(OOTD) Liebster Award

Good Afternoon!

Feeling pants today so just a quick blog from me today. Just a little OOTD and a quick award.

So first for the OOTD...

Cardigan- New Look, £10 (with student discount)

Long Sleeved High Necked T-Shirt- Primark, £2

Flower and Striped Vest- New Look Sale, last summer

Kristen Jeans- Topshop, £20 in sale

FitFlop Boots

Spike Necklace- Topshop, £3.50 in sale

I am at work again today so had to keep the layering up!

So now for a quick little award / tag, whatever you want to call them really. Rosie nominated me for the Liebster Award.

Liebster is a German word meaning "dearest" and is given to bloggers with less than 200 followers. I think this is a really really nice idea for new-ish people on the blogging scene, like myself. I'm not sure if I have to nominate a certain amount of people so I'm just going to nominate as many as like! I realise Sam and Rosie have already received this, but I loves them so they can have it again :)

So I am going to nominate:

Sam 

Rosie 

Demi 

Jade 

Lauren

Hope you girlies share the love too!

So that's it from me today, might do a little review for you tomorrow, so until then :)

A crafty project, and another award!

Good Evening!

And it is pretty good for me! I got one of my assignments finished to day and my beautiful best friend Sam has bought me a months subscription to She Said Beauty, a beauty box company. I have not heard of this company before but I am excited to see what comes in the box. This one is £9 a month, £1 cheaper than most others, and is still £2.95 postage, so yes, I am intrigued.

So I have a little crafty project to share with you, I mentioned it a while back but I couldn't share it until I had given it to the person it was for, and now I have I can show you :)

One of my colleagues has just got married, and I was unsure what to get him, but as we work in a knitwear business I though this would be quite apt. 

This took me a couple of weeks working in bits and bats on it. I am really proud of it. The fact you can see all the stitching is on purpose, for some reason I really wanted it to hit home that it was home made.

But let me know what you think :)

And I am also proud to say that Beauty and the Mist nominated me for another award. This one is the One Lovely Blog Award and I am flattered. I would just like to say thank you so much. It means a lot, and I really appreciate being nominated, it's so great to know people like what you're doing. Personally, I think that these awards are an inspiration to keep going, so thanks again!

So there are a couple of rules:

1. Nominate 15 fellow bloggers.  

2. Share 7 random facts about yourself. 

 

So my random facts:

1. I love peppermint tea!

2. If I don't post an OOTD, it's likely I am in my trackies, I don't dress nice if I am not leaving the house.

3.(Relates to point 2) If I don't think I am leaving the house, then have to, I will go out in my trackies, with no make up on, I don't really care :)

4. I am obsessed with fish and chips!

5. I treat my pet rats like my children!

6. I have to have something over my ears to be able to sleep.

7. I get more excited for other people's birthdays than my own, but I adore Xmas more than anything!

So, because I love EVERYONE I nominated for the last award, it's going to be the same again from me :

1. Rosie Apple

2. Pi is Good but Pie is Better (Sam)

3. Izowo

4. Blog 101

5. The Ginger Diaries

6. SarahJane's Obsessions

7. Emily Wears Things

8. H0lliedays

Versatile Blogger Award

Good evening! Well, I say good, after all it is Friday the 13th, and I am aching all down one side, after starting the day (or very early morning) with a bang on the floor in a night club... smooth Lucy, very smooth!
