Ibiza Rocks! 

I'm not going to lie, when the girls first asked me if I wanted to go to Ibiza with them this year I said no, when they told me Bastille were playing I found myself £500 down and booking a week off work. 

In the run up to this holiday I was forever telling people I'd only be going the once with no intention of coming back. But when our week came to an end I was very reluctant to get on the plane home.

T Shirt - Zara // Trousers - The Saddleworth Boutique // Trainers - Adidas


From planning all my evening outfits and hammering them out on Instagram (apologies) to making friends with the man at the kebab shop, I can honestly say I've had one of the best weeks of my life.

Co-ord Top and Skirt - Missguided // Trainers - As Before



And let's not forgot about the whole reason I booked this holiday in the first place, Bastille. As we stayed at the Ibiza Rocks Apartments ticketed events at the main hotel were included in our stay so we could just stroll up the road whenever we felt like it really.




I've seen Bastille around 5 times now and I still can't get enough. It was the perfect opportunity to see them preform in such a small environment which I think are the best gigs you can go to. They never disappoint and I'm so incredibly happy that wanting to see them led me to having an amazing holiday with the girls.

Kimono - H&M // Swimsuit - River Island // Flatforms - Office



We booked quite a lot of our events before we went, meaning we got to make the most of our time there! Our first day was spent at Ocean Beach which was amazing, but very expensive. If you are thinking about going I would highly suggest paying for a bed. It is a lot of money but you do get the majority of that back to spend on food and drinks. I would recommend taking even more though because the cheapest bottle of Vodka is 275 euros, so you're going to need some extra spending money!

As the week went on we also attended My House by Martin Solveig at Pacha, Craig David's TS5 Pool Party and Radio 1 in Ibiza at Hi Ibiza! I am sorry for the lack of photos from these events, I was simply having too much of a good time!


Dress - New Look





So what was meant to be a 'you've got to do it once holiday' I think it's safe to say I will be returning next year!

Club Tropicana

British summer time is so confusing! One minute I feel like I'm on holiday, the next I'm dressed like its winter. I guess that's something we should have got used to by now.

A couple of weeks back I purchased this amazingly tropical jumpsuit and I'm pretty sure you guys are going to be pleasantly surprised at where it's from. Drum roll please... this go to summer look is from the Tu range at Sainsbury's. At only £22 it's great value for money and something that I'll wear for all kinds of occasions.

I don't normally shop at supermarket brands, and I don't really have a reason why, maybe I get distracted by the food, but I'm so glad I took the time to have a look around and see what was on offer.

Fingers crossed now that Manchester stays sunny, but lets be honest, the umbrellas will always have to be on hand.










So there it is! Perfect for dressing up or down and something that is going to see me through the summer whether that be in the UK or abroad.

Let me know what you guys think about supermarket fast fashion trends and if you've got a favourite that you always pick up some bargains from. I'll definitely be keeping my eye out from now on!

This Morning Live

Now I don't know about you guys but I absolutely love This Morning, and I'm not sure if that should be a guilty pleasure or not but I've got nothing to hide!

Last week, for the first time This Morning went live at the NEC in Birmingham where they featured everything that the show is known for. My mum and I took full advantage of this and hopped on (no word of a lie) one of the first trains of the Friday morning down to the Midlands to experience this much talked about event.






This Morning Live was held over four days from Thursday 18th May to Sunday 21st May. During the events there was plenty to see and do. From a range of stalls selling clothes, interior goods and not to mention food, to health and beauty advice! There were also opportunities for you to support charities such as Guide Dogs UK, Dogs Trust and Cancer Research.





Alongside these, there were interviews with some of the shows favourite presenters, catwalk shows and beauty tutorials, literally something for everyone!






Although we didn't managed to get a selfie with either Phil or Gino we still had an amazing day eating doughnuts the size of our heads; meeting the amazing guide dogs who make such a difference to people's lives and going back in time and getting our hair done by the lovely lady at the English Heritage stand.






Although it is over now for this year I think it is something they will continue with and I would highly recommend getting tickets for it! One little word of advice though, which I myself will do next time, buy a VIP ticket. Not only do you get into the event first but there is seating allocated at the stages for these guests, exclusive areas, including free prosecco and it's also they only real chance we saw of getting to meet the likes of Phil and Holly without having to queue up for a good chunk of your day.

Dreamin' of new Kicks

I've always been on of these gals that lives in trainers. As silly as it sounds, I get scared of wearing anything else. I always seem to get blisters and sore feet from other shoes, trainers are like my safety blanket and I can trust them to get me through a busy day.

Over the past couple of months, I have got better and started to wear more boots, let's be honest, it's not quite sandal weather just yet. However, the way I see it is, there is always room for a new pair of kicks, and that is what this post is all about.

As it was my pay day yesterday, I think it's only fair I show you what's currently catching my eye.

Adidas // £45
Navy isn't a colour that I'd normally go for but I actually really like these! It's a change from black and heading into the summer it's nice to experiment with different colours while not making a dramatic change. For £45, they're a steal!
New Balance // £69.99

Adidas // £94.99
These Adidas Eqt Support Rf have got to be my favourite pair which I've featured! I'm obsessed with the colours and the whole design. Yes, they're a bit pricier than some of the others, but I believe they are completely worth it!
Superga // £59.99
 I tried these on a couple of years back and found that no matter what size I tried on, they were either too big or small for me. I'm so tempted to give them a try again though, look at that platform!
Puma Fenty // £120
 Being a massive Rihanna fan I am naturally drawn to these beauties. However, I do have one worry, being cream satin I think it's safe to say I will scuff them up one way or another. 
Nike // £66.99

Adidas // £49.99
Superstars are my go to trainer and I have gone through quite a few pairs now. These are definitely on my must buy list, everyone needs a bit of metallic in their life!
