So on this really miserable rainy day my mom, sister and niece came to visit me in Leicester. They bought me and Joe wonderful housewarming gifts. To start with, a glass picture frame with 'You had me at hello' etched into the glass. They also bought us a set of candle holders that are dip dyed in pastel paint! My mom also thoughtfully knitted us a cushion cover in navy blue wool with brown wooden buttons. After gifts and nattering we went into town to my favourite place to eat, Mrs Bridges Tearooms, a pretty cosy eaterie that make the best sandwiches and macaroons. I discovered today that my niece Molly has an incredible taste in desserts, she too loves macaroons, so much so that I ordered a cup of to share. After that we did a little bit of shopping. We're all a little Yankee candle mad so we spent an hour picking out individual burning tarts then I found a gorgeous tweed scarf, with weather like today it was hard not to buy it. I finally got around to purchasing a new purse, my Hello Kitty one just wasn't screaming out 'sophistication' anymore so I looked in Debenams and found that the Fiorelli floral purse I've been looking at forever had 20% off, so for a nifty £25 I got the purse of my dreams! I haven't really been doing outfit posts but I wore my sparkle and fade sleeveless pink shirt dress with a black H&M kimono over the top, I put it with black tights, a pair of black ankle boots and my pastel gold Aldo necklace.

Pre-holiday jitters.
I can't believe its nearly been a whole month since I've posted! Ahhh crikey. Well a lot has happened in these last few weeks, and i mean A LOT! Sadly our house got broken in to a couple weeks ago and it's shook us up but we are on the mend. The landlord has been nothing but lovely and helping out loads by up-ping the security of the house. Another thing is that my job as entropy's supervisor is coming to a bittersweet end. They are finally shutting up shop for good on the 19th of this month. I was devastated when i found out because it's been my second home for the past two years and safe to say my last Friday night shift behind the bar will be a teary one. So many good things are happening this year (and beyond) Going to university to study Fashion Buying is definitely one of them. Moving in with my boyfriend will be another but before all of that i will be going to Mexico for two weeks in just 7 days! It's just gonna be good!
Which brings me to this post. I am having a slight mare with this as I've been on holiday once in my life and looking back on the photographs i wish i wore better stuff. So I've been tactically buying things to mix and match when I'm holiday so that i don't need to buy or pack a ridiculous amount of clothes. So i thought id share with all you lovely people to get your thoughts on my holiday clobber!
