Well deserved dress haul

I haven't really been a clothes buyer in recent months.  I kind of put myself on a ban due to the fact I'm on Slimming World and I'm slowly shedding the pounds.  Nine pounds and counting...woop woop.

My current thoughts are...why buy clothes if they are only going to be too baggy and loose in a few months??  Why waste the money...might as well make do with what I already own.

I have noticed my clothes start to loosen already, so as a small treat I picked up three Primark dresses.  They are only £10 each, three dresses for £30... bargain!!! Some people buy just one dress for £30!


I already wore the navy dress on Friday to work and I had a few nice comments about the dress. Smiles.  The polyester dresses are quite girly, they finish just slightly above the knee.  Pulled in elastic waist and loose flowing sleeves.  Wear with a belt or without, looks good either way. 

I think these are perfect for summer days at work and summer nights out in the pub beer garden.  You could wear these in the Autumn with some thick denier tights and knee boots.

Have you bought any cute summer outfits???

NPOTW - Boots 17 in Pinking Shears

I'm really into painting my nails at the moment.  I have so many colours right now, it's kind of difficult to keep to just one.  If you like pearl-like nails, perhaps this will take your fancy...?

Boots 17 High Gloss Polish in Pinking Shears

Inexpensive at £3.99, this pearly shimmering pink is a pretty colour.  It is very glossy without even applying a top coat to finish.  This looks gorgeous enough with just one coat, but two to three is just perfect.

This is available nationwide at Boots Stores.  They also have more colours to choose from.  Boots always seem to have 'Buy three, get the cheapest for free' or 'Buy two for £5' type of offers which you could take advantage of.  Or if you've saved up your Boots Advantage Points, why not spend no money at all and buy this on your points!!!

Don't throw it out....

Mend it!! 

Last August I blogged here about how my 2 week old Benefit SugarBomb exploding into a gazillion pieces.

Remember this horror scene...?
At the time I just shoved the box into my vanity draw and forgot about it.  Then recently I finished with my pot that my Laura Mercier under eye powder came in....then almost like a light bulb above my head, it came to me.  Ding dong!  Use the empty pot for my SugarBomb...genius

Empty L.M. pot, pop off the sieve part

Pour your SugarBomb into the empty L.M. pot, squish the bigger bits into a powder....

Pop the sieve part back on

Shake it up baby....with the lid on obviously.....et viola!!!!

Tad daaaa

My advice don't throw things out, try and make it work for you.  This broke into pieces and I didn't throw it out.  It may of taken nearly a year to figure out the answer...but I got there!
