Holiday Style Diary - Day 2


Top - River Island/ Shorts - River Island/ Kimono - Topshop/ Shoes - ASOS/ Lipstick - Topshop Infrared/ Bag - Boohoo

Apologies again for some of the awful photos, I'm still getting used to fashion blogging and my boyfriend definitely isn't David Bailey (sorry con!)

For someone highly self conscious like myself when it comes to body confidence, these River Island shorts are an absolute godsend! They cover in all the right places and are unbelievably comfortable.. none of the usual denim shorts squeezing the life out of you (maybe this is just me?!). I'm also a hugeeee lover of the kimono trend so i'm going to wear this over anything and everything.

Holiday Style Diary - Day 1


Top - River Island/ Skirt - River Island/ Bag - River Island/ Shoes - ASOS 

Technically this should be my second day of holiday style diary but I just couldn't bare getting my pasty white skin out after just one day for a blog post. I clearly haven't inherited my skin colouration from my italian half!

I was a little wary about buying this skirt as it is quite slim fitting and I have been both blessed and cursed with wide hips but I'm glad I did! 

I'm slowly turning my mister into my blog photographer... slowly is the word so I apologise for unclear photos! My hair is also covering the top of the crop top (oops!) but it is racer style and can be bought at either the River Island stores or on ASOS!

NIP + FAB




I have wanted to try the Nip + Fab products for a while but I was obviously sceptical... anything that claims to give me 'abs daily' sounds a bit unrealistic. However, as Millie Mackintosh has just been announced as the face of the brand, I figured I would give it a try if she was willing to put her name behind a brand! Also this was a last chance at clawing back a bikini body before my holidays!

I researched this endlessly beforehand as I was looking at paying £19.50 for a product that could end up being just a nice smelling moisturiser. Thankfully I found that Superdrug have the Nip + Fab range on half price offer at the moment so I bought this whilst it was cheap to see whether it lived up to its rave reviews.

I have been using this now for around 2 weeks and admittedly my skin does feel tighter around my tummy and hips but I'm unsure if this is a result of the cream, my exercise routine or just a mind game of both! It smells lush, is a really good moisturiser (albeit an expensive one) and if the cream is behind the skin tightening... it is well worth the money! I'll be trying the Body Fix next time to be used after exercise!

PUPPY LOVE




CATCH UP

There have been quite a few reasons I haven't been able to maintain my blog but exams were primarily the reason. I spent about a month in breakdown mode and living in books but between finishing my last exam and now i've had a pretty busy time so I just wanted to do a photo catch up.

FRESH START

Unfortunately I completely lost track of my blog when the stress of exams started and then never managed to pick it back up although I intended to. After reading through my posts, I was a little disappointed that they weren't coming across as I wanted them to and it seemed like I was trying to be too bloggy(?!) and not really myself.

I really wanted to restart my blog but then I didn't want to lose what I had already done so I figured the best thing to do was put the past in the past and continue as I wanted it to come across! 

I have done some really exciting things since my last blog and I will do some update blogs from the past couple of missed months but I also have some really exciting things planned for the future as all my girls have returned from uni and travelling so hopefully, I might have a more interesting blog. 

I also have stupid amounts of brand new clothes that I can hopefully do some fashion blogs on as other than on holiday, they don't tend to be worn very often! 

So heres to a fresh start!
