Best of the best #4: My favourite heels

This should really be a wish list post as I want everything on here! I think everything here is under £25 too which is a bonus!

1) Matalan Studded Wedges // 2) eBay Cut Out Heels // 3) Primark Printed Cork Heels // 4) eBay Wooden Heels // 5) Matalan Wooden Platform Heels // 6) eBay White Buckle Sandal Heels

My internet's not been too good for the last few days, so I'm struggling to actually get some good posts up but please bare with me! Hopefully, when it's better I'll put the links up for the items. Anyway... on to the shoes, I love the cut out detail on pair number 2, I think the design is brilliant and simple. I'm forever seeing everyone in the number 4 heels and I really like them too, but I think my favourite pairs out of them all are number 3 because of the colour and print and number 6 because of the caged buckle design. Number 6 comes in three colours too I think and I found it hard to choose between the black and the white, but I picked white in the end because it's lighter for summer but I think black is really the safer and better option as they won't look as dirty when worn a few times and will be a whole lot easier to match with outfits.

Do any of these take your fancy?

Hey guys, hope you're all enjoying the weather. I've spent most of today indoors after getting a bit red yesterday, following hours in the garden and a walk up the mountain with my dad. It's been amazing though, fair play. Let's hope it stays a little longer. Also apologies for the face in the photo's, the suns a little bright!

Have a great night!

Who doesn't love floaty dresses, pretty shoes and gorgeous bright coloured nail polish shades for a summer holiday! All I've been thinking about recently is getting away into the sun and these are some pieces that have really caught my eye this season. [Sorry about the quality of some of the pictures, they're a little small and a bit blurry!]

Keeping it quick today as I'm knackered. I got up really early this morning after being up late last night and went into Cardiff to do some shopping. Couldn't believe how full it was. There were really good sales but the queues were soooo long. I gave up in the end, which is definitely not like me. BUT... this does mean I have a little haul post coming up soon now  as I shopped quite a bit... mostly bits for holidays. I actually bought the sandals (item number 6) in the image today, they were half price in Primark! Also got number 7 too from eBay delivered the other week but that's a different story, I'll throw that in a haul post too maybe.

Hope you've all had a great day and have a great weekend!

OOTD: Zara Floral Print Bomber Jacket

Bomber Jacket- Zara via eBay

T-shirt- Primark

Leggings- Select

Necklace- H&M

Rings- eBay

Bag- New Look via Asos

Chelsea Boots- F&F at Tesco

Hey Guys! So today, my mum and I headed out to do some shopping in Bridgend Town and then the McArthur Glen shopping outlet in Bridgend also and this is what I wore. I was sooo looking forward to getting this bomber jacket but if you follow me on twitter you would have seen that I got in on monday morning and the stitching in the side was all ripped and as a result is has a hole in it. I was gutted to say the least! I couldn't get a full refund for it when I contacted the seller as I would have had to send the jacket back and posting to China is bloody expensive so I decided to keep it and the seller gave me a partial refund. I'm hoping that my mum can sort it out for me though. She's pretty good with a sewing needle! Nevertheless I wore it today with my new New Look bag too!
We didn't really buy anything today apart from some cute storage boxes for my jewellery and treating my mum to some tops for her birthday that's next week. There are loads of sales on now too so everything nice was already sold or weren't in my size. Oh well!

I also found out my 2nd year uni grades today and I'm am chuffed to say that I passed with a higher overall mark than I expected! I got a 2:1! :D I can't wait to see my girls and celebrate with them!
If you're in uni and have had results like a lot people today, I hope you're all happy with your grades and go celebrate too!

Have a lovely evening!

Midi Tube Scarf Print Skirt- Asos

Bag- Primark

Necklace- eBay

Rings- River Island & eBay

Shoes- Internacionale

It's been long coming but I've finally got the pictures ready! Wooo! 

If you've been following my blog recently you will have known that last wednesday night I went out with three of my best mates! We've been friends since we were kids and we don't really see other much as we're all scattered around in different uni's so it's always nice to see these guys. They are the best and no matter where we go, we always have an amazing time! And last wednesday was no different. I'm pretty sure we all felt it in the morning. Ugh!

I wore my new Asos crop top with my new Asos scarf print tube skirt which I posted about recently in my New In Post. It's lovely... really thick... made it quite difficult to move your legs and get up stairs though! There was a little incident when getting up on the stage at one club where the girls literally had to pull me up and then catch me as I got down... haha, I'm glad I had a drink down me haha.

I didn't really take many snaps whilst we were out unfortunately so these are all I have...

On another note I've not really done much today, its just been one of those days. Anyway, tomorrow I plan on going shopping with my mum and I think I find out my 2nd year uni grades! Ahh! Fingers crossed for me guys!

Hope you've all had I brilliant day!

#2 DIY: Rings- Midi, Stackable & Spiral

Make your own rings

I am a huge fan of rings! Big ones, small ones, midi ones, ones for your thumb, ones for your pinky... basically what ever ring you can get, I've probably got it. So I decided I would give it a little go and make my own. They are soooo easy to make, ridiculously cheap and can be made in a matter of minutes. Here's how it's done...

 What you will need:

1) Some rounded measuring tools such as a pen or make up brush etc.

2) Coloured wire (I used Cooper and Ivory)

3) Pliers

4) Nail file

First off you will need to take your wire and wrap it around your rounded measuring tool what ever it may be (I used a sharpie pen for the spiral ring as I wanted it for my little finger)...

Take your pliers and cut it once you've decided on what size you want... once cut down you need to take your nail file and file down the edges so that they're not rough or sharp and don't catch onto your clothes!...

...And Voila! You're done and have your own diy spiral ring! Easy right!?

The others in the photo are just as simple to create... more simple in fact as you don't have to keep wrapping the wire around...

Wrap the wire around your finger to measure it and cut to size with your pliers...

...after being cut, keep your pliers and bend the edges up...

...and there you have it!

(Just remember to use your nail file again to make sure the edges are smooth and not sharp)

The other ones are just plain round band rings made in the same copper colour as well as the ivory colour... they are so simple and look effortlessly chic. You can easily wear as many as you like and stack the up. I think they are really cute.

There are your rings!

I bought my wire off eBay for £1.50 for 4m of each colour, they are so cheap! You can also get this sort of stuff off Amazon and craft shops and they are available in all sorts of colours too such as gold, copper, silver and ivory.

I really hope you liked this little diy ring tutorial... if you give it a go, post a comment to let me know... I'd love to see what rings you make and how you got on!
