Auf Wiedersehen, Australia.

On Thursday I went out for cocktails with my friend of 13 years, also called Rebecca. Who is lucky enough to be doing a year abroad in Australia, very very jealous of her. So we went off to have a final goodbye before she leaves next week and doesn't return until December!! I hope she has an amazing time and also hope that she doesn't get attacked by the possible possum which could be living in the attic of her new house-there have been sightings of it by the previous owners...

My Weekend

Last weekend consisted of two 4 hour drives for me, from my little home town on the west coast to Nairn in the highlands to visit my Grandad. For the first time ever I managed to actually fall asleep which was a bonus, although the drive usually is lovely, as it's quite scenic and its interesting to see all the mountains, which you don't get much of in Ayrshire.
On the way there we stopped off in Aviemore to have lunch and we found a cute little sweet shop which sold the most amazing chocolate ever


The fact that it was sparkly was pretty much what drove me to buy it, thankfully it tasted just as good as it looked

On the Sunday we went to the gorgeous Nairn beach, the weather was brilliant, however there was a slight wind, thank god for cardigans





Of course it would be totally ridiculous and blasphemous to go to the beach and not get ice-cream, I got Chocolate Chip and my mum got Scottish Tablet, both equally sweet and sickly.

Also whilst in the highlands we went to a cute little farm and bought some organic fruit and veg, I specifically bought strawberries to make frozen yoghurt strawberries

Sadly, when my boyfriend and I tried to make them they pretty much turned to shit, the Greek yoghurt we used was too thick and wouldn't go on them properly, they didn't look best appetising. Anyway, after freezing them I thought they tasted good, Thomas however thought they were pretty disgusting. So I think next time we try them we're gong to use runnier yoghurt.

So that was pretty much last weekend for me

Summer

So I ventured to Magaluf/Magalluf, Mallorca for a week with a group of friends. The whole experience was interesting, the madness that you see on TV definitely does translate in real life, it was quite surreal being there. Whilst the night-life was obviously incredible, being the bore I am, I really enjoyed the day time.
Also, one of the best fun things for me was obviously the summer clothes, I loved wearing bikinis for most of the day with cute cover ups, we lived at the beach, pool and one day the water park. Definitely fab time!
Anyway, here's some holiday, mainly, beach pictures

Most adorable frozen yoghurt place we found at the beach in Palma Nova, Llaollao. We went back 3 times and this is the healthiest toppings I got. Top recommendation would be the caramel sauce. 



Happy Summer

Sunday Funday

Hey!

The weather for the past couple of days has been pretty amazing, I believe that this may be because my grandparents are over from spain and have brought the weather with them. Anyway, the family and I went out for dinner tonight and this post is just to show what I was wearing

I don't really know what my inspiration fort his look was, maybe a little bit of 90's thrown in with Kylie Jenner and a hint of Kristen Stewart? Anyway, its pretty causal and comfy and I quite like it

Au revoir

On Friday night I went to a friends leaving party, who is going to France and then Germany!! 

I had nothing to wear for this, but thankfully one of my friends lent me their skirt and I managed to pair it with an old crop top I had and my classic heeled boots. Although, I somehow managed to get red lipstick down my top before I even got to the party, I am that clumsy...



Here's a picture which, I'm sorry is not very good quality as I had to take it quickly before I left on my phone. Next outfit will be taken with an actual camera!!

LBDs and ABBs

Hey
Today was the day of my higher exam results and I'm delighted to say that I got 3 A's and 2 B's this year. Genuinely can't believe it, so happy with them!!

So as a way of a congratulations, my mum and dad took me out for dinner, so I felt that it was appropriate to wear my classic LBD. But a slightly different version, as this one has a chain joining the collars which I love, and to make it a bit edgier, I put on black cut out boots + red nail polish and lipstick finished the look. So out I went, all lady like in my dress and ordered a burger and then a hot chocolate fudge cake dessert...oh well

Back to School Haul

In little under two weeks I'm going back to school...Oh. God. No. 
I don't think I'm going to be ready for the workload, the annoying teachers and the free periods. However, this year is going to be a bit of a bitter sweet year, as it's my last year at school. Which is sad and scary and exciting and confusing all at the same time. 

Anyway, I thought I'd piece together some things that are needed for school-clothes wise. Yes, plenty of people have said to me "school is not a fashion show" but I have promptly ignored them each time. If you want to wear nice clothes to school do it!  Here's a few of my must haves for braving school...





1. Jumper is from River Island, and is perfect for when the weather starts to get cooler. Also, is sometimes more flattering than a cardigan, if you get one that fits you well- get here

2. Bag is from H&M, I love this bag so so so much. I think it's so classic and plain, but also efortlessly chic at the same time. Must buy for school- get here

3. Pinafore is from Daisy Street, I think these pinafores are quite cute and add a girly touch on uniform, whilst this one is navy it does come in black as well, but due to such low numbers of it, I felt it was best to just include the navy one instead- get here

4. Shirt is from Topshop, you can't go wrong with a plain white shirt. Some schools-mine included-don't let you wear any other colour or pattern (by pattern I mean stripes, NOT Tommy Bahama print)- get here

5. Skirt is from New Look, I've ordered this skirt because I love the unusual shape of it and the zip detail. I am, however, slightly worried that it could be a little on the short side..I will report back later- get here

6. Trousers are from Forever 21, for me F21 is the home of preppy, so if you feel like channelling a bit of Blair Waldorf this year, I would definitely look there. These trousers have a timeless look about them and F21 are usually very good at their clothes maintaining colour and size- get here

7. Shoes are from New Look, again, these are my school shoes, I've just ordered them. Mainly I got them because New Look has an amazing selection of shoes which are sturdy. But also because they are plain enough to pair with anything and not look out of place- get here

8. Cardigan is from H&M, H&M is my trusted shop for school clothes, the stuff last. This may just seem like a very boring plain cardigan- which it sorta is- but it's a staple, you can pretty much throw this over anything and go. It is needed for school, I literally couldn't survive without mine-get here


Yes, I know they're all dark and dreary looking, but it's school clothes; you work with what you've got. So I guess all now you need to add now is a tie, tights and a blazer. I hope this is making you look forward to school a little bit more. Sadly, I love a good school clothes shop. Anyway, have fun getting school clothes and, also, a big good luck to my fellow Scottish pupils anxiously awaiting exam results tomorrow!
