Visit to Towneley Hall

Hey dolls! Sorry I haven't posted on here in a while, I have been so busy. My 4 year old cousin came up to visit us so we have been busy trying to entertain her. The other day we went to Towneley Hall in Burnley and it was so beautiful. These are just some of the pictures that I took whilst going round. 

Skirt: Topshop - Top: F&F at Tesco - Cardigan: New Look - Shoes: Matalan

Due to my not posting on here as often as I used to, I have decided to try and do an OOTD post to encourage me to post more often. I thought this one would be a good post to start of with as it was such a lovely day out. 

I hope you are all having a lovely week!

Just a quickie!

Top: Primark - Trousers: Topshop - Sandals: Topshop 

Today was one of those days where I wanted to make an effort but I just didn't know what I wanted to wear. I eventually opted for my green trousers and a new top I bought from Primark. The top was in the sale at an amazing £2, so I bought 2, one in a cream colour and one in black. I know it looks a bit boring, but when winter comes and I can throw a massive chunky cardigan over the top I am sure it will look better. 

I went to Manchester (again) to meet up with some of my University friends as I hadn't seen them for months! We had a wonder around and finally found ourselves in the window seats of Costa Coffee people watching. I can honestly say that there are some scary people in Manchester, and some that clearly got dressed in the dark. However there were some people who looked amazing! How people shop in heels I don't know but there were lots of women in six inch heels that looked fabulous!

Charity shop love!

Dress: Charity Shop - Cardigan: New Look

I bought this dress from a charity shop and I absolutely love it! I love the colours and the bands that go across the dress. It is also one of those dresses that you can dress up or dress down really easily. It isn't very often I find something in a charity shop that I really like but I have to say that this dress will be worn a hell of a lot!

What's in my garden?

So a lot of people on their blogs do a 'what's in my handbag' post or a 'what's on my desk post' so I decided to do a 'what's in my garden' post. The main reason for this is because currently my handbag only holds my purse and a packet of tissues which isn't exciting or blogworthy, and my desk is currently at uni where I am not. Therefore, I decided to show you guys what bits and pieces I have in my garden. 

1. Flowers: We have a hell of a lot of flowers. My mother loves her flowers. All colours and varieties, big and small, plain and vibrant. These ones are some of my favourites. 
2. Fairies: At the start of our garden, we have a small rockery which is home to a variety of fairies. They sit in beside the plants and rocks and generally just look pretty whilst bringing some magic into the garden. 
3. Strawberries: Every year my mother grows strawberries. They are delicious! Only a few ever actually grow to full size but it makes you appreciate them that little bit more. 
4. Gnomes: Now then, gnomes play a very important part in our garden. They are the garden protectors and look after all the flowers and the fairies when we aren't there. Personally, I find them a bit scary, but that is what you want in a garden protector right?! They ll have names and lets just say they aren't normal names. 
5. Lanterns and Solar Lights: At night time when the moon and the stars are out, it is lovely to look out and see the garden lit up. As well as being good for the environment, some of the solar lights are disguised as rocks so they blend in with the rockery and other surroundings. 
6. Ornaments: These are just a few of my favourite things that don't really fit into a certain category. 

I hope this post hasn't bored you too much, but I thought I would share something a bit different.

Coral and Green?

Cardigan: New Look - Top: Topshop - Trousers: Topshop - Shoes: Matalan - Earrings: Primark 

 Hello Lovelies!!!! So it turns out that I really am a techno-moron! Just when I think I understand something it turns out that it wasn't what I thought or that I hadn't done it properly. Thanks to my lovely sister though I am back on track! (Until the next time)

So I am loving these trousers that I bought from Topshop. Aren't they pretty!?!? When I was in the shop I had no idea what I was going to wear with them, but at £22 (£19.80 with 10% student discount) I just couldn't say no! I tried on a few things and decided on another Topshop item, my coral colour strap top and my cardigan from New Look. I wasn't sure if it looked right or not so I thought  I would let you decide.

To take our pictures, my sister and I decided seeing as it was a nice day to go to our little local park. The first picture we took under this huge tree which is why it is a bit shady. It is a lovely little park to take pictures or go for a walk so we thought we would make the most of it.

I hope you are all well and are having a good week so far. I am going back to uni in a few weeks so need to make the most of being at home. Anyone starting uni or going back this September?
