LCF O.O.T.D with Motel Rocks Dress



Dress - Motel Rocks
Scarf - Vivienne Westwood
Coat - Whistles
Bag - Zara City Bag
Lips - MAC Rebel 

These pictures were taken on Wednesday thanks so my lovely friend Liv.
I need to learn what to do with my face in photographs I always feel so awkward about my mouth I think this stems from when I had terrible teeth and braces. I think its one of those things you have to practice in the mirror until you know one that isn't going to look horrific. 
Uni is going well this term, It is very business and computer based rather than sketching and making garments. I am quite enjoying playing on illustrator and photoshop as I think that digital marketing is the career path I want to go down, but only time will tell. I met up with my lovely friend Lucy from work on wednesday afternoon and had a lovely time as always. You know when you just click with a friend and you can be as weird as you want and know there even weirder... god knows how people put up with us a work. 

I have sort of accidentally fallen into a posting schedule what I am super happy about, I am really enjoying blogging again what feels great to share what I am doing with you guys.

Lots of Love Kate xo

Yesterday was a nightmare I was up at 6:10am and the trains were buggered due to a signal problem at Waterloo. I hate being late for things and it gets me all anxious. After sending an email to my lecturer and getting my friends to tell him I was going to be late, running across Oxford Circus like a mad women... Everyone else was running late so I started right on time. Nothing like a bit of late trains to get you flustered.

They day perked up after a bit of light shopping (mentioned in Yesterdays Post ) I cheered right up. I was back earlier than expected so met James for lunch I did end up getting stuck in his car park and he had to come rescue me but its all part of the fun.

I just went for a comfortable and relaxed look yesterday and I am still loving my nike blazers. My make up is pretty minimal as it was a way up to longer in bed or a full face.

Have a nice day, Lots of Love Kate xo

Jo Malone, Bumble and Bumle, Whistles and Zara Home Haul (Part Two)












Shopping, because what use is a credit card in your coffin?

Zara Home : Blue Door Cushion  // Astrology Cushion
Jo Malone : Pomegranate Nior Bath Oil
Bumble and Bumble : Seaweed Shampoo // Creme De Coco Conditioner
Whistles: Calf Hair Loafers (Sale not available online, in store only)

This is part two of my haul if you haven't checked out Part One Here

I know beauty experts are going to kill me for this but I didn't get matching shampoo and conditioner, I want two different treatments from my hair washing routine. I need scalp nourishment from my shampoo to help with my eczema and I need shine and frizz control from my conditioner. After being brought several bumble and bumble styling sprays and serums it felt only natural to venture into the shampoos. I will report later if they make any difference compared to my usual redken treatments. 
Jo Malone well why the hell not? There is nothing I love more after a stressful day, than having a bath. I don't think just pumping some body wash to create bubbles really relaxes me so I fancied a extremely luxurious purchase. 

These shoes however where not a planned purchase we had a return of these to work in the navy blue I tried them on about 10 times hoping they were somehow going to fit but being 4 sizes to big that was never going to happen. I met my sister in law (easier to say that rather than an family tree outline) to pick up my beauty bits and she dangerously sent me down a side road to head back to oxford circus and there happened to be a whistles calling my name... One thing led to another and I was typing my pin and sending over £45 (even the sales assistant said they were a bargain). 

Lastly these Zara home purchases took a lifetime to arrive but they were shipped from Milan so I can't complain to much. After moving in last April I sort of decorated the flat quickly and never added soft furnishings, before you know it you just get used to how things look. However our bedroom is a very cream and plain room and not that cosy so I wanted to add some colour and texture through these cushions. James doesn't get cushions he thinks if you can't lay on them and if you have to remove them before bed and put them back on in the morning, then they aren't for filling there cushion destiny. I firmly disagree...

Hope today is treating you kind, lots of love Kate xx

Monday Happy Days O.O.T.D









Zara Skort
Vera Moda Jumper
Zara HUGE Scarf
Matalan Studded Pointed Pumps
ASOS gold choker
L'Oreal Miss Manga Mascara (purchased via teso) 

So after changing my diet quite dramatically (bye bye coke-a-cola) I am slowly feeling a better. Today is my day off uni so I normally have an amazing lay in and potter around the house doing little chores. I met Jim for lunch at work just as the horrendous down pore came (sods law).
My gorgeous friend Liv started a blog on friday so you should have a little ponder over there, Liv goes to LCF and is on my course.  
Finally my ZARA HOME order turned up after 2 weeks so I can finish the 2nd part of my haul. I am really pleased with what came as ordering online you never know the sizes of things or what the quality is going to be. 
This post is very list like but I've got lots to say today. I have been thinking about what to do to my hair as the blonde has gone a little brassy a problem I've never had before. Unfortunately my 6 year long hairdresser isn't a hairdresser any more so I've had to revert back to salons. I always feel like they don't really listen to what I ask and just do something bog standard. You start to notice that everyone looks the same as they walk out the doors. I really want to try Headmasters in my local town but I've never been before, have any of you? They do 25%off for students but I know its going to be a huge amount of money compared to my £30 mates rates. I am thinking of having more of my natural colour put back in (a mousey brown/dark blonde) and just having a few blonde highlights to break it up in the mid to end section of my hair. What do you think? I've re-posted hundreds of pictures on my MY PINTEREST of what I am thinking so go over and have a look I would love some help.

Hope monday treats you well, Lots of love Kate xo
