OOTD - A Day At The Carnival

Saturday was carnival day in my hometown of Kenilworth, and it's tradition in our family for us all to walk down and watch the procession (which I have to admit seems to be getting smaller with each passing year!) and then go for a wander around the fair afterwards. Despite the stormy weather the night before, it was a beautiful sunny day, so summer appropriate attire was very much needed, and today I thought I'd share with you what I wore.

Summer Nails

Yay the gorgeous weather has decided to make a return! Now that we really do seem to be getting our summer here in the UK, I've decided to ditch the pastels and neutrals, and go for a bit more of a pop of colour on my nails. Here are some of my favourite nail polish shades that I'll be sporting this summer.

My Favourite Bright Summer Lipsticks

Happy National Lipstick Day! I hope you've all been taking advantage of the Debenhams offer today - I know I have! One of my favourite makeup looks during the summer is to wear a very simple eye and team it with a bright lipstick. So, to celebrate this wonderful day (for beauty lovers anyway!), I thought I'd share with you my five favourite bright lipsticks to wear in the summer.

The Summer Tag

I've seen a few of these tag posts floating around on my bloglovin feed since Georgina originally created it. I thought, since it's the longest day of the year and the sun is shining, now would be a great time to do the tag for myself.

My Favourite Summer Bright Nail Polishes

Summer seems to finally be here, hurrah! The weather since I got back to the UK has been beautiful, so I thought it was time to dig out my favourite summer polishes and put them to good use. Here are my top five bright polishes from my collection.

Holiday Fashion Haul

I can't believe in two and a half weeks I'll be in sunny Cyprus - it still doesn't feel like I'm going on holiday! I thought this haul was going to be a lot bigger than it was but, looking through my wardrobe recently, I realised I already had a lot of stuff I could take away with me on holiday. As last summer I was in the process of losing weight in preparation for this years' holiday, I picked up a lot of things in the sales last year in a size 10 with this year in mind. So, when it came to holiday shopping this year, it was only really bikinis and flip flops I was in need of. But, of course, I did pick up a few extra items along the way.
