Keep your head up, keep your heart strong

Outfit:
Cream sleeveless sheer blouse: c/o New Look
Blue Aztec print trousers: Primark
Navy studded slippers: Primark
Beige trench coat: Topshop
Faux diamond statement necklace: Primark

Can I get a hell yeah for managing to bag these snazzy trousers for a mere £5? Gotta love Primark sales eh?! I do love getting myself a good bargain. I seem to have Primark tourettes and shout out 'BARGAIN £5!'. My boyfriend has informed me I resemble a 70s throwback but I love them - i've already worn them twice this week. I wore this to attend to the George at Asda event with Aisling and Lily yesterday. But there'll be a seperate post on that soon! The squinty eye look is not very attractive I know but the sun was everywhere in my garden!

The plan for today is to hit up the bootsale, visit my aunt as it's her birthday and pop down to Southend for the afternoon for some fish and chips by the seaside. It's the first Southend trip of the year - how exciting eh?! You always know summer is trying to rear its head when you take a trip to the seaside.

Are you making the most of the nice weather?

This week i'm loving - Seche Vite

I finally caved into blogger hype a few months ago and purchased Seche Viteon from Amazon. I don't know what I seem to do but i'm lucky is my nail polish remains chip free for more than a day. More often then not it chips within a few hours. I blame working on a competer all day for ruining it! At first I couldn't get on with it and didn't find it made much difference. But then Sarah suggested I use a thin coat rather than the thick one I plastered on. It worked a treat and now my polish lasts for around 3-4 days which is amazing! I find it works best on Barry M and OPI. No 7 still isn't really that good unfortuately.

Have you been converted to Seche Vite?

#AxCircus

This last image should be a warning to never leave your phone in the hands of fellow bloggers...

Last week I was very kindly invited to what seemed to be the blogger event of the year! My twitter feed was going crazy with excitement as it seemed all my favourite bloggers were attending. My idea of a perfect night out! It was in honour of the first ever AX Paris advert - it's pretty snazzy so make sure you keep your eye out for. Held in an amazing venue called Circus, we were treated to an impressive fire eater as pictured above, a man spinning around on a giant hula hoop - made me feel a bit sick! - and some arcobats. I think I might have watched open mouthed! As always it was so much fun to have a natter with all my favourite people whilst drinking cocktails and munching on the yummy canapes.

I didn't get to have a nosy at the clothes as much as I would have liked - I was too busy nattering to everyone in sight - but I did notice they had some cracking dresses! With such pretty colours, there are a few that are on my wishlist.

Thanks so much for Etail and Ax Paris for putting on such an amazing event - you really pulled this one out the bag!

I left my camera at home so these were taken on my iPhone hence the not so great quality. #bloggerfail. I'd lose my head if it wasn't screwed on!
