TK Maxx costs less? YES!

Hellooo!
Today is just a brief post, I've extremely tired because I could not sleep at all last night :( and I'm hoping tomorrow will be a productive day (including a better blog post, hopefully!!) because I've got 1 week until 3 university deadlines and as always I've done no work for any of them..

After yesterdays post I carried on online shopping and being the massive TK Maxx fan that I am (I'm not doing this post as part of my job, I promise!), I decided to pick out some of my favourite bargains that are on their website at the moment!


I think the yellow Reiss dress, the Free People strapless dress and the SD Collection dress would be great holiday/summer weather dresses!
also I am completely besotted with the french connection playsuit, feel free to buy one for me! 

the converse are a MASSIVE bargain, I couldn't believe my eyes, and I think I've fallen in love with the House of Harlow gladiator sandals.

Enjoy!

p.s. I've also been doing a bit of TK Maxx shopping lately (even though I can afford to do any shopping) and I'll try and get some photos up of my purchases soon too! :)

buyers guilt.

Hey! :)
So, in my last post I was about to go to work before going to watch the new Twilight film. I have to admit, I was disappointed :(! The first half of the film was just over the top with constant special effects and not even good ones (there's only so many times you can watch some people running and jumping), the second half was better than the first half because they had a sneaky twist that I WAS NOT expecting!
Personally, I think they'd have been better doing the whole of Breaking Dawn as one film and following the plot of the book more.

Moving on...
This week I've had a bit of buyers guilt because I've realised I own 5 pairs of studded shoes - this would be more acceptable is 3 pairs of them weren't black!
To justify this a little bit I have to admit one of the black pairs are practically falling apart but I can not bare to throw them away and the other black pairs were an attempt to make myself throw the original studded pumps away BUT I JUST CAN'T DO IT!
and the glittery ones are totally unnecessary and impractical but beautiful :).
the ones on the top right are the old ones (its obvious so I don't know why I'm pointing out) and the bottom left ones were an attempt to replace them but they have more studs and just aren't the same.

(L-R starting on the top row) SCHUTZ bought from TK Maxx, Internacionale, Topshop (no longer on sale), Topshop (the new versions of the previous ones), Bershka.

Oh!  To add another thing to my last post about Uuniversity stress I went to my 2nd 9am lecture of the semester today (I have 2 a week) and it was pointless. Both of the ones I've actually dragged myself out of bed to attend I've learnt nothing in! HOW RIDICULOUS!
and to add to this annoyance I waited around in campus for an hour (which felt like 3 hours!) for another lecture which I have the same lecturer for 2 hours straight and she didn't turn up! (how rude!) and because I've had such a messy day I can't focus on Uni work tonight :(
So, I'm still lagging in motivation! HEEEEELP.

Any Advice?! What gets you motivated?

P.S. feedback and comments are welcome!
I'll always make sure I reply :)!

hard as nails.

This week I decided to relive childhood when I painted my nails and paint them multicoloured!
The blue is a bit chipped but not much considering I've taken this photo after work :). 
I didn't feel daring enough to go for bright in-your-face colours so I went for pastels and shades that I associated with sweets :).
So, my thumb and middle finger is done with some miniture bottles of nail varnish by Hoof Hands which I got in a set of 12 from TK Maxx for £7.99, the whole set are different colours and they're all quite bright. 
My first finger, ring finger and little finger are all done using nails inc. nail varnishes which again I got from TK Maxx but this time the set of 3 were £12.99 (all of these nail varnishes are still available online like on ebay :)). 
The nails inc. shades are: purple - lowndes square, blue - albert place and orange - wellington square. 

 I quite like them but I still feel a bit conscious that people are going to see them and think I'm stuck in the 90's or something and it's difficult to put together outfits that aren't going to completely clash. 
But painting my nails in these colours has definitely lifted my mood after I was a bit miserable about this cold weather! 

Why don't you try it? :)
