So Happy I Could Cry
Aloha! Wow, what a day. This morning my wonderful Fiance bought us tickets to see one of my most favourite bands, Queens of the Stone Age. I am SO excited I could cry.
Meet Mr. Josh Homme…can’t wait to see him in November!! If you don’t know who Queens of the Stone Age are then check them out… they are amazing!
I went out today & bought their new album ‘….Like Clockwork’ so far it is amazing.
Anyway, after all that excitement I went holiday shopping to get the final bits & pieces.
First on my list was lots of Hawaiian Tropic. I love their products, anything that smells of coconut is a must have for me. I picked up some Beach Balm & After Sun which will be perfect for my trips to Gran Canaria & Tenerife.
I also managed to pick up another Flower Crown. This is from Primark & was only £3.00. It is however, rather, large & I am a little nervous to wear it. It does look so pretty & I will most likely keep it & wear it on holiday with a maxi dress.
Now, I know I didn’t need any more rings but these cuties were a bargain in H&M & I couldn’t resist. Simple as that!
I also bought a new jar of Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation. I adore this foundation & it will be perfect for wearing on hot evenings on holiday.
I had no time to snap a picture of my outfit but it basically consisted of a maxi skirt (what else?) & lots of accessories. Love my cuff? I will have one for sale on my Etsy Store soon plus lots more boho additions – woo hoo!
I hope you are all having a wonderful day. I am finally getting a chance to relax & listen to my Queens of the Stone Age album – bliss!

Little Gypsy
Lace Crop Top; H&M, Ethnic Print Gypsy Skirt; TK Maxx
Jewellery; Vintage
Aloha! I have been super busy & a cute maxi skirt was the order of the day. I bought this beautiful Ethnic print maxi skirt at the weekend for the bargain price of £7.99.
I teamed my skirt with a lovely lace top from H&M. I think the combination worked really well & this is actually the very first time I have worn this top.
I have been so busy, starting to pack for Gran Canaria.
My lovely beach basket is neatly packed in & I have used my Aspiga Stripe Bag to store all my Bikini’s in!
This afternoon I changed into some shorts & laid out in the sun for a while. It was such a hot day today!
After all that I still had time to do another Mod Podge project. I decoupaged a glass bottle & ring – so pretty! The bottle will be perfect for placing flowers in.
Tomorrow I am going shopping. I need to pick up the last bits & pieces before our trip. I plan to get some Hawaiian Tropic Coconut After Sun to match my tanning oil.
I hope you have all had a lovely day!

I found this pretty little White Crochet Sheer Border Sun Dress on Newlook.com.It is so cute & perfect for hot Summer days!
Wear Flowers In Your Hair
Black Cape; ASOS, Skinny Jeans; Miss Selfridge
Bracelets; Topshop, Claires & Matalan
Aloha! Wow, it has been a busy day for me considering I haven’t been at work. I wore an all black outfit today & added splashes of turquoise with rings, bracelets & a cuff. I love this cape top which is from ASOS. It is quite the statement piece & looks fab dressed simply with hints of colour.
I finally got started on my Trinket Box Project.
It made me feel like a child again, I had so much fun! I am now in love with Mod Podge & I can’t wait to use it in future projects.
All finished! It took a while to create this lovely little box but I am so pleased with it. It will be perfect for storing all my rings & I may even make another to sell on Etsy.
This little beauty is the basket I bought yesterday in TK Maxx for £6.99. A total bargain, don’t you think? It is perfect for taking to Gran Canaria & Tenerife with me. I can now check ‘Find a Beach Bag’ off my list!
Here is a sneaky peek of the beautiful Ethnic Skirt I also bought yesterday. Also from TK Maxx it was £7.99 & the print is perfecto!
I also picked up some Giazzuro Vanilla & Coconut Foot Cream – a little treat for my feet!
Finally, I bought some Flower Crowns. A simple Daisy one & a larger one! They make me feel like a fairy/gypsy/hippy….you get the picture. I love them & I can’t wait to start wearing them on holiday. I may even skip along the beaches…no, I am not kidding!
I hope you are all having a wonderful day!

This cute silver & tuquoise bracelet from H&M is so pretty. It would be the perfect addition to my jewellery collection!
I Should Have Been An Island Girl
Aloha! Sorry I didn’t post yesterday, they closed one of the roads off when I was on my way home & I had to drive back to my Fiance’s house & get directions! This meant, by the time I got home it was late & I was tired. I now have time to catch up on my outfits this weekend.
I wore this cute dress on Saturday. We did a little shopping & I didn’t actually buy anything, at all!
Today we had a trip to the Retail Park to make some amendments to our holiday to Tenerife. I managed to find the perfect beach bag in TK Maxx. It is more of a basket & it is so colourful & pretty. It was only £6.99 which is fab! I also picked up another maxi skirt (eek!) in my defense it was only £7.99 which is a really good price. My final purchase was some Vanilla & Coconut Foot Creme – smells so yummy. I have 2 weeks off work & so I am spending all next week finishing projects & preparing for my trip to Gran Canaria with my Parents – exciting!
Here is todays little outfit.
I wore a beautiful Art Deco inspired Kimono which I received as a present from my Fiance Mum. I adore Kimono’s & this one is so pretty & I love the Art Deco period.
I had a quick look at some Wedding brochures today, I really want to get married in Maui, Hawaii. I should have been an Island girl!
I hope you have all enjoyed your weekend!

We’ve Got To Hold On To What We’ve Got
Aloha! I hope you sang the title of this post! I went to see Bon Jovi last night in Sunderland & they were fantastic! The stage was amazing & they put on a really good show. I got some really great pictures that I will post on Monday.
Jon Bon Jovi really knew how to get the crowd going & it was a wonderful night.
I managed to do a tiny bit of shopping (of course!) & picked up a Maxi Dress in Primark. It is Tie Dye & will be perfect for wearing on the beach. I am off to Gran Canaria in 2 weeks & then I am going to Tenerife in August.
It just needs a little adjusting because it is a little long for me, damn being 5’2!
This is the outfit I wore to travel home in. Another maxi dress ensemble pulled in at the waist with a belt. I completed my look with a statement necklace, this adds a little interest to an otherwise plain outfit.
This was today’s breakfast! Not very healthy, I know, but it was just a quick breakfast before we have to dash for the train. I had to make it home in time to get to work. Thankfully I am off for a whole 2 weeks – woo hoo!
I hope you have all had a lovely week. I have a few projects to finish next week & also I need to start packing for my holiday!

Bon Jovi
Aloha! I am preparing to travel to Sunderland to watch Bon Jovi live tonight!! I just have time to quickly show you this beautiful ring I am wearing. It is so pretty, it kinda reminds me of space or the night sky.
I hope you all have a lovely day. I will post again tomorrow & let you know how the gig was!
