She Used To Be A Pearl...



Dress - Motel
Scarf - American Apparel
Jeans - New Look
Necklace - Galibardy

How nice are the clothes by Motel right now? Seriously love most of their stuff. I got this pearly dress from their last sale. It is so gorgeous and comfy too. Its a bit short to actually wear as a dress (and I'm only 5'4"!) so I rolled it up underneath and wore it as a top.

I also really love Galibardy jewellery. I bought this stag necklace a couple of months ago and I wear it all the time. I used to be known as the girl who always wore interesting necklaces but I've mainly been wearing my silver heart necklace for pretty much the last two years. My boyfriend got me it for our first Valentine's Day together and I've not really taken it off since! I miss wearing all my cool jewellery though so I'm gonna make more of an effort with it.

This is what I wore to make a horrible trip to the post office. I decided to sell my corset on ebay (whatever made me think that an expensive corset was a must-buy item, I'll never know...) and I managed to get 40 quid for it. Some man bought it and I got slightly freaked out that he might be a perv but wotevz, I'm getting money for it haha!

Ardell Lashes


I absolutely love Ardell lashes. I think they're relatively new to the UK market (I've only recently started seeing them in Boots) but they're a firm favourite across the pond. My go-to lashes are the 131s which normally set me back a fiver in Boots. However yesterday I went to TK Maxx and they had loads of them for only £2.99! I picked up some 131s and 101s (which look massive & amazing). I've seen them in 3 different branches of TK Maxx so it seems like they are widely available there.

I also noticed that Superdrug have a 3 for 2 offer on their Eylure lashes so if you're anything like me & can't live without your false lashes, get yourself to Superdrug and stock up!

What I Wore Today



Dress - American Apparel

I am a complete fiend for American Apparel. I got this dress a couple of years ago, I only wore it once and its been sitting in my wardrobe since then. I'm running out of wardrobe space so I'm trying to wear old things rather than constantly buy new stuff. Plus no more student loan, boo! As with all things from American Apparel it is so comfy and makes it look like you've made an effort even if you haven't. You can also see my accidental ombre hair clearly here. I cannot wait to get rid of it!

Today we had the in laws round and they took us to Ikea to get Chloe a high chair. I'm dead chuffed with it because its absolutely perfect and only cost £15. We also got hot dogs and ice cream at the end which is surely the best part of any trip to Ikea!


I also created a Mad Men version of myself. And you can too here. I've only watched the first series of Mad Men but I really like the show. Jon Hamm is gorgeous and I love his guest appearances in 30 Rock. Has everyone seen the live ep they just did? I definitely recommend you check it out if you haven't already!
