New Homeware Buys.

Hello!

I've been going a little homeware mad at the moment, I've found some bargains and can't help but pick them up as I go along. Like I said in my last post I've got some exciting news and I will fully share when It's 100% done but most of you can probably guess by now :p

I'm going to share some of my latest homeware buys from Primark and Tiger, just a couple cute bits I've seen on my wander into town:

Pusheen Cushion - eBay.
Cloud/Rain Cushion - Tiger.

Rain Drop Notebook - Tiger
Mint Chevron Dustpan - Primark.
Lint Rollers - Primark - £1.50 Bargain and such an essential!

I've actually bought alot more but from different stores etc and they are such nice pieces that I kinda want to give them their own post haha!

I'm on day 2 of 3 off from work as I'm working the weekend so I get a short week. I love to just relax, I've been re-watching The Killing which is on Netflix, if you haven't seen it I highly recommend it, it's a great crime drama.

I've also been addicted to the Periscope app - if you are on there add me: cowbiscuits

Hope you are having a great week x

What I Bought: Outfit Haul.

Oh Heyyy!

Today I want to share with you a few new clothing items I bought with my 2nd paycheck from my new job. I headed into town on payday and decided to treat myself to a few new items for my wardrobe:

Circle Sunglasses - New Look.
Ringer T-Shirt - New Look. (I own it in Blue too)
Super High-Waisted Skinny Jeans - New Look.

Bunny Face Crop Pyjama Top - Primark.
Def wearing this outside of bed too! So cuutee.

Secret Shapers Underwear - Primark. These are a GOD SEND!!
Frilly Socks - Primark
Mint Spotted Bra - Primark.

Hello £5 for a cute little smock dress! Thankyou Primark.
Also the grey T-shirt high-neck dress was only £8 in Primark too.

I was dead pleased with all my purchases, it felt nice to actually buy new clothes instead of feeling insecure in my current ones.

In other news I went to see The Prodigy on the weekend which was so good! Despite not being able to get wasted due to work at 8am the next morning, I still danced hard with my pals but was home before midnight! :)

I have some exciting news coming up soon, I'm just waiting for some confimations and things to go through before I reveal all (if you follow me on Twitter you may already have guessed!) but watch this space ;)

Hope you are having a great week!

High n' Dry - outfit post.

Hello, Hello, Hello!!

Well this weather is freaking gross! I've been swept sideways every day, had NO snow and been soaked constantly!

Lucky for me I bagged myself a Rains rainproof coat for Xmas so I'm dryyy (well my top half anyway!). The coat is short enough to look good with a skirt, tights and boots but also long enough to cover me enough if I'm wearing leggings and a baggy top to work with trainers.

I also got a Fjallraven Kanken backpack which I featured in my Christmas post.
This too hold off the rain keeping my essentials totally dry.

"If you want a Rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain!" - Preach it Dolly! 

I got these rip-off Timberlands from Primark for a quarter of the price. They serve me so well and also keep the rain off!

I'm currently having such a positive week which feels amazing, I know we all get down days but if you apply a little positivity to your day and start off feeling good then the rest of the day goes by smoothly :)

Hope you are having a great week!

In Utero - outfit post.

Hello!

Hope your week is going well, it's finally Friday and I'm so excited for a lay-in tomorrow!

Today I have an outfit post to share, it's great for warm days - not so great for this crazy rain we've had all week:

Sunglasses - Topshop
Kimono - Primark
Top - ebay
Jeans - Primark
Shoes - H&M

I love this kimono so much, I picked it up in Primark last month, it's really sheer, a beautiful print and really soft material.

I couldn't resist the cheapy Nirvana tank, In Utero is definitely their best album and it reminds me of my teenage years.

This always happens in Summer - I seem to want to always wear jeans! I never wear jeans except for in these warmer months which makes no sense at all! I've been trying to watch my weight again which is hard for me as I love food so much but eating healthy does make me feel much better. I'm hoping to start some exercise next month but the only thing with joining a gym is that by the time I get home from work I'm so tired and being on my feet all day means my legs ache too - like right now! I was going to go out but then I took my shoes off and now I can't move from the sofa :p

Hope you have a great weekend, I'm getting tattooed tomorrow for the first time in a year - can't wait!

White Platformed Sandals.

Phewww! What a week it's been!

Finally back to work today after my wild week off. I went to Birmingham to see the amazing Prince in concert - it was incredible! Then I was down to Devon until yesterday when I came home to watch the band The Chameleons who were as brilliant as they were when I saw them last in Berlin. If you want to check out some pictures from my past week then head over to my Instagram.

When I was down in Devon me and my mum popped into Primark where I spotted these super cute little white platformed sandals:

The platform is super tiny which is perfect for me as I can't walk in much higher!

As you can see they are made of thin faux leather but have a soft cushioned sole and they don't rub at all. I think they were £8 which you really can't go wrong with if you want to try this style out although I thought they looked a little strange at first they go with everything and are so cute and comfy!

What do you think of this style shoe? I've already got a huge wishlist of more I've found in different colours from different sites!

I hope you had a great week/end too.

Kimono Skater Dress - Wedding Outfit post.

As I mentioned a couple weeks back I went back to Devon last weekend for a wedding. 

It was a great day, the weather wasn't so great but it was all inside a marque so everybody was dry. It was a boozy affair (our party favours were home-made spirits) but luckily I got to spend a few days in Devon recovering!

Here is the dress I wore, I dyed my hair Pearl Blonde again and only wore a couple of little silver rings as the dress was embellished: 

Dress: ASOS

Shoes: Primark

Although I look pretty chunky here (much to my dismay!) but I'm thinking it may be the skater style skirt with the kimono embellished top half doesn't photograph well! 

Anyway I do love the dress and it's really pretty.

This weekend I was still poorly, I rested, partied (a tiny bit) and also went to watch Merthyr Town loose the playoffs sadly not make it into the next league.

Hope you had a great weekend!

Wonder Product: Primarks Super Cosy Leggings.

Today I want to share with you my new favorite item of clothing, it may not be glamorous but it is essential in this freezing weather! I hope everybody is keeping safe in the insane winds, it's actually so scary!

My new wonder product is the Primark 'Super Cosy' Leggings. They are actually branded as tights however they are footless, super thick and have the same outside feel as your normal leggings and they are basically the normal leggings but with a furry inside. I wear my leggings around the house to keep warm and also at work as I'm constantly moving and need something flexible and comfortable to wear. 

Primark Super Cosy Leggings - £6
Jumper Dress - H&M

I love them, they keep me so so warm! Have you tried these little geniuses yet?

The Big Day - outfit post.

A little different outfit post for you today - this is the dress I wore to my Mothers wedding last weekend.

It took me so long to choose a dress, we're not really a traditional kinda family, the wedding reception was in a local pub and we ate chicken kebabs for the meal (as well as other food!) so I didn't want your usual kinda fancy looking dress. I actually bought 3 from ASOS and tried them all but this one was the clear winner! 

The pub (you can see the outdoor seating) was right on this beautiful river.

Casio Watch - TheWatchHut
I usually wear my gold Casio but as I was wearing silver rings this went so well! I love it!

The 'Button Hole' Flowers I had to wear.

My nails for the wedding.

It was a lovely day in such a beautiful location!
Congratulations to my Mum and Simon and I'm actually back down in Devon again this weekend to visit my Australian cousin who came down as a suprise for the wedding!

Take care <3 p="">x

Fluffy Jumper - outfit post.

Last weekend we took a trip down to the Mumbles in Swansea. The weather was perfect so we walked all down the harbour, got an amazing ice cream (mine was black cherry and vanilla) and then found a little rocky beach to explore.

This is the outfit I wore:

In Autumn/Winter I basically live in a skirt and jumper and I recently picked up a black fluffy jumper from Primark for £10. I'd seen them in Topshop about 20 minutes previously for £45 (or £35 for a cropped one) and couldn't really say no to the bargain. I know the quality won't be as good and also Topshop did have some amazing colours but i couldn't justify the price-tag for such a similar item! I really hope Primark do some more fun colours like this mint fluffy jumper or this multi coloured fluffy jumper.

Fluffy Jumper - Primark
Dress - Topshop
Boots - River Island
Hair-Bow - Primark

It's so soft and fluffy!

One of my favourite beach things to do - collect awesome rocks and pebbles then arrange them.

Are you feeling the fluffy jumper this season?

Ghosts and Black Cats - outfit post.

In the spirit of the 1st of October and Halloweens approach - I decided to crack out the Halloween themed outfit post early:

Ghost Jumper - Primark
Dress - H&M
Cat Tights - c/o Fashion Union
Vans - I've had for 6 years.

I love Ghosts and I love cats so this is perfect, it's just a cheeky little Halloween themed goofy outfit :)

Me and Ross were messing about with the camera settings and realised the long exposure in the night-time made it look all firey and ghosty. It was so fun!

I'm super excited for October it's truly a great month!

Little Checkered Dress - outfit post.

It's been so sunny/warm/stuffy here in Cardiff this month that I just haven't worn tights in SO long, I am constantly in little day dresses. 

This is a dress my mum picked out for me (well done mum!) on a recent visit to see me. I love anything like this country girl style and it's been such a great investment for this weather: 

Dress - River Island
Shoes - H&M
Sunglasses - Primark
Heart Necklace - c/o Trashy Doll

What have you been wearing to keep cool?

All Dressed Up For A Wedding - outfit post.

As I said in my previous post, this bank holiday weekend I headed up to Manchester for my cousins wedding. 

It took me forever to find my dress - it had to be wedding-y but it had to be me!

Here is what I wore:

Embellished Summer Skater Dress - ASOS

Nude Heels - Primark

This bad boy set me back £85 (not easy for an unemployed lass!). It is the perfect fit for me in a size 8.
There is a silky slip underneath two lots of puffy-prom Tulle (it didn't itch one bit) with that super cute floral design, in sewn-on sequins and pearls, running up the sides.

Close up of the detail. I love the neon and pastel mix.

The beaded neckline. This was also on the sleeve-line too - such cute detail really made it worth the price!

I teamed it with this dainty little rose-gold and pearl skull bracelet. 

And wore this cutie Limited-Edition ASOS crystal hair-brooch.

My hotel was AMAZING - you can check it out on this website (The Mere Golf Resort & Spa). We had the most amazing breakfast every morning and also the wedding reception was held here - the food was incredible!  

The wedding itself was gorgeous, the decoration was so beautiful and of course the Bride looked fabulous! I won't post any pictures on here as I want to keep my family's special day private however you have to trust me - best dress ever! 

2 sinks! Heaven!

I spent yesterday in the park with my friends, sipping wine and being silly. I've had the best weekend!

How did you spend your bank holiday?
