From This Post

This dress is simple and a joy to wear. I'd make the ASOS Curve Playsuit my favourite but i technically didn't do an OOTD on it and i have a really strong feeling that i'm going to have some very good times in it very soon!!!


January was a great start to 2011 & i am so happy to be writing that!
Here's to February matching it's success...

The Future is Orange?

I keep seeing this and thinking i want it but I'm just not sure.
How do you all feel about orange?

Friday Night & an OOTD

I woke up today in the best mood, i've had a lovely weekend and today was just the icing on the cake.
I'll start at the beginning:

On Friday night me and two of my girls hit the town. It was incredibly messy and fun and amazing.

L to R: Frankie, Me and Hayley, i love these ladies.

As you can see i bought the ASOS Curve play suit, it's amazing and i wanted to save it for the plus blogger meet but i decided to use friday as a test night to see if it was comfy, it is, so expect to see more of it!
In a semi-drunken moment whilst Frankie was sorting out music me and Hay decided she should be on the blog. These are the results of that decision:

She's awesome, shout out to her i know she's reading : )

It really was a great night and it was so good to see these girls, all i could think of on Saturday was this song. . Our time together is pretty precious, come September we'll all be in different parts of the country studying so nights out like this will be a rarity, Exeter will be a quiet place with us all gone : )

Anyways, after recovering all day Saturday three other friends came over for dinner. I cooked a mean Macaroni and Cheese, we watched Anchorman which is stupidly funny and quotable. No pictures but a promise a good time was had!
After they left i took myself off to bed and woke up this morning to a beautiful day!

It was all clear skies and sunshine, lovely and just what the doctor ordered after months of grey days!

I cooked myself a really good breakfast of poached eggs & english muffins with a big cup of Earl Grey Tea then got dressed and finally we get to my OOTD (which for the record is picture heavy!)

TROUSERS:ASOS CURVE TOP:DOROTHY PERKINS SCARF:H&M CARDIGAN:EVANS RING:GIFT

Gotta love how i'm keeping it real in bed socks right?
The only mentionable thing here is the trousers really (well and the lovely ring that a friend bought me because, and i quote; "you like birds and flowers and shit" : D)
Bought them a while ago with these. I'd read that they ran a bit big and i totally agree, ASOS Curve trouser fitting is all over the place. I know i'm a strange shape but a lot of other bloggers say the same.
Negativity aside, they are super comfy and i have nothing bad to say (although a good few of my friends have nicknamed them the old lady trousers!)
For some reason though, wearing them reminded me of this:


So i started singing it and dancing and left my camera going on self timer, seriously the next two pictures are frigging hilarious.

I love my life ♥

Dress Me Up

ASOS Curve is hitting it out of the park day after day at the moment. Their dresses are pushing all the right buttons and i'd like to own at least these 4 before we hit summer 2011*:

1 // 2 // 3 // 4


I'm also currently dribbling over these items as well:

I'm a winter lover but i am more than ready for some lovely sunshine now. I have a huge collection of warm day outfits crammed into my head and very little patience. I also seem to be having some kind of love affair with colour at the moment which bodes well for the sunny days. I normally find myself in despair when something i love doesn't come in black but as you can see, my recent choices in items have bucked that trend.

Bring on the sunshine!



*ASOS Curve, i mention you in a very favourable light quite often and i was just wondering if you'd send me these for free? Thanks : )

OOTD: Cinderella

Last Saturday was the final performance of the Cinderella, the pantomime i was in this year.
I played Grizelda, Cinders' evil stepmother.
I had an amazing time and I'm gonna share a few photos : )

 

 

1: My lovely Drag Queen Daughter, Bimbo. And her sister Belle in the background.
2: Me and Steve, the guy who played my husband!
3: Buttons and Cinderella! AKA Dave and Kate, two lovely people!
4: Our two Horses who looked amazing with their fairy lights and horse hats.

I have about a million more pictures, especially from our last performance. But i won't bore you with them.


Anyway, on to the main point of the post.
Sunday night was the After show Party, it was a week later than normal but whatever, a party is a party!
I got quite dolled up, people at panto are used to seeing me in stage makeup with crazy bad hair from having to backcomb the hell out of it every night and i was on a bit of a mission to prove i could be presentable.

 

 DRESS:ASOS CURVE TIGHTS:EVANS NECKLACE:DIY

I have maayyjjahhh love for this dress, it was half price, fits amazingly well and is gorgeous. So happy i bought it! There's not much more to say on the outfit really.

I will however, very quickly mention that this colour is the worst one to wear when you have a habit of spilling wine down your front, it leads to people saying you have "Nipple Dribble" when you've just splashed a bit of rosé on your boob. You know who you are, person who shouted that across the pub : )

I re-cut my fringe in, which means it is a bit uneven but whatever. I was very bored and inspired by the hoards of hipster bloggers who have full and shiny fringes, i needed to try the whole thing again after a disastrous attempt in the summer when for some reason i just could not get along with my (hairdresser cut!!) fringe.

It's been so long since i did an OOTD the whole thing is feeling a bit strange.

Think i just need to get into the swing of things!
