I don't get up for less than at least 5 figures darling ...



What is one picture that brought a smile to you today?
p/s Hello to you reading this right now :) Comment & say hi!

xx

Hello!

Hello lovely people, last week of October! Have you sorted out your Halloween outfits yet? What are you gonna be this year? I had the most fabulous weekend in London with the most amazing friends that I dont get to see enough!



My dancing outfit + comfy pjs watching ER eating chocolate at 4am ... because the kebab van was shut ha!

Lots of fun posts this week including a 'My day in pictures' tomorrow so stay tuned <3 What did you get upto in the weekend & how have you wrapped up warm in this cold weather?
I drive around in my comfy PJs in the morning to work to keep warm!!

Pretty Ruffle dress

I walked into River Island to get a pair of over the knee socks for £7 and somehow I ended up walking out with £78 worth of shopping! HOW? grr ... SALES! (so its okay!!) I never find size 8 in the River Island sale so when I saw heaps of size 8 I grabbed it all and headed to the changing room and somehow they found their way IN TO MY WARDROBE! I promise it's not my fault!

I found this pretty ruffle dress and thought ooh interesting - I really would love all you fashionista's honest opinions! I thought it'd look quite cute with cowboy boots (maybe??) or even the pair of booties pictured!




(Click to enlarge)

One of the problems with living at home is that I have to stuff bags of shopping all in one bag so it doesnt look too bad and sneak it upstairs! But I always get caught boo. Does anyone else have the same problem?



P/S Thanks for all your fun comments on this fun post - some of you have crazy imagination lol. Mayonnaise?? HOW? I can definitely see baby in blanket, kidney bean and croissant! But the first thought that came into my head when I saw it was a loopy heart (I try to see hearts in everything lol) but it didn't quite work so I saw a bean. As I looked on, I see a pair of shades. I think its my inner self conveying a message to me by making me see a pair of shades - I WANT TO GO ON A HOLIDAY!

Pictures!

Finally found my camera! Face of Saturday night:




I haven't been out for ages so I was really proud I could still remember night make-up! It's pretty much just black and gold as highlight. I am not that great at make up but am being inspired and learning from various make-up blogs I follow so THANK YOU! Eyelashes are Cheryl Cole ones - really like them as they are different to ones I usually wear! Well I had to peel the lash off the right eye as it was blocking my sight and I had to drive about 2 hours...so glad I didn't get pulled over with one side of lashes off and the other side still attached lol

And YES I have my hands on Leopard Print Coat - ohmylife just found out it's now 20% off - NOT FAIR!!!! Anyway I am slightly obsessed with leopard print this season - will be doing a feature on it soon! What are you into this season and do you love leopard prints too? Blog about your leopard print items, would love to see how you wear them!

xxxx

What do you see?

What do you see when you look at the picture above (the white string bit) without thinking too much about it???

Now give it some thought, and see what that initial thought develop into.


Be quite interesting to see what you make of it - comment with your reply and I'll tell you what I saw.


Jay


p/s I really won't think your reply would be silly or stupid in fact it will only fascinate me!!! So don't worry <3 also I should hide comments until such time everyone has commented, but it's too high-tech for me hah

Honestly, I will LOVE all your comments on what you see so leave one now! xxx


Much love!

A new unhealthy obsession...

It's pink. It's great. It's for girls who like nice stuff and it's made in the glamorous USA.




Yep Juicy found her way into my wishlist...I'm surprised at how well I've fended off Juicy up until a visit to Bicester Village with the new Juicy outlet there. The jewellery box itself is enough to make you want to buy something! If you want to see a purchase ... follow this blog on the right and check back this week <3


Are you Juicy & do you have any of their lovely stuff? If so, do share!!

Friendship Bracelets

Do friendship bracelets still exist and do you have any? If so, I'd love to see them!

I have heaps to write about but realise I left my camera at home boo but will get it on Wednesday hopefully & lots of fashion posts! Hope you all had a lovely weekend too! xxxx

☆ Twinkle twinkle little stars ☆

A few weeks ago I built up the courage and went to a ballet class after almost 10 years of missing in action. As much as I enjoyed it, it also made me feel a little ... depressed! I felt like a little failure having let go and losing sight of all my glittering dreams & passion from when I was younger! It's almost as if I've betrayed the mini-me.


If I could tell little Jay something now, I'd tell her to not worry and just keep spinning in her little pink tutu.
I'd also tell the 12 year old me to not be so arrogant to think that even if I stopped playing piano then I would get back into it easily because the 23 year old self at present is finding it extremely difficult, annoying and frustrating. If a 12 year old can read a piece of music and make her fingers glide ... surely an older version could as well? I'm gonna keep trying, wish me luck.
Have you any hobbies / talents / dreams that you lost sight of?

Brr...

The weather has suddenly gone cold (although there has been some signs of the sun lately). This time last year was a lot warmer & no need for tights just yet! Anyone else hates waking up in the dark & cold? I've had to bring out my cosy Laura Ashley bedspread to keep warm!



I know its a clash of florals I usually use this on plain beddings but its been so cold lately and it's just so snuggly and warm (ah I love sleep!) ... I have to literally peeeeel myself off in the morning!! As you can see mr. patch loves a bit of warmth & schnuggles too!

I've recently moved back home so been trying to unpack things and find a place for them (fitting a whole house into a bedroom is just impossible!) so I'll do a bedroom post soon! With a lot on my mind recently I've been lazy with outfits & make up & hair :(

Is there something you want/need to do but finding it difficult ie lack of motivation? I find that with myself almost DAILY! need more time / less hours at work?? Also show me your bed / bedroom & comment!! Would love to have a nose ;)

OOTD & new hair colour!

Why does the evening always go so quickly and the day so slowly?? Rarr :(
Anyway, outfit of the day:


Can't go wrong with a £3 dress from reduction line in Primark! Love that it's versatile and will go with practically anything!! Also the fact it is slightly vintagey with the A-line skirt bit. It would look great with cute white lace ankle socks & shoes!


New colour which is a couple shades lighter

Nighty night! xx

Mini me

a little shot of mini me ♥


Why not comment below and put a cute picture of mini you up?? Hope you've all had a great weekend xoxo
