Yum!

It's a baking style post. A giant 'Millies Cookie' inspired cookie I made for one of my closest friends on his birthday. A sweet variation from the usual birthday cake.

I have so much love for this girl. My absolute girl crush and a personal style icon.

Menorca

Beautiful holiday with my handsome man.

PARKLIFE

What a great weekend parklife was! And even though it was raining and we all had mud up to our knees we still got in the festival spirit with shorts and flowers in our hair! A great way to finish my three years in Manchester.
So wrong they are right?!?

Packing

Off on another summer holiday, with two of my best friends from home. We are venturing out of our comfort zone to Marrakesh in Morocco for 6 days and looking forward to the sun after an emotional goodbye from uni, goodbye to Manchester and my boyfriend making a huge move to Ireland.

Packing became a huge issue between the three of us who are used to packing everything and the kitchen sink! ONE case between the three of us and a small hand luggage has proved seriously tough when deciding what to take. We have all had to put 'travelling light' into ACTION in a serious way.

Therefore I have taken items that (fingers crossed) I can use it lots to mix n match and make plenty different outfits!
I will posting the holiday pics next weekend in between unpacking and replacing to jet off to see my nearest and dearest.

I just wanted to express how much I love what Zara has to offer right now. Here are a couple of items I adore.

The coated black pants I just couldn't resist, and brought then and there.

Nails

I picked these nail foils up for just One pound from Primark! I think they look pretty good for that price, (excuse the short boy nails).

Belated birthday

A late post from my birthday.

I had two separate celebrations and two ends of the country, Manchester and Brighton. However, with a short time between them and even shorter funds I wore the same new dress to both occasions.
I picked a black maxi dress from Miss Selfridge that made it easy to accessorise differently to change the overall outfit as best I could. It was one of the first dresses I tried on and after 2 hours of shopping ended up going back to it!

Jubilicious!

I love the Royals and am enjoying all the Jubilee celebrations as I type! What a great time to be British! 🇬🇧
After a relaxing getaway, I spent the last week interning at Ted Baker's head office in Camden, working in the PR department. It was great putting everything my degree had taught me into action and discovering some 'behind the scenes' work that goes into the work of the brand. And, what a beautiful office with beautiful (and gorgeously dressed) people.
Much to my surprise, when I left the office on Friday, the lovely girls there treated me to a bag of goodies! So kind!
I am now much looking forward to a few items I plan on purchasing next season!

one down, two to go

so as it comes to the end of the term of my last year of uni I have been unexpectedly calm about assignments, dissertations and worst of all presentations! I think the realisation that it will all be over so quickly is sinking in and enjoying the uni life has become (along with work of course) a top priority!
How strolling along to the pub at 4 o'clock with four friends today, on a TUESDAY, is something i don't expect to be freely doing a year from now!
with 5 days left of structured lectures I am going to make sure I enjoy it as much as possible before the revision period begins!

procrastinating

With all this final year work hanging over my head, I find it surprisingly easy to find something more interesting and utterly less important to be doing. Be it magazines, shopping online (with no money) or applying make up just for the sake of it.
So right now I will be posting some of my favourite home making inspiration.















I also love this cute attic bedroom!
