Weekly Chat

Hey guys, this is going to be a weekly post letting you guys know about what I get up to, what are my plans and my views on the big, wonderful world out there. So here goes for week one!
-Partying- Last week I partied a lil bit harder than I usually would, but given that I'm still on holiday from uni that didn't matter too much except that I missed out on so much sleep! I had a big party last week for my friend who's leaving on Thursday to work in Brazil for a year! :( We organised a bbq in the afternoon and then after getting pretty tipsy we all staggered onto the train and into town to dance the night away. I love nights where you don't leave the dancefloor, awesome times!
-Autumn- Yes I know the sun may still be splitting the trees but we are inevitably being led into autumn by the fantastic A/W collections in stores right now. I have a few favourites picked out at the moment like this cosy looking cable knitted hoody from Zara (omg! Zara's online!) and this mustard coloured top with the pretty bow. I'm super excited about wearing my shorts and plaid shirts with ribbed tights cause they just scream cosy winter fashion. Another thing that I seem to be drawn to is Fairisle knitwear. If you're not sure what I mean I'll give you this as an example. I have been lusting over this Fairisle patterned cardigan for weeks now but £60 seems a lot, no?
-Skincare- Okay, so literally 5 minutes ago my Avon order came with my new skin regime in it and I am so excited to start it! Ever since I started using skincare products in my early teens I've sort of mixed and matched without ever using one range of products in harmony with each other. But it makes sense doesn't it? To use products that are specifically designed to work well together. Well this only actually occurred to me 2 weeks ago when my current moisturiser started running out and I began thinking about where to go next with my skincare. Firstly I noticed that the moisturiser I was using didn't have a sun protection factor which is so important in keeping your skin looking young and avoiding premature aging. It was then that I saw this month's Avon brochure sitting on the coffee table and while browsing through it I discovered that their Solutions Skincare products were all half price! So I bought the whole of the Solutions Complete Balance Skincare regime. I'll do a specialised post for this sometime soon.
Hope you liked my first major post! What have you guys been up to? Found any new or intersting products/fashion/blogs? Tell me because I love reading about new things! Have a question? Leave a comment and I will be sure to get back to you x x x
