Hey guys!
Sorry I havent blogged in a while, but with working full time and having a list to do on my days off, I don't usually get much free time.
I will do a proper post on Graze on Friday (the start of my TWELVE days off, woo!) but in case anyone knows about Graze already and wants to sample it, I have a code for a free box for you all!
The code you need is XM7RKK6 for your free box! Just click here and it will take you to it.

Graze-ful delight!
Hiyaa my lovely people!
Hope you are enjoying your Sunday- mine is going to be pretty laid back... haven't actually left my bed yet, whoops!
This is only a quick post, I keep meaning to do a January sales blog post... I will get round to it, just had a couple of horrendous weeks at work, but on training now so finish work at a reasonable time and will have time to do it one night this week :)
I just wanted to share a code with you that I used this morning for Graze- a healthy snack delivery company that deliver right to your door. I found this code on a leaflet in Glamour magazine, for a free box, so snapped it up!
When I actually put the code in on the website, you actually get the first and fifth box free, which is pretty good!
So, if you want to see what its like, like moi, then just go to graze.com/glamour then enter the code GLAMOUROFFER. When there, you just pick the foods you like/bin/ like to try and they send you a mix in the post!
Ill let you all know what I get when it arrives! :)

tumblr!
Hey guyssss!
How are you all? Hope you are well.
So, the other day, I said I was going to make a new tumblr for weight loss inspiration and tips. I have actually done it before I forgot to do so, woo!
Ive only just created it, and haven't used tumblr for YEARS, so any help or knowledge around it would be great.
If you want to follow me, its

New Year; New Me.
Hi all!
First of all, I would like to wish you all a Happy New Year! Did you all do something fun; whether that being staying in with friends, going on holiday or a crazy night out? I had a lovely NYE; spending it at Steph's flat in Leeds with her housemate, Aine.
We had such a chilled night, and literally ate shit loads of crap and takeaway. The original plan was to watch a load of DVD's and just chill, but we only ended up watching a couple of episodes of Will and Grace before we turned them off and had a reeeeeally long chat about the past 12 months. Was more like a counselling session, but it was so nice. Had such a giggle chatting about things we have done, what we have achieved or haven't achieved, best point of 2012 and worst point of 2012. We also looked forward, about what we wanted to achieve over the next 12 months, and what our resolutions would be for the new year. We also played 'snaps'. Now, Ive heard of it, but Aine had played it when she went and worked at a summer camp in the USA this year. I apologise if there is any Americans that read this, but ohmygaaaad its just pure cheese. We wet ourselves laughing at the game, at how hilarious it is!
Now, I always seem to make new year resolutions, but rarely stick to them. My resolutions for last year were:
to lose weight - I did lose one and a half stone at the start of the year, but Ive put it back on a little bit more... FAIL.
to finish uni and register as a nurse - I actually did this, so DONE.
to pay off my student debts - aha... this makes me laugh. FAIL.
to live life a bit more - I went on a 18-30 holiday, did water sports which I never thought I'd do. Went to loads of new places, so I'm saying HALF DONE.
to take up a new hobby - FAIL.
Last night, we all wrote down what our goals and resolutions were for this year. I know loads of people think 'Whats the point, I only ever fail it'... and I did read a statistic that 92% of people fail their resolute in the first week of the new year, but you know what? Its ONE week out of FIFTY THREE weeks. If you fail, just brush yourself down, have a little cry, eat some food, then jump back on it. This year, I am determined to succeed at my goals, and I am going to be a bit more specific...
Goals for 2013:
To move into my own flat, and get my independence back from university days.
To lose 5 stone by November 25th, 2013 (my birthday!).
To carry on developing my skills as a nurse, and my confidence to say I CAN DO THIS.
To go travelling more; whether that be explore Wales, Devon or another country altogether.
To be the bigger person and sort family issues out.
To be more adventurous.
I AM going to achieve these, I am determined to. I am sick of being the fatty in my group of friends, and having clothes that could be used as a tent. I need some inspiration, so I think I am going to create another tumblr page on my Friday to use as a fitness and healthy eating inspiration, once Ive done it Ill send out the link so if you are needing inspiration this year, we can all do it together.
So come on, who is with me?!

Pre Pay Day Lust ♥
Afternoon! :)
I clearly haven't done a proper shopping trip in a while- my wardrobe is full of summery clothes, with a couple of jumpers bought here and there for my days off. Over the past few days, I have had a nosey online, which is something I have avoided for the past couple of months purely as I had no money and it was only temptation. However, two things have happened.
1. Its got colder, especially when I am up ridiculously early for...
2. My new job = fab pay days!
I am determined to get a good lot of my student debts paid off asap, which hopefully should be done in roughly 6 months since my dad hasn't mentioned rent... yet...
So yeah, I am allowing myself to make lust lists again, and I have already picked the first 3 items that I am going to purchase at the end of the month...

Curly Wurly ♥
Hiya! :)
How are you all?! I was going to write this yesterday but I was so tired after this three day horrendous training course I am on for my new job. Literally horrific. It was three days of sitting listening and death by powerpoint for 8 hours each day. Erghhhh! SO glad its over.
Anyway, I wanted to share a product with you that I am loving! AND its a right bargain.
I was out shopping last week with my mumma and granny, and nipped into Bodycare for a few bits. I dont know if everywhere has a Bodycare, but its like a nice beauty shop like Superdrug but even cheaper. Get some right bargains in there, like this product. My mum told me to get it, as it was so cheap and she had heard good reviews about it. The name of the product is 'Twisted Sista: 30 second curl spray' by a company named [Urban therapy]. I haven't heard of them before, but thought for 99p, I cant go wrong really. I have really curly hair naturally, that I like nice and bouncy but cant always achieve this, so always on the look out for good products to achieve this.
Urban therapy describe the product as:
For naturally curly hair or to revitalise permed or afro hair to give amazing ringlets in no time at all. Pop curl spray in your bag and revitalise your hair throughout the day.
To apply, I literally just towel dried my hair a bit, squirted my hair a couple of times with it then blow dried my hair. Results below...

I will say this- the product is amazing! My hair was soft and bouncy, unlike when I use mousse to hold the curls in place. Doesnt leave my hair dry or a with a layer of frizz that cant be shifted. For 99p, this stuff is amazing!* Will deffo be using this again.
What haircare products do you use? Any bargains?!
xoxo
*after looking at a few online stores or websites such as Tesco and Superdrug, the price does vary on the product depending on where you go. Cheapest place is Body Care OR Superdrug at the moment as its on offer for 99p, usually £1.99

So What, I'm a Rockstar... OOTD
Helloooooo :) greetings from a cold North East!
So, thought I would share a couple of items of clothing I bought recently. I have seen from a range of media and from in stores that p/leather is still in. I am not usually a fan of this, I always think I would look ridiculous in it being a large blob. However, I saw a skirt in Look magazine that was pleather, a dark grey/silver and pleated... I fell in love.
... It does make me feel a little like a rock star...
I have teamed it with thick woolie tights from Primark and both with a tshirt when inside and a new jumper of Inspire range from New Look, so cosy and warm. Love the colour of it too :) This is showing you avec jumper...
Oh, and excuse the awfully decorated room... Still waiting to get it decorated...
