Weekend Catch-up, including Outfit of the Night and Outfit of the Day

So I've had a bit of a busy, but fun, weekend.  Friday night, I caught up with some friends.  We just went to some local bars and I got home at a reasonably respectable 1am.  Saying that, that's late for me!!!

This is the outfit I wore.

Zara Playsuit - £29.99

Primark Jacket - £17.00

Forever 21 shoes (old)

Primark Necklace - £3.00

Oasis Bag (old)

I am absolutely in love with this outfit.  The jacket is amazing.  I love the colours.  And the playsuit is gorgeous, just not very practical when you're out drinking your body weight in alcohol but I survived!  I think the last Vodka & Red Bull done me in so I was hanging on Saturday.  The only thing I added to this look was some false lashes before I went out.  I actually managed to put them on and they stayed on for once!!!  Nothing worse than half way through the night and you notice one of your lashes is hanging off!  They were only Primark ones as well so I was amazed how well they did.

So, as I said, Saturday I was hungover so I just sat in the garden and didn't do much at all.

Today, being Mother's Day, I spent it with my boys.  My mum popped round earlier and then we went to see my mother-in-law in the evening.  Followed it off with a lovely takeaway and am now relaxing with a glass of wine!

This is today's outfit.

River Island Jacket - £40.00

Zara Top - £25.99

Primark Jeans - £10.00

Converse (old)

So that was my weekend.  It's been a really good one and the weather has been so nice!  I can't wait for the summer.  I hope it's a good one x

Sparkly Nails and a slightly masculine outfit of the day

I can't believe I once said I don't wear monochrome much because black doesn't suit me.  I don't think black is my colour actually but it doesn't stop me wearing it.  I think I wear monochrome on an almost daily basis!  

There's something about this outfit that I feel is just ever so slightly masculine.  

River Island shirt (men's)

River Island leather-look skinny jeans

Primark Jumper

New Look shoes (old)

Nails - Maybelline Color Show in Nearly Black

The jumper is from Primark and I've had it for a while now.  It's a little on the snug side but I still really love it.  On my bottom half, I'm wearing my favourite River Island leather-look trousers.  I really do love everything about them!  Not going to bother commenting on the shoes because they are extremely old!

I picked up this nail varnish from Boots yesterday and I really like it.  It's by Maybelline and it has a real lovely shimmery, sparkly effect to it.  It has a bit of a matte finish but I think this nail varnish is in definite need of a topcoat as I think it would chip far too easily!  I also picked up the Rose Chic version which is more of a beigey pink colour - again with the same shimmery effect.  

Wednesday's Outfit of the Day: Checks & Stripe #OOTD #PatternClash #WIWT #OOTD

Today's outfit is a simple one for running around in.  I had to take my cats for their boosters at the vets this morning, then I had to pick my niece up from school as she still wasn't feeling well, then I had to rush back in time for a doctor's appointment!  So manic morning but I'm looking forward to a quiet afternoon.

Topshop Dress/Tunic (worn as top) - £29.00

Primark High Waisted Skinny Jeans - £10.00

River Island Check Jacket - £40.00

Converse (old)

Primark Necklace - £3.00

Also, have you checked out my latest fashion and beauty haul?  If not, you can check it out here!

Monday's Outfit of the Day: Checks & Leopard #OOTD #WIWT #Zara #RiverIsland #patternclash

Hey everyone, hope you are all having a lovely day.  I had to rush my son to the doctors this morning because he woke up covered in a horrible red rash!  Got him to the doctors and it's just a viral rash from where he's been unwell.  And he ate something today!!!  It was only a piece of toast but it's the first thing he's eaten since Thursday!  Wish the sick bug had that effect on me!

So anyway... back to what my blog is about... fashion!  This is today's outfit and I am in LOVE with it!

New Youtube Video & Quick Outfit of the Day: How I style dungarees/overalls #WIWT #OOTD

Sorry for my lack of posts.  It's been an awful week.  Last week, I was ill with a sick bug, Thursday my son decided to let me know that he had it when we were out shopping - sick everywhere, including on my jeans which it has now bleached (who knew sick could bleach jeans!).  Now my husband has it!  It's never ending.

Anyway, earlier in the week, I did manage to do a video on some ways that I style short dungarees.

You can check the video out by clicking here or clicking the video above - see how easy I make it for you :-)

While I'm here, I thought I'd do a quick outfit of the day post.  I literally just ran out and done this.  It's so windy which is why I look like I'm holding something to my ear.  In fact, I was just tucking my hair out of the way.

H&M Jumper - £14.99 (now £10)

Primark Blue Skinny Jeans - £11.00

Primark Shoes (old - although I'm sure they still do similar now)

Primark Necklace - £4.00 (or maybe it was £3?)

Sorry about the rubbish pictures.  But I thought they were better than nothing and I do feel guilty if I don't do a daily outfit post!  I've missed quite a few this week but, as I said, it's been a really crappy week!

Hope you're all having a lovely weekend x

Open Back Jumper: Monochrome Outfit of the Day #OOTD #WIWT #monochrome

I'm still not feeling completely myself today.  But at least I managed to get dressed before midday (which I didn't yesterday!!).  I don't do pyjama days - unless I'm ill, which I borderline am at the moment.

Anyway, this is today's outfit.

The jumper is from ASOS.  I bought it back in the early part of last summer and have only just got round to wearing it (as I was pregnant up until October last year - this jumper and a bump really does not work).  I love the open back of it.  And it's a change from just the standard jumper.  I just put this over my Primark skater skirt which was a real bargain at £3 in the sale!

Hope you are all having a lovely Wednesday x

Oriental Floral - Monday's River Island Outfit of the Day #OOTD #WIWT #RiverIsland

I picked up this dress from River Island.  It was in their offers section reduced from £20 to £15.  Not a huge discount but I love it.  It was the only one left.  It's a size 6 and I love River Island as it's probably one of the only shops I can actually wear that size.  I'm pretty sure it's a t-shirt but on me, it's a dress.  I don't think I would have bought it if it was any shorter as I think it's so pretty as a dress.

eBay Bag - £12.99

River Island T-Shirt/Dress - £15.00

River Island Chunky Zip Boots - £40.00

Primark Bracelets

I've been so ill this weekend.  All I saw on Facebook was everyone enjoying this wonderful weather and I was stuck in bed feeling very sorry for myself.  I felt like I had the worst hangover ever,  just without the good night beforehand!  So, as I was feeling better today, I thought I'd wear something nice and bright.  

I've just teamed it with my gorgeous chunky River Island boots, a pair of thick tights (it's turned a bit chillier today) and my new bag.

Hope you have all had a lovely start to the week.  Mine was definitely better than the start to the weekend! xxx
