Bedroom Interior Inspiration

I'm in the process of sorting through everything in my bedroom in preparation for redecorating it. I have collected so much stuff after university and it really needs doing. I get a great sense of satisfaction when I have sorted through stuff and got rid of loads.

I would love a room which has a white shabby chic feel to it. I really love looking at interior design photographs. Here are some of my favourites which are definitely going to be inspiration for when I design my new room.

No7 Nail Varnish Gift Set

Nail Varnish - No7 Damson Dream
Ring - Topshop

It was my birthday a few weeks ago and a good friend of mine bought me this set of nail varnishes by No7. They are slightly smaller than the ones you can buy individually but the colours are all gorgeous! I usually wear nude colours on my nails and wouldn't really choose to buy these colours myself but these colours do make a nice change, especially for winter and I really like them!

Damson Dream (currently wearing) – A purpley pinky colour which has a metallic shimmer to it

Vivid violet – Bright purple again with a metallic shimmer

Sing the blues - a gorgeous bright royal blue but has a metallic shimmer to it

Totally teal – the only non metallic varnish but a solid bright teal.

Hot to trot – A pale shimmery gold colour. It needs a couple of coats though.

They are all part of the Stay Perfect Collection so they last longer than average before chipping. I’ve had Damson Dream on for 3 days now and they have not really chipped at all.

I have an extensive nail varnish collection and have used many brands including Nails Inc, Barry M, Rimmel, Topshop and Models Own but I believe that No7 is one of my favourite brands to use, especially if I have a £5 off voucher making each nail varnish just £2!

Also, I put some things on Ebay the other day as I'm having a huge clearout. Please feel free to take a look here :)



Recent buys 01

 

It was nice to have a fairly lazy Sunday yesterday. I didn’t do much apart from find stock for my shop, plan some blog posts, watch The X Factor and eat left over birthday cake but I’ve managed to find some pretty cute jewellery to sell so I suppose it was quite productive.I’m hoping to spend the next few days designing and making some bracelets and necklaces to sell too so hopefully over the next few weeks, I will be ready to set up shop!

I thought today that I would share with you some of my recent purchases. I personally love reading what other people have bought as I like to live vicariously through others and find that these posts often give me inspiration (and a desire to go shopping immediately!). I might do a weekly or fortnightly post of things that I have bought as I do usually buy something each week so will always have something to share!

I saw these loafers a few weeks ago in New Look in York but they only had them in a 5 and so they were slightly tight so decided not to get them and look around for them elsewhere. But could I find them anywhere?! Me and my mum usually go shopping somewhere different each week so I was always looking but eventually I found them in my size and so quickly snapped them up.

I’ve wanted some loafers for a while now but didn’t want to spend loads on them in case I quickly went off them or decided they didn’t suit me anymore. These were only £14.99 so a complete bargain!

I am loving the colour RED at the moment. I already have this dress (from Topshop) in orange and claret but when I saw it in this gorgeous ruby red colour I had to have this one as well! I’ve been wearing skater style dresses and skirts a lot recently. I think they are really flattering for my shape and  so easy to dress up or down.

Another big trend I’m loving this season is velvet. I actually bought this dress from Topshop a few weeks ago but thought I’d still share it with you and I’ve seen quite a few bloggers posting about this dress too. Its made from a quality fabric and looks flattering on. The polka dots are subtle too which I like but it shimmers beautifully under the lights. It’s the perfect dress for Christmas and I will team it with ankle boots and black tights for a great Christmas party look!

What have you bought this week?



Welcome!

Hello, Bonjour, Hola, Hallo, Ciao! So I have finally decided to properly start a blog, after religiously reading some of the fabulous blogs out there at the moment, and feeling very inspired by them. I have thought a lot about what I want to include in this blog and after much planning, I have decided that to start something very fashion and clothes based (which are my greatest passion in life), but also other important areas of my life such travel and interiors.

I’m planning on putting a lot of thought, time and effort into my blog so I hope you enjoy reading it!
