Borrowed from Mum #1

Hey everyone :) Hope you're all having a lovely wet weekend. As some of you may have noticed I've changed the layout, I don't like the header though so that'll be going! Please tell me honestly what you think.

So recently, my mum has purchased some really great items which I keep 'borrowing'! She seems to have taken a liking to Topshop :D The only annoying thing is, she hasn't got the same sized feet as me and we're not the same size (I just wear her tops oversized) but I can't wear her skirts/trousers etc. Never mind though :)
First up, which arrived yesterday from ASOS is this gorgeous briefcase bag.

Wish list #2

Today was a classic example of me looking for something in particular (block heels) on a certain website (New Look) and completely loosing track of what I intended! Cheekily I comprised a whole list of things that I'd like to add to my wardrobe, all of which from New Look may I add.

1. White Sheer  Dip Hem Shirt: I need a sheer shirt I must be the only person on blogspot not to have one?!

2. Nude Dip Hem Blouse: Will have to see this in real life, looks a bit frumpy in the picture!

3. Diamanté Gem Earrings: Matching earrings to accompany the ring below.

4. Diamanté Gem Ring: Copy of Princess Diana's ring - now Kate Middleton's engagement ring.

5. Peter Pan Tunic Dress: I like the colour and it's cute :)

6. Scalloped Tie Front Vest: I tried the Topshop one of these on, and the quality was appalling! The shoulders were coming unstitched and they were wonky :\ I prefer the tie in the New Look ones anyway.

7. Punchout Lace Up Heel: Leaning more towards the purple as I have a pair of pink heels already, but to be honest I'll have any! The black and grey are gorgeous too!

Tagged

I got my first tag the other day...! And then another two come along! I'm a bit a bit unsure of how to approach three tags all in one go so I've decided to do the one that came first (they're all pretty much the same anyway!)

Thank you to Love bug goes clumsy, Turtles nap and Fashion around the clock all of which I think you should check out :)

Here are the rules:
1. Thank and link back to who gave you the award.

2. Share seven things about yourself.

3. Pass it along to seven blogs you've recently discovered and enjoy.

4. Leave your recipients a note, telling them about the award.

Seven things about myself:

1. I've been a vegetarian for over four years now, ever since I was little I've never liked meat and always used to leave it till last!

2. I'm so indecisive about things I annoy myself.

3. I hate throwing away my old toys and teddy bears because I hate to think of them lying in amongst all the rubbish somewhere all cold, sad and unloved ;( 

4. I'm left handed :) 

5. I love being in places where nobody has a clue who I am.

6. I've officially ran out of wardrobe space and have now started hanging clothes from my bed and invented a floordrobe!

7. I keep special clothes tags and pin them all up from my corkboard.

7 lovely blogs to follow:

1. Afternoon Tea

2. All The Toppings

3. Ellie Dot

4. London's Closet

5. Flaws and All...

6. Polka Dots & Patent Shoes

7. Pookie Loves

(I tried to pick some which a lot of you may not have seen before :))

And lastly, to make this post a little more substantial, I have a £10 Body Shop gift voucher which I don't know how to spend? I have way too much Body Butter so I don't need any more! I want to try the Hemp products ;) and these eye shadows look lovely.

Has anyone got any recommendations?

Tan Spot 50s Sundress

I've been dying to show you all this dress which I brought on Saturday, with Valentine's Day over and all the excessive lovey dovey posts gone the time has come! I first saw this dress on Lydia Lee's wish list last week, I liked it, but not enough to buy it. Then when I was in Topshop my mum pointed it out to me and I said "yeah I know it's nice isn't it" but I still didn't have a proper look at it. On my third encounter with the dress as I walked past I finally noticed the back detail and fell in love! There were only three left, luckily one in an 8!

I got it for £33 something (yay for student discount!) which I don't think is bad for a Topshop dress, I'll be able to wear this in the day and maybe the evening. It's also a classic item which probably won't go out of fashion :)

I was going to do look book with all the things I might wear with this dress, what colours would work well but I decided against it because otherwise when I next wear it you will have seen it before! I think a turquoise nail varnish would work really well. I think it also needs a belt? Waist belts never fit me so if anybody knows of any shops that make belts small let me know! If not I'm going to have a look in kids places :\

No face shots today because I woke up and have something going on with my eye! It's like half the size of the of other, lol.
