91: Weekly outfits ^^

Hey guys~

How are we all?

Lately, I've been thinking I'll change up how I do my fashion posts...

Rather than lots of small ones, I'll just post one weeks worth ^^

Clearly, I'm still obsessed with this jumper ^^

Unfortunately, when I'm revising, all my outfits have the tendency to turn into something like this.... Comfort> style in exam season ^^;;

Anyway, I'm finished my exams now ^^ which hopefully means better content here ^^

As I've finished my first year of uni, I'll probably do a series of posts about uni... Not because I am an expert, but because I always loved to read about that kind of stuff last year ^^

I hope everyone is doing well ☆〜（ゝ。∂）

Thanks for reading! ♡

It's exam season, and everyone in school/ uni is probably a bit down...
Exams or not, it's always great to give yourself some pampering, right?♡
Here are some ideas for some quick pick me ups

1: Blueberries/ a healthy treat

2: fancy tea/ coffee (my favourite at the moment is Twinings' 'green tea with mango and lychee')

3: A lay in ♡

4: Face mask/beauty treatments

5: Great smelling bath stuff

6: New mugs

7: New stationery

8: Flowers (feels so grown up, hehe)

9: Try replacing some stuff you use every day with shiny new nicer versions (like bedding)

10: Purse and bag (my purse was soo beaten up before I replaced it)

11: Exchange a letter with someone so you have something to look forward to receiving in the post ^O^

(Or just order a mini present online^^)

12: new underwear! It gives you more self confidence when your underwear is nice~

13: And finally, the obvious: chocolate

87: blue dip dye and Bleach London's 'Washed Up Mermaid'review

Hey guys~ how are we all?

A while ago I decided to finally change my hair colour again~ with blue dip dye ^^

Here's a couple of pictures of the 'after'

I was super pleased with the result ^^ dip dye is really easy and fun to do ^^

Also, I thought I'd do a mini review on the dye I used: Bleach London's 'washed up mermaid'

It was £5 and I used about 1/3 of the bottle to do this dip dye

Colour: the colour is so lovely, I got tonnes of compliments~

Longevity: It says on the bottle that it lasts 2-10 washes, but in contrast to Rosé, (the pink shade also from Bleach London) which washed out mega quickly, this dye was so hard to shift and properly stained the ends of my hair light blue. I had to bleach it and it still wouldn't come off very well, it looked a kind of pastel- mint.

This is probably because the ends of my hair are pretty damaged, but it's definitely something to watch out for. I'm not too pleased seeing as I went with Bleach London specifically because I wanted a temporary change ^^;;

Although I thought the mint-like colour was quite cute, I'm really glad I didn't do my whole hair blue as I'd originally planned

Overall: the colour was lovely, but I'm not sure whether I want to use up the rest of the bottle or not, given how much of a pain it was to get out of my hair.

Also, a cheaper option would probably be to use a darker dye and dilute it with conditioner.

Moaning aside, it was really fun having blue ends ^^ what do you guys think? Have any summer hair-dying adventures planned?

Thanks for reading! ☆〜（ゝ。∂）

85: I cut a full fringe (!) and OOTDs

....ta-dah! What do you guys think?

I've missed my front fringe, although I liked having a side fringe I think it didn't suit my style as well... I think a full fringe is a lot cuter (^O^)
