Nails of the day: Pastel pink and glitter

Im on maternity leave so can actually wear nail polish whoop whoop. Here is todays colour.



Nails inc Elizabath street (£11 in Debenhams or from £0.99 on ebay)  is a perfect pastel pink for the summer and as with all nails inc polishes I have tried eventho the colour is pale the pay off on your nails is great requiring only two coats for a good colour. This is great if like me your a new mum trying to do everything in nap time.


My second choice is Barry M Pink Sapphire Glitter (£2.99 at superdrug) I wear this over loads of different colour nail varnishes and it is my go to glitter for when I just want a bit go sparkle. It is made of of thin strips of a silver, bright pink hexagons and darker pink glitter particles.

Dress it up/ dress it down: Printed dress 2014

Dress it up/ dress it down: Printed dress


I love dress which can be worn both day or night and this printed number from Topshop is just perfect for my style. 

During the day it can be worn with a tassel backpack, sandals and a jacket whilst at night is is more than capable of withstanding an onslaught of bling perfect for those nights on the town. My choices are gold with a black heal however you could go wild with a magnitude of on trend coloured accessories.

Aztec prints 2014

Aztec prints 2014


Aztec prints are set to be huge in 2014 however be careful they can be difficult to wear. I have chosen this printed shirt as my Aztec print then paired it with simple blue jeans. Statement sunglasses (these don't need to be ray bans) and a bowler hat complete the look.

keeping it simple: printed shift dress

keeping it simple: printed shift dress


I have fallen for this TopShop printed shift dress. Id keep the accessories to a minimum and let the dress stand out from the crowd.

BTW if your wondering why I rarely feature coats in my outfits I'm very northern so would rather freeze……its my culture ;)

I no, I no its still winter however how pretty are these shorts. I have the most male like thighs a woman can have so city shorts are my saviour. I can imagine these paired with a dark t-shirt tights and leather right now then as above come summer. 

Im on a pre house purchase spending ban however I may need to make an exception for these beauties. 

What do you think?

The fitting room shot

You see it time and time again bloggers psing in Topshop, Riverisland, Zara, etc changing room so well vicky thought she would get in on the act. So here is my very badly taken pictures

Best overal shot 



Best shot of the clothes 





……………I need more practice if this is ever going to work 


As you may remember I used these trousers in my summer brights set



I love these trousers even more on however the size 8 just doesn't fit well round my post pregnancy bum so ill have to wait and see if they get a 10 in online to added them to my collection.



Happy Shopping

Monday shopping trip

Monday shopping trip


Working shifts means we get to shop when it's quite. Here is the sort of outfit I'm wearing ready to go. 

Also blue Monday yey

Lust/Must Gold watch

Lust/Must Gold watch


A fashion staple at an affordable price. I picked this gold watch up from river island to wear for work and surprisingly although I prefer my Michael Kors the river island offering is so much lighter its actually more comfortable to wear.
