I saw these photos on fashion gone rogue last week, and had to share! Theres just something so nice and relaxing about these photos, very appealing to me right now considering how exhausted I am from this week, I dont know why, but something made me sleep a good chunk of this day away, I guess you just need one of those recovery days once and awhile. Hope you all have a good weekend! =)

Here's to 2011
Im know im a month behind everyone else but I didn't post any resolutions earlier this month as I hadn't really thought of any. I tend to hibernate during January and any eating or sociallising resolutions would go straight out of the winter.
However with February fast approaching I've decided to kick start the new year after this weekend! I really don't want to make any plans I know I can't stick to but still want to challenge myself.
- This year I will go back onto the Dukan diet from February in order to get in shape for holiday.
- I will not get any parking offences.
- I will start the two projects I've had on my mind for the last few months.
So three, hopefully acheivable tasks. The Dukan diet was so successful when I tried it over the summer and im hoping to have the same results again.
When it comes to parking tickets, clamping and even towing im useless, I dread to think what they add up to, last years alone could have bought a Mulberry bag - shocking I know.
The two projects i'll reveal a little more when things get off the ground, both I want to start as hobbies and see where they take me.
How have you got on with any resolutions you made in January, how are you managing to stick to them?

Don't you hate it when....
You have an item on your wish list for some time but you never get round to buying it. You spy it at half price, it arrives and you excitedly try it on and Oh, it just doesn't look good......!
That's exactly what happened, I wanted the House of Harlow Abalone Starburst ring and pendant for ages. My-Wardrobe had them in the sale for half price, I finally get them and the pendant looks great. The ring however takes over my entire hand, it covers three of my fingers and looks like a satellite dish on me. Back they go.
I never usually wear gold but would have liked both items to wear together so both are heading back.
Oh well, what's next on the wish list....
What's your most disappointing purchase once it has arrived?

United Nude
I discovered these shoes awhile back and instantly fell in love! I love the simple structures yet they still seem so unique. Plus the first ones kind of remind me of a new version of the famous Balenciaga platform sandals made famous by who else? the Olsen twins!
I hope you all had a great weekend! Why do they go so fast!?

Clean them everyday
I have to hold my hands up and admit I am terrible at shampooing my make-up brushes, I always think, I'll wash them at the weekend and then conveniently forget..! My brushes aren't heavily used infact my blusher brush is the only brush that is used daily. Foundation, bronzer and eyeshadow are more likely to be once a week. I decided to try a daily brush cleaner and finally ordered one before Christmas and have been using it for a few weeks now.
I chose between the Bare Minerals daily brush cleaner 133mls £6.99 and the E.L.F version 250mls £3.50. For nearly twice as much and half the price I chose the E.L.F cleaner.
This product is a god send for someone like me - two sprays on the brush and a wipe over clean tissue or a cotton pad and you can see the colour coming off, I then leave in to dry. It even worked on my angled brush I had put gel liner on.
It does have a reasonably strong smell, quite medicated which I personally like and the brush really does feel clean the next morning when I go to use it.
You can buy the spray cleaner here and for £3.50 its well worth a try. http://www.eyeslipsface.co.uk/product~prodID~168.htm

New brown leather
Here are a couple of my sales buys. The brown leather shorts are so soft and will be perfect as soon as I can start baring my legs. They are from River Island and were similar to a pair on my Christmas wishlist back in December.
The brown leather and wood sandals feel great to walk in although i've only stepped around the apartment so far! The wooden heel isn't too high and they have a nice height platform with thick yet comfy leather criss crossed straps. These were a Zara buy and will be perfect for my holiday.
What tops would you wear with the shorts? I was thinking of keeping it simple with loose tees tucked in?
