I was just online and I came across a couple of small things on sale on missguided! I thought I'd share the love. Gotta love anything on sale.
I have a soft spot for missguided, even though a couple of things I have gotten from the site didn't work out to well.. I spotted this ribbed crop top. I think this is really summery (I know summer is coming to an end, but that's just a minor problem). This crop top is only €6.49 aswell!!

I then saw these Ivana lips shorts. They're in mint blue (my favourite colour). Again very summery, but you can never be too prepared. €9.09

Lastly I saw this daisy stretch headband. I think this would be perfect for a concert or a festival. Super-cute, definitely going in the shopping cart.

WHERE HAVE WHITE CHOCOLATE MALTESERS GONE?!
There is one food I look forward to the most when going to France/Spain and you can probaly guess it from the title. I am obsessed with white chocolate maltesers. I mean whats not to love. Is this just me or does anyone else think white chocolate is the THE best? I am in france at the minute and I can't find them ANYWHERE. So I thought I'd ask anyone out there have you seen or had white chooclate maltesers recently??? If so where. They were discontinued in Ireland about three years ago and I still haven't let go. First cadbury dreams and now these. What is the world coming to.
Also if you haven't tried them yet they come highly reccomended.
I must sound crazy. Other then the lack of white chocolate maltesers France is amazing! I'm staying in Cannes and it is so hot right now.
Does anyone else like/have information about white chocolate maltesers? let me know! :)

DIY kimono
Recently I've been loving kimonos, and I've been dying to try and make one. I've kept this tutorial cheap and easy. Ask me if you have any problems.
mark the areas you want to cut out. I wanted to get rid of the collar because I thought it would look better.
cut out your marked sections.
mark how short you want your sleeves, I cut mine quite short but you can keep yours long.
cut off your sleeves. I always cut my sleeves a little longer than I want them, just in case I make a mistake. You can always trim them later on
Next pull the edges you have cut so the curl. They'll just look a lot better than if you just leave them
Finally you need to attach the bobble fringe to the bottom hem of your kimono. I sewed mine on but you can use a glue gun to attach your fringe on if your not a big fan of sewing.
And your kimono should look something like this! I love how this turned out. You can use the bobble trimming on the sleeves to, I was just feeling a bit lazy tbh.
You will need
- a large shirt (one that's too big for you I used a large mens tshirt)
- scissors
- sewing kit or glue gun
- bobbled edging/trim (you should be able to find this in any craft or fabric shop)
Lay your shirt out flat

An intro-ish
First blog post. Exciting! This is going to be a blog about fashion and Diy's. I love everything crafty, and most tutorials should be pretty easy to do. I'll post some of my outfits. I'll also post links to cheap clothes or things on sale! I'll do my best to post weekly.
