Belle's Beauty Blog: They Never Said It Would Be Easy

So I haven't posted in a while

It's been a tough week

On the plus side I've spent some time seeing my friends

I won't go into details here but I owe a lot to my friends and family

They are all my rocks and I don't know how I would have coped this week/weekend

Love them all to bits <3

I've very nearly finished uni now

All my 120 film is scanned and just needs editing

Anyone good at photoshop!? I suck at it!!!

I've got two essays to write but one's very nearly there so not stressing yet

Believe me in two weeks time I'll be ripping my hair out

The weight loss is going well, I've lost 9 and a half pounds to date and people are starting to notice :)

Right now I'm trying to decide what to do for my 21st

My Mum wants one thing but I'm not sure it's practical

I want another but the boy isn't keen on it

How to keep everyone happy!

Due to my current situation I've done a wee bit of retail therapy

It has significantly raised my spirits...sad but true

No outfits recently as I've felt pretty rubbish

I'll try and get on it this week

Mini 'Haulage'

Primark Diamante Studded Jumper

£12

I really love love love this

I bought it on a whim last weekend and wore it straight out that night

I stayed at my Mum's a few days and didn't have the right clothes to go out with

I decided on this with skinny jeans and black biker boots

I only went to the local gay bar (it's actually pretty awesome :) ) with a few friends in an effort to put a smile on my face, which it definitely did

Again I love them so much

The blush pink colour works well with my skin tone which I really wasn't expecting

So yeah I'm impressed with my little Primark purchase

This very nearly felt like fate...

Primark Cherry Print Playsuit

£13

The only one of these I saw in my local Primark and it was my size

Granted it doesn't quite do up but it won't be long

Literally half an inch and it's there

My other playsuit from Primark has elasticated bit on it so I assume the fact this one doesn't explains why it doesn't quite fit

Can't wait to wear this

Close up of the print

New Look Camel Dotty Peter Pan Collar Dress

£10

I tried this on when it was full priced and begrudgingly put it back on the shelf

It didn't fit at all :( And I refused to size up

Normally I don't mind but for some reason I wouldn't this time

When I saw this in the sale for a tenner I grabbed it

It still doesn't quite do up but it goes up a hell of a lot further than it did

I reckon this will fit around the same time the playsuit will

I know it seems silly to buy clothes that don't quite fit but to me it's an incentive to get into all the prettyness

The bestest took me to Lakeside last week

I hadn't been in years

The Primark there quite literally BLEW MY EFFING MIND

I fell in love

It's huge, much bigger than my local store

I prefer it to Oxford Street, no where near as busy and I felt I didn't have to rush

I could have literally spent hundreds in there

I'm not too ashamed to say I dreamed about it that night :/ okay maybe that is slightly embarassing...

Primark Floral Summer Dress

£5 yes another one

This was so flattering, I'll wear it with tights now but can't wait to get my bare legs out in the Summer

No idea what to call this...

Erm a floral Kimono/Bedroom Jacket/Blaaah??

Anyway it was £10 and I only saw it in my size

Another fateful purchase?

I wore this the other day to the cinema with my Mummy (we saw Battle LA, go see it it's AMAZING!!) and I felt so summery, shame it was still so bloody cold
