Take a trip to the sea, let your hair run free

Over the Easter holidays I went to Wales and captured some of the beautiful sunshine in photographic form.


Mint and turquoise are some of my favourite colours at the moment, they're so fresh and bright. They match the blue sky!



Collecting shells on the beach is something I'll never get too old for, and I love the unique little details in them. 


These jelly shoes I got from Ark remind me of Cinderella's glass slipper's- so adorable! They go really well with me tinkerbell tattoo tights. I love dressing like a fairy tale at the moment. 



Sand dunes are beautiful, but as it turns out: not jelly shoes proof.


I love stealing my mum's denim jacket for when it gets chilly.



My make-up look for the evening inspired by the universe.

I've also made a new instagram, leave me your username so I can follow you!

DIY: 60's/70's style flower headband


As you may know, I am a big fan of a DIY, and recently I've been buying craft supplies and making pretty things. My favourite thing I've made recently is this headband. It fits in perfectly with this years' 70's trend, and it is perfect for summer.

Everything in this DIY I bought at hobbycraft.

How to make:


1) Buy some floral material/ribbon of your choice from a craft shop. You won't need to get more than half a metre. 


2) Measure the material around your head and cut off what you don't need.


3) Attach some 'snap fasteners' to each side of the headband. Secure the snap fasteners in place with fabric glue or a needle and thread, whichever's easiest for you.

Then it should look something like this!


If you used the fabric glue, wait the recommended drying time. Then, you can wear your headband and sit in a field of daises. Probably not though, it's a bit cold.

Have an amazing Easter weekend! Let me know what you think of this DIY!
