  • on the move
  • rock
  • smile
  • spring
  • sticky
  • tangle



Can't live without!


Indulgence!


Multi Coloured!


On the Move!


Rock!


Spring!

Those were all I managed to get this month - and I started so well at the start .. and then kind of petered off! I'll try again now were in May ;D


 Now moving onto an outfit - I wore this to go out shopping last Sunday!
 I didn't like it so much when on as when I had planned it - mainly because of the v neck top underneath the dress, it didn't really go with the dress's v neck! 
I tried the outfit again a couple of days later with a high necked black top and it was MUCH better - however I forgot to get a pic to show you!!! 

l

I do however like the colours!



What I Wore:
Dress: Evie @ Peacocks.
Top: New Look.
Belt: Primark.
Leggings: Florence and Fred @ Tesco.
Shoes: Fiore @ Matalan. 

 This is how I have done my nails this week:


 And here is a sneaky peek of a couple of items I picked up over the weekend!
