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!

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…
I’ve always loved quirky looking jewelry, something that looks a bit different. I’ve never been a traditional jewelry type girl, I’ve always loved huge necklaces and crazy rings. So when I was sent this unusual looking bracelet from Ilcentimetro I was excited to wear it. Ilcentimetro do their bracelets in a range of colours, and I received the ‘Arctic White’ shade, and already…
Gosh there’s been so many good freebies around this month! Another one I’ve managed to get my hands on is Marie Claire, with a Inika eye shadow or eyeliner, I managed to get the eye shadow. The eye shadow comes out as a silver/purple/glittery kinda colour, which I love although I haven’t had much of…
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….
It seems like everyone and their Nan is obsessed with Loom Bands these days. Not really being ‘down with the kids’ I didn’t get what all the fuss was about. Why make bracelets out of small elastic bands? It wasn’t until I saw a few images of people who’d made other things out of them I realised…
