China Glaze Ruby Pumps

I bought this after getting a recommendation on twitter of what nail varnishes I should have in my life, and when I looked this one up I knew I had to have it.  I've had it for a while, but it just never felt like the right time to wear it.  I don't know about you but red glitter screams "CHRISTMAS" to me.  I tried to wait a little longer honest, but I'm already desperate to put up my pink Christmas tree and it's the beginning of November.  And two posts ago I was rocking a decidedly Christmassy jumper even though I'm telling myself it's suitable for all winter months!  It seems this year I have reverted to being a big kid about Christmas, even though for the last few years I haven't really been excited at all.  Don't really know what's going on but, meh I'll just go with it!

The Answer to Every Problem Involved Penguins

So...this is my 100th post, I can't believe I've managed to write that much drivel!  But anyhoo, I just wanted to do a quick 'What I'm Wearing' makeup post, and sort of half outfit post - because this is the first day since I've hurt my foot that I wasn't wearing lounging clothes, my hair scraped back with no makeup.  Only because I was leaving the house, I could never be bothered with that if I wasn't going anywhere!

Will Work For Work

I mentioned in my last post that I'm still looking for a job, and I felt like I just really needed to get some things about it out of my head because it's been really dragging me down.  Now, while I have known for a while that getting a job wasn't going to be easy, no one tells you that the constant rejection/being ignored really takes a toll on you.  Part of me thought that by now I'd be getting some results but still, nada!  I went into nursing believing that, since it's never off the news about the NHS needing nurses, that I would be able to get a job with out too much heartache.  But it's really not the case.

It's My Turn To Be The Black Swan

Everyone all over Facebook, Twitter and Blogger land has already gone out over the weekend for Halloween, and I've loved seeing what everyone has gone as!  My friends and I decided to go out on the Wednesday - actual Halloween.  They're all still students and I'm still searching for a job now I'm qualified, so we can do the whole, nights out in the middle of the week thing.  In fact I might do a post on finishing uni and trying to find a suitable job soon, because it hasn't been fun and a good rant should sort me out!  Anyway, this Halloween my main goal was minimal budget, because of course I'm not working at the moment.  So I looked through my wardrobe and had a bit of a dilemma.  I have a long black dress, so I thought, I'll go as Audrey Hepburn a la Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffany's - but the dress isn't anything like that at all.  It's all ruched at the front and actually looks more like something one of the gals from Downton Abbey would wear - but I thought if I dressed up as that everyone would be asking me who I am all night - and feebly explaining that "I'm dressed like someone from Downton Abbey" while not actually being specifically dressed as one of the characters would make me look stupid.  On to the next!
