Just a quick outfit post of what I wore today.  It's been lovely and sunny but not quite warm enough to venture out in summer clothes yet, so thought add some bright summer colour to my outfit.  Not the best of pictures but only had two seconds to snap a quick picture before leaving the house.



Just a quick little post to show you what I got from Primark last weekend.  They've got lots of lovely things in there at the minute but unfortunately my bank balance won't allow me to have it all.  After several trips to the changing rooms, because I had so much stuff I had to swap items twice as I was over the item limit, I finally decided on these...

I have been on the hunt for a nice simple black bag for a while now that's not too big but big enough to fit all mine (and Riley's) stuff in.  Yes going out with Riley is like taking a baby out, you have to be prepared, my bag essentials now include puppy treats, dog toys and poo bags.  Good job I haven't done a what's in my bag post, I'd be a little afraid of what I might find in there now.  Every bag I've seen is the wrong size, not really my style or too expensive, so I was delighted when I saw this one in Primark, it's just the right size and I love satchels.  What I loved about it most though was the price... £5!!  Such a steal in the sale and it seems really good quality too.


This dress was £16 and I love how simple it is but the collar and little faux pocket stop it from being too plain and can be styled in many different ways.


This top was £8 it looks very pale in this photo but it is a really nice pastel lemon colour.  It is quite sheer, but not a problem that a simple vest won't solve, and I love the little white collar and scallop detailing.


I haven't actually counted these bangles but there are quite a few, which I think was good value for £3.  I love stacked bracelets and I thought these simple gold ones would be perfect fo stacking with larger bangles.

I also got a t-shirt but I have pretty much living in it so it's in the wash, but I'm sure you'll see it at some point in an outfit post.  It's so easy to wear and is such a nice fit.

Have you managed to find any steals lately?

I have done my nails like this a few times now and I love how subtle but interesting they look.  There's a few tutorials online for these nails but I thought I'd do my own little one for you all and include a few tips that I have learnt along the way.

You will need:

A nude or pale nail polish - I used Nails Inc in Basil Street

A top coat - I have recently discovered LA. Colors nail polish and am really impressed with them so I will do a post on them another day.

Newspaper Cuttings - One for each finger nail, try to make sure you cut a square that is full of text with no sentence endings or new paragraphs as you will end up with blank spots when it is transferred to you nails.

 If you like you can apply a base coat and then paint your nails with you colour of choice.  The paler, the better, so that the print stands out.

 Then dip your nail into the alcohol making sure the nail is fully soaked and carefully but firmly apply the newspaper.

Once you have applied the paper to each nail, rub each one firmly for 30 seconds but be careful not to move the paper so that the print doesn't smudge.  Then carefully peel off each piece of newspaper and repeat with the other hand.  Also be careful not to let the alcohol dry too much as it become quite sticky and may make the newspaper difficult to peel off and rip.
Then apply your top coat to set the print and prevent it from smudging.
