Everyone has different neccessary items in their bag but these are the things I cannot live without if there not in my bag. 
These are, My Purse, House and Car keys, Blackberry, I-Touch, Diary, USB, Pens, Lip balm, a Drink either water or Pespi Max and lastly my notebook (I just think its so pretty). 



Nonessentials





Style magazine, a pencil case (which holds lip liners, hair bobbles and any other random items), Nivea, red lipstick, Go-Head choc-cherry bar, receipts, bus ticket, an extra purse (I know I'm weird but I like dividing my money up separately sometimes, Dolce and Gabbana No 3 which sadly is discontinued :( and a Keaton Henson CD who I am addicted too at the moment!

What's in my bag: Dodi


I have to apologise for the quality of these photos, they were taken very quickly on my phone and only just realised how bad they look when seeing them on the computer!

The Bag

This bag is ideal for uni as its big enough to carry folders and all the other useless stuff I carry around with me on a daily basis and of course it nicely satisfies my rose gold obsession with the rose gold hardware!


Zara

What's in my bag: Michelle

The Bag


My bag is from River Island, I bought it as I thought it was a good size for going back to uni and I really loved colour and design of it.



Necessary Items





Purse, passport, glasses, bus pass, umbrella, notebook, diary, pen, handbooks.

 

Nonessentials





Magazine, Ipod, some makeup essentials, compact mirror, mini dry shampoo, makeup brushes, comb, invitation, empty pen and chewing gum packets, receipts and vouchers.

To be honest a lot of my unnecessary items have just been thrown in my bag in a rush just before I have left the house in the morning.

Hope you like this kind of post, there are a few more to come.

OOTD: Birthday Brunch




Hey everyone, sorry that this is the first OOTD post since we came back to uni but we all had quite a lot on last week and we are all doing different modules this year so we are not always together :(.

Anyway since we never really got a chance to celebrate Dodi's birthday properly, we decided to go out for a fancy brunch this morning and finally gave her her present. We will be going out on a night out next week also.

We decided to go to Cranachans in Princes Square, Glasgow which was gorgeous. The majority of us decided to go for the salmon and scrambled egg on toast and then finished off our brunch with a cheeky slice of cake, yum.

Looks of the evening #8

 
 
Hey guys, I was at a 21st the other night so I thought I would do a wee outfit of the evening post. This is the second time I have worn this dress and I love it. It is from Topshop and is a really thick material so it keeps you that little bit warmer in the autumn months. It is a really nice grey/cream colour so can be worn with a lot of different colours. I like to keep it simple by wearing black Accessories and a silver studded clutch. My heels are from Dune, they are oldies but goodies. Definitely one of my favourite pair of heels and are very flattering. I decided to just wear my hair in loose curls and kept my makeup quite simple.

Frizz free hair

 
 





Hey everyone, hope you are all well. Recently I have been hating my hair as it never sits the way I want it to and seems to get really frizzy. I was trying to live with it as I don't really like using products in my hair but after a while I knew that something had to be done.
 
I seen that the Frizz Ease range was on offer in Sainsbury's last week so I decided to bite the bullet and buy it. I got the shampoo and conditioner for curly hair which itself is great. I have naturally soft hair so I don't normally use conditioner. I only used a little bit at the bottom as I wanted to try it and it made my hair feel amazing.
 
I also bought the Frizz Ease hair serum which you put in wet hair. I'm not sure if it was the serum or just the shampoo and conditioner but I definitely noticed a major difference in my hair. There were almost zero flyways and my hair was really soft and felt light and bouncy.
 
I finally purchased the gloss spray which I used after I had styled my hair making my hair look very healthy and glossy especially on curly hair.
 
I would definitley reccomend these products if you have the same hair problems as myslef.

My Top 5 Necessities for Uni...

Hello everyone,
 
Well, summer is over and the sun has gone and its that time of year again.  Once again we are all starting back university and heading into the big, bad forth and final year.  So here is my top 5 list of necessities that you will find in my uni bag for the next year.
 
1.  Notebooks...
 
The reason I purchased these is because I loved the cover on the front.  It is so simple and beautiful.


2.  My Diary...
 
This is something I will most certainly use all the time to keep my life in line.
 

3. My Watch...
 
I love my Toy watch.  It is on my wrist all the time so I can make sure I make my classes on time (As my fellow bloggers know all too well!!).

 
4. My Coffee...
 
My coffee is a must have for me as it keeps me going through the hard reports that have to be done!

 
5. My Lip Balm...
 
My Vaseline is my new favourite to carry around.  As well as leaving your lips so soft it gives them a lovely pinky colour.
 

Any recommendations of anything else I may need to have with me would be great!!

Sweet 16



Good Morning everyone, It was my little sisters 16th birthday yesterday and I wanted to share the present me and Luca (Boyfriend) bought for her. I wanted to buy her something really special since it was a milestone birthday. We really couldn't decide what to buy and were walking about Glasgow for hours. We went into Swarovski and there were a couple of things that I really liked. We eventually settled on this beautiful bracelet in the purple. They also come in a few different colours but purple is Heather's (birthday girl) favourite colour and it was the prettiest.



As a little extra we got her the cute little bath bombs from a shop called Miss Bubbilicious in Glasgow. There are quite a lot of different handmade products to choose from including soap, bath salts and bath bombs. The bath bombs look like cakes which I thought was lovely and there are loads to choose from.

Statement Necklaces

So since coming back from Lagos I haven't had a chance to buy a new autumn/winter wardrobe because lets just say money doesn't grow on the trees.

While I was away I fell in love with statement necklaces because going away for 3 months with only 20kg you have to learn to accessorize because there was no way I could wear a different outfit everyday. I found that wearing a simple black top could be changed instantly with a beautiful necklace!

You will notice when my fellow bloggers and myself do Outfit of the Day I may be wearing the same top but jazzing it up with some of these necklaces...

 This necklace was from the market in Lagos

 Monsoon 

 New Look

 21st present from my Lagos friends

I will defiantly be purchases some more because I think if you get the outfit right a statement necklace always 
works.

Ciao x
