Death by diamonds and pearls

I've had a great day scanning the shops and trying on things I couldn't possibly afford. Not only that, but I also discovered a 'Happy Egg' restaurant! You know the happy eggs you can buy? Well they made a restaurant which sells omelettes, pancakes etc and it is IMMENSE. I had a chorizo and mozzarella omelette with salad but was so tempted to have waffles with ice cream on afterwards. I managed to restrain myself somehow. I was also restrained with the shopping (partly being sensible but mainly because I can't afford to spend tons) and I only bought two cheap pairs of shoes from Primark.

We spent plenty of time in House of Fraser covering ourselves in perfumes and swooning over the Nails Inc manicure bar. I could spend hours in that shop. I also got plenty of satisfaction from walking around the expensive bags and knowing that my lovely little Mulberry (which I won) was more expensive than all of them. 

After dragging ourselves back from town, we equipped ourselves with pizza and ice cream (strawberry cheesecake of course) and scoffed our way through a film and The Voice. I don't even really enjoy The Voice anymore but I think I watch it so that I know what people are talking about. Does anyone else do that? Weird. Anyway, here are a few ASOS loves...

I really want some new jewellery and bits and pieces for summer. I'm being drawn to all things gold, aztec style and studs or spikes. Nearly every piece of clothing I picked up today had studs on it! I'm worried that I'm going to end up dressing like Rihanna at this rate! Zara has some gorgeous yet subtle stud work on their tops at the moment if you fancy trying the stud trend but not going all out.

Oh and one little apology too. I've been a lazy blogger recently and have only just started regular posts again. I'll try and keep it up as much as possible because I know that some people do like to read my humble little blog. I really appreciate that! Thank youuuu :)

Are there any posts you would like me to do more of/less of? Any new things I should talk about?

Too close

Two posts in one day. Can you tell I should be doing something much more boring? It's my birthday in two months so I'm thinking of saving up and treating myself to one of the beautiful Zara items below. The main problem is that I can't choose which one I should buy! If I was being sensible then I'd go for the big brown bag or the dark coloured sandals but the bright, sparkly person inside me wants the red shoes or the lemon bag. The rest of my life is painfully simple at the moment so I'm pretty glad that my hardest decision is a fashion based one!

Which one would you go for?

Take a walk

I've managed to survive the week... just. After three days of feeling like death I have come out of the other side just in time for the weekend! Plenty of cleaning and marking awaits but I'm going to mix it with a fair amount of window shopping, film watching and spending time with the lovely Tait. By window shopping, I mean trying on all of the most expensive dresses and pretending that I will one day by able to buy one! It can't hurt can it?

Thought I'd share some recent bits and pieces that I've been after. I think the pastel sandals will HAVE to form part of my summer wardrobe. They look almost identical to pair on ASOS. You will find me rummaging in the local Primark soon. True story.

Style Crush #15: Rosie Huntington Whiteley

Haven't written a style crush post in a while so thought I'd get my act together and sort one out! I also need some superficial escapism and so that's where this blog comes in handy. Style crush this time is Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. I think it may be a case of me actually wanting to be her rather than just wanting her style this time... can you blame me?

Bouncy hair, big brows, dark lipstick and tattoo. Perfection!

Love the colour of this dress. Not so sure on the swishy bottom half - I would fall over!

I need to own this leopard print clutch.

Sparkles

I like how this outfit is different from the typical model type attire. Those shoes are beautiful.

That's all I can face writing/uploading tonight. So tired!
