# Dont you just + finding Dupes

Morning poppits ... ♥

So after wondering round Lush the other day for an hour i ran out of time to do anymore shopping so off i went to meet the boy & go home, so i decided to cut through Next and boy am i glad i did ... i passed there perfume stand and decided to have a quick look as i have had the Next Diamond perfume before which is an exact dupe for Miss Dior Cherie.

♥
So after spraying and sniffing all the delights this little delight caught my nose :)

(this is described as an oriental frangrance with exotic flowers and warm musk)

♥

After spraying & sniffing ... And spraying &a sniffing again i realised it reminded me of something ... then it came to be its exactly the same as Emporio Armani She Eau (the gold tube)

♥

So the average price for a 30ml bottle of Armani is around £25 ... this little baby is £6 for 25ml or £10 for 100ml ... cant complain really can you!

♥

So the next perfume Diamond is a dupe for Dior Miss Cherie

This is a dupe for Emporio Armani She

♥

♥

Its got me thinking what other dupe's Next have got on their shelves for ridicously low prices :) Have you found any good dupe's you'd like to share?

Thanks for reading lovelies!

It was EXTREMELY hot today and i usually sort my clothes out the night before i wish i would of gone for tailored shorts but oh well ... white linen trousers, beige vest top, skinny brown studded belt, brown studded gladiators, two chunky monkey bangles & some jingly jangly earrings! I quite like this outfit!

Day 19 Friday

Dress Down at the Office : ♥

I LOVE this T-shirt ... my vintage esqu Turtles tee :) ive got a tin brother who's bigger than me so he always got to control the TV and we ended up watching this alot growing up :) Ive tried naming them all but can only remember Donatello being the purple one .. but thats because on the tee you can see his belt with a D on it lol! I also wore white pumps :)

Day 20 Saturday

Shopping with the boy : ♥

So i decided on two pictures as i was wearing alot of jewellery & it was easier to show it like this ... 3 large chunky bangles, my owl necklace, jingly earrings & a brown waist belt. So it wasnt that sunny today, seemed very over cast so i decided on dark blue jeggings, a white sleeveless shirt & my gladiator brown studded sandles.

Day 21 Sunday

England V's Germany BBQ : ♥

So i know England was playing Germany today but i didnt want to wear my England esque top i decided on my playsuit with brown skinny studded belt, brown & white beads, brown beaded jangly earrings & 1 large bangle ... oh & my gladiator studded sandles :) oh and some oversized sunnies :)

So thats the end of week 3 ... YEY .. my favourite outfit this week has got to be Saturdays .. i totally forgot i even had this shirt ... yippeee

$ Like Peas in a Pod >

Hello Dolly's ... ♥

So about a week ago i won my very first twitter competion ... *stupidly big grin*

Im not sure if your following Eclectic Eccentricity ... but you should .. there an online jewellery store and they sell all vintage style peices which are sooo cute, there also very reasonably priced ... ranging between £5-£15 for the bigger pendants! Ive picked my favourites out already and shown them the boy on multiple occasions hoping he'll take the hint ... ive even changed my laptop background lol!

So onto my prize :)
♥

The first thing i noticed was how cute the packaging was ... nothing was left out here ... two little cards explaining a little about the company then a little pink box with gold writing of the company name .

♥

Its called ... Like Peas in a Pod ... HOW CUTE!

They've even got little tags on the back of the chain with EE on ... they've not scrimped on anything ...

♥

Im sooo pleased with this ... it will be a perfect addition to my growing collection of pendants!

+ Lush Loving +

Hey Lovies ... ♥

So i thought i'd have a wonder around town yesterday after work and wait for the boy who finishes an hour later than me, so as i was heading over to River Island i caught a good old wiff of Lush and was drawn in.

An hour later i emerged with my newly required Lush Goodies :) Heading home with a Lush bag is a successful trip for me :)

♥

(lovely jubbely lush goodies)

So the goodies i picked up :

♥

Dorothy Bubble Bar : £2.80

There was 2 things that drew me to this .. the name Dorothy and the rainbow :) its such a cute product and cant wait to have a bath

♥

Butterball Bath Bomb : £2.25

This has to be my all time favourite product from Lush , i especially love it at christmas when it becomes Mr Butterball and is a cute little snowman ... it makes your skin so soft :)

♥

Waving Not Drowing : £2.30

I actually bought this for the boy as he's a secret Lush fan and its got Lavendar in it and he says it helps him sleep ... awww so cute!

♥

Think Pink Bath Bomb : £2.30

Pink, Flowers & Glitter ... need anymore reasons to why i picked this up .. cant wait to use it! :)

And finally i picked up this -

kinda like a last resort for the ezcema on my legs, So this was £9.85 for a very BIG tub so i can see this lasting quite a long time, just fingers crossed it helps my ezcema, im going to use it twice a day and see if there's any difference!

Have you used the dream cream? good results?

And finally whats your favourite Lush product as i love trying new bits & pieces!

= Football Frenzie Nailies $

Hello my little Football hooligans ... ♥

Unless youve been hidden underneath a rock you'd know England finally won a game in the world cup and are now in the next round :) YIPPPEEEEE We face Germany on Sunday so will have to wait and see & hope England play FAB :)
♥
So i decided to get into this Football Hype and paint my nails ... so this is what i came up with

♥

So i used my Barry M Freebie from the Fabulous Magazine in Red and on my ring finger on both hands i did the St Georges Flag ... the flag looks from a distance & if you squint your eyes looks good but close up it looks horrendous but oh well first attempt isnt that bad i guess :)

♥

Im really liking this looksie ... i think it looks cute & just enough football for my liking! I did this last night and had so many compliments today at work ... hey even the boys noticed it :)

♥

Have you got into the Football Frenzie yet? Especially now England are in the Quarter Finals .... woooo :)

Was you one of the crazed women running round hunting all 3 down? or did you just choose 1 or 2?

30 Day Clothes Challenge %

Hellooooooooo ... ♥

So whilst sorting out my wardrobe and hiding away all my winter woolies i realised i had alot more clothes than i thought, i havent got tons & tons of clothes like some people but to me its quite alot. So i then looked at the clothes i wear and realised im always wearing the same stuff so ive decided to come with the

* 30 day Clothes Challenge *

Its to wear a different outfit every day for 30 days, it can include mixing and matching but not the same outfit twice. So im going to do a post every Sunday (today) with a picture of the outfits ive worn that week.

I got the idea for this from the wonderful Katie who's bf challenged her to wear a different outfit every day for a whole YEAR and she did a blog called http://www.whatkatiewore.com/ and i loved following her blog for the year it was so good seeing how creative she got.

So onto my challenge ...

Day 1 Monday

Day at the office : ♥ 

  Black Calf length Pants, a White Vest top, plain black cardi, some silver & black lacy pumps ... i then wore my bike necklace & some little pearl earring.

Day 2 Tuesday

Another day at the office : ♥

Black Shorts, a fitted black v neck top, a skinny brown studded belt to break the black up, some pewter coloured pumps ... i then wore my gold anchor necklace & anchor vintage style earrings.

Day 3 Wednesday

My day off : ♥

So i decided i was going to spend the day in slobbing, catching up on youtube, blogs and a general lazy day so i opted for some grey jersey bottoms & a black vest top and my tinkerbell slippers :)

Day 4 Thursday

Back at the office : ♥

Black pants, a black scoop neck T and black dolly shoes (forgot to take a pic)

Day  5 Friday

Holiday from work  : ♥

So this is more my OOTN as in the day i stayed in my PJ's catching up on blogs and YT vid's and tidying the house ... so Friday night we went off to a bar that has alot of live indie bands so it was a VERY casual affair ... Jeggings, my Paris T and denim shirt to keep my shoulders warm, oh & white pumps

Day 6 Saturday

Sunny Saturday & first England World cup Match : ♥

So today i was invited to an England themed BBQ, obviously because of the world cup match, so i had to buy an England esque top as i wasnt paying £40 for an offical one so off to Newlook i tottered! Also a lil england flag style bow in my hair! Denim Shorts, England Tee, White pumps & my bow!

Day 7 Sunday

Lazy hungover Sunday : ♥

So today was a lazy Sunday... i didnt even get dressed i was soo hung over :( ive not had a lazy sunday like today in AGES! So PJ's & bed socks!

So 7 days down ... 23 to go! I think i may struggle with the stuff to wear in the week for work but im going to do it :)

I think YOU should do the 30 day challenge too ... show some love to the clothes hidden in the back of your wardrobe!

+ My Sky Blues #

Helloooooo pixie's ...

 ♥

So i bought this about a week ago in Boots 3for2 ... its called Pure Turquoise but its more of a sky blue ... or at least i think it is. but i LOVE LOVE LOVE this polish,i think i say that about all Barry M polishes but i really do!

♥

Like all Barry M polishes it last for a while before it starts to chip & i think there the best drugstore brand out there for nail polish by far ...no on else can beat there colour range & longevity :)

♥

♥

How pretty is this lil beauty ? I applied two thin coats to get the desired full coverage, but if you applied one normal coat i guess that would probably cover perfectly fine! 

♥

♥

I cant wait to try the other colours i picked up ... Mint Green & Racing Green, im going to start my Barry M polish collection ... ive got 5 now and i want ALL of them hee hee ... greedy i know but the bottles look so cute lined up on my shelf too, all candy colours :)

♥

Im still to pick any colours up yet from there Ice cream collection :( booo! whats your favourite colour in that collection? Any recommendations?
