my curves and I really want to embrace them. 

If I can do one thing through blogging, I would love for it to be teaching other girls to love their shape and who they are. You have one body, you should look after it and love what you have. 
Remember, everyone is different, and most images online or in magazines are usually photoshopped. 

What do you guys think of stores that only carry selected sizes?

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?
