Last weekend on the 20th May I had my university’s summer ball! It was bit of an excuse to get all dressed up, and have bit of a fancy night out. We went to a local venue in Leicester, called Athena, and had drinks and entertainment, including a band, and circus acts. Here’s some pictures from my night:
All of us girls and boys all fancy

Me and the boyfriend again – I love this photo!
I went with my boyfriend and a large group of friends, and we had a great night out! Here’s what I wore that night:
Floaty Floral Sundress – New Look – £34.99
Espadrille Wedge Court – New Look – £24.99
As I don’t normally get much of an excuse to dress up I decided to buy this dress from New Look, as I thought it was fancy enough for the event, but not too fancy that I couldn’t wear it again for a night out. I also don’t tend to wear heels these days, I used to a lot of the time, but since I came to uni I took up wearing flats as we tend to walk to nights out/home etc, and my poor feet couldn’t take it! As I wasn’t used to heels I decided to get myself a pair of wedge heels, as a friend recommended that they were much easier to wear, and my feet definitely survived in these shoes! So I might start taking up wearing heels again on nights out!
Sorry for my lack of posts lately, but I’ve been revising for my exam, which I had this morning and I’ve now finished my first year of uni! So four months of summer now, so expect loads of posts! And thanks to all of my new followers and everyone who’s reading my blog!
Sorry I haven’t written for a while but I’ve been off on an adventure to the North East! Well not so much of an adventure, but off to visit where my boyfriend’s from. I met my boyfriend at university, and he’s been down to where I live, but I’d never seen where he’s from. So…
A few months ago I took part in Clare from The Love Of All Things Beauty’s Christmas box swap, and I was lucky enough to be paired with Clare herself! I’ve know Clare since my early days of blogging so I was really pleased to swap with her. I’ve taken part in a few box swaps…
The days are starting to get brighter and warmer, and it’s starting to feel that summer is right round the corner. I’m looking forward to not having to wear a billion layers, and packing away my big winter jumpers for a few more months, and being able to wear pretty summer dresses in their places….
A few months ago I got asked if I wanted to take part in a knitting competition by Cosywool. I’m far from being a strong knitter, but since learning to knit last year I’ve found that I’m getting quite good at it. Luckily for me the competition wasn’t too complicated, it was just to knit a scarf in any style I…
Come the colder months I basically live in jeans and boots, in fact I have several pairs of boots that I break out at this time of year. Despite having a shoe shops worth of boots, I’m always looking out for a new pair, and that’s when this pair of Chelsea Boots caught my eye….
Every year I love being nosey on everyone’s blogs to see what they got for Christmas, and this year I decided to join in and share what I got so you can be equally as nosey ;). I had a rather lovely Christmas this year as my grandparents that I hardly get to see were…
