I'm Home

And my, my, my there is lots for me to say. I don't even know where to start.

For starters I had an ab-fab time in Belfast. And enjoyed myself on the day trip to Dublin. I took a fair few photos - though not as many as boyfriend - and I even managed to get some *rather dodgy* pictures at the fashion show on Thursday night.
This is one of my favourite shots of myself from the holiday... This was taken a short walk away from our hotel. I'm wearing leggings (H&M); black jumper dress (Matalan); strap top (Primark); Coat (BHS); handbag (Jimmy Choo for H&M); scarf (Next); and boots (can't remember where from).

I'm going to slowly put together a big montage of all the vaguely ok photos I got at the fashion show - I'll probably save that montage for another blog a bit later on. However, I will share with you the picture I took of my goody bag.
And because I dragged boyfriend along (poor bugger) I basically got double the goodies. Win? I think so.
What else to say? Hmm, well in Dublin I did crazy amounts of shopping. Well, ok, not CRAZY amounts, but a reasonable amount. I went into A|Wear (new favourite store for now) and bought couple of tops and a dress. I have no doubt pictures will be popping up as we go along.
I also went into H&M in Dublin and bought more leggings (yawn-fest, but I seem to live in them at the moment) aaaaand a new shirt; a bit like my pink Uniqlo one.

Whilst away, I obviously needed something to do to tide me over in the evenings and whilst waiting for my turn in the shower in the mornings, so I took a book with me. The book was "Fast Friends" by Jill Mansell and is definitely a must read if you like chick-lit.
Jill Mansell always seems to fabulous novels with plenty of raunchiness, lots of fabulous outfit descriptions, and fantastic story lines that pull you in. I think I drove boyfriend mildly insane when every morning it was "you can go in the shower now," "yeah, ok, I'll just finish this chapter..." *15 minutes later* "are you going in the shower?" "yeah, yeah. I accidentally started a new chapter... I'll just finish this one. Honest..."
Needless to say, he learnt to look over my shoulder as I was getting close to the end of chapters and then snatched the book away from me so we actually got things done with our days. Woops!

Anyway, for now I'm going to run away and watch "Love Story" - according to my mother, a classic that I have to see, and seeing as it was a freebie disc with a paper the other week, I'm willing to give in and watch it.
I'll chuck up a montage of my fashion show photos at some point in the not too distant future. But before I run, here's a picture of what I wore for the show:
Jeans (vintage), boots (can't remember), strap top (Florence + Fred) and lace top (H&M).
