My Current Primer Favourites

Primer is a bit of a new addition to my make-up bag but ever since I started using it I wouldn't be able to go back. I've been trying out lots of different primers to find the best ones suited to me and the two that I'm currently loving are simple drugstore purchases that can easily be picked up in  Boots or Superdrug.

Asos Swimsuit | £18

With a potential last minute May holiday on the agenda I need to start getting my summer holiday wardrobe together. I don't normally wear swimsuits as I like to tan my stomach but as I love this so much I'm willing to sacrifice the tan for a day! Although I think I'll be saving it for the last few days of the holiday when I'm not quite as pale- a white swimsuit and pasty skin wouldn't be a great look.

Woburn Safari Park

Since James and I have left university and moved back to our family homes it's become a lot more difficult to see each other. With James living just outside of Milton Keynes and me living closer to Windsor (an hours drive) along with the fact that both of us work full time, we're now restricted to seeing each other only at the weekends. We've been doing this for about 7 months now so I've become pretty used to it and I like that it makes me feel that I've always got something lined up for the weekends. Often when we visit each other we'll go out for dinner and drinks or stay in and watch films however recently we've decided that when we go to see each other it would be nice to make an effort to plan to do something a little bit different and so this weekend we took a trip to Woburn Safari Park.

Sunshine and Snow in Austria

Last week I had the pleasure of skiing at an altitude of up to 2800m with beautiful sunshine and stunning views in the most gorgeous resort of Ischgl, Austria. I'm now sitting back at home in the drab English weather and it would be truthful to say that I'm sad to be home! We had such a good time and this is what we got up to whilst we were away...

Misguided- Sleeveless Trench Coat £35

I've been wanting this jacket for a few weeks but it's currently out of stock. It's a gorgeous pale grey and will be perfect for meeting up for lunch with the girls. Now we're approaching spring it's about time that my thick winter coats get put to the back of the wardrobe and I start bringing out much lighter jackets. I'll team this with a long sleeved top on those sunny-but-windy days where it's too cold for bare arms, but weather appropriate, I'll go totally sleeveless. I'm hoping Misguided get it back in stock soon!

Lookfantastic Haul

Last Wednesday I received an absolute delight of an email informing me that Lookfantastic were offering 20% discount! Quite often I have to stop myself from going on their website otherwise I'll lose self-control and buy pretty much everything on there; but on this occasion I just couldn't resist. This was a 'Beat the Beauty Clock' promotion lasting for one day where the discount drops by 1% every hour. I've had a few things that I've been wanting to buy for a while but just haven't got round to it so this was the perfect opportunity. The clock started at 9am but as I was starting work at 9.30am I didn't get round to ordering till about 11am so the discount had dropped to 18%, but this was still a very generous amount off!

Moroccanoil Hair Care

Moroccanoil is one of my favourite hair care brands. I first started using it nearly 2 years ago and it has done wonders for my hair. Those who know me are all too familiar with my hair problems and whilst I don't think that there will ever be a cure for my wild mane, there are certain products that definitely help.
