DUNGAREES vs DRIZZLY DAYS

*post and pictures edited on the 26th August*

Last week, I, along with many other A level students sat anxiously awaiting my fate in the form of 3 tiny black inky letters. Results day, or as my phone count down fondly referred to it, ‘the day that dreams die,’ crept up like a thief in the night and before I knew it I was logging onto my laptop at 7.42am and praying for a miracle. Thankfully when UCAS track finally updated I was greeted by the best news ever as I discovered I’d been accepted into my first choice university. I then excitedly flung open my bedroom door and basically screamed in my dad’s face.  Classy. I’m so happy to say that in little under a month I’ll be heading off to Newcastle and I cannot wait! 

Results day was followed by a very busy week of celebrating and finally sleeping, hence my lack of blogging. Today I finally got round to taking some outfit photo and managed to snap only a few shots before the heavens opened. It started as drizzle and ended with my house washing away. Joking obviously, but you get the point.

I thought I’d upload the pictures anyway as you hopefully still get a good idea of how amazing these floral dungarees are. They were a little steep at £45, but as soon as I saw the beauties I knew they were coming home with me. I kept the rest of the outfit simple and I actually wore it to a family barbeque last week (If you want to see how I looked on the day feel free to have a peek at my instagram!

I really need to catch up on some blog reading so feel free to pop your links below, and I hope you’re all well!

Until next time,

WHITE NAILS, RINGS AND THINGS

 white polish – shellac gel manicure | rings - topshop sale

Guess who’s back, back again…is probably the most overdone way to say hello when you’ve carelessly abandoned your blog for quite some time but here I am using the clichéd phrase nonetheless. 

I recently went on holiday to Bulgaria with 4 of my best friends and had quite possibly the best week of my life. We sunbathed, we gossiped, we ate, we drank (too much) and then we cried (when we had to leave.)  It was a crazy, amazing sort of week, but it meant that I had to take a bit of a break from stalking all your blogs and blogging myself. Thankfully I’m now back and have decided to get back into the swing of things with a short post about a current obsession of mine – white nails. Just before I left for Bulgaria I decided to treat myself to a gel manicure and picked the colour white on a whim, but ohhh my goodness am I in love. In my opinion white nails instantly update your look and give it somewhat of an edge, and most of the time on holiday I wore these simple metal rings which completely freshened up my outfits and added an effortless touch of cool.

They gave up a good fight, but after a week and a half of jumping into pools, dancing on bars and generally being abused, my beautiful nails have chipped and grown out. I’m already planning to ring the salon to get these beauts re-done, and I can’t see my obsession with white slowing down anytime soon.

Hope you’re all well and i'll be back to regular blogging soon,
