Oh my daisies

So as I have been window shopping (and maybe shopping shopping (oops)) I noticed that for spring floral patterns are coming back in massively, which, lets admit, is no big surprise as they do every year. But a certain kind of flower kept popping up in almost every shop I went in - Primark, New Look, River Island, Dorothy Perkins, Topshop etc. DAISIESSSS!

This post really doesn't have any real purpose but I just thought I would share some of the purchases I made and also share some links to the other pieces I saw but didn't get.

I'll start with the purchases I made:


1. This dress was from New Look and was £14.99. Added with the accessories bought from River Island, some black tights and either Chelsea boots or dolly shoes, I think this would be a cute little outfit. Even cuter considering they were all bought with gift cards meaning no money of mine was sacrificed. Click here for the dress.

2/3/4/5. It really isn't that often that I even buy let alone wear jewellery, but I saw these simple rings and bracelet in River Island and thought: "ya know what, screw it." So yes I bought them. Even though they may never see the light of day, I think they would match perfectly with either the dress or the top. What's even better is that none of them came to more than £3. Click here for the bracelet. Click here for ring (No.3). Click here for rings (No.4). Click here for ring (No.5).

6. This T-shirt was £6 from Primark. I love it as it can look great with anything; a skirt, leggings, trousers, even thrown on top of a dress. A great cheap buy. I also just came across a post on Primark's website featuring their other daisy print products and them rambling on about daisy n stuff. (Click here).

Whilst I'm here I'll also throw in some more bits n bobs I found whilst out on the hunt:

Fresh 'do for a fresh year.

Hello readers/followers! Firstly I would just like to say thank you for reading this, especially considering that this is my first ever post on this blog.

Without further ado; another year has passed and another one has already braced itself upon us. This year I haven't set myself any New Year's resolutions except stay happy I guess! I'm sure I will think of more throughout the year even though it does kinda defeat the object. Better late than never!

After having the same hair hairstyle for nearly a year, I have decided that it may be time to finally have a change; from having a side fringe to having a middle parting! *gasp* I know it's not that much different, but it's something! Also I have been a bit naughty when it comes to my hair and I have let my split ends run wild, but this is all coming to an end tomorrow so do not fret.

I was mostly influenced to make the absolutely wild decision of getting a middle parting after scrolling through Pinterest and seeing pictures of the Olsen twins - they do own a good middle parting by giving it a messy texture for an effortless and bohemian look.


I will also be getting my long over-due highlights re-done. I think I will take a before and after shot just so you guys as well as myself can see the differences. Well, I'd better hope that I like it.
