Fashion : Peek-a-Boo Playsuit

Lipstick : Mac Rebel
Boots : New Look

Well it's been a while since I uploaded a fashion based post and even though this month marks my 2nd whole year of blogging, it still makes me nervous! Putting my whole self out there is a little bit daunting but I really like doing them so I just have to be brave and hit publish!

Playsuits are a big love of mine, I'm not the skinniest of girls but I feel like they can be really flattering when you have a right style.
This floral beaut is from The Fashion Bible and it is one of their limited edition pieces! I dyed my hair pink earlier this week and popped a photo up on twitter and I think I had just as many tweets about the playsuit I was wearing as I did the hair change!

When I first looked at it I was so in two minds regarding the cut out section.... my boobs aren't my best feature so having them on show isn't something I do....ever... but I was off out with the girls for a few drinks so thought - why not!
I'm not overly confident with my body and it's still a bit bloomin' chilly here so I decided to pair it with some black tights and my favourite lace up black boots. (which I have soooo over-worn but I can't help it... I love them.)

I LOVE the pattern so much, although it's a dark floral it still has those bright pretty colours to help it fit into the Spring season. The fit (size M) is perfect for me, I'm a size 10-12 and it feels really comfy, it is quite short for me (I'm around 5 8") but the floaty material hides this, thank goodness!

This Week I'm Loving... #15


The Girl On The Train
Yes I am finally reading again! I took four books from my parents bookcase a few weeks ago, this being one of them! My Mum read it recently and said it was brilliant so I thought I would give it a go. So far, so good!

Hollyoaks
I know this is obviously something I watch every week but I'm loving the storylines at the moment! I can't wait for Mercedes to come back and for Kim to be revealed as a nutter haha!

Clearasil Rapid Action Treatment Cream
Unfortunately the last week or so I have had some friends join me on my face..... the big red ugly kind! This stuff is what I run too as soon as I have an unwanted zit - it works like a charm for me and has helped me vend these beasts off!

Sunshine (Finally!)
ENGLAND HAS HAD SUNSHINE! Yes it's true that big ball of fire in the sky does actually work. It's amazing how much it can change my mood and put a smile on my face!
 I went for a lovely walk along to seafront with my favourite songs playing in the week and it really lifted my spirits - it's the little things in life!

Ralph Lauren 5150 Sunglasses
With sun comes sunglasses, these are my total and utter favs at the moment - I did a blog post on them a few months ago! They are great for my face shape (aka a massive face!) and I think the pink detailing on the arms and inside.

Special K Porridge Pot
I love porridge and I love easy porridge. I have been having these for lunch everyday with a few almonds and raisins chucked in - they are great if you are on the go and so, so yummy!

Revenge
I know this was in my 'TWIL' post last week BUT I have still been watching it ... ALOT. I'm half way through season 2 already and am still loving Emily Thorne and her antics!

MAC Viva Glam Miley Lipstick
Most worn lip colour of the week has to go to Miley once again! I love this bright pink shade and have even been wearing it to work!
Writing
Like I said earlier in my "Me Project" post, one of my missions for this year is to write a book! I have now started to draft out my idea and expand my thoughts for it, hopefully soon I can get started on the proper writing - I'm excited for it.

Zoeva Luxe Cheek Brush
This has been my favourite brush for contouring for months now ..... and I'm not sure how it hasn't been mentioned on here yet! It's the perfect angled shape to use with my matte bronzer and highlighters to create great daily contour!

Lee Stafford Poker Straight Flat Iron Protection
Since getting my haircut I have been styling it alot more, which of course means alot more products and alot more protection! The 2 heat protectant's I was using have totally run out so after hunting through my haircare stash I found this beaut which I hadn't used in month! I'd forgotten how fab it was and how much I love the scent!

Ralph Lauren 5150 : Sunglasses Shop

Now if you think that sunglasses are only for those summer months then you are seriously mistaken! 
That winter sun can be a totally blinding when it's out (it does happen I promise, it's not always doom and gloom), so having a good pair of sunglasses is definitely a priority of mine even if it's that advent calendar time of year!
Cat eye glasses have been storming the sunglasses scene this past year or so, with celebrity's and high street stores embracing the trend they have been everywhere!

Recently the SunglassesShop asked me if I would like to try one of their pairs of sunglasses, so of course I leaped at the chance!
 Like I said before, sunglasses are something I need all year round and I always like to have pair in my handbag..... just in case that cheeky little sun decides to pop it's head through the never-ending clouds!
These are the 5150 sunglasses from the fabulous Ralph Lauren in the shade - Tortoise Pink Plum and they are priced at £77.
I think sunglasses are one of the few things that I don't mind paying more than high-street prices for. Alot of sunglasses out there don't have the right amount of protection in the lenses and the fit can be a bit rubbish - so you always know when buying designer sunglasses they are going to be a higher quality!

I love the shape of these glasses, I'm a bit fussy when it comes to size as I feel like I have  huge head so need a fairly big frame to suit me and the shade of the lense is lovely too - I don't like it when they really see-through and you can see my beady eyes clearly!

Keep your eyes peeled on my instagram and twitter for more photos of these beauts - I wore them the other day and got some lovely compliments, I'm officially obsessed and praying for more sunshine this winter... I can't wait until next year to wear these more!

Make sure you check out SunglassesShop for a huge range of designer glasses at really reasonable prices - they could make the perfect Christmas present for someone.... your yourself!
