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!
Is it just me, or is Christmas sneaking up on us a little now? It’s getting a little scary how close it is now, and I’m nowhere near finishing my Christmas shopping. Following on from my previous gift guides (for her, and foodie gifts), I’ve got a few ideas for gifts for him, and if you’re…
I like to think of myself as a creative person, always having some sort of craft project on the go. Sadly I’m not the best at making things, and I’m really not artistic, but it doesn’t stop me having a go! This year I wanted to have a go at making my own Christmas decorations…
When it comes to my nails 99% of the time I’m wearing a neutral brown/taupe shade. I used to be experimental and wear all sorts of shades of different colours, but over the past year I’ve found myself wearing more and more neutral shades. A recent shade that’s made loads of appearances on my nails lately is…
I’ve never really been one to post outfits of the day type of posts for a few reasons. One, because I’m not really into fashion at all. I’m hopeless at it and I’ve never really been into it like I have with beauty. Two, I have no idea how some fashion bloggers take such amazing…
For today’s Blog Takeover I have Lucy from Absolutely Lucy talking about staying beautiful at festivals and what to pack. I really like this post and will take on board Lucy’s recommendations if I go to a festival! I’m trying my hand at something new here – not usually a beauty blogger but I’m always up for a challenge and…
I’ve seen this floating around on a couple of blogs today and thought I’d give it a wurl too 🙂 Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eye liners, lipsticks and lip glosses or lose all your palettes and eye shadows? Lose all my palettes and eye shadows. I couldn’t live without mascara…
