A snapshot #8

001: I finally spent all my birthday money in Oxford Street. I headed straight to Topshop as I usually can't afford to part with my pennies in there. I did want to stay away from Primark as I can afford that usually but couldn't resist buying one dress. It looks like a topshop copy. Wins!

002 - 003: I was very lucky to win a piece of Little Nells. Penny really does make some gorgeous pieces and this Hamsa necklace is no exception. Just look how beautifully it came packaged. Thank you so much :) I already have my eye on this to go with my new white dress in the above picture and this gorgeous cross.

004: It always makes my day when I recieve a postcard through the post from my oldest (nearly 20 years of friendship!!) and dearest friends. She's honestly a star! This time she was travelling around India if you could't tell from the postcard! I don't think there's many places left for her to visit!

005: I went to the local pub for dinner to discuss dates with friends for our summer holidays! Ahh exciting, just need to do some serious saving now! I much prefer having picky bits for dinner than a main meal, one of the reasons that I love Christmas. All those buffets nomnomnom! I admit I did have Lasagne after but i'm starting Weightwatchers next week so I am getting all my favourites in!

006: A little sneak peak of my birthday outfit. I went out for my birthday last night and as a result I am feeling a little sorry for myself! We ended up at Bloomsbury Bowling Lanes in Holborn, bit of a drama but i've got a special birthday post lined up. I had a good night, not quite sure i'd want to go there for birthdays as there's not enough dancing was involved for my liking. I'd go back again but just during the daytime. I'm recovering in my owl kigu and having a Harry Potter marathon with the boy. Bliss.
