Monday Monday...

Ok, so as for the giveaway - definitely going to happen! Now I've had the idea, I keep seeing things I want to get for it - it's going to be great :) Mixture of make-up, jewellery, smellies, clothes - dunno, bit of everything! I'll confirm details (when I've decided them!), but am now thinking that maybe 40 followers is a more obtainable goal than 50..?

So, here are some snippets of my work outfit today:









Have just noticed that my ENTIRE outfit is comprised of Primark purchases (apart from the jewellery):

• Dress - £5 (sale - ages ago)
• Cardigan - £5 (sale - not so long ago - first time I've worn it)
• Tights - £1 (can't go wrong with Primark tights - they're bloody great!)
• Shoes - £6 (had these AGES - have also got the exact same pair, in cream & a pretty lilacy/blue)
• Scarf - £2.50 I think - again, had this a very long time
• Necklace - eBay
• Rings - Ethel Austin & H&M

You may well notice that I'm very unlikely to do full outfit posts - even though they tend to be my favourite kind of posts that other people do! This is mainly down to the fact I'm highly unphotogenic (apart from my hands apparently!) & I'm not actually comfortable in my own body, therefore tend to dislike pics of myself. I've put on quite a lot of weight in a relatively short space of time, & it's like my mind still hasn't caught up with my body - so I'm still surprised & horrified when I see myself in pictures sometimes, how big I am. I'm a good couple of dress sizes bigger than my mind remembers me being (although I only used to be a size 8..) So I don't really want to post that on the internet! Will keep sharing things I've bought & are wearing though, just not in proper outfit posts. Hope that's ok!

So, as I've previously mentioned, I'm having a pretty hard time of it at the moment. I don't want to go into why or anything, but as a consequence, I'm not sleeping very well. At all. I've never been a great sleeper, but at the moment I'm averaging 3hrs a night - & even that sleep is broken. As a result of this - the bags under my eyes are horrendous! I've always been dark under my eyes, but it's getting ridiculous - I look like I've been in a boxing ring, my under eyes are so purple. They don't go puffy or anything, just really dark. & I get paler when I'm tired, so that accentuates even more. Anyway, there was a point to this rambling! I've just ordered this:



Tis a L'oreal Visible Lift Under Eye Concealer. Now, gotta be honest - this area is not my expertise - so was wondering if anyone had any experience of this product? Is it any good? I'm not too worried, as I've ordered it anyway - but it's only from eBay (brand new & sealed, obviously), & I've paid £2 including p&p, so it's not the end of the world if it's not amazing. I was just wondering!

Right, this post feels like it's taken forever to compose - so I'd best leave it there I think.
(Actually, on that point - do you think I write too much? Would you prefer more images, less text? Let me know your opinions! Not that I'll necessarily take any notice :p but I'd be interested to hear)

Take care,
