Sorry for the lack of posts over the past few days, I have been so busy trying to get various projects finished before I leave for holiday, I just haven’t had the time! We are off to Florida tomorrow for 2 weeks to do Disneyland & all the big parks. I am unbelievably excited, I can’t wait to do all the massive rides, see the animals, watch the shows & generally get to be a huge kid again! We are also booked in to do Discovery Cove & Aquatica, I think these are the ones I’m most excited for, huge reefs to snorkel in, tropical aviary’s, lazy rivers & swimming with a dolphin!

Of course I will be taking lots of pictures to share once I get back, but I doubt I will be updating the blog until I’m home. I haven’t set any scheduled posts, I’m not a huge fan of them & they feel a little fake to me, but if I do have any days off, I may post a few snapshots of what I’ve been doing! Proper posting will resume once I’m home on the 12th August, but until then I’ll mostly be using my Twitter & Instagram, so follow me there if you want to see what I’m upto!

Less than a day until we leave & I still haven’t actually packed anything! I did manage to get in a little last minute shopping though…

My number 1 priority was to get some comfortable flat shoes, as we are going to be walking around almost all day for the whole 2 weeks, I couldn’t bare the though of having uncomfortable shoes. I have really wide feet, so sandals usually cause me no end of grief with their straps cutting into my feet leaving them bloodied & blistered, so I was extremely glad to come across both of these pairs that were such a perfect fit!

I usually go a little crazy buying bikinis & sunglasses before a holiday, but this year I decided to get just the essentials & buy some more once I’m over there. I have a drawer stuffed full of tanks, tees, camis & shorts, so I made a point of not buying any of those things either, I couldn’t resist this pair from H&M though, perfect faded black wash, properly high waisted, great fit & £20, there’s no way I could say no to that!

Hope you all have a lovely few weeks, especially if you’re going somewhere nice & I’ll see you when I get back!

Overly Optimistic / NEW

I have a confession to make, I think the awful weather these past few weeks may have been my fault. Ever since I optimistically brought a haul of summer clothing & accessories about a week ago, it has done nothing but absolutely pour it down! Sorry about that. Hoping it will pick up this week so I can do some proper outfit posts.

The wedges are yet another EBay buy, last year when I tried them on in Topshop I wasn’t sure if I liked them, so left them. By the time I’d got home I realised I wanted, no, needed them. We’ve all done it, decided to go back & get them the next day only to find them gone & sold out online too. This only made me want them even more and I’ve been manically scouring eBay since after a pair. I finally got my hands on them just in time (or so I thought!) for summer. They are the perfect summer wedge, just minimal & chunky enough for my liking.

I’m obsessed with cateye sunglasses and these AJ Morgan ones from ASOS are perfect, especially for the price. I never buy expensive sunglasses as I always lose them or sit on them, I’m too much of a klutz to spend good money on something so easily broken. I love the exaggerated, pointed shape of these and don’t even get me started on how perfect the nude colour of these Mango denim shorts are…
