Every girl has that one item of make up... when visiting Boots/Superdrug/John Lewis etc etc etc, she always leaves with a new one (even if she doesn't need one or already has three in the same shade).. well for me that cosmetic is lipstick.
NOTHING TO WEAR
Monday, 11 August 2014
We all have those days when even though we have thousands of clothes to choose from, we still manage to convince ourselves that we have nothing to wear. 'Nothing to wear days' seem to occur at the worst of times which get you all hot and flustered whilst desperately emptying your wardrobe (typically when you're running late). Everything is there but it just seems to be all wrong. Well, all prayers have been answered as I now have something to wear on one of 'those' days; this is definitely my new fall back T-shirt.
SUMMER SUN
Thursday, 24 July 2014
The time has finally come as I jet away on holiday with my family in less than 2 days! There is nothing I want more right now than to be lying by the pool in the sun and getting my tan on. Of course, I've been shopping and I thought i'd show you a few of my holiday bits and bobs that I've bought within the last few weeks (minus the wintery coloured check shirt). It can't be just me that thinks its acceptable to pretty much buy a whole new wardrobe for every holiday you go on, who's with me?! Also... I find it very difficult to photograph clothes when you're not wearing them.. so excuse the amateur photographs *hand covers face*.
BITS AND BOBS: MISSGUIDED & ZARA
Tuesday, 24 June 2014
So I've been doing a little bit of online shopping the past week or so and I just wanted to show you the few bits and bobs that I have bought... You know when you're looking for one thing in particular and then 'accidentally' ending up with 6 other things in your basket... *oops* With my holiday slowly approaching, I really wanted some more summery skirts/shorts to take with me and the Zara sale had a few hidden gems. Missguided also came to the rescue as I was stuck last minute on what to wear on a night out with the girls so I went for the safe option of ordering two simple bralets (gotta have options right?) and pairing it with high waisted black trousers and heels.. sorted.

ALL HAIL THE BUBBLEGUM LIP SCRUB FROM LUSH. This little pot lasts you a life time and only costs £5.50. I've had this product well over 2 years now and it's nowhere near in need of replacing. I never really buy lip scrubs or anything from Lush apart from the odd bath bomb here and there.. but after being talked into buying this lip scrub by the sales advisor, I am so glad I bought it.
"IF YOU READ A LOT, NOTHING IS AS GREAT AS YOU'VE IMAGINED. VENICE IS -- VENICE IS BETTER"
Saturday, 14 June 2014
Venice is a destination that seems to be on everyone's bucket list... It's just one of those places that you see on TV and convince yourself that there's nothing more that you want to do than relax on a Gondola along the Grand Canal with champagne in one hand and a slice of fresh Italian pizza in the other. Let me tell you that the TV & the glossy magazines don't even show a fraction of its beauty. Venice is incredible... something about the fact that the whole city is built on water makes it so unique and picturesque... it is without a doubt the most gorgeous place I have ever visited. Here is my Venice experience:

BLACK IS THE NEW BLACK
Tuesday, 3 June 2014
So the time has come and I have finally finished my first year of uni.. which means I am home and back to normality for just over 3 months. Blogging has always been something that I've been interested in and over many years I've created a handful of blogs which I haven't stuck to or posted regularly on. This is why I am setting myself a goal for the summer.. Katie don't just sit around watching endless episodes of Gossip Girl on Netflix, get blogging!
We all have that one major problem when creating a blog... coming up with a blog name. Something that sounds so simple turns out to be one massive headache trying to avoid the cliche, the cringe and the unoriginal... and when you finally come up with a name SOMEBODY ELSE ALREADY HAS IT. Sadly, when your brain shrivels up and you can't think of a replacement you result to adding extra letters or numbers which is why my blog unfortunately has two k's unnecessarily added to the end *sigh*.
Not only is this a problem, but trying to design a layout that looks just slightly professional is proving difficult.. this is a tad embarrassing as I did ICT at A Levels *double sigh*. So bear with me as I get my blog up and running whilst experimenting with different layouts and designs. Do expect to see posts on beauty, fashion and lifestyle (by lifestyle I mean posts about how much I love the Kardashians).
With love xo
