Another crazy day in the office but you lucky people don’t get to see that!
Wednesday weigh-in with another 1/2 lb gone and tonight I was asked to be a helper in the evening which is pretty cool!
A short and sweet one again tonight as I’m exhausted and need to wrap this up quick so I can get some shut eye!
An excuse to feel like a kid, wearing a onesie and able to walk the streets whilst being on trend! What more does a girl want?
Oh yes, the inability to quickly go to the loo when your really desperate! Classy!
But however impossible playsuits are in everyday life they do look cute in the summer.
Hopefully with my weight loss continuing to be a success I may even purchase one this year. Just the difficult decision of what one to buy… any suggestions? The Top Shop Mono or the Miss Selfridge Frill? If you spot any others leave a comment and I’ll be sure to take look.

It’s a Tuesday. It’s been a crazy day! So why not introduce you to my make-up / beauty cabinet.
Drawer by drawer – everyday make-up and brushes. Eye-shadows and eye-liners. Nail polishes of every shade under the sun. Hair bands and hair accessories. Perfumes. Sun tan lotion and fake tan.
It’s a bit of a lengthy one and there’ll be more vlogs on each drawer coming up soon.
Being Ikea the cabinet is still available – Helmer Drawer Unit – http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/00107874/
These still freak me out slightly as they do remind me of stick-on false nails that ping off suddenly when ever you get near anything.
However, they do seem to have advanced somewhat dependant on what brand you pick up, and work on the toes too… not sure I’ll be trying that one just yet.
There are certainly a lot of styles, patterns, colours around including design your own which looks pretty awesome!
I bought some wraps at the tail end of the summer and I’ve still not tried them out. In the coming weeks I will try them out and report back. I’ll set the timer on them so I can keeps tabs on their ‘ping-off’ rate!

Don’t you just love the British weather! Nope?! Can’t imagine why not…
Thank crumbs for the knee high leather boots and rain mac I keep nice and dry. Fully protected from the numpties that decide to create a wave by driving through the puddles.
Blog posts all sorted now. If you like the look of my personal planner you can get one here.
It’s that time again!
Pastels are back for 2013 as they are every Spring it seems of late.
Soft pinks, mint greens, baby blues and light peach. So hopefully you’ve still got 2012′s wardrobe stored safely away!
I’m a sucker for pastels and have been since school days which was a fair few years back! So I’m sorted with this trend! But I am liking the Pink Mulberry Bayswater bag and the Miu Miu mini dress … eek! Sorry Mr Bank Manager but I couldn’t help myself…

Short and sweet one today peeps!
Spent a lot of the day hovering, tidying and rearranging the living room.
So didn’t leave much time for vlogging! Boo!
How’s everyone elses weekend been?
Lace is everywhere this season. Literally everywhere!
I love the cute lace detail on dresses but I’m really not sure of full-on lace trousers. They just remind me of my white leggings with lace hemming from when I was nine – and yes, I’m talking the 90s!
My fav item from this little lot has to be Almari’s lace panel gathered dress! I just need to find an excuse or event to where something like this.
What do you think of the lace trousers? Hell yeah? Or hell no?

Great 9.5 mile walk today, earning 8 points!
Knole was so busy, think I’ll stick to Sunday walks in the peace and quiet.
Treated myself to some yoghurt from The Collective Dairy – although shocked by the 6 points value of them!
Slow cooked veg stew for din dins – scrummy!
If you’re starting to clear out your winter wardrobe there’s a must for your spring purchases.
It’s the nautical theme.
Remember the key elements – keep to horizontal stripes. Blue and white stripes are a must. Thick or thin stripes – that doesn’t seem to matter. There’s a whole host of variations and you’ll find them in pretty much all stores.
You don’t have to own a boat or a yacht to get away with wearing stripes this season!

Happy Burns Night to you all!
Now Haggis, it may not be to everyone’s taste but I love the spiciness of it.
This year was far from traditional – no neeps and tatties for me!
It’s all about the zero points Stir fry veg – scrummy!
