Snapshots of Summer 2014

Am having a pretty enjoyable summer so far and surprisingly the weather has been decent!

A Snapshot of Christmas 2013

StyleSnaps: Bargains and beauty spots

Sometimes I go a bit mad and let the € signs get the better of me. The cheaper the better. I love having a brag about how I got a beautiful item at the most ridiculous price. Most of the time these items get worn once and then live in the back of the wardrobe...

Something Accquired

Not only have I benefitted from that time of year when I press the refresh button on my wardrobe for a new season, but I've acquired the cast offs of my aunt's wardrobe as well! Which is almost as good as the feeling of having bought a new item of clothing-no price tag and I like the challenge of adapting something to my own taste.

 Not sure about the peaking mid-drift. I shall have to think on it before I wear this in a public place (because of the cold if nothing else!)

Thinking of doing up a poll for "Best Skirt"...have to come up with a better title first!

Hint #3

Rosy Lips, crimson nails and fluttering eye lashes....

January

Well hello there!

 

Seriously long time no blogging-I guess I've just been out having too much fun, making the most of what is my final year in college! So I intend to inform of my year so far in as little as time as possible in the coming days :)

January involved the obligatory New Year's drinks, nights on the town, reuniting with old friends-and a much needed haircut!

Winter in Warsaw

I recently went to Poland to visit my best friend who is studying there for a few months. There's nothing nicer than a sunny day with blue skys where its icey cold and the air is crisp. I tried to match my clothes with icey and baby blue shades, broken up with pinks and reds. I don't ever feel the need to go black, brown, navy or grey once winter sets in!
It was nice to get in touch with the things that matter again; just having fun with a friend for the sake of fun. College and life was beginning to get a little heavy. Shopping, walks in the park, coffee breaks, make-up, more coffee, good food, hair dos, cocktails-They were a sure way to make sure that I came home feeling de-stressed and ready for the Christmas season :)

My beautiful best friend and I had much fun with a little photo shoot of our own.

Fancy Dress...

...so em...I'm a little late with this post....but seeing as Holloween is over and neither of my Halloween costumes were all that sppoky I guess I can share them with you anyway ;)

The Queen of Hearts:
hand made card collar and crown
and I was handing out little red hearts all night!

My other also involved white make up and red lips....

...my trusty Japanese Geisha costume!
