hello sailor...

Top: vintage | Skirt: New Look | Earrings: H&M
Whilst on holiday I had every intention of taking outfit posts before I went out in the evening, however a few too many cocktails and fateful karaoke bars put pay to that and I only have this one outfit! Saying that, this is one of my favourite outfits that I've worn both in the UK (when it's sunny!) and on holiday. I may not be the skinniest of people but I've really been getting into wearing crop tops with high waisted skirts, as I am here. The skirt is actually navy despite the picture and I got it in New Look last year; it's really versatile and I've worn it with so many different tops. The top I got from a blog sale probably about a year and a half ago but I've only started wearing it lately - I love it though! The earrings are probably the ones I wear most and I got them in New York about four years ago so this is a pretty old outfit I guess.


Here is a picture of my face that night, just to prove I do leave the house occasionally! I'm not 100% sure of what make up I'm wearing but I know it's Avon Calming Effects foundation, Benefit They're Real! mascara and I do believe there's some Benefit SunBeam there too!

oh heaven, i wait with good intentions...


So I returned from Portugal on Saturday but since then have been busy socialising (which means drinking too much Malibu!) and haven't had much time to blog! We've been going to Carvoeiro, in the Algarve since I was twelve but this year was definitely the best holiday yet. I've a few posts from things I wore/ did/ bought whilst I was away which I'll pop up in the coming week but for now I'll leave you with a little selection of my pictures...




How have you all been?

leaving on a jet plane...

Just a quick post to say au revoir for a while as I'm off to Portugal in the morning! I'm going for twelve days but I'll be sure to take lots of pictures and show you all my travels :)

Hope you all have a lovely couple of weeks!
