Fun Halloween Fashion

I am a huge lover of Halloween any excuse to get dressed up whether it be spooky, silly or sexy...but I know not everyone is the same.
This year I've noticed so many fun and cool bits and bobs online for Halloween - so if you're not a fancy dress fan keep your eyes peeled as there are some amazing alternatives below! I want it all!!!

Dress Like Disney #10 : Peter Pan, Tinkerbell & Wendy

Right.... this week's DLD is going to be slightly different!

This post took me about 5 hours and the next day it somehow got deleted from my scheduled posts - which can I just say was so so traumatic!

So unfortunately there will be no links with the pictures today like normal as it will take me hours and hours again trying to find everything - I'm so so sorry, hope you can all just enjoy them as pictures and if you are dying to know where something is from please just ask and I'll be able to tell you.

My Personalised Phone Case From Mr. Nutcase

It is sad to admit but my phone is like an extra limb. I have an iPhone 5s and I am on it for hours a day I reckon - a total blessing but a total curse at the same time.

Not only am I addicted to my phone but I love love love getting new cases for it! Is that a bit sad?

You've probably noticed in my ebay wishlists that I am forever looking at new phone cases! There are so many and I can never choose one!

So what better for me than a personalised phone case!

Instead of just picking one photo for the case I decided to go for one of the many collage designs they have to offer - mainly because I couldn't just pick one that I wanted!

It was so fun to make but I did spend FOREVER choosing what photos I wanted where - I'm a right fussy one me!

Personalised Phone Case - Mr. Nutcase*

For the top half of the case I chose....

Doll & I in her wedding party photo booth ♥ Me and my girls at the Bestival 2013 all in fancy dress ♥ A sign post from the Wizarding world of Harry Potter at Universal!

For the bottom half of the case I chose :

One of my favourite photos I took at Disneyworld in 2012 ♥ Times Square NY from our trip round the US ♥ Me & the girls in Zante getting a bit hyper ♥ Doll & I in the Magic Kingdom ♥ my little puppy Bauer!

I love that the sides of the case are clear (especially as I have a pretty gold iphone)! It looks a million times better than other cases I have and I was so happy when I saw the case in real life as it looks so much better than I was anticipating!

These case are just £14.95 on Mr. Nutcase and they do a number of different phone device's along with Apple and they even so iPads! There are also a number of different styles of case to choose from so if you aren't keen on just the back clip-on case like mine there are others that may take your fancy!
And guess what?! If you make a case on Mr. Nutcase today you can get get 10% off with discount code "Thanku10"!

I love my case so much, it's so nice to have some of your favourite photos with you at all times and it really does make your phone yours!

What do you think? What phone case do you have?

The BEST Festival - BESTIVAL

If you haven't heard of Bestival... where have you been?! This year was the 10 year anniversary and one of the best line ups yet!
If you've read my blog before then you know that I actually live on the Isle Of Wight (where Bestival is held) so obviously each year me & all my friends get seriously excited as soon as September begins!
This year, firstly, I need to say a HUGE thank you to Schuh, who, on twitter, randomly found me and GAVE me and one of my best friends a ticket each for no reason at all and just as "a random act of kindness" - I am still in shock, made my year.
Bestival is a fancy dress festival and on the Saturday thousands and thousands of people dress up to the theme - this years theme was HMS Bestival and not only did everyone get involved and look amazing but there was an actual ship on site which was turned into a stage!

My weekend was amazing , highlights included -me and my friends all dressing up as fish in green sequin dresses, one of my best friends surprising us by coming home from her season in Greece early to party with us (an amazing reunion), a motorbike stunt sh0w called the Wall Of Death and watching Elton John live!
Here's a few photos I took over the weekend .....

A massive thank you to Schuh!

Finally sat down after a morning of tent building.
