Bonnie & Clyde


Bonnie & Clyde (vampire style) yes yes I know, everyone seems to be obsessed with vampires at the moment...all thanks to the likes of Robert "that bloke who died in that Harry Potter film" Pattinson - how wonderful (all right all right - I secretly have a soft spot for him and his mysteriousness....)

Enough of that - yes, we (Chris & I...obviously) are going to be Bonnie & Clyde (Not exactly like them though.... now that's going beyond method acting!) I have bought an outfit that sort of resembles the likes of these two:



Here's my own take on it..... Not as fantastic but it's a close call (ish) :)



Hat from Accessorize £10.00
Blouse from Debenhams (Red Herring) Sale £15.00
Shorts from Primark £10.00
Shoes from New Look £49.99
Tights from M&S £5.00

Not sure if I'll wear the shorts again but Ill wear the other stuff again. Shirt to work...possibly. The hat is cute and cosy for cold evenings. Shoes - classic nights out (hmmm....drink + High Heels?? Good idea? erm.... not really - but they look good on though....)

All I need now is a gun (feels strange saying that) and a blonde wig or I could try out a few 1930's hairstyles.

Chris will look gorgeous in a suit and a hat :) Now we need to work on our make-up - meh, let's just hope for the best and see how it goes :P hehe.

Night Night :)

The Shopping Queen


Oh dear - I went a bit SHOPPING MAD over the weekend!! Chris & I went to Chester and got a load of...... coal..... hah - not even I believe that. We bought a load of clothes....well - correction - I bought a load of clothes. Hmmm. One can not have too many clothes - And that is why I have almost 3 wardrobes full. Not too bad in my opinion. hah.Typical of a man "Do you really need a new top with a silly slogan on it?" ....Yes I Do!

My oldest sister made me giggle by saying "I can not stand going shopping with my husband - if I ask him what top I should get, he shouldn't chose just the one...he should tell me they're all fabulous and by the lot!"

Chris likes to follow me around - like an annoying critic on my shoulder. "Do you really need that?" "You could buy a Christmas Present with what your spending on that" "Money isn't just for spending" Why why why do I always think it's a good idea to go shopping with him. I guess I'm secretly wishing he was a bit more feminine when shopping with me.....that will obviously never happen...but I would like a guy to tell me (without being attracted to me) what I look good in and not just agree....that is definitely a dream that will NEVER happen! Walk through the shop doors and taa-daa he's showing what would look good on me and "Who cares how much it is - just buy it darling!" hah - makes him sound flamboyant.

Blablabla - I went shopping, got lovely clothes and shoes and I'm happy :) ....he got a shirt - very nice...but none the less - he should have shown a bit more interest in what I picked out for him (including the top with Zippy from Rainbow on it...haha - I'm kidding - well - I secretly wanted him to buy it so I could wear it) Sensible young man that I love dearly - but aaaaaaaargh -I can't just walk past a shop and go - "No! I don't need those lovely cashmere tops with ruffles and a pair of shoes to match" but I doooo! Men...well - CHRIS

Enough of that. I am very tired and it is time for bed - and tomorrow I shall reveal what I'm going as for Halloween!

Lilac Wedding





So here we go - Wedding plans!!

We have decided to get married at Llanrhos Church in North Wales. It is where my Sister Lara and my Brother Jonathan got married (Thankfully not to eachother!)



LLANRHOS CHURCH

Ivory & Lilac are the main colours for the wedding (Guess who chose that?)

I was hoping to just have my sisters and nieces as my Bridesmaids and Flowergirls, but people are never happy!! I won't go in to that! So I'm planning to have as my Bridesmaids
  • Bethan (My Sister)
  • Carys (My Niece)
  • Laura (A Close Friend)
  • Kat (A Close Friend)
My Flowergirls shall be
  • Ffion (Niece)
  • Ashleigh-Ann (Chris's Niece)
Unfortunately I have asked 2 others whilst I was influenced by alcohol....& I have no idea how I'm going to let them down gently :( I hardly ever see them!

Right - here area few ideas of what I want the whole Wedding to look like. (Chris is leaving it to me... he doesn't think we should we talking about it until it's a little closer to the date... blablabla)




The men will be hiring suits from GreenWoods (The grey suit at the bottom of the picture) http://www.1860.com/en/cat/home.aspx

Going to look properly at Wedding dresses etc next year - no idea what I want! The Groom shall never know..... well - not until the Wedding day!

100 guests.... enough I think (well - to be honest - I would love to invite more people but money is an issue)

I have now had enough of typing (actually no - Mama has just shouted me for my Lunch :P)

We need to buy a flat - I don't fancy getting married and being dropped off at home... hmmm

Just Engaged. Help Appreciated

I haven't blogged in a while so I thought I's talk about what has happened in the last few months!!
I am now ENGAGED and incredibly happy! I can not wait for the big day :)
We shall be getting married in the month of June in the year 2012 in a lovely welsh Chapel :) Happy days! I'll add some more details in the next blog :)

I am still Temping and to be honest I am fed up of it. A stupid new law is making it VERY difficult for younger women to be employed (incase we get pregnant.....) Unfair :(

Chris is lovely and somewhat daft as per usual (just the way I like him) We are finding it quite hard to save money! We want to save the same amount but Chris is unable to save a lot all thanks to his car... :( But we'd find it very difficult without his car.

Also, we are trying to find a flat/home. Nowhere near getting one to be honest! argh! There's more chance of a pig singing opera.

If there's anyone out there reading this and is able to perform miracles - look our way please!!
