I need a doughnut.

Sooo. It’s currently 1.20am and I haven’t slept properly for nearly a week. I’ll still be awake at 3 and then be up at 6 and it won’t be ‘cause I’m hungry, which is pretty much the only reason why I wake up early (in normal circumstances).

I have been starting the “see you soon” process and it’s getting harder every day. Also, why did I think planning a family meal the night before I fly was EVER a good idea? I’m going to be a snotty mess and potentially (100%) cry into my Thai Green curry. Not cool.

Really wondering how the eff I’m going to walk myself onto a plane that’s going to the other side of the world on Saturday.

That’s 3 days away. I’ve never felt so anxious than I have right now and I could really do with a doughnut.

I CAN DO THIS.

A woman’s life is nine parts mess to one part magic, you’ll learn that soon enough…and the parts that look like magic often turn out to be messiest of all

Biting The Bullet

Right! Today I officially started my Diploma in Interior Design.

I am ridiculously excited and can’t wait to start learning and developing a portfolio for the future. I have so much creativity and am surrounded by inspiration.

Finally finding myself.

And I can’t be happier ♡

VINTAGE FAIR ♡

Yay! So today I spent some pennies at a ‘vintage fair’ that came to town. Although it was more like going to Beyond Retro in Brighton (which I think is fab!)…not vintage glamour as my mum and sister were expecting!

Still, we had a good mooch and here is my ‘vintage’ haul…

#1 Paisley print scarf

I’ve been looking for something like this for ages. It’s the perfect colour and length, and goes with pretty much everything. I probably won’t be taking this off much this Summer.

#2 Green silk jacket

Love the print on this jacket/shirt! It has batwing arms and is on the little-bit-too-big-for-me side of things, but it is super cosy and will spice up a pair of jeans and a plain top. I’m sure I could shrink it a teeny bit too.

#3 Nautical silk t-shirt

I got this with the green jacket (£20 for 2 deal woop!) Again, a teeny bit big but hey its gorgeous and again, this will probs get worn to death. Reminds me of the Cartier scarves :)

#4 Printed skirt

Wheyyyy! First summery item purchased! The print reminds me of going on holiday. Have no idea why, it just does. Just need a really good tan, my Converse and a crop top. And it was only £8! BOOM.

Ta dah!

NAILS ♥

I love Saturday evenings! Especially when I can have the TV to myself! So whilst I catch up on Game Of Thrones, I prettied my nails.

#1 Nail Envy from O.P.I

I bought lots of mini bottles of this from ebay and they’ve lasted ages! I find it really helps to strengthen and encourage nail growth. I try to put on a coat every other day, but I don’t always remember! I normally do two coats for a base and then again as a clear top coat. I always carry a mini bottle in my handbag too, just in case!

#2 “Eternal Optimist” from Essie

Eeeeee! Essie is my new found fave! I find it really hard to choose colours, there are sooo many. This is a gorgeous colour and its perfect for any occasion and with any outfit. It dries quickly and goes on really smooth. I can’t wait to buy more :)

#3 “Star Shower” from No7

I decided to paint my ring fingernails this colour, and it has worked quite nicely with the Essie underneath. (Hard to see from the picture, but it has a lovely golden-blue sparkle) This is my fave sparkly nail varnish ♥

Ta dah! All ready for la weekend!

CATCH UP ♥ So, went out for a lovely little dinner this eve with the beauts from Topshop. We don't see each other often, so I really look forward to these little catch up sessions. So I wore my shiny new and so super soft Leigh jeans and decided I'd team it with some red lipstick and a stripy DP top. Yay for new Leighs! Must.get.more... Fi x

APRIL FOOL TREATS ♥

I am loving this “haul” stuff at the mo, which seems to be all over my instagram and tumblr, so I’m having a go!

My first diddy haul…

#1 HD Brows “Brow Beater”

Decided to buy this after getting my brows done today. The idea being that this will keep my brows neat and smooth until they need another touch up :)

#2 Topshop “Leigh” Ankle Grazers (aka jeans)

I ♥ Leigh jeans! They are the only type of jean/jeans (?) that I own and I have them in a variety of colours. I have been hanging on to my first pair for ages because they are a lovely colour blue but have been worn so much that they are literally falling to pieces! So, today I bought these babies in a darker shade. They aren’t the exact colour of my absolute fave Leighs, but its the closest I could get, but who cares when they are so bloody comfy!

Ta dah!
