It's BBQ time!

Ahh todays a proper BBQ day in England isn't it? I've been jamming around in my new bikini and my Abercrombie shorts trying to get some colour on me before the cruise. We also have family coming over later for our first BBQ of the summer which should be nice.


This Morning I went up to Sainsbury's with my Mum to buy some BBQ food/alcohol and along the way came across the 'Dirty Works' range (exclusive to Sainsburys). After reading Holly's brand review I couldn't resist picking up some of the products. Like Holly, I was drawn to the quirky retro packaging and the purse-friendly prices (especially the 1/3 off deal Sainsburys is offering at the moment). 


I got myself the Dirty Works Glamour Shimmer Puff for £3.32 and Dirty Works Get Set Go! Mini set for £3.32,  also. The Get Set Go box contains 'Bare Necessity Body Lotion,' 'All of a Lather Body Wash' and 'Think of England Bath Soak.' I also purchased the 'Gently Does it Facial Wipes.'


I also Picked up a copy of Marie Claire magazine (which came with a free Ciate lipgloss) as it contained an interview with the talented Audrey Tautou, who I have loved since her role in 'Amelie.'

And whats in your bag?

I've seen a few 'Whats in your bag?' posts around recently and it looks like fun! So here is the idea: you post your last used handbag and all of its content. No matter how weird or embarrassing!

This is my Accessorize bag which my lovely boyfriend bought me on our 2 year anniversary! 

Its very ALexa Chung and I absolutely adore it. I pair it with practically everything!

I also like the pretty lining inside!

Here is the contents:

Lush Helping Hands hand cream
Sinex Soother nasal spray (I have a cold, boo :()
Missguided Lipsplash in 'Missfortune'
Cherry Carmex
My keys (attached to bracelet from Futuroscope in France, complete with sperm keyring (don't ask!!))
My iPod (A.K.A Marvin)
A roll of film to be developed
Garnier Mineral deodorant
My purse from River Island

P.s. Listen to Angus and Julia Stone's song 'For You' its gorgeous, dreamy and I can't switch it off.

Currently loving: ASOS.com

I love ASOS's new collection! The bold, block colours look amazing! I think my favourite has to be those green denim cut offs, they are such a great colour! Now I just need to find some money....

About me

Hi, I'm Nicol and I have finally decided to make a blog too, a place where I can waffle about random musings to my hearts content. 

Here you will find reviews of things I watch/read/buy, updates about my day to day life and some of my own photography.

A bit about myself-

I'm a (very) nearly 17 year old student from London studying Biology, English Literature and Photography at A Level. Next year I hope to go to a top university to study English Literature. I love to read and I hope to inspire others on this website to read more too! 

I take photographs on a Canon EOS 500D

 

 I currently live with my parents, younger sister and our pet cat, Kiki Dee:
