Today.

I have had THE best day. and I want it documented. forever.

1. I had a really good dissertation meeting and he said some really nice (and exciting) things about my work, which is always nice to hear.
2. I met Rosi and my God mum and we had a good catch up whilst looking round a few galleries
3. I had dinner and a rather long catch up with Theana and Harriet (homemade gyros, delicious) 
4. I helped some really funny and friendly strangers (both to myself and my city) find a club they'd spent a lot on tickets for but couldn't find/ 
5. came home to BEAUTIFUL flowers (all my favourites) from my incredddddible boyfriend, all the way from Afghanistan. No I'm kidding, it was from a shop up the road. But he ordered them from Afghan, haha. Just for our anniversary. What a keeper. 
6. I also had a letter from my great nana which was lovely to receive :)

I have no idea how I'm going to top it but that's okay - it'd been one of a kind :D

Denim Cover

Another item I nabbed in the clothes swap was this denim shirt that Harriet used as a jacket, I think I'm gona use it in the same way - I can see myself taking it to the beach for an extra layer when that evening breeze kicks in. It's big enough to wrap around you a bit so I think it'll look cute.. what do you reckon?

 

I like that it's light denim, I don't have anything light denim! 

Nails #11 Ombre

No, my hair is not going to be some bright shade of ginger and auburn.. I mean my nails! I had so much fun trying this technique out. I tried it once before by doing just the nail varnish on the make up sponge, but that was very very thin, so like a good student I research it some more and figured out that people do one colour first, so I chose the pink, and then still do both the colours on the make up sponge to make sure it blends nicely. 

 

Of course I got better as it as I went along, so I'd rather not show you my right hand, haha! But I am very glad I tried this colour combination, as I wasn't a fan of the orange just by itself, so now I don't need to throw it away! Hooray! and I will definitely be trying this out with more combinations, because I love looking down at my nails and seeing how pretty they are :D

Have you tried this? What technique do you use?
