LUSTING AFTER...
1. Coconut Oil
The health and beauty benefits from Coconut Oil are no secret anymore... Ever since Miranda Kerr revealed she is an avid user, sales have soared.- and it's about time I get myself some! Drizzled over salads, used as a moisturiser or a hair mask on dry ends, Coconut Oil is apparently "2011's must-have" ... So off to Holland & Barrett I trot.
2. Essie Ballet Slippers
So you may see a theme between the two nail varnishes I am currently wanting at the moment - no, they are not exactly the same. For ages I have wanted a nude, pink colour - but thicker than a base coat, for everyday wear... and Essie Ballet Slippers looks about perf to me.
3. Elie Saab Le Parfum
Introducing Elie Saab's first fragrance! A woman in Boots sprayed a little card for me a while back, and as I was in a rush to go and see 'One Day' at the cinema I tossed it in my bag without a second thought. It was only until later that evening when I opened my bag up that I realised how much I loved the fragrance. My whole bag had been saturated in the scent and it was amazing! Now however, the smell has well and truely left my bag and I haveee to get my hands on a bottle.
4. Nars blush in Deepthroat
I have been wanting this blush for ageees, but no longer having my bar job back at home, and student rent being ridiculous - I have had to suffer without. It's a gorge peachy-pink colour, with a little shimmer, but more subtle than the Orgasm blush. Anyone want to buy me a present?!?
5. O.P.I Bubble Bath
Yes, Yes, Yes... Another pink nail varnish. BUUUT how am I supposed to find the right colour if I don't shop around right?! Again, I'm wanting this to fulfil my need for the perfect full coverage pink. If anyone has tried either Ballet Slippers and/or Bubble Bath please let me know which is best, because at this rate... I will be buying both!

A week in pictures...
I owe you guys an update...
Yep once again, I've been M.I.A on the blogging front for a few days... But I've been busyyyyy!
Starting back at Uni, and 3 whole days of unbelievable October weather has meant my blog has taken a back seat!!
Here are some photos however of the past week(ish) to keep you up to date!
1. Decided to go for white nails on Monday which, I have done before.. but I'm never quite sure of the rules for white nails... Is it a yes?! Personally I like 'em!
2. This was taken before a night out to Mechu in Birmingham with my gorge housemates. Outfit... Bodycon Skirt from Topshop, One-Shoulder top from H&M (which was in the sale for £5 BARGAIN!) and studded black waist belt from Primark!
3. So with the AMAZING weather we've been having, there's also been some not so amazing critters about. Yes, I got stung by a wasp! Thing is ... I wasn't even angering the little b*stard! I thought it was a fly that had landed on my neck, so politely went to shoo it away and it stuck its bloody stinger in me! YOUCH. (P.S it still hurts)
4. A sneeky shot of a pitcher of Cosmos from Frankie & Bennys which the girls and I gulped down.
5. Dancing on stage at the HMV institute in Brum with my fellow housemate Alex! (Note: this was not after the cosmos!)
6. A picture of my OCD (I'd rather think of it as highly-organised) make-up drawer at my new Uni house!
7. For our 6th anniversary last weekend, the boyfriend and I stayed in Manchester... Outfit - LBD from Republic, and nude heels from Carvela :-)
8. Another night out in Birmingham (... well it was freshers week) this time at Gatecrasher.
9. A photo of our Barry M crackle nails ! (Not the strange coloured drink in our hands- I think it was this gross aldi substitute for southern comfort)
10. This is a screenshot of my mums recent tweet "I wish I was a puppy." ... If you're wanting more dog-related updates, follow her... because she's quite funny.. @louiseburcham
So yes dolls, that's been my week - and is also my excuse for being an awful blog writer. Please forgive me and keep reading because I quite like you all !!
