Great coat, I love that hat... #1: The Piano Dress.

It's not often that I pull on the heels and head out for a night out, but my lovely friends convinced me that I needed to attend their university ball, (which happened about a month ago).  I obviously needed a new dress for the occasion, so I headed straight to Modcloth online, and found this gorgeous piano dress. 

The dress itself is lovely.  It has pockets (+1000000 practicality points), it fits well, and you don't have to worry about it being to short or too low cut.  It sits just above the knees, so you can dance the night away and not have to worry if you're showing your underwear.

I wore my red London Underground heels which I bought from Polly Shoes about five years ago; I know they're comfy, and will go with pretty much anything. 

On my lips I wore my favourite lip product of all time, the Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Cruella.  This product is matte, and so lasts a looooooong time. I didn't need to reapply at all.

A photo trail... My London Trip.

It's been more than six months since I returned home after a whirlwind trip to England and France.  I still find myself constantly scrolling through the hundreds of photos reminiscing about the amazing times my friends and I had.

From getting photobombed at Big Ben, to seeing cool cover bands, to cheeky Paris Mac purchases, to Zara pleather jacket purchases, to seeing a bride and groom sliding down a slide, to meeting celebrities... We did it all!

 

Popping by to visit the Dursleys.

Carrie Hope Fletcher was stellar in Les Mis, and the 

loveliest person!

 Brighton was definitely one of the highlights of the trip for me.

As was walking across the famous Abbey Road!

Hope you enjoyed my nostalgic journey through photos. Where have you been on holidays lately?

Filling a room with balloons... It's possible.

 

When I received a message from a friend of mine - about this time last year - inviting me and a few others over to blow up enough balloons to fill her bedroom, I had a bit of a chuckle... And then I realised she was deadly serious.  

So along we all went, and blew up hundreds of balloons to tick this item off her bucket list.  At times it was a struggle, and our fingers were swollen for days afterwards from tying the balloons, but we accomplished what we set out to do.

Keep in mind, we are all almost 20, so it was not the most natural thing to be doing, but we had an amazing time.

The photo evidence of that day has never properly graced the internet... Until now.

Ingrid, with her lifelong dream fulfilled.
