Outfit of the Day – Birthday Girl
Twenty six years ago, at 3:17am weighing a tiny 5lbs 9.5oz and twelve days late, I was arrived. Today it’s my birthday and I’m not officially closer to thirty than to twenty which is a scary prospect. Compared to last year, 2014 is proving to be a more enjoyable year, and I really hope this continues now that i’m twenty six. I have been celebrating since last weekend when two of my best friends came to stay and we celebrated by hitting my hometown for drinks and the best steak of my life, but more on that next week. And yesterday my mum baked me a cake (see above) and…

Outfit of the Day – O is for Owl
FINALLY this place has some sun! Yesterday when everywhere else in the country was bathed in sunlight it was grey an miserable up here, so I’d given up hope on Spring again, but then this morning I woke to sun shining in. It makes me so happy when the sun shines. I loved getting dressed this morning and putting on make up. I’ve taken some photos and I’m going for a walk with Little Miss. I hope this carries on for the rest of the week, since it’s my BIRTHDAY WEEK (I’m celebrating it a LOT this year, sorry!) I’m starting to have a love affair with my camera. I’m…

Outfit of the Day – Orange County Girl
As you’re aware, I’m not an Orange County girl, in fact I usually don’t like orange, but I do like terracotta or burnt orange. I’m picky like that! But anyway, I was just looking for some song lyrics with orange in when I came across this Gwen Stafani one and I just HAD to listen to her on Spotify. I love Gwen, and I love No Doubt. And so it was decided that this post would be called as such. Glamorous Lace Skater Dress (ancient), Thrifted Black 3/4 Length Sleeve Top £7.99, H&M Woodland Copse Floral Crown in Rust £15, Crown and Glory Belt (from another dress), Primark Black Tights…

Outfit of the Day – Lucky Denver Mint
Wow, it’s really been ages since I did an outfit post, so much for my resolution to do them weekly! I put it down to the bad weather, having the flu and Little Miss being under the weather. But I’m back today with one. I wanted to share the beautiful French Connection dress I received that I plan to wear out to dinner when the girls come visit me the week before my birthday. The sun was out this morning when I took these photos and it made me feel so happy, like perhaps this dreadful weather wasn’t going to last forever and eventually we’ll have Spring. This dress really…

Outfit of the Day – Skin White as Snow
I’m so glad I took these photos earlier on today because as the day has worn on I’ve felt myself coming down with something so I really want to spend the next few hours curled up on the sofa with my book. My dad and sister have had this wicked cold for a few weeks, then my mum and Little Miss caught it and now from the tightness of chest and sore ear I’m pretty sure I’ve got it. Typical with it being Little Miss’ birthday next week! Despite the fact my sister was feeling rubbish, she twisted my arm this afternoon to meet up with her and my nephew…

Outfit of the Day – I’m Not a Princess, This Ain’t a Fairy Tale
Last night I surpassed 100,000 views on my blog. What an achievement! I couldn’t believe it when I logged in this morning to start this post and I was over the 100,000 views mark. I did actually “woop” with joy. It’s so nice to know people read my blog even if it’s not really all about that. My blog is what keeps me going on those bad days (well aside from Little Miss) I’m always looking for something to write about. It would be lovely to reach the 200,000 mark by next January! Here’s to hoping! As I mentioned last week, I’m trying to post more outfits. I do like…
