Outift Month #28

*What I'm Wearing*

You may have noticed I pretty much live in my maternity leggings. I don't know what I'd have done without them... they are the ultimate in pregnancy comfort! I actually bought them at the same time as I bought this shirt and together they are practically pyjamas! This is by far my most comfortable outfit. I only wish the shirt didn't crease so terribly but then I guess it wouldn't be as lovely if it wasn't so cottony soft.

I'm also love love loving my new red bag... total bargain, just big enough for everything I need and still beautifully structured so it looks smart even when empty.

One thing I had to mention in todays post is this lovely package I received.

A lovely twitter follower, Charlotte (find her here) responded to my plea a few weeks ago for a coconutty perfume after I developed a small obsession for the scent. Many people came back to me with suggestions but the uber generous Charlotte offered me a spare bottle of her recommended Tahitian Holiday that she had but didn't think she'd use. By no means am I encouraging people to send me things but I had to give her a mention as it was a lovely gesture. She even sent a note... how sweet?

I really like the perfume, I am wearing it today and can report it's very long lasting as I have worn it all day and at 10pm as I type whch I never can usually so I'm really impressed. Thank you Charlotte!!!

Outfit Month #27

I had another H&M delivery yesterday... Yes it's a problem!

I had ordered this orange cardigan/shrug for the bargain price of £3.99 as well as this satchel. I'd been eyeing up the bag since I saw it a month or so ago and in that time it's been in and out of my basket too many times to count but what settled my purchase was seeing it on MakupSavvy's blog. Online I just couldn't tell how good the quality would be, Faux leather has the potential to be really terrible and although it was just £15 I didn't want to risk it. Once I saw it "in person" on her blog post however it had to be mine. You can buy it in brown too but I would say the red looks less like it's trying to be leather.. does that make sense? Another mention, last night I put on a top coat of glitter to my Models Own Beth's Blue nails. I used Coronation by OPI which I got in my Glossybox a couple of months ago. I must say OPI is expensive but I really love that glitter.. I have the trial size but I'm sorely tempted to buy the big one when I run out. It gives a really cool finish to my favourite blue polish.

It's getting more and more difficult to keep up the outfit posts as I near the end of the month, I feel like I'm repeating a lot. I just have 4 days left so I'm going to try and go out on a high. Bump-wise I'm getting really uncomfortable so I couldn't be happier to be finishing work this week too. I cannot wait to be sitting here tweeting you all and boring you with my blogs and vlogs. I'd love some new blog recommendations if you have any favourites, I'm going to have a lot of free time for a while so why not fill it with some new reads?

Makeup-wise there wasn't a lot going on  today. I walked to work so I just didn't feel like making as much effort knowing I would be huffing and puffing and probably all red by the time I got there.

Obviously I changed in to my 'jamas soon as I got home (hence the baggy tshirt)

 

Outfit Month #25 and Meet Spike

Another brief outfit post... weekends are for rest!

*What I'm Wearing*

Jeans - Next Maternity

Top - Primark

Now as promised today is Spike's day to be introduced to you all. Unfortunately he's not quite so much the poser as his brother so this is the best I could do...

Meet Spike

He is a totally different personality to Remy. He is independent and loyal. He thinks he's Nana (Peter Pan reference) and will not have fighting or arguing in the house. He's only content when everyone is home and at night he patrols at regular intervals to check they are all where they should be. Unlike Remy he would be lost without us, he is difficult to win over, you have to put in the time and even then he makes you work for it. Spike was my first dog and he will always be my favourite. I always felt like he was the pushed out older child when Remy came along so I never really bonded with Remy because I didn't want to leave Spike out. Some people treat their animals like pets and those people will think we are crazy but ours are family, celebrate birthdays and are very much loved.

*********************

On a complete tangent I am going to leave you with my song of the day.

I love this and never hear it, I have no idea where I first found it but I will never tire of it.

Outfit Month #24 and Meet Remy...

Not much in the way of outfit pictures today but I make up for it with others (read on)

*What I'm Wearing*

Maxi Dress - I just bought this from eBay for a bargainous £3 it is from Warehouse Definitions Collection and I know I will get tons of wear out of it, it's so comfy which is fab right now. Trouble is it's so thin you can see every lump and bump which is not so fab when I have an extreme belly button going on.

Name Necklace - Another eBay bargain

Nails - Models Own Beths Blue 

We went to my parents house today, that's normally a Sunday activity but we didn't have a lot going on. Because I've been working part-time in my last month at work and Lee has been off on Garden Leave we've had a lot of time during the week to do the stuff that's normally saved for the weekend so when Saturday comes we find ourselves at a bit of a loose end. Anywho.. We thought we'd have an extra Grandma visit this week. I took along my camera and got some pretty cute pictures of one of the (two) dogs I thought I would share.

Meet Remy

Remy is a Border/Lakeland Terrier Cross who loves to be the centre of attention and  is jealous by nature. He's very feminine as dogs go and should probably have been born a poodle or a lapdog. He would absolutely be carried around in a purse if you could find one big enough and he will no doubt be the one dressed as a baby and pushed around in Milo's pram when he arrives.

He will sit with anyone that will stroke him and can often be found courting prospective owners as back up in case he was ever to find himself without a home.

We've (my parents) had Remy since I was 15 (that makes him 10) and he's a fully fledged member of the family, he thinks he's people and will sleep in the bed, under the covers, head on the pillow if allowed to do so... which he sometimes is.

Tomorrow I will be back with some pictures of Spike, my first and favourite dog (shh! don't tell Remy) 

Who are your furry friends?

*Beauty Breakdown*

Everything is pretty much same 'ol same 'ol but for a couple of things..

Benefit Dallas on my cheeks.. I'm really feeling this for Autumn.

MAC Viva Glam V lipstick... still my fave everyday colour to avoid the washed out uber-pale look!

So many of you commented on my updated makeup room video that I'm so organised and neat... well... I'm not! To give you an idea of what my vanity looks like on a day to day basis here's a picture...

Told ya so! And for those who missed that video you can watch it below

And last of all.. a bump shot!



I even got some shots of Lee's outfit today (he's been a busy boy interviewing for new jobs) would any of you be interested in a boyfriend outfit of the day?
