Shoesies and true love.

I was going to post a picture of my new shosies but my webcam camera has decided to stop working (thank God I bought a new digital camera yesterday)! Probably because I drop my lappy t so much! The shoesies are bronze metallic brogues from New Look and I bought them for £3!


I am still the bargain queen :)

I am not the happiest ruler of bargain land though. I am very ill with some kind of chest infection/tummy ache and I have a whole load of work to do! I haven't been to Uni in 6 days and it feels like I'm going to end up being swamped. I hope not because the weekend ahead has many special plans and I don't want to end up having to do research instead.

This weekend is Valentine’s Day. I've never really been a fan and I've even hosted a whole day at my house for my friends called 'Anti-Valentine’s Day'. It was so much fun but this year I am spending it with my gorgeous boyfriend and his family. It happens to be his Mum's birthday two days before and because her husband is taking her to Rome as a present (very jealous!!!), we are celebrating her birthday on Sunday night. My boyfriend (Daniel) and I are in charge of preparation, so I know that I will end up buying crazy banners and flowers to decorate with. Excited! Oh, and many, many sparkly balloons! ANYWAY, Daniel and I haven't really got anything planned for ourselves and we've said "no presents" so I might get up really early and make him breakfast in bed :) I owe him so much and I don't mean money-wise. This is why I don't want to buy him anything. As Jimmy Eat World say - "This things you buy will someday leave you." Haha, how pretentious of me?



I hope everyone has a lovely Valentine’s Day :)

What's new in my wardrobe?

My friends say that I need shopping therapy. This is very true:








Naval officers and vodka.



So one of my close friends, Natasha, is turning 21 in a few weeks. My group of girlies and I are travelling to Oxford to celebrate and are all dressing up as something beginning with N. The obvious choices: nurse, naughty nurse, naughty sailor, nerd, ninja were all ones I thought lightly about, but then decided that I wanted to be a little bit different. So I've decided on 'naval officer'. This way, I can still look and feel good but not end up with the same costume as everyone else!

Here is my costume so far:


I found this fantastic hat on Ebay! I hope it fits on my oddly large head.



I also found this skirt on Ebay. GOD, I love it! Ebay, that is.

To add to the outfit I will also be wearing a white shirt, navy tie, long white socks and some blue heels!

 I just need to get them first.

Although it does look like I might end up being a naughty sailor (especially as I’m taking a rather large bottle of vodka with me!). Oh well!




Happy shopping!

New hair, new hat.


Not a brilliant pic - it's actually extremely bright. I laaarve it.

A day of Jeremy Kyle and Quavers

It's another lazy day - I just cannot concentrate on work this week. I have another day off tomorrow (life is sweet) so I will probably try and focus then. Oh no, WAIT! Two of my bestest midget friends (they're just short and I'm nearly 6 ft) are coming home because of 'boy troubles'. I love girly nights - food, film and moaning about everything. What else do you need?

These booties are what else I needed (hehe). £18 reduced from £40 on sale from the New Look wesbite:



Another 'wonder of cheapness' that I've experienced this week were these Miss Sixty jeans for dun dun dunnnn £20! Ebay is the best way to shop, I tell ya'!



I think I'd make a great personal shopper - I'd save someone so much money! EMPLOY ME :D

Lazy days are still shopping days.

Last night was the first girly sleepover I have had a in a while. Although, I don't do it American styley - we watch a film and sleep in separate rooms to avoid moodiness in the morning. The best way seeing as my friend Char did not awake until 1pm!

We've spent the day eating, as you do on a day off, and watching films. We've gone from Teachers, to quiche, to a Channel 4 documentary following a group of rich, middle class girls being douchebags, to 8 Mile and finally we are currently watching Red Dragon. I love how messed up this film is and I hope it doesn't ruin my appetite. Oh yeah, we also ordered Dominos. Mmm mmm!

Ebay was another part of my day and here is what I have purchased:




The blazer was 75p. I KID YOU NOT! All products are from River Island :D

The Library on a Monday morning.

The main reason I haven't got up to get out more books is because my dress is too short and everyone will see my arse.

And because we're having too much fun not doing anything:
