toms toms toms!

Just a quick mention to start with.... I've stocked up on Cupcake Cross stitch kits on Folksy.  CLICK HERE TO SEE.

So!  My toms shoes came in the post this week.  They are SO comfy.  I got the black vegan ones (many MANY other colours available).  For those of you who don't know, Toms give a pair of shoes to a child in need, for every pair sold, so it's a pretty good deal!  I can see my self wearing these so much in the summer, and they're great for work too!

I've been trying to cut down on buying clothes, and just getting things that I actually NEED (in all seriousness, I really DID need some shoes),  but this cute rabbit top was too cute to pass on.

Isn't it sweet!? and not too much money too.  Thank you H&M.

I invested in some new primer this week. I'd heard great things about 17's new primer (from Boots), and only £4.99.  It actually is quite good, I'm pleased with it.  Two pea sized bits pretty much cover my whole face, so considering the tube is tiny, it should last a while. 

17 Primer

I discovered a new product whilst trekking round Boots.  'Naked.'  It's all natural and animal friendly (the best kind of product).  I'd been meaning to buy hair spray for ages, but I really dislike the smell of it, I hate breathing in things like that.  My hair often goes static at work, due to the heaters and touching polyester clothes all day.  Is this hair spray the answer?  Time will tell.  I've tried it once so far, but i think i held it too close to my head.  It seems very liquidy, but I'll try again.

Totoro embroidery

As you can see, my embroidery is taking a LONG time.  I will work on some tonight I think, and maybe do some on my lunch break in work tomorrow.  FYI, I will be blending the shadow a bit more into the non-shadow. 
Speaking of totoro, how cute is this totoro tshirt I found on Tumblr:

Overly cute t-shirt

WHERE CAN I GET ONE??  SOMEONE TELL ME!

Manic PANIC!

So I re-dyed the green bit in my hair... woopsie!  Totally forgot to wear gloves!  ha ha ha.  I was so worried this would stain my hand for days, but just a day later i was back to normal.  Thank God for semi-permanents!  Time to add some blue next I think. 

In knitting news, I'm going to start one of these next week (not sure which one yet, probably the owl first):

Owl from Let's Knit mag

I find the owl a bit funny looking.  It's like he's got a mask on!  So I'd have to change that, but i think the frills are really cute.

In other (and probably not very interesting) news, I ordered these cute kitty leggings from boohoo.com

Kitty leggings!

I'm very excited to get them.  They only had one review, and it wasn't good :( so I hope mine are ok.  They only cost a fiver, and they'd sold out when I looked at them again later that day.  Glad i got them in time.

Final thoughts.... Here is a picture of my Pirates of the Caribbean transfer I put on at work...
and a cutie photo of my doggy!

 

Now I'm off to bake some vegan brownies to take to my friend Chris's house on Sunday night.  Me and Rob are going round to watch Wrestlemania (yes... i LOVE wrestling) at midnight. 

Over and out. xxx
