Going Dotty

Hello everyone, long time no blogging!


Sorry I have been rather down the last couple of days so I was a 'bad' blogger plus I have a sore throat.

Today hubby had to go into town to pick up his suit for his brothers wedding next Saturday so I went with him and had a little browse.

I bought this dotty dress in H&M. I really love it as it sort of reminds me of 1940's style dress.  Plus dots are meant to be big this season. 










 I also bought a navy blue longline vest top, in fact its so long its like a dress.
In Primark I took a couple of things back but was most disappointed with their stock.  However I did buy these hair bows, the red looks lovely with dark hair.


I also bought some Palmers Cocoa Butter Natural Bronze, which is a moisturiser with fake tan.  I will do a review of this sometime soon.


I went for 4 interviews last week, two of them I have not heard from despite them telling me they would definitely get back to me by yesterday! One of them I was told I did not get (the part time one) but one of the ladies who interviewed me said my interview and test were brilliant and it was only that they had one person who had a healthcare background and so thats why I came 2nd. It was brilliant feedback and I got the feeling the lady was genuinely regrettable that I was not chosen as I had a great rapport with them.
The other job I will not hear about till next week.


Anyway I hope all my followers are ok and sorry I have not been blogging much of late.

    Sorry about the jobs, however it sounds like you interviewed very well so don't give up!

    Like the dress, it looks very you. Bet you look great in it. Looking forward to hearing about the cream. My tan is fading far too quickly!

    Good luck with hearing back from the jobs!
    I went to Primark yesterday and I agree I was not very impressed. I came out having spent less than a tenner on a bracelet, plain tee, a ring and a pair of tights! Not very exciting hehe xx

    Sadie - oooh I would like to see which dresses you bought.

    Jules- Do you know I was thinking it reminded me of someone with really blonde hair wearing it and I could not think who it was..I was thinking Pixie Lott but now I realise it was the lovely Gwen Stafani! x
