A Long way from Home....

Hey Hey Huns,

This week has been a one to remember!! What was suppose to be a good weekend turned into the worst! Well not not the whole weekend. I went to stay with a friend up in Basingstoke from friday and believe it or not im going home today because we all caught the worst tummy bug ever!! so I had outfits planned to take pictures and blog but due to my unwell-ness that went down the drain so I have a few pics that I took before I was taken over. Im still not 100% but on the road to recovry so im up early so I can get home quick just incase of the worst...

FRIDAY...

SATURDAY NIGHT...

 

TUESDAY...

 

So the 2 days was the Virus period  = ( 

Excuse the look on my face with Tuesdays pics not the best feeling. Thought the fresh air might do some good boy how wrong was I, but I had to get up and move about or else I wouldnt be getting better any time soon. So tuesday's look is nothing special at all just a find something put it on and go! I tell you with being sick and the great company this is a weekend that won't be forgotten!!

Colour Tights...

Hey Hey Huns,

So today I had to be up and out early as I had a few errands to do and went to go and visit my mum afterwards. Rather a chilled back day to be honest. Nothing fancy however I have stepped out of my comfort zone and purchased and have worn my 1st pair of Coloured Tights!! Shocking I know, coloured tights virgin but not anymore! Feels quite good to have coloured legs with contrasting coloured clothing! Well I had fun with my styling today lol, again a simple look for a simple day...

Shades of Grey...

Hey Hey Huns,

So after today’s DIY, I thought why not wear it to a Sunday family dinner!! Not the best decision after eating food (food baby) but I actually love the dress! My new LOVE of today and maybe even winter with thick tights and layering!!...

D.I.Y Waterfall Dress...

Hey Hey huns,

Was going through my wardrobe the other day and came across a long grey maxi dress that i had bought from ASOS aaaaaaages ago. I was meaning to alter it as it was way to long for me but never got the chance to actually do it. So anyway I pulled it out the other day and thought hey, I’m going to make a waterfall dress (You know the style that’s short in the front long at the back kind of thing) if it goes wrong I’m not going to miss it because the dress has been there like forever and if it goes right that’s an extra bonus for me. So I got the scissors, Chalk and tape measure and got to cutting...

Maxi Dress at Original...

I tried the dress on to get my measurements. Using the measuring tape I held it from underneath the arm of the dress and measured it to my foot which came up to about 47.5 Inches (I’m a shortie, this I know lol) As I want the dress to be a water fall style dress so I also measured from the bust of the dress to about my knee which came up to 30 Inches. Taking the dress off I remembered where I measured from and how much and marked it off with some chalk...

I also maked an extra inch under the length this is seam allowance for when im stitching...

Once lines are complete, ready to cut!!...

Measured from the bust to about my knee, mark off with chalk...

 

With marking the final Length, I then free hand drew an arch shape(If your not confident with free hand then make a arch pattern with paper) Again I added on an extra inch of seam allowance for stitching...

Remembering its only the front that is arched lift up the front part of the dress and start to cut the arch shape! Be very careful not to pick up any of the back...

once everything is cut out, it's time to start sewing! (If your not confident sewing the seam allowance fold then iron the line of the seam allowance so you know where to fold up to when stitching. Use a tape measure to make sure that the fold is the tip of the tape for an even fold all the way around...

 (Im using an industrial sewing machine...Any machine will do!)

After sweing all the way round the dress give it a quick Iron...

 And the dress is completed...

Pure Gold...

Hey Hey Huns,

Just thought to post a quick something showing you my new LOVE of the week! BarryM's very own Gold Nail polish! I went to Westfield Stratford with a friend on Wednesday (very disappointed) and had a look around before we caught a movie. I have this thing about painting my nails now (used to hate painting my nails as every time they get painted not even an hour and they chip! AAAAAH!!!) So thought to buy some polish. I love BarryM for the colour and that’s when I came across the nail Effect Gold!! (Also available in Silver) As soon as I Got home Painted my nails straight away with excitement...

Being in a creative mood I also decided to use BarryM Black crackle effect on a finger, just for the fun and to add that unique-ness on my Pure Gold nails!
