Bargain hunter

Good morning everyone!

I am very confused today and keep thinking it's Thursday.. Which is of course quite annoying as it means that it's not Friday tomorrow...

Oh well, I guess I'll just have to cheer myself up by thinking of the absolute bargain I found last night. I went into town to look for shoes for a wedding I'm going to next week.. I already have the dress and the bag, so thought it should be fairly easy to find some shoes.. Ok, so I didn't find any for that particular occasion, but I did find some black studded court shoes at Primark..

Oh yeah, and they cost me £6!!!

I am getting quite good at this bargain hunting thing..

DIY Statement Necklace

Ok, I admit it - I am absolutely addicted to Pinterest. People are just so darn clever and I keep thinking to myself - I have a masters degree, why didn't I think of that?!

There are so many things on my DIY to-do-list, but this necklace is definitely high ranking! Great gift idea too.. I desperately need to find some local craft stores!

Check it out on Pinterest here.

I've gathered lots of clever ideas on my DIY board, so head on over if you're into that kind of thing :)

Wanted!

Is it just me, or has Primark been stepping it up lately?

Give me sun, this outfit and a cocktail  or two and I'll be a very happy bunny...

Can you believe that this outfit comes in at just £20 combined!!! Love the lace/silk combo..

GOD I need a holiday...

Rihanna for River Island

Beautiful girl = beautiful fashion range?



Not so much in my opinion! Why anyone would revive the horrible grunge look from the 90's is beyond me... But hey, each to their own... I'm sure it'll be a sell-out..

DIY Sandals

Oh, do I have a treat for you!

Yesterday I came across this ridiculously easy, yet utterly fabulous idea on how to revamp those boring, old flipflops.. Gotta love an idea where you can basically create your own shoes with zero effort AND using things you already have lying around the house!

All you need is a pair of flip flops and some fabric, and bish, bash, bosh - you've got yourself a pair of these...

Pinterest is da bomb!

LOVE them, and will most definitely be trying this as soon as the weather permits open shoes!

Rewind

So last week I went to London with the bf, and I've finally had a chance to look through the pictures.. Unfortunately, I didn't take a lot, so there's not much to share.. For once, we were blessed with lovely weather - perfect for sightseeing!

Amongst others, we saw the changing of the guards by Buckingham Palace, Palace of Westminster, Trafalgar Square and London Eye.. We also went for a stroll on the South Bank to check out the street performers.. Oh and we managed to find Scandi kitchen so I could get myself some Scandinavian treats! Nomnom...  All in all, a really good weekend - and this time I got to see some touristy things which I've missed previously..

Hope you're having a good week so far :)

Monochrome beauty

Hiya,

How are we all doing this Tuesday afternoon? As I've been quite absent lately, I figured it was about time to drop by.. I've been planning on showing you some pictures from London, but as I haven't even uploaded them to my computer yet, I guess we'll have to improvise :)

So I thought we could check out some monochrome little treats.. What could be easier - or more stylish to wear than black and white?! It's such a classic combination, and a huge hit this season. The best thing - it suits all ages and can easily be adpated to suit any size or shape.. Brilliant!

Here are some of my Highstreet favourites at the moment:

We like, right?!

Genius DIY clothing rack

Earlier today I came across this awesome DIY and I really wish I had space to do it myself!!

Check out Love Aesthetics for the original post on how to make this clothing rack by using nothing but plumbing tubes and a few 3 way joints - gravity will do the rest.. So, so clever!! And very minimalistic - meaning that your clothes will really stand out..

So what do you think? It's good, isn't it?!

London-Bound

That's right, this Friday I am heading off to London with the bf for a weekend of bliss.. I absolutely adore London, and cannot wait!

As usual, we have a very busy schedule - so much to see, so much to do :) Amongst others, we are going to Houses of Parliament, London Eye and doing a river boat cruise. I am also looking forward to stopping by Scandi Kitchen for some Norwegian treats!

But before then, there's both a birthday and Valentine's day to look forward to..

Happy days :)
