OOTD #5

Hey Guys!!

I'm sure you may have seen my post on Wednesday of when I went bowling, if not you can read it here. Well I thought I would share with you what I wore as I am trying to get a bit better at sharing outfits with you.

It actually didn't take me long to decide what to wear for once as it was a lovely day and I wanted to wear something cool. I went with a lovely, white, cotton dress that I had bought from Primark last year which is lovely and flowy (if that's a word) and has a brown, belt that goes round the middle. I then paired it with my trusty denim jacket which is also from Primark but I bought this a long time ago but you can get similar ones. 

For my feet I wore my tan, ankle boots which are from last year from Primark, I swear all my clothes aren't just from Primark. These are so comfy, and they make the noise on the floor you make when wearing heels.

I loved this outfit and I felt so cool in it especially as it was so hot here Tuesday and it was an easy outfit to bowl in!!

Bowling Shenanigans!!

Hey Guys!!

Yesterday was my sisters' 23rd Birthday and she decided that she wanted to go bowling and have some food with the family. In total there was 7 of us that went so we had a decent game of bowling.

The place we went bowling is called Superbowl UK and has only been open since March. It was nice and quiet when we went as all the children are back in school now and it was only us on a lane. It is very clean, and everything is easy to use when it comes to putting your names up on the screen and deciding on the bumpers being up or down for people. They also have a soft play area, Laser Tag, a bar and an arcade, I can do all of these things but the Laser Tag due to my asthma as they use smoke machines.

So we began bowling, I must say I am not the best at bowling but I enjoy it anyway as I used to love going to Megabowl when that was open. Everyone had so much fun and at one point we thought our Nan was going to go down the lane with the ball!! 

At the end of it then we had a look at the scores to see who won, Llewellyn won with 174 and I came last with 59! Lauren had a score of 116 but as there was so many of us I couldn't fit her score into the picture. 

We only had one game so when we finished we went over into the bar area and had some food. I went with a basket of chicken nuggets and chips which were really nice, I just wish I wasn't so sensitive to grease as I couldn't eat all the chicken nuggets as the grease was making me queasy.

Afterwards then we went back to Mums' house and sat out the back garden for a few hours as the weather was still gorgeous as it has been through the week.

Hope you enjoyed this post!!

How are you at bowling?

See You Soon!!

Hey Guys!!

I ended up having the week off both work and blogging last week. Blogging was more because I had no internet so couldn't write up any posts but it meant that I got quite a few things done through the week. We had a few days out, we have been making a few home improvements and planning out the next improvements. We are finally getting the house to how we'd like it even though we can't majorly decorate as we are private tenants.

Top L-R Spent the afternoon at Weston, Had a movie day, Had a nice little walk at Goytre Wharf

Boohoo Haul

Hey Guys!!

A couple of weeks back I thought I would treat myself to a new outfit for the Lukas Graham concert me and Chloe are going to in Birmingham. 

I wasn't to sure what to get to be honest as I want to dress casual and comfortable and what is more comfortable than a nice pair of jeans. I of course went to Boohoo to have a look at what they had available in their jeans section and found a lovely pair of blue, high rise jeans. I haven't wore them yet as the concert is tomorrow and will be doing an OOTD post for you and will let you know how comfortable they are in that post.

I then had a look at their tops as I thought a nice, cropped top would go lovely with this and would also be nice and cool during the concert. The material on this top is so thin it definitely will be nice and cool.

Of course then I looked at their jackets, I have been wanting a bomber jacket for ages but was trying to find the perfect one. I came across this one and added it straight to my basket. I love the colour of it and especially love the orange on the inside of it. It is quite thick so will be perfect for when summer is over, if we actually have a summer.

Hey Guys!!

To be honest this week has been nice and relaxed after a very busy one. I of course had work as well but it was still relaxed. Me and Llewellyn got some cleaning done in the house and watched a few films. The weather hasn't been great this week so haven't really done a lot from that. If you want to see these pictures or any other pictures between my posts you can follow me on Instagram.

Birthday Cupcakes

Hey Guys!!

As you can see from the above picture I turned into a bit of a baking machine last week, baking in total 48 cupcakes!! Yes, 48!! I made 12 of each different flavour which was Chocolate, Vanilla, Red Velvet and Carrot Cake. Luckily I had some helping hands from Llewellyn to get them all done.

First up I made the Chocolate and Vanilla cupcakes.

Vanilla Cupcakes

90ml Vegetable Oil (6 tbsp)

180ml Water

3 Medium Eggs

Chocolate Cupcakes

125ml Vegetable Oil (8 tbsp + 1 tsp)

230ml Water

3 Medium Eggs

Then I made the Red Velvet and Carrot cupcakes.

Red Velvet Cupcakes

200ml Water

3 Medium Eggs

Carrot Cupcakes

105ml Vegetable Oil (7 tbsp)

200ml Water

The oven was pre-heated to Gas Mark 4 and took 30-40 minutes to bake.

Once they had then all cooled down I iced them with Chocolate Icing and then Llewellyn put the buttons on.

These looked so good and everyone enjoyed them at Chloes' party. The kitchen while baking them smelt absolutely amazing!!

Hope you enjoyed this little baking post!!

See You Soon!!

OOTD #4 & MOTD #2

Hey Guys!!

On the weekend we celebrated Chloes' 19th Birthday with a family party which I must say was so much fun, especially as I got to see my best friend Eve as well. Of course this meant I had to find something to wear, whether that was something I already owned or bought something new. Can you guess what I did? Yeah, you guessed it, I bought something new.

I was actually quite proud of myself because I usually always go for something black, as you can tell from previous OOTD posts. This time though I went for a beautiful tan coloured playsuit from Charlotte Crosbys' range on In The Style, which you can see HERE. I did also buy some beautiful new shoes, that I am totally in love with and want to just preserve them so they last forever!! 

This playsuit was definitely worth the money, I did have to have it taken in a little bit on the sides as I didn't want to be flashing everyone all night, as that would have been embarrassing. It is faux suede and is thin enough that I wasn't to hot at all, was really nice and cool to wear. What was silly of me was that I forgot to take a picture of the back of it. The back is backless so I didn't wear a bra, but as it was a halter neck where I tied it into a bow it draped down nicely. I loved this playsuit so much and can not wait to wear it again.

Do you see what I mean by how beautiful these shoes are? Shoe wise I did want something different as I always wear the same black stiletto style shoes for every occasion. I had been looking for a pair of over knee boots orginally but because the weather has been so nice I thought my legs might get way to warm. Then I seen these on Boohoo and fell in love, you can take a look HERE. They are so comfy to wear and because of the cut outs I wasn't to warm at all. The feel of them is quite velvety and there is a zip on the back to do them up, so you're not fussing with laces especially after having a drink. 

My make up, I just went with a neutral look on my eyes using the Glitterball Palette from MUA and then used a L'oreal Paris lipstick in the shade 703 Oud Obsession which tied it all together. As you can also see I did curl my hair for the party, which I loved so much now that my hair is short.

Hope you enjoyed this post!!
