Staying Home, Doing Nothing


I already don't know where I'm going with this post. All I know is that I haven't had a chance to write on here for a long time. So if you're prepared to hear me natter on, then welcome. Last night was so much fun spending a night on scary fair ground rides, eating candy-floss with great friends for company. But afterwards, I couldn't wait to get home and do nothing. At the end of the night I was okay with getting in the car to go home- I was looking forward to it, even though I had a fantastic evening. Weird.

Tonight, after being stuck in, home alone, I just want to do anything but be at home, doing nothing. (The phone call from a fore mentioned friends may not have helped, even though it was lovely at the time.)

Why is it that I can't help but change my mind. This morning I was longing for the prospect of two weeks break from school, with no plans whatsoever. Now, knowing that I won't see my chums until Halloween, I feel a bit sad. I would love to be at my friend Georgia's house right now with the girls, but work calls- at the horrible time of 8:30am tomorrow.

I guess the moral of this dilemma is that I need to make some plans. So far my plans are homework and blogging. So it looks like I have the whole staying home, doing nothing thing all sorted. This could be an interesting half term break.

Cornwall | Photo Diary

1st day at the beach- wearing Green Berry, Barry M Gelly Nails




Surprise pattern coordination with my mum

I had the yummiest lemon sole at Sam's in Polkerris. 


One afternoon we had the nicest Cream Tea at Coombe Farm, a sweet little B&B. I could eat this everyday and never get sick of it. 


My instagram followers will know that we spent one evening at the Minack Theatre- which is carved into the cliff-side and has the sea as a back drop. 



There were so many cute shops in Fowey.

My last night. 

Hi everyone- here are a few snaps from last week's holiday! We had surprisingly great weather and I had a blast (hopefully the pictures show it). Are you going anywhere this summer? Let me know what you're all doing!

Take a look at my Holiday Reading List and my Holiday Picks

The Holiday Reading List


Tess of the d'Urbevilles- Thomas Hardy
The Lucky One- Nicholas Sparks
Harper's Bazaar

My Holiday Reading List is something I look forward to making. I have the habit of reading before I go to sleep, and that would be fine if I didn't fall asleep after about 3 pages because I'm so tired. Holidays are one of the few times that I can really get stuck into a book. Here are my choices for this year. High up on my list was The Great Gatsby but I couldn't get my hands on a copy! I went to see the film last weekend and it was incredible, so it's definitely on my list. 

What are you reading this summer?

The Holiday Picks



Solana Beach Body Mist & Moisteriser- Hollister
Shades- New Look
Gelly Nail Polish in Greenberry- Barry M
Shorts- Fat Face


When I go on holiday I wear shorts and a t shirt 90% of the time. I keep it simple with bright nails (Barry M have some gorgeous summer colours, and there's no guilt because they're super affordable!) I choose one fragrance for the week and this time it's Solana Beach  by Hollister. Make up is minimal (as usual) and I keep skin looking fresh by using a BB Cream rather than Foundation. 


T-Shirts- Primark
Flower Print Bikini Bottoms- Next
Watch- River Island
BB Cream- Garnier
