Double joy for it being the end of another working week for me. Four and a half hour shift this morning then I am officially on holiday for a week! I’ve decided against making plans, what I am really craving is some peace, quiet and relaxation. I have grand plans of experimenting with some baking, and playing with my new Slow Cooker (yeah, that’s how exciting my life is)…and of course, there will be the obligatory shopping trip in Bath to round off the week nicely.
As you can see, I still don’t have the hang of my camera settings, but this is what I wore for work yesterday. It was the most beautiful day so loose and cool was on the agenda. These trousers have become a staple of mine and the top is another of those hidden gems that I found lurking away.
Made the most of the weather by having a Birthday picnic tea in the park, as my Trudi turned 24. We’ve been on about a picnic for ages, so abandoned plans of cooking dinner together for lazing in the sunshine and setting the world to rights.
We could have done without the drama of a car being on fire at the top of my road as we made a move home…it was actually really scary. I am terrified of fire! Thankfully the passengers got out safely!
Just a couple of silly pictures to round off with. I am so in love with my vibrant hair colour at the moment; although my white pillow cases beg to differ! I hope the weather holds till later as I have plans with the gorgeous Becca. My two best friends in quick succession? I love life.
Happy Friday all

Cool and stylish outfit. Looks great!
The red of your hair is stunning too.

adore your hair !!!!
love the outfit!
And a tip to minimise colour fading and going on your pillowsheets is to put an OLD towel over them (I can’t stress that word, it’s essential that it’s old!! or just get a cheapie one from Primardi), that’s what my hairdresser tells me to do and it works a treat! 🙂

I love these trousers on you. I’m wanting a pair in a colour similar to this after realising how much I like my floral ones.

Haha, I love your hair too!! Apparently washing with cool water (brr) locks in the color more, keeps it from bleeding on pillows and such. take it from a fellow red head. .^.^.

Omg, I want a Slow Cooker! That is exciting. x
So adorable! My pillow cases aren’t too impressed either, i’m newly pink and so are they. x hivenn
Your outfit is pretty though you still look painfully thin to me. Love the hair and the blouse. I’m glad evryone got out okay in that car fire – that is scary. I just saw some photos of daisies in the field posted by Camilla F. – I think you’d like it. I hope your shopping in Bath goes well, that you have a great weekend and a fun time with Becca.
I love that vibrant red hair of yours even if the pillow cases don’t! x
Have a great holiday! I’m enjoying mine as we speak!
Happy weekend!
