Hello Everyone,
This is my first review type post which I'm really excited about.
A couple of weeks ago I came across this cute little blog and jewellery site... Temporary:Secretary. As soon as I stumbled across it I knew I had to buy something!!
So I browsed the store and came across so many things that I wanted to buy, I decided to just buy one thing, as I still had a while to go until payday! So I came across this cute little owl ring...
£4.20 in the sale. So I quickly ordered it. A couple of hours later I received a lovely email from Sarah apologising as they had sold out and offering me a different owl ring as an alternative and as a good will gesture I only paid £4.20.
So this is what I got...
I thought it was really great that the lovely Sarah looked at what I had wanted and recommended me an alternative. I love the ring she chose for me. I think I love this little guy as much if not more than the original ring!
I would 100% definitely recommend and use Temporary:Secretary again. I'd buy the whole shop if I could. So go go check the shop out.. its amazing :)

fishtail plait
I have recently learnt to fishtail plait, or 'Cheryl Cole Plait' as my boyfriends mum calls it. I honestly haven't been hiding one eye behind my fringe all day, but as I went to take these photos it started going all ready and itchy. Rubbish!
I popped into town on my lunch break today and almost bought THIS tshirt. My boyfriend loves birds so I thought he would find it pretty funny. I decided to wait until its in the sale. I'm not good at parting with big amounts of money, for me £20 is a lot to spend on one tshirt. So I'm hanging on!

Ta Very Moooch.
Hello!!
I'm afraid I have no pictures to post today. I'm living at the boyfs and haven't taken any photos yet! Just had a few things to say....
001. Thank you so much to everyone who reads and follows this blog! I know its probably a really cheesey thing to say but I really appreciate it, it's nice to know that people read and enjoy my ramblings :) so thanks.
002. Everyone should check out Temporary:Secretary theres some gorgeous jewellery. It's so so cute! I've just ordered a ring from their website. It was so hard to choose just one thing. I'm formulating a wish list in my head! Expect a full post soon...
003. I've got nothing else to do for the rest of the evening so I think I might play around with the blog layout... to stop me from online shopping!!
004. I had a good weekend. Went out on Saturday night, unfortunately the only outfit photo I have is a drunken myspace mirror photo with my friend in spoons which I'm not ready to share with the blogsphere yet! Also thought it would be a good idea to walk about a mile to Subway at about one in the morning... Thank god for flats!!
005. Its mine and Sams 11 month anniversary today... we celebrated by having tuna pasta bake for tea, going to tescos to buy apple juice and watching are now both sitting on our laptops.
Hopefully I'll have something more exciting later on this week :)

My Week in Shopping 001.
I've been shopping! I've picked up a few bits and bobs over the course of the week which I thought I would share on here.
My first buy this week was my fashion book and my art supplies.
(I wish this picture was the other way round but everytime I upload it it just rotates again!) anyway I got myself an A3 and A4 sketch book, some drawing pencils and 2 books, the first one arrived today. It cost me 77p off Amazon and is an ex library book so came complete with a funny plastic cover and library ticket inside! I very rarely buy new books, I always get used ones off Amazon and trapems charity shops.
I went shopping with mum today, she spent £90 on new plates and bowls and I spent £14 in good old Primark. I got some cute cream coloured pumps (£4), a 'petrol' coloured long see throughy vest (£8) and a black vest top - for under the shirt (£2). I'm meant to be going out tonight so I'm thinking team up the shirt with the vest top, my wet look leggings and some heels (with the new cream shoes in my bag because I'm rubbish at heels!) I'm looking forward to this evening, catching up with a few friends, its nice to not be the only girl tonight too!!
My final and favorite buy this week...
Now some people my think I am slightly sad but when I was younger I had a box set of Peter Rabbit books which were on my window sill. One day I got them down to read and they had gone all mouldy! So they were binned. I belong to a website called CheapCycle (amazing, search for your local CheapCycle and join, you get emailed with things people are selling and occasionaly there are some real gems!) and someone advertised these for £10!! I googled and these collectors editions are selling for like £40-50 so I thought what a bargain. I've always wanted them back because I want to share them with my children (when I have them!!). My favorite story is The Tale of Two Bad Mice. I used to love it when I was little. So thank you lady from CheapCycle you have made me very happy!
I should really go and start packing for my week at the boyfriends but I think I'll make a mood board instead.
