Little Haul...

Heyy everyone..
Here we have a little haul from last week. Hope you enjoy :)



First of all is this gorgeous floaty dress from New Look. Its one shouldered and has this really pretty peacock feather pattern. I actually wore this last saturday for a night out to a comedy club and I loved it on. Shame I didnt get any pics for you but I was running late.. Doh!! Im sure I will wear it again tho. 



Next is this stunning cobalt blue dress. As soon as I saw it I fell in love. It really reminded me of the Herve Leger body con dresses and as Ill probably never be able to afford one of those ill stick with this. 
Some of you may remember from my earlier posts I was looking for a dress for my friends wedding in The Hilton. I think this is perfect. Its low on the front but goes to my knee so it keeps it nice and classy. Ill feel dressed up enough in the night and not too over the top in the day. 
Im thinking of teaming it with a pair of nude shoes. 
Both dresses came to around £50, such a bargain. 


Next up just a few bits from Superdrug.




Here we have Garnier Fructis Bamboo Flexihold hairspray, this cost £1.50, how amazing is that. Its a really good hairspray too, good hold and doesnt smell too bad (for hairspray) It was at the very bottom of the hairspray shelf, always look low for bargains. 
Also Maybelline Lasting Drama 24H Gel Eyeliner, and a Barry M Nail Paint.




The colour is Cyan Blue and I got it to go with my peacock dress but Ive wore it everyday since I got it on fingernails and toes. I just love it, so bright and attention seeking ;)


Ive been wanting this Gel Eyeliner for the longest time. Everyone raves over gel eyeliner So I bought the sleek one and hated it. This however is nothing like the sleek one. It goes on smooth and easy, you even get the little brush included. Think it cost around £8.00, and although im not sure it lasts 24 hours, I did wake up sunday morning with it still in place from my night out. I hardly ever take my make up off after a night out, very bad habit of mine (smack on wrist)


I got some news on the hair front, Ive decided to ombre my extensions and think im going to go to Boots today for the bleach... eeeeeeek!!!! Keep your fingers crossed for me. 


Thats all for now lovelies.

Ombre Hair - Sorry about jumping on the bandwagon!!!!

Heyy beautiful people..
Everyone who knows me knows how I am with my hair, I get bored really easy and im always thinking about what I can do next.
 Now as some of you will be aware I had bleached blonde hair for about 3 years, it massively took its toll on my hair, resulting in serious snapping and me having to get ALLOT of it cut off. 
To cut a long story short I home dyed it a natural black and im now on a regrowing mission.  
After reading all this you may be surprised im after a new look with my hair, but im following my same old pattern of getting bored. My new love is ombre hair, yes yes I know massive jumping on the bandwagon and im sorry for that but I really do love the look. 
I have 2 worries - I think most ombre hair looks best on long hair, mine is short, and also it involves using more bleach on my already damaged hair that is only just starting to feel better. Or maybe I could just bleach the ends of my extensions...
I dont know maybe im letting myself get way too excited when really I should just concentrate on getting my hair back to a good state. 
Would love to hear what you guys think, and here are some of my favorite ombre hair pictures to swoon at.





Soo there it is my new hair love in all its glory. Maybe ill be brave and take the plunge or maybe ill just dream haha.
Also Alexa Chung is the only short style I like, but I think you could put her in a paper bag and she would still look fab.

Tell me what you think, I need advice :) :)
