Something to do on a rainy day...

We have had quite a few this Summer! So I have resorted to the good ol' arts n' crafts. needless to say I have had a tiny obsession with door stops. Why, you may ask, well who doesn't have a door or two? and they are incredibly cute and GREAT presents.

New street style!

Out on the streets of Bath yet again to find some fashionistas! These are the two that I came across. I am in love with the blue shoes! check them out,

Beauty regime disaster.

Total nightmare on the DIY beauty regime today. Waxing is NOT my forte. I swore I would never attempt it again after buying a Veet 'warm it up under the tap' roll on with wax strips included. Complete disaster, wax everywhere, painfull and just down right confusing!! How do people do this by them selves!! I decided it was not for me. However in my recent Elle I recieved a free wax strip (Veet sensitive) and tried it. It worked well. so I used my £1 off to invest in some Veet wax strips (easy peel-apparently). But My gosh was I wrong! I now know why I do not wax my self. #inneedofprofessionalhelp.

These are the strips that I tried. I tried it on my legs and under arms. They were pretty simple to use. Yes, there was an 'easy grip' and yes it did help having that extra piece to grip. the strips didn't leave a smooth finish and I had to tidy. The wax also left resedue on my skin which took forever to remove (even when using the after wipes- you only get 4, which don't seem enough) They smelt really nice as well. However I do not think I will be using them again. Complete disaster and just too complicated.

I will never do that to myself again. I will go to a salon and pay my money to sit back whilst someone else slaves to make melook presentable! Deary me. Rant over on the beauty side of things!

Work experience @ Mpdclick (Mudpie)

22nd August-2nd September. 2 weeks working with the Mpdclick team @ Mudpie trend forecasting company. VERY excited! I will write a full report of my time at the company when the time comes. But for now I'm just looking forward to it and planning my wardrobe!!

Sensible office wear!!

This jacket i tried on in Topshop a while ago but dismissed as the prices was too high. However now its £25 and Im in two minds as to whether I should buy it. Its not practical for a jacket because of the length of the body and arms, but its a flattering colour and would look great with many outfits! Plus its the perfect colour to complement the rest of my wardrobe. ahh what to do!

It would look great with a little black dress or leggings and heels, or even a casual outfit to snazz it up.

White is the new black

I don't own a white dress, I don't even normally wear white. But this Summer I plan to make myself my own white (ivory) dress. It will be made from silk dupion in ivory, strapless, boned and short- but modest. I think I need this in my wardrobe, I even have an event that I can wear it to soon, so I had better get making

Creative buzz

Ok, I've been on a bit of a mad one since coming back from uni. I have resorted to making alot of my own clothes as its cheaper and more rewarding! These are a few of the things that I've made.
