New Look :)

Hello Everyone! 

I know what your all thinking.. Where the hell have I been? If you've been following my blog for a while you will know that I am in my third year of uni! If you didn't know before you do now :) well anyway... How can I describe third year? Work work & more work. (Don't worry I have been going out too) But I haven't really brought anything new or been trying any new products.. BUT I went out this evening with my Mum for a cute little meal & I took a picture of what I was wearing so I thought I would blog about it...

Yes I did take the pictures on my phone instead of my Nikon. So I'm extremely sorry about the quality (and my odd socks! Do any of you wear odd socks or is it just me?) Anyway.. A few weeks ago when I popped into town with my friend she needed to take some stuff back to New Look. I've never really been a fan of New Look due to never finding things that I like in there, however, I found THIS top, for £9.99 which I thought was a complete bargain! Its so comfy and its just something you can wear for a casual look or if you wanted to dress it up a bit then you can wear it with disco pants and heels for a more comfy evening look.

When I was in New Look they also had some other nice items, however I had to resist.. But I might of brought a dress which Im completely in love with, so expect another outfit post quite soon. I teamed the top above with my urban outfitters disco pants. River Island cut out boots and my Zara bag for a casual evening look. :) 

What have you been up to? What clothes have you recently brought?

Valentines day gift ideas..:)

Hello everyone! :)

As we all know valentines day is creeping up on us. If your like me and you have a boyfriend and haven't got a clue what you are going to get him, then fear no more.... I thought I would share with you some of my gift ideas. 

I've been looking at quite a few of my favourite blogs and youtube channels to try and find some inspiration, however, I've been quite disappointed as they all seem to be gift ideas for girls, so I thought I would get on the Valentines day gift idea blog post bandwagon but do it for guys instead! 

Im not one to spend loads on Valentines day presents, I think the day is hyped up a bit too much to be honest, and being a student as well I can't afford to spend loads. So all the gift ideas below are all under £25 so if you are a student like me they should be in your price range :) 

1. Topman sweet design boxer shorts - £7 or 2 for £12

What boy doesn't need boxer shorts? With every type of underwear (except bras) whether its socks, boxers, knickers, you name it, they always seem to go missing, its like the washing machine eats them up! I thought these ones from Topman were quite quirky and I love the colours on them.

2.  River Island Kellogs breakfast to go pot - £6

I think this is such an amazing idea! If your boyfriend is anything like mine, he will get out of bed right at the last minute, has a quick shower, brushes teeth, does his hair, whacks on some clothes and VOILA.. He's out of the door. Craig rarely its any breakfast before work, and I think if he was to have these in his life it would entice him into having breakfast in the morning. I wouldn't mind these breakfast to go pots for my self!

3. River Island Black Suede Belt - £15

If your really stuck on what to get your boyfriend/husband/fiance I always find things like belts are my 'go to' presents if Im really stuck, whether its for my dad, boyfriend or brother. You can't go wrong with a nice belt. With this one being £15 I would say its a bit of a bargain. 

4. River Island Burgundy lightweight cable knit jumper - £25

I love the colour of this jumper. I always think burgundy colours suit people with brown hair. (Craig has brown hair) however, if your not a fan of burgundy then this jumper comes in different colours too. If you live in the UK you will know that the weather hasn't been at its best recently, saying that when is it during the winter months? This jumper would be perfect in order to keep your boyfriend nice and warm!

5. Brewery tour and tasting for two - £10

I saw this, and I had to double check that I read the price right. What guy doesn't love beer? My boyfriend and myself find things like this really interesting. I think this is such a nice idea if your one of those types of people who like being out and about doing different things. Its in Oxfordshire, so it may be too far for some people to travel, but if you don't live too far away then why not make a day of it? If your like me and Craig and can't spend Valentines day together because your working or something, this would be a good way to celebrate valentines day followed by a lovely meal nearby?

6. Ebay luxury leather flip iPhone 5 case - £6.95

I think the majority of iPhone users will know that they tend to get cracked screens very easily after being dropped. This has happened to me with 2 of my old iPhones.. (Yes I am clumsy) If your boyfriend has an iPhone then why not get him a case to protect it? He will thank you when he drops his phone and it doesn't break!

I hope this has given you all some inspiration! Have you got any plans for Valentines day? I would love to know! Also if you have any gift ideas leave them in the comments below!

Student recipe: Healthy soup!

Hello Everyone!

I've been a bit rubbish at blogging to say the least but I've been ridiculously busy with uni! I haven't been eating the right foods recently. Mostly quick and easy fast foods ect & now I feel its time that I should get myself back on track, & so I thought the perfect way to start this was by making a healthy vegetable soup using all my vegetables which look as though they are about to go off and I thought I would share the recipe with you guys :)

What I used: 

2 onions

6 carrots

6 mushrooms

1/2 a courgette

3 cloves of garlic

a whole broccoli.

2 chicken stock cubes

1 vegetable stock cube

Salt & pepper to season!

Step 1: 

Chop up your vegetables! It doesn't matter how neatly you cut them as your going to blend it all up anyway! 

Step 2: 

Put a frying pan on a medium heat. Add some olive oil, and then add the onions, mushrooms and garlic - fry until soft. 

Step 3:

Whilst the onions ect are cooking fill a large pan with water and bring it to the boil then add your carrots and broccoli and boil until soft. 

Step 4: 

When everything is all nice and soft add the stock cubes to the boiling water & then blend it either using a hand blender or a food processor and then season with salt & pepper!

Step 5: 

You should end up with something like this! Serve with a warm crusty roll or anything that takes your fancy! 

This soup is so easy to make and is so good for you as well! You don't have to use the exact vegetables that I used, I just cleared out all the vegetables in my fridge which makes it a good meal for students too as its cheap and you don't end up throwing a load of food out at the end of the week! What could be better, a cheap, healthy, quick, easy meal to have on a cold winters day! 

Give it a go and let me know what you think :)
