Pictures From The Last Few Days

Pictures From The Last Few Days

So if you read my blog you will know that a few days ago I moved to Manchester University, which should explain why I haven't been very active over the past few days! I was super nervous but so far I have met so many lovely people and I'm just having the best time. I can't believe how friendly everyone is! A bit of a lazy post today but I promise I am getting into more of a routine and post should become more regular again. But for now I just thought I would share with you a few pictures from the last few days. 


My welcome week wristband that is getting me into all of the events this week!


So this how much stuff that I bought to uni with me...


Starting to decorate my pin board in my dorm room


Loving my new stationery from Sainsburys


These are the cushion covers that I made for my room. Love how pretty they look together.

Outfit For An Evening Out

Outfit For An Evening Out 


Can't stop wearing my new black clutch from Accessorize


My statement winter earrings from Accessorize. 


Love the combination of these three with the little hints of gold.


A really simple outfit dressed up with accessories.


I also kept my makeup really simple and focused on long fluttery lashes. 

The other night I went over to a friends house with a group of friends for drinks, pizza and a catch up before we all go off to university. I just wanted to share with you the outfit and makeup that I wore that evening. I also wanted to apologise for the quality of some of the photos! I was running a bit late so I didn't have long and as you can probably tell I was struggling with the sunlight! Anyway, hope you like this :) xx

Also I just wanted to add that I am going up to university in Manchester tomorrow so while I unpack and settle down it may be a few days before I post again. Hope you all understand. And I am really looking forward to decorating my dorm room and showing you guys!

A Little Accessorize Trip

A Little Accessorize Trip 



Yesterday I had to go into town quickly to pick up a few bits and pieces. While I was waiting for my mum I went into Accessorize one of my all time favourite shops and found two things that I have been looking for for ages. 

The first thing was these hair bows. I've seen quite a few of these around again and I wasn't too sure at first. They remind of when I was about 11 and I had satin pink ones from New Look that I used to clip back a random bit of my hair from the front! Does anyone else remember that?! But recently I've been seeing them in more sophisticated colours and fabrics and I really like them. I'm not really a fan of the ones bigger than this but I think these would be perfect for adding something extra to a simple ponytail (which are all over the catwalks this season) or a half up half down hairstyle. 

The second thing was this black clutch with gold studded flowers on the front. During summer they did this same bag in a few pastel colours and I really loved the white one but I didn't no when I was going to use it so I left it. I off to university in a few days now and I have been looking for a little black clutch that I can take with me on nights out. This bag is absolutely perfect and when I saw it I feel like it was love at first sight! Firstly I love that this is not a structured clutch as I thing I will be able to fit a lot of stuff in here. And I like that this has two separate compartments. Secondly this has a popper and zips which should mean that my stuff stays safer in the evening. One of the most important things for me when looking for a black clutch bag was that it had a long strap, which so many didn't. This one is just perfect as I can detach the strap when I don't want it and just use it as a clutch. And if I am going out and dancing I can wear my bag across my body and still have both hands free, plus it is less likely to be stolen that way. The strap folds up pretty small so I could keep it in the front pocket and just attach it during the night. And finally I think that the studded flowers on the front are so pretty and just a little bit different. And the bag goes really well with my new watch!
