As we do every year my parents and I jumped into the car and drove to Blakeney, Norfolk for a week of bracing walks, scrummy food and cosy nights in. I’ve done two other posts about my time in Blakeney which you can read here and here.

We were staying in a cute little cottage called Grey Seals with the hopes that my sister and her husband would join us later on in the week.

Seeing as we hadn’t arrived till the late afternoon we didn’t get to have a walk till the sun had gone down but armed with a torch we set off to the sea front.

Yes those are my Miffy Pj’s, the perfect midnight walk outfit.

After a lovely little wander round the fairground it was back to the warmth of the cottage for a movie and some popcorn.

Make sure you check back tomorrow for the day 2!

Dress – H&M|Hat – New Look|Shoes – Kurt Geiger.

If you haven’t already seen this outfit over on my My Vegas Style post then click here; but I loved the outfit and the photos that I took that I wanted to share them with you.

Little white dress is becoming as popular as a the little black dress and this lace number from H&M is just perfect. It’s pretty short but with a pair of sky scraper heels your legs look amazing! Despite it’s shortness the high neck makes this dress still look quite demure and lady like. The hat is super old but it gives a touch of old Hollywood glamour and as for my shoes I have had these babies for yonks but to be honest they are not the comfiest of shoes so don’t wear them that often but aren’t they beautiful!

Do you prefer LWD or LBD?

Lilac Dip Dye ?!

I wanted to dip dye my ends lavender – and before all you hair experts go ‘omgosh thats like the hardest thing to do why did you even try‘ I know it’s hard! I went with Fudge hair products, I purchased Whiter Shade of Pale which is a toner and also good for diluting other dyes and then I also got Blueberry Hill which is a deep purple.

First I toned my hair with the Fudge Whiter Shade of Pale which is fantastic and really helps get rid of the brassy tones especially for brunettes with bleach like me. I then waited a week – maybe this is where I went wrong, before attempting to dye my ends lilac. It was really easy to mix and apply; although I got a little carried away with the Blueberry Hill which is why it’s looking a little more of a purply pink. After washing the dye out it ended up looking like this.

As you can see the dye did not take to all my hair so there are still some blonde strands left but where it did take the colour is not as vibrant as I had hoped it would be. Sadly after these photos were taken I then did a deep condition on my hair and this stripped out all the pink dye out even though its supposed to stay for up to around 20 washes.

I’m not giving up on using the Fudge dye or my lilac dip dye so stay tuned for more attempts.

Any advice or good salons I could visit let me know in the comments!

Supercat Liner

Soap&Glory Supercat Liner – £6.00

I can’t quite believe that I haven’t blogged about this product before seeing as I use it nearly everyday.

I love a good cat flick and the Supercat Liner by Soap&Glory makes it easier than ever to do – even in a rush. It’s a felt tip liner with a thin point meaning that you can do either a super thin line or thicken it up for more drama. It’s highly pigmented to give you a clear black line across your lids and doesn’t transfer at all during the day. What I love about this product is that it’s so smooth to pop on, no dragging across the eyelids; it just glides on.

At only £6.00 I will always re-purchase.

Top –H&M|Jeans – New Look(similar)|Boots – New Look(similar)|Bag – Chloe.

The other day England had a little visit from Hurricane Bertha so I had to dig out some winter boots for a recent lunch date with A. I have recently discovered the peplum style – yes I know I am very late to the party and I just had to get a striped one. I am pretty sure there is some rule about blue and brown not be allowed together but I really like the navy and chestnut in this outfit. The boots are just bog standard heeled chelsea boots but these New Look ones are not the comfiest of pairs. The bag is my Chloe Paddington which I adore although I have to say I do take my padlock off the bag because it’s so heavy but it’s a great day bag. I love this outfit it mixes british and parisian fashion and is super comfy.

Rimmel Apocolips in Celestial

Rimmel Apocolips in Celestial – £6.49

I have been a fan of the Apocolips for ages but only had them in dramatic reds so wanted something a little bit more day to day. Celestial is a gorgeous pink with a slight purple tone to it – that sounds weird I know but it’s true. Celestial is the perfect for day time but would look lovely with a gloss over the top for a night out.

Apocolips are liquid lipsticks with an amazing staying power and great pigmentation, they are not completely matte but not shimmery either (sort of like a MAC Satin texture) If you need a day to day lipstick that will stay for ages then this is the one for you and under £7.00 whats stopping you really!

Dress – H&M(similar)|Boots – H&M (similar)|Jacket – Topshop(similar).

Just a super quick little outfit post today. These photos were taken just before I rushed out for a night on the town to celebrate a birthday so apologies that they are a little soft.

This little t-shirt dress from H&M is not only a complete bargain (under £10) but is the nicest thing to wear for a night out. The fabric is super soft and stretchy. It clings in all the right places and can be dressed up or down. These winter boots were not my first choice of shoe but due to some blisters from a previous night out these were the comfiest heels to whack on and I like them with the dress sort of gives it a grunge look. Incase I got cold I chose my Topshop sheepskin lined denim jacket which is perfect for just throwing on in the summer.

This was a nice casual night out hopping from bar to bar and this outfit is just perfect for that.

For some reason I cannot find the dress on H&M online however if you pop into a store and go to BASICS then it will be there!
