Quick OOTD and horsies!!

Hello bloggers!! Today I went for a 2 mile walk to the pub for a lovely pub lunch with mum and step dad, then walked back a mile and had to get a bus!! My shoes had rubbed big inch long fluid filled blisters on the outside sides of my feet D: Ouchiiie, even now they hurt to walk on! Flats for a bit I think! (though, I was wearing flats anyways, but no socks. Must wear socks!) I think I need plasters tomorrow :(
At least I got to see the horsies though!! (What I am, 12 xD)
Heres what I wore today (this is the only picture I took of myself today, I totally forget everything else!)
Cardy ~ Dorothy Perkins
Scarf ~ Peacocks
Dress ~ Peacocks
leggings ~ Peacocks
Shoes ~ M&S
My trusty flat M&S shoes hated me today, so sad :( I always rely on them and today they let me down!! Maybe cause the longest amount of walking I do in them is often shopping, not just walking 2 miles in one go :P
The pub we went too was The Red Lion in Horndean! Its a lovely pub, full of lovely food! I had:
2 chilli, 2 garlic and 2 cheese dough balls with guacamole and garlic butter for starters
breaded scampi with peas and chips (and more garlic butter) for mains
and I finished off with a small hot chocolate, mmmmmm

Not exactly diet food, but not too bad, don't you think? I ate all my peas ;)
The walk back wasn't too bad, but I was sad I didn't finish it due to my shoes :( I didn't mind it raining (I had an umbrolly) and it wasn't cold, just my darn feet!!
I did manage to see the horses I passed on the way to the pub though, on the way back!!


At first I was like, oh darn, they are so far away, I won't be able to pat them :(


But one of them came over, yay!! I shall call him Mister Snappy! He was very nice and sniffed me a lot and let me rub his face, but he didn't like being touched that much, he just wanted to sniff me!
He was lovely looking, and the other two followed him! I think Mister Snappy was just looking for food though!! When he realised I didn't have anything, he wandered off again!
The black and white one I shall call Bess and the brown one didn't come say hello, just kept eating! Bess was very lovely, she came right up, sniffed me and then let me rub her face and neck and stroke her nose!! She was a very pretty horsie!
She stood with me for quite a while, letting me talk to her and pet her!! I wanna go back and visit her!! But unfortunately, Mister Snappy didn't like the attention Bess was getting and bit her butt :( Thus why I call him Mister Snappy! I told him off, and he came over, so I gave him a soft tap on the nose for chasing Bess and snapping at her, then walked off. Poor Bess!

It was soon after the horses that my feet decided to fill with fluid and I had to get the bus :(
Once I got home I didn't do anything terribly interesting, tidied my room a bit, sorted out so internet stuff, wrote a couple of lists (I love list) and now I am finishing off my blogging for today, before I read some blogs and paint my nails!! Good night bloggers!!

Stay beautiful :D

Living on the Cheap: Deal With Spots!

Welcome to the second edition of Living on the Cheap! Lets get on schedule shall we!!

Todays edition is about spots. Spotty spot spot spots!! Everyone gets them! If you don't you are soooo lucky!! Get off my blog you non spotty person :P I am joking, I love you all!! But spots are so horrid, I get them usually around a certain time of the month (you know what I mean) where they break out around my chin!!  It annoys me they are in such a visible area!!
Urg, spots!
There are so many products on the market aimed at spots that scream YOU MUST BUY US OTHERWISE YOU WILL BE AN OILY SPOTTY MESS!! And they cost over a fiver!!
Well, the stuff I am going to show you is both things I advise you to buy (for less than a fiver) and also at home treatments for a quick zap!!

The products:
TEA TREE. I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH. TEA. TREE. If you are allergic/reactive to it, then I cannot help you as tea tree is my spot GOD. I will try and research non tea tree stuff next time though! I heard witch hazel can be similar!  But seriously, for those who haven't tried it, tea tree is god. I have this tea tree stick from Superdrugs:

I love this! I just unscrew it and pop it on the offending spot when I am out and about! Its only £2.99, which is pretty cheap for a spot treatment!!
Something else I recommend you keep in your bathroom cupboard is a good bottle of tea tree oil!!

A 10ml bottle shouldn't set you back more than £3 if you are in England, and hopefully you can find them cheaper in your country too!! These little bottles will last you a long time, as they usually come with a dropper type top, and you can put a couple of drops on a cotton bud, then dab it on the offending spot! I like to use this if I have a particularly pesky spot!

other things you can use; I have heard Witch Hazel is gentler but has the same effect, so look for products with that!! Remember, buy cheap, they work just as well as those £10 products!!

Home treaments:

Tooth paste is a scary unusual thing to kitty
Tooth paste. Surely you all have tooth paste in your house?! I hope you have...any-ways, moving on from my worries about your mouth hygiene, tooth paste is a god send if you have nothing like tea tree or need an over night emergency treatment! Just dab a bit onto the spot and perhaps cover with a tissue. Wait for it to dry before you go to bed, otherwise it might make a mess! In the morning, it should of dried up your spot, reduced redness and made it generally a bit less OMG!!

Perfume!! Another good (though can be harsh on some sensitive skins so be careful!) drier outer of spots that you have in your house!! This one is more like a quick time treatment, where you spritz a bit on a cotton bud, dab and go. You smell nice and your perfume is working on that spot!!


Please be careful when trying new things! I have sensitive to normal skin, and these things react okay with me, but everyone is different!! Try a little bit on a non icky bit of skin on your face first (I suggest jawline) to make sure you don't react!!

Other things I recommend: Tea tree toner is brilliant for morning and night routine, and mudd/clay face masks! The mask I love best is 99p and I squeeze it in a pot, which lasts me longer if I just used it straight from the packet!!

Stay beautiful!!

HELLO and Thank you! Plus OOTD!

I would like to start of by saying a whacking great big HELLO AND THANK YOU to my new followers <333 I hope I am not too boring for you and you enjoy my bloggy!!

Today, I had to go to North London for a family get together, as it was my Step-Grandfathers 80th birthday!! I don't mind going there as much as I used too (maybe I am growing up LE GASP), it probably helped I was in good spirits today!! I met a lovely old lady I hadn't seen before, called Moira, whose parents were Irish but she was born in Yorkshire! I love talking to elderly people, I find their stories fascinating (I am weird like that) because you are learning about a different era! I wish I was born in the 50s sometimes :( THE CLOTHES!!
Anyways, I always try and look nice when I go up there, so I put on one of my favourite longer dresses:


I love this dress, I got it in a sale at Peacocks!! Not too sure where the jacket is from (for one who goes shopping a lot of the stuff I wear can be a few seasons old!) and the shoes are from Dorothy Perkins! My favourite shoes to wear at the moment as they are SO COMFY and high, perfect for a little short person like me! (5 Foot 3 inches, I am a tall short person)


I just adore how pretty that necklace my mum picked out is, might become my fast favourite for a while!! I could stare at it all night, even the photo! But I won't, I have a blog to write!! I decided to match the earrings and the bracelet to the pearl like beads round the necklace, I think it matches pretty well!!
You can see the colour of this coat better in this picture! I love it so much, its just the right length for me and its soooo pretty and fitted in the right places!! I adore it!! Pink is definately invading my wardrobe at the moment! Remember my pink Winter Yumi coat?! Now I have a S/S one to match! (kinda, the Yumi one is even more girly and pink, but twice the price ;) )

The journey from Hampshire to North London is a long one and we are often bound to run into traffic:
Le traffic
Twas around Hindhead, stupid Hindhead, be less trafficy already!!
You can tell I was bored (and very hungry) as I took this photo of a lovely sign I was staring at for ages
I couldn't read my book as my migraine that nearly killed me on Friday is still lurking vaguely in the form of pressure on my brain, so it hurt to read :( Sad times

The most interesting thing on the journey back was seeing a magpie attacking a buzzard, maybe trying to get its food? That magpie was either mightily brave or mightily stupid!! Shame I couldn't get a picture :(

Anyways, thats it for tonight folks, enjoy your bank holiday (if you are in England) or enjoy your Monday (if thats even possible)

Stay beautiful!

I'm Back! Plus OOTD and Saturday Haul

Hello again my lovelies!! I hope you have all been well, I am officially back, with my laptop in sort of running condition (well, I can get on the internet, thats what counts!)
Since I have been gone, I have decided what my aim in life is, and that is, become a Beautician! I hopefully can get on a course at college for Beauty Therapy Sciences, level 3. I would love to be a Beautician so I hope I can get on the course!!
I had my last lesson of college yesterday (which I will blog about tomorrow) and my exams are all in June, so I will just be revising for the next couple of weeks!

Today, I wore scruffy kinda outfit, since I have to dress up tomorrow (and normally I dress scruffy on Sundays) and went out shopping with my mum!









The jewellery is made by my friend and they are my stories characters! Though one of them came off today, so I will have to find a new ring to attach him with!!
Me and my mum went shopping to Commercial Road, which is one of the main shopping districts of Portsmouth. We were only down there for an hour, but we managed a bit of shopping in that (despite the bloody queues in Primark!)
I saw this lovely coat in Primark and my mum liked it so much too, that she bought it for me!! I love my mum!
You can't seee it very well in this photo, but it is a lovely dusty pink colour, with dark browny red details! I love it, it is my new S/S coat!!
I had recieved a Boots Gift Card the day before, and I was raring to spend it!! I always have had my eye on Soap and Glory stuff, so I had to buy some thing from there! The Gift Card was £15 and my mum made up the difference. Heres what I got:
Soap and Glory Scent-sationalism, The Righteous Butter, Heel Genius and two of the Barry M Cracked Nail Polishes in Black and Pink. In the Scent-sationalism gift box I got a Girligo, Mist You Madly and a Glam-A-Lot, all of which I cannot wait to try out!! I have tried The Righteous Butter already and it smells gooorgeous!! I have also tried the Heel Genius already, just gonna let that sink in over night and see how my feet are in the morning!!
I can't wait to try out my Cracked nail polishes!! Its the first time buying them (I am so behind hahaha!) so I will try and do something creative (maybe)
After Commercial Road, my mum decided to go to Whiteley Village for more shopping (after all, we only spent an hour in Com Road!) She was very tempted by some earrings but is going to think on it! I however, was lucky once again to have a fabulous mum, whom bought me these things from Pilot!
I love this top, it looks sooooo nice, and the necklace is so pretty too!! My mum just picked it up and said "Will this look nice with things you have?" Of course I said yes! I am wearing it tomorrow, so I will take close ups then!!

After that we came home (not before a yummy Mature Cheddar Cheese Pannini in Boswells, washed down with a Drench!) and since then I have been poking the internet, talking to my boyfriend, watching Doctor Who and I have just finished watching TCON: Voyage of the Dawn Treader! I think it is time I go to sleep, trip to London to see the Step Dads relatives for his dads 80th!
Good night my lovelies, stay beautiful!

A special thank you to Harlow, a!ko, Naka, Ice Pandora, xXxStundonxXx, rae, Jennifer and Fern Li for your lovely comments! I feel so much better being back!


I am restarting my weight loss diary, as I have been pigging out for the past month >_< Naughty me!
SO I weighed myself and my current weight is 13st 4 3/4lbs, which isn't as bad as I thought it would be! Probably due to all that hill walking when I visited my friend!


Anyways, this is just a quick blog post, I have to go to college now!
Thank you again for being so awesome!! I really missed you guys!


STAY BEAUTIFUL <3
