Insta-Month July

Winning Top Fan with Disney Couture UK // My First “in public” Outfit of the Day // Ariel Cosplay at LFCC
My Little Sister’s Birthday Cake // New Blog Layout // Ice Cream Floats in the Sun
Gluten Free Pancakes Made by the Sis // British BBQ in the Rain // Looking after Peggy for my Mum

The highlights were… LONDON FILM AND COMICON OF COURSE! It was all kinds of epic especially the part where I got to cosplay! It’s now a new addiction. Attending a wedding reception for the first time in years, not the wedding part but spending time with people I hadn’t seen in a while. Planning Bloggers Do Disney with Kayleigh & Josie.

Some things I have been loving… I want to say the sun and the fact it’s been so hot, but in all honesty, I’m not. This country isn’t equipped for hot weather and Little Miss has developed terrible eczema due to getting so sweaty! Spending time with my sister because she’s had two weeks off work. Shooting outfit posts outside.
My favourite purchase.. I’m just going to say everything I bought at LFCC. I can’t wait to share my haul post with you in a few days time.
Biggest regrets have been… Again, not saving enough. Thankfully i’m well on track for my trip and everything is now paid for so all I need to do is get the rest of my spending money together.
Next month I hope… Everything goes to plan, it’s going to be such a crazy month and I really hope nothing happens.
Next month I’m looking forward to… GOING TO AMERICAAAA! So excited to final visit DC and see Niagara Falls. Obviously i’m looking forward to hanging in NYC too especially now that I have tickets to see Aladdin!

July has been such a dead month apart from LFCC. Mainly because every single penny I have at the moment is accounted for. I mean it’s no bad thing because the only thing I’ve splurged on is a few choice pieces for my trip that I can use next year and joining The Glitterati. Having no money means not even being able to make plans to go visit friends which again, sucks. I’m glad i’ve left all of September before I start saving for Florida so I can at least pencil in some trips in the run up to Christmas. I have really REALLY missed my parents and i’m so glad they’re back tomorrow. I didn’t realise how much I relied on them. It’s been so nice to spend time with my little sister and nephew, and even having a barbeque at my parents so we could pamper the cat, but it’s not the same.

Finally, please please PLEASE can you nominate Cocktails in Teacups for Best Lifestyle Blog in the North East Blogger Awards. I know there are a LOT of fantastic lifestyle blogs up here but it would really mean the world to me!

Hope you had a good July and that you have an even better August!

    I love your Instagram posts – you’ve got a good eye for great pics! Also, I hope you have a lovely time in America!!! DC is an amazing area (I got to go several years ago!). If you have the chance, definitely try to make it to the National Zoo – you’ll see adorable panda bears IN REAL LIFE!!!
    Bon voyage!
