OOTN - Rebel Rebel

Good evening all! I have spent tonight in a lovely little local restaurant with a couple of my close friends and thought I'd just quickly show you what I wore. It's a fairly casual low-key eatery so I didn't go for anything too dressy or over the top but I couldn't resist throwing on this gorgeous little dress I got in the Urban Outfitters sale.

Dress - Urban Outfitters

Leather Jacket - Zara

Fur Stole - H&M

Studded Bag - Mango

'Upperhand' Boots - Office

Lipstick - Mac 'Rebel'

I love this dress so much! It was actually my friend who picked it out in Urban Outfitters and was like 'This is so you, it's like Taylor Swift going on a date with Harry Styles!' and frankly that sold it to me. It's a smock-style dress and I do feel ever so slightly like a pregnant lady in it but I'm down with that, it is super comfy and will take me right through to Summer.

The lipstick is another new addition, oops. I've loved wearing a dark berry lip shade all through winter but I really wanted something a little brighter but still with that vampy vibe so 'Rebel' seemed like the perfect option. It is a satin finish so not too matte but not too shiny and translates on the lips as a really vivid berry colour.

I hope you all have a lovely weekend, I'm working so won't be doing anything too exciting but I won the Christmas incentive at work so I have a £50 Topshop voucher waiting for me yay!

What's In My Bag?

I am SUCH a crazy stalker and love these posts, who doesn't like to know what rubbish people drag around with them on a daily basis?! I am a total hoarder and don't even throw away sweet wrappers so when I show you the photo of 'What's in my bag' you can envision it littered with various different food related packagings if you like, I just thought I'd spare you the eye sore.

1. The purse I am currently using is this little studded number from Primark, it was only £4 and has a separate zip section for coins which is a must for me. As some of you may have seen if you follow me on Twitter, my purse got stolen a couple of weeks ago and I was devoed as it was the Chloe purse Andrew got me for my 22nd birthday earlier this year.

2. An umbrella is an obvious essential if you live in the UK, I've been thinking about buying a decent one for a while but never get round to it, this plain black one was from Poundland!

3. I always carry this little makeup bag I got free with a No7 purchase not that long ago for on the go touch ups. I carry my Mac Mineralize Skin Finish Natural in 'Medium', my Real Techniques Buffing Brush, a Mac Kohl Liner in 'Smoulder', a bronzer and whatever lipstick I'm wearing that day.

4. My keys. I always forget my keys; I left them at my mum's the other day and Andrew went out and locked me in the house, he wasn't impressed. On them I have a floral key ring that my mum got me from Cath Kidston last Christmas and a cute little willy I got in Spain last year. (Did I really just say 'cute little willy' on my blog?)

5. Chewing gum & Deoderant - So I don't stink obvs.

6. I always have my glasses in my bag but hardly ever wear them. I got them last year and decided to splash out on a more expensive pair as I thought I'd wear them all the time, turns out I don't oops. If you were wondering the model number is CH3213 and you can get them from www.eyewearbrands.com although I got mine directly from the opticians.

7. I tend to carry 2 phones, one for my bro's and one for my hoe's. Nah just joking, my IPhone broke but it can still connect to Wifi so I use it for WhatsAppin' and I use this amazing Nokia for texting/calling. Gutted it doesn't have Snake though.

8. My Kindle goes everywhere with me; I read it in bed, on the bus, on the toilet (No but really), in the canteen at work, EVERYWHERE. I've nearly finished my current book so let me know what I should read next, nothing too scary though or my imagination works overtime!

9. I always, always, always keep my work tag in my bag. The second my shift is over it goes straight in there or I know I'll forget it. As you've probably all worked out from my OOTD posts, I work at Office!

10. Lipbalms. As you all know I have an obsession with lipsticks so I always have at least a couple of lip balms floating around in case I need a bit of extra moisture. Korres Lip Butters are my absolute fav, especially the Pomegranate one.

So that's what I carry round with me on a daily basis, minus all the rubbish. I'm not a big bag person so I tend to use a bag until it falls apart, and then I'll finally buy a new one; Hense why this Zara bag has appeared in pretty much every blog post I've ever written.

What's in YOUR bag?

Long time no see (again) my blogging friends. We have no TV or internet at the new house so me and Andrew have been stuck watching back to back 'Jamie's 30 Minute Meals' for the past week and if I have to hear him tell me to stick the garlic in the garlic crusher without pealing it one more time I'm probably going to lose the plot.(I didn't mean that Jamie, I love you.)

I'm staying at my mum's tonight so I thought I would take advantage of the internet and get a blog post up, I've been getting withdrawal symptoms. This is what I wore to work today, sorry It's not very exciting, I'm not even wearing shoes, I just really wanted to get a post up this evening!

I hope you've all had a lovely week, what have you been up to?

OOTD - Run, Run, Rabbit Run...

Long time no see girlfriiiends! To give you  the quick D-L on my life, me and Andrew should be moving into the house exactly one week today (woo) but there is still SO much to do (waa). I am juggling my time between decorating and working with not a lot else in between but hopefully this time next week I'll be all settled and normal life will resume.

As you can probably tell, my mum took these photos as they are TERRIBLE, but I really wanted to get a post up showing you my latest wardrobe additions; a checked flannel shirt and an utterly 'Zara' Primark jacket.

Jacket - Primark

Shirt - Topshop 

Skirt - H&M

Boots - Office 

Me and Andrew are doing a carboot on sunday to try and raise money to get the last of our house bits, there's so much we still need and the funds are totally drained so I'm hoping the weather stays nice! Any tips for making the best of your carboot sale?
