Face of Flix 2013 contest

A little while back, someone suggested I enter a contest at my hairdressers who were looking for a new 'face' to front campaigns etc. I thought it would be a laugh, so I entered, not thinking that I'd come anywhere. Well, I was wrong! I came third!!!!!!!!





The prize included £100 hair service and beauty treatment, some Flix products, and a gorgeous rose. 


I'll be reviewing these in a future post

My beautiful rose!



I just want to say a BIG thank you to Flix for my prize I'm really chuffed with it!



Thought I'd sneak an OOTD in while I was at it :) I haven't worn these shorts in a while, due to our horrible summers of late, and the fact that I've been living in denim shorts for a while. But they've started to grow on me again. They're so comfy, so I can easily wear them around the house, and then go straight out without having to change. I like comfy fashion ;)

My Recent Haul

Miss Selfridge Petites Maxi Skirt £18 (in the sale)
So over the past month I've treated myself a little. My mum does the standard "do you really need that" look whenever I've told her I've been shopping. Again. But this time, I really do need the stuff (honest!). So here, my lovelies, is what I've bought over the last month.

Girly holiday in Bournemouth (last day), and holiday news

And so came around our last day of our holiday *sob*. It went by so quickly, so clearly we had been enjoying ourselves a lot! We decided to stay in Bournemouth for this day, exploring the town and beach one last time. We did a little bit of retail therapy, especially in Miss Selfridge! I'll be showing what I bought there in my next post, which I think will have to be after I come back from holiday next week. This is my other piece of news, as I will be living it up in Tenerife for a week! I'm super excited, even if it is my second holiday of the year. I'll be taking plenty of photos and will be sharing my adventures with you all when I get back on 16th :) but anyway, onto outfits!

Girly holiday in Bournemouth, day 3!

On our third day of our girl adventure holiday we again ventured out of Bournemouth to Swanage and Corfe Castle. Now, for any of you who have never been to Swanage or Corfe, please excuse how excited I am about to get, as they are among some of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. Seriously, I want to live there! They are hybrids of little old-fashioned model towns and Midsummer Murders villages. I cannot recommend it enough, especially if you are after some serious Britishness! Think convenience stores selling homemade preserves, people walking their goats down the high street and their normal train being an old fashioned steam train! 
The colours were also what amazed me- I expected to see this kind of blue sea in the Mediterranean, not Swanage!  
With the girlies 
We took the steam train to Corfe Castle where we had traditional afternoon tea in a little tea rooms in the town. 

That scone was almost as big as me! ;)
All of the calories from this gave us the energy to explore Corfe Castle itself; let's just say we all felt like princesses, especially Emma! It was a dream come true for her! We also ended up going crazy dressing up in traditional costume, much to the amusement of the other visitors ;)


Here are our outfits!

Converse Double Tongue Sneakers

Zoe sports a cute small print dress and adds a casual twist with her trusty Converse sneakers. She uses her denim shirt as an alternative coverup to keep out the breezy winds. 


Emma goes all princessy with a gorgeous floral strapless dress layering with a vest underneath to add interest. I also did her halo braid, which I will be doing a tutorial post on soon. 


Katie goes for a practical light playsuit, kept casual with her Converses and accessories. Plus I love her Ray Bans...I think that'll be the next thing I save up for!


H&M Sunglasses
*My mum's top*
Topshop Orange Shorts
*H&M Cardigan*
Converse All Star Sneakers
Aldo Rucksack

Seeing as we were travelling on a boat that day, I decided to go a bit nautical with my clothes with a Breton top. I added some colour with my orange high waisted shorts. Usually I'm not keen on horizontal stripes on my top half as they make me look quite big, due to me being short and curvy, but as this top is slightly baggy, I can get away with wearing it! Also, the wide neckline takes attention away from any bits that don't look right. 



Later in the evening, we decided to get dressed up to go out for our final dinner of the holiday at Prezzo. Here's what we wore (sorry for the indoor shots, it was raining outside)!


I love this waterfall dress, its such a simple colour but it can be dressed up with heels etc. It reminds of traditional Grecian dresses, especially once I added the woven belt. I also added gold accessories to really bring out my tan that I had eagerly required over the holiday ;)

New Look Waterfall Dress
New Look Strappy Heels
Topshop Necklace (Gold)
Vintage Handbag
*River Island Coverup*

Emma goes prim in navy blue and monochrome, while adding a a flash of bright colour with her nails and lippie.

Boohoo Playsuit

Zoë glams up her playsuit with cream heels, and defines her waist with a cream belt to add some definition. This is a great evening look that can convert a daytime piece to an evening piece!


Katie lets her beautiful embroidered top do the talking by teaming it with skinny jeans and a black vest. Love her hair too!

My gorgeous BFF's!

What do you think of Swanage and Corfe Castle? Where's the most beautiful place you've been on holiday?
