Mushroom Sweater - outfit post.

Hello!
I bought this wonderful mushroom print sweater when I was in Paris (almost a year ago now!) from Zara - I never saw it over here so maybe they have different things? Anyway I've been doing alot of thinking this past week about Paris and how wonderful it and that time was for me (you can see my Paris posts here, here and here) which also reminded me that it was my blogs 1 year anniversary yesterday (21st) - can't believe I held something down for a year ;)

Mushroom Sweater - Zara 20euro.
Shorts - ASOS
White Tank (so old it has holes in as you can see) -H&M.

I love wearing shorts with a jumper over, it's perfect for indoor/warm but rainy weather.

In other news I'm heading to my family homeland of Manchester to meet up with a friend as we are off to see Glee Live tour! I AM SO EXCITED! I had no idea what to wear, old reader may remember my Rachel Berry dress up  post? - well I'm not wearing that haha! I'm sure I will decide 10 mins before I have to run for the train.

Anyway I hope all of you are having a great week so far!
and as requested in my last post - any of your fave beauty blogs you can link me to would be great!

Paris Trip (part 3).

Last Paris post, from my last day and night there..

Very image heavy, enjoy! 

Arc de Triomphe

The Eiffel Tower doing it's glittering thing

View from a bridge

Bottom of the Champs Elysees view up to the Arc

Champs Elysees street sign

Heaven

Macaroon heaven!

My sensible choices, Chocolate, Rose Petal, Mint and Vanilla

Luke's not so sensible choice.

3 for 1Euro - dodgy street dealings! 

Pere Lechaise cemetery - the crematorium was HUGE!

Oscar Wilde's grave site, covered in lipstick kisses.

Jim Morrison's burial site, very weird here being so close to an icon yet...not.

haha love it!

Ok thats it! 

I must ask what editor for blogspot do you use? I hate this one (new editor I think) it leaves massive gaps when I havnt added them and takes SO long to put right. Any help would be great, or you can contact me on AIM: cowbiscuits24

Paris Trip (part 2)

After the first full day in Paris, we had booked to go up to levels 2 and 3 of the Eiffel Tower at 9.30pm.

I've been to Paris before but never to the Eiffel Tower let alone up it so i was very excited and loved it!

View from Trocadero.

Stood underneath.

At night, at the start of every hour, the whole tower sparkles with flashing lights for 10 minutes.

View from 2nd floor.

Same view from 3rd floor, it was SO much more high up.

Can see the Arc de Trimophe over in the distance.

Me being a tourist on the 3rd floor.

Walking back to the hotel at about 11.30pm.

It was amazing! The night was SO clear and fresh and you could see for miles and miles. It was definitely the highlight for me.

Tomorrow I'll post the rest of the snaps of our last day.

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Paris Trip (part 1).

I'm home from Paris! To cut a long story short it started out bad but once all the chaos with cancelled flights and stuff was sorted it was awesome!

Our hotel was about a 7 minute walk from the Champs Elysee and Arc de Trimophe, so we were right in the middle of everything. I did ALOT of walking and my feet/legs still hurt today!

So basically I'm going to do my 'Paris posts' in 3 parts and all will picture heavy so be prepared! This post is of our first full day.

Concorde

View of Eiffel Tower from Concorde

Louvre

Me plodding along outside the Louvre

Alot of the ceilings were like this inside the Louvre, so nice!

And there was a REAL mummy!

Notre Dame cathedral

Notre Dame

The front of Notre Dame, I wanted to go in but the queue was ridiculous.

The Pompidou Center

The front, we didn't go in, the art inside ain't my cuppa tea, but the square is nice and full of street performers.

Ok that's it for part 1. Tomorrow I will post what we did in the evening - which is up to the top of the Eiffel Tower! Obviously a perfect opportunity for some lovely snaps :).

Weekend Nails + Treats!

I didn't have work on Saturday so me and the boyf decided to go charity shopping (I didn't get anything) and spend too much money on American sweets and drinks - Twinkies' are my new favorite treat!

Here were my polka-dot nails for that occasion:

Poolside Blue - No.7

Snow White - Models Own

Then today I had work and conveniently changed my nails for that occasion too:

Barry M - Mint Green

As you can see it's been a relaxed sort of weekend, my mum however popped to Totnes and got me a couple little treats:

Cute Paris postcard.
