05.03 new things

Happy Friday! We’ve made it through to another weekend! Who has exciting plans? I’m off work tomorrow so will be indulging in a little retail therapy with my Mum; fingers crossed the sunshiney but cold weather will hold. I so cannot wait for the temperature to start rising.

This will be one of my last non outfit posts, though I’ll probably try and do more of this type of thing rather than keep posting photos of myself.
I thought I’d show you some recent buys and favourite things.

Dresses! As you can see, I’m still loving florals. Both floral dresses are from New Look and both cost ยฃ12. The grey based one is my purchase I mentioned the other day. I can’t wait to wear them.
The cream dress in the middle is vintage and absoultley gorgeous, it is also really versatile as it can be worn in many ways. This came from a giveaway hosted by the wonderful platform princess who is a real sweetheart, so do go and check out her blog.

I’m really starting to get more in to accessories lately. I’m a bit hopeless at remembering to put jewellery and such on when I get ready but I am making a concious effort to change that. Most of these treasures came via a group of lovely ladies, who should know who they are ๐Ÿ˜‰

And these are my current favourite nail polishes. Buying them has become a bit of an addiction of mine, although I am trying to be good and not spend any more on them for a while.

Have a fabulous last day of the week

  25. What GORGEOUS dresses, I’m headed out to find some good ones probably next weekend ๐Ÿ™‚

  26. I’m trying to find floral dresses for spring, but it seems as if all of them are too short(since I’m too tall..lol).
    I like the length of the ones you got, and they are beautiful!

  27. I know we discovered we had that grey floral dress in common, but did you know I also have the other floral dress?! It’s in one of my first posts I think – I absolutely love it, although have just realised that I’ve not worn it yet – so thanks for reminding me!

    Loving the pretty bits & pieces – I’m big into accessories ๐Ÿ™‚

    Also rather obsessed with nail varnish – seems we have quite a bit in common!

    Hope you have a great weekend ๐Ÿ™‚

  35. oo i love your new jewelry!! I can’t believe you guys don’t have a f21! I’d die. haha.

  36. i can’t wait to go home next week and shop with my mom and sisters! i’m thinking your ivory dress will be my fave of the three : ) jewelry is the perfect addiction and i’ve been very into nails lately, too. ive started learning how to do my own acrylics and nail art…i used to be obsessed! and now i’m getting back into it.

  37. The dresses you bought are really lovely!

    xx

  38. I am so with you on nail polish. I love buying new colors. : )

  39. great finds! love the floral dresses!
    oh i’m a nail polishes fan too <3

  40. Love all the dresses! I’ve been dreaming (literally) of wearing dresses like that. And I don’t want to spend a lot of money, either. I’m going to check out New Look next time I’m on Oxford Street. They’re a great cheap brand.

    It’s funny I’m into accessories, too, lately, and nail polish. I think it’s cause spring is in the air. My favourites are the turquoise & the hot pink (I’ve got both colours). I also bought a very pale opaque pink and pale peachy/tan from American Apparel in South Beach, Miami, but I don’t see it online any more. Maybe they stopped.

    My favourite accessory lately – the only necklace I wear apart from my pearls – is your necklace!

    Have a lovely weekend. I have no plans at all while my husband fishes with his mates tomorrow: so looking forward to doing absolutely nothing, maybe seeing a film! x

  41. I totally understand the nail polish buying frenzy โ™ฅ

  42. p.s. I see that Kel called that colour ‘China glaze mint’ – there is a wonderful book on colour called simply ‘Colour’ by VICTORIA FINLAY which I recommend everyone read – she writes beautifully – and she’s got a whole chapter about that colour, and china porcelain glaze. It’s actually slightly greener – pale – and the colour is called celadon. She starts off the chapter by saying ‘There was once in China a secret colour…’

    I posted about a pair of shoes in exactly that shade btw:

  67. wow, that cream dress just looks smashing, I can’t hardly wait to see how you wear it. I love how nail polish works but am a complete spaz at applying it. For all of my painterly skills I can’t ever apply nail polish cleanly…

    ps. thanks for your last comment about my art, it meant alot to me. Even if you don’t “know” much about art, its okay, art should connect with you at an emotional level.

    Hi hun, hope you are well.

    Nice dresses, really like the first one to the left, I am also so into nail varnishes again and I am blaming Chanel for it… I haven’t got the particuliere yet so I was in search of something similar and ended up finding some cool colours!
    I have to take it slowly too, it can be very addictive indeed!
