This is yesterday's post that didn't work, stupid laptop :/

Spent this weekend traveling to and having fun in Leeeeds :) Went with some friends to stay with our friend who moved there last year, I have a previous post in August from our first visit over there. This time we only stayed Saturday night, but she threw a house party and invited her uni and work mates which was really nice! We ended up all sat on the floor playing Ring of Fire. The punishment for if you broke the circle of cards or any of the rules made, you had to eat five TABLESPOONS of this orange vodka jelly - It was not pleasant but we soldiered on! Had a really good laugh, went for a pub lunch on Sunday before our coach home, I'll be uploading some photos when I get my film developed this week.


Also had our first Newsday in Online today, it was only a practise but I still feel we did really well. Each member in our group did about three stories each, we all managed to upload them onto Dreamweaver, and we were done with about ten minutes to spare.. Winners! :P
My outfit today's very bluuue and 99% from H&M, although I am really happy. It's so comfy, especially the slouchy top, which looks nicer in person. I think I need to buy some more jeggings too, as soon as I put them in the wash, I miss them. Is that sad?

Photos were taken once I was home from uni so the big light had to go on haha, I definitely look better when the sun's out!



I'm super happy too as when I got home from Leeds before crashing onto my bed with a cuppa and a KFC salsa twister, my dad had fixed my favourite ring. It's been broken for about six months and I was gutted, I bought it from
Flashback Boutique in Liverpool for about £4? It's gorgeous!



Shirt, vest, jewellery, jeggings - H&M; Green heart ring - Flashback Boutique; Nails - Barry M Indigo

I'm off to see Jack soon and have a lazy night watching the Back to the Future films, really excited ^_^ Then tomorrow I'm off uni so I'll hopefully finish my to-do list.

Just a little post on some things I've allowed myself to buy since Christmas. I've somehow resisted the sales this year - some of my friends went and said they were disappointed and ended up buying things that were still full price, so I decided not to bother and save my pennies for something awesome!

This necklace hook was essential for me and my sanity - for the past few years, my jewellery has been hanging on drawing pins in my walls! I was forever moving furniture due to certain items falling off and what have you.
And before you say, I'm not really a fan of jewellery boxes, too much faffing about!



But I saw this beauty on Urban Outfitter's website for £7, unfortunately can't find it on there anymore, but there are several alternatives that are just as cute - 1, 2, 3, 4.
I'm really pleased that I found this, it makes this corner of my room look so much prettier :)



In town last week, I only bought a necklace, bracelet, tshirt and a new bag, all from H&M, furthering my obsession! But in all honest, I needed the bag as my current one has a holey lining and I kept losing my keys when I was on my doorstep, desperate to get inside! It fits my uni books, food and bits and bobs in it, and for £14.99 I can't really complain.

The cameo necklace was an impulse buy, but I've wanted one for ages, and this one has a really long chain so I love it. and I already have the bracelet in cream and black, which have sadly broken so I tied them together, the blue one will be a nice addition to my Spring wardrobe :)


Bag: £14.99. Necklace: £3.99. Bracelet: £1.99 - All H&M.


Have you found any hidden treasures in H&M recently?

Haven't done an outfit post in quite some time, so thought I'd show you what I wore to Jack's last night. (I cheated and took these about an hour ago as I didn't have time to last night, explaining why my face and hair isn't exactly up to scratch!)
I'm quite proud of myself for having the time to do several posts this week, but as I explain further down, I won't have much time this coming week to post, so this is to make up for that I suppose :)



Skirt, shirt - H&M; Belt - New Look; Tights - Primark; Owl necklace - Tammy @BHS

I ordered this top off the H&M online sale, and it's gorgeous, so comfy even though the material's super-thin. It's more than long enough to be a dress, but I prefer it tucked into a bodycon skirt and pulled out slightly to give a baggy/voluminous look. I added the tights to give the outfit a bit of fun/variety. I wore it with my army boots and chunky grey socks, a grey cardie, my snood and winter coat so I was nice and toasty on the walk over.

I have a fun but busy week ahead of me - Online report's due in Tuesday, so I'm spending tonight and tomorrow finishing that bad boy off, and Tuesday night, a friend from uni invited me to go see Frankie Boyle in the Echo Arena - like I'm gonna turn that down! I know he's in the press at the moment for the controversial comments he made towards Katie Price's son, Harvey, but I'm hoping he doesn't bring that up in the show as I still like him as a stand up.
We finally finish uni on Thursday, so we're all coming into town to Scream for a big lunch and a good drinking session. It's about bloody time since we haven't been out as a uni group at all and we're half way through our second year! I'm looking forward to it though, should be fun!

What're you up to this week? Any of you still stuck in uni?

As sad as it seems, within ten minutes of H&M launching online, I was on the website quicker than a tramp on hot chips.
I've always loved H&M, the majority of my wardrobe is from there, so it only makes sense that I use the website as often as possible.
However, when I came to purchasing on the website, it kept stopping me for some reason; I don't know if you can only buy using a credit card or what, but it annoyed me - has anyone else had this problem or is it just me?

So I popped into the shop on my way home from work Saturday, and spotted the bracelets I'd been eyeing up on the website, obviously I'd rather have them sooner than later; and I spied a gorgeous pocket watch necklace - it's only a sticker, not a real clock, but for £2.99 I can't complain!


Bracelets - £1.99, Necklace - £2.99

The bracelets are gorgeous, they have little sparkly gems in some of the "charms", and some are heart-shaped. They're a little big for my childish wrists, but clipping them together seems to work well.
The necklace has a pretty ornate design scratched into it, giving it an old-fashioned feel, almost like a pocket watch.


In Superdrug they had Amor Amor by Cacharel for just £12.99, with student discount it came to about £10. I've been after this perfume for ages, and while it's not exactly a big designer name, it smells better than most I tried out.
The bottle's so dinky and I love the tiny black flower sketched into the back of it.




Finally, in Boots I remembered I had the £5 No. 7 voucher from my mum, and when nothing really caught my eye I saw the huge range of lipsticks they had.
The assistant didn't seem all that bothered to help me - possibly because I'd been caught in the rain so my hair was atrocious, had my grey hoody and work uniform on, so I definitely stood out from the other well groomed and polished customers around the stand :|
I couldn't be bothered waiting to beg her to help me, so I covered my hand in swatches, and picked my favourite, which was "Pink Crush" from the Moisture Drench collection.




It goes on a deep fuschia, maybe a little too bright for my pale features, so when I wear it out I'll tone it down with nude lipgloss ontop.
I was hoping to get a nude colour, but they didn't have any in my branch, so if anyone has one that they would like to swap for mine, please send me an email :)

What have you been snapping up with the No. 7 vouchers?

Since it's my 50th post, I thought I'd treat you all to some new outfit posts - finally. Gosh I'm so exciting I can't move from the edge of my seat...
It's just outfits from the past week or so when I've remembered to take a photo.
I've stocked up on some new hair products which I'll review later this week too.


Jeans - River Island; Black vest, Blue vest and necklace - H&M.


I wore this last night to go for a meal at Red Hot - was delish! I recently re-found this necklace; I absolutely love it, but ahd to stop wearing it as it itched my neck. But my mum told me to put clear nail varnish on the back, and it works! In the close-up photo, you can see it says 'I love you' in different languages; it's also two-sided.


Vest, Cardigan - H&M; Skirt, Belt, Tights - Primark; Necklace - Vintage store online.


I wore this last Friday, going to town with Heather after our fun night out Thursday.
Totally lazy outfit, but it's soo comfy - and I looove my 'Cutest of Cupcakes' vest!


Hooded top - New Look; Jeans - River Island; Vest - H&M


And today's outfit was abit less exciting (haha) as we went for a pub lunch with family, so I tried to dress, ahem, 'politely', if that's at all possible?
(Apologies for the bad quality of the first one - dodgy flash and all)



Top, Skirt - H&M; Tights, Belt - Primark; Owl necklace - Bhs.



I'll probably find more photos later so I'll update this post after food!

If you're anything like me, this news will excite you more than anything!
It's probably old news to most by now, but the first I heard about it was skimming through my blogs this morning...


H&M are opening an online store 16 September!

I'll happily admit that the majority of my wardrobe comes from H&M, thanks to their high quality, yet low priced gotta-have-them clothes. It's usually the first place I go when on the hunt for new beauties to add to my bulging wardrobe; I dread to think how much I've spent in there over the years.
However, the new website will bring me much joy, especially since I can never seem to find anything in store that I see in magazines... apart from, of course, the greatly stressful hunt for my denim playsuit, as seen here back in April - nowhere had it for a good month or so after I'd seen it in about four magazines. Found a size 10, too big! Then I hunted high and low for a few weeks until I found a size 8 hidden away in a rail of Sale (it wasn't in the sale, sadly!) But I still love it to pieces and wear it as often as I can!
My boyfriend, Jack always comments on how young I look in it, but with my (21st!) birthday getting ever closer, I secretly like when people say I look younger than I actually am!


Do you have any favourite pieces from H&M you can't stop wearing?

I went to H&M after work on Saturday, and picked up a couple of slouchy vests - £3.99 each, absolute bargain since they'll go with everything! H&M's usually where I initially go for basics and slouchy stuff, but they're amazing for key pieces too.
Wanted to put up some new outfits as I've lived in those vests this weekend. I've added a photo of the playsuit I bought again from H&M earlier this year - hands down the comfiest thing I could pull from my wardrobe.
Despite Jack telling me I look about 5 in it, I love it to pieces :)


(Also, apologies for the red-eye in the photos; couldn't turn it off my stupid camera)


Vest, £3.99, Jeans - Primark, £7.99; Belt; £3.50 - Vintage

Vest, £3.99, Skirt, £7.99, Necklace, £2.99

Playsuit, £24.99, Vest, £3.99


Also, myself, Heather & Andri have planned a little 3-day adventure to see Donna, who's just moved into a flat in Leeds; she's all by herself this week so we're popping down for a few nights to keep her company, check out the shops and best places to go for a drink and a dance!
Will keep you posted, hopefully lots of photos to come :)
