Tortoises

This is Bob and Fifi, they are tortoises.

Unfortunately they are not mine, we are just looking after them for my Aunty as she has gone on holiday for a couple of weeks, though it was a lovely surprise to come home, not only have I been greeted by these two gorgeous creatures but also two massive tanks of fish (again my Aunty's)!

LOVELY! enjoy xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Album of the Week: Gotye - Making Mirrors

So I downloaded this the other week and haven't really had chance to listen to it properly, and I still haven't really apart from around 4 listens of the whole album, however I have thoroughly enjoyed doing so!

It's such a good album for when you really need calm, relaxed music. I have mostly listened to it in the morning when I don't want anything too crazy going on whilst I'm getting ready to go to uni.

The album is very similar in sound to the debut single 'Somebody That I Used To Know', soothing songs with a bit of a kick to them, or so to say haha !

I recommend this album to anyone who likes easy listening music that can quite easily be sung along to, definately a good summer album as well !!

Favourite song - Smoke and Mirrors

Least favourite song - Making Mirrors (Though I guess it is kind of the introduction)

Rating - 4/5 !

All Things Topshop

Okay so not EVERYTHING i'm wearing is Topshop, and thank god, I wouldn't want to be the ultimate 'Topshop princess' but let's be honest Topshop has some great stock in at the moment and I couldn't resist buying a few key pieces that will all go together nicely.

• Vest top, Topshop
• Jeans, Topshop
• Shoes, H&M
• Necklace, Dorothy Perkins
• Cross earrings, Topshop
• Beaded bracelet, from Daddy from China
• Jesus bracelet, Ibiza
• Purple peace bracelet, HedKandi
• Beaded peace bracelet, Topshop
• Blue ring, Dorothy Perkins
• Red and beige plastic rings, Primark
• Gold band, sentimental piece given to me by my Mummy, it never ever ever comes off my finger !

Have you found any gems in Topshop recently?

Album of the Week: The Saturdays - On Your Radar

I am aware this album has been out for quite some time, but with the weather attempting a pick-me-up and the fact that I haven't properly listened to it yet I thought it needed a chance.

This was however entirely my itunes fault as I have 'automatically add songs to fill space' set up on my ipod and this is what it filled some space with.

I have been a fan of The Saturdays ever since they came onto the scene and their other albums are one of my personal go-to's when I want a sing song (sometimes an angry one) or even to belt some notes out, but when this album came out I must admit originally I was a little disappointed.

As it was on my ipod I decided to give it a proper listen and was actually rather impressed. Although many of the tunes seem as though they have been 'danced up' so that they can be transferred easily into clubs and bars there are also some gorgeous ballads.

I reckon if you are a fan of a good boogie, and a fabulous girl band, as well as a good sing-a-long this is definitely one for the summer months! Whenever I get a car (hopefully soon) I will be sure to be blasting some of these songs out !!

Favourite song - Get Ready, Get Set
Least favourite song - I Say OK
Rating - 3.5/5

Dipped Hem Skirt + Rimmel True Vintage Lipstick

So I bought myself this gorgeous turquoise-y blue dipped hem chiffon skirt from Primark, it was only £10 and I've been looking for one for a couple of weeks now, I wanted nude but this colour really caught my eye.

Now when I first tried it on, I was unsure if it suited me due to being a mere 5ft2" !

What are your thoughts? I have kept the price tag on, in case I do decide to take it back!!

I also thought I hadn't posted any lipstick shots in a while, this is Rimmel True Vintage and I love it, it's a really deep red-purple shade, which I think looks gorgeous!

It's definitely a winter shade, so due to the weather being grim today I decided it was the right type of weather to rock it before all the pastels come out in the spring/summer!

What are your favourite dark lipsticks?
Hope you're all having a lovely day xxxxxxxxxxxxx
