This is my fifth post (yay!- thanks to all my lovely readers and followers ♥) and as five is my lucky number I thought this post should be a little different. I know 'what's in my bag' posts are hardly a new idea but I am exceptionally nosy so I love reading them and as I am quite a new blogger I think it's a good way for people to get to know me a bit better. So this is my spin on the 'what's in my bag' post. 

Record that Rocks

I love Radio One so when I'm around the house or out in the car that's usually what I listen to, Fearne Cotton, Greg James and Zane Lowe are my particular favourites. The rest of the time I rely on my iPod, its a 32GB touch third generation that I bought on ebay after saving up for what felt like forever! It is one if my most prized possessions, when I first got it I carried it round in the inflated plastic pocket, that it was delivered, in for ages because I was so scared of breaking it! I keep it now in a rather dull blue and black case. 

 The first song to come up on a random shuffle is 'Since you're gone' by the Pretty Reckless
The top five most played songs are: 
'Sex' by Big Sleep, 'Because the Night' by Patti Smith, 'A thing called love' by Johnny Cash,'Black Horse and the Cherry Tree' by KT Tunstall and 'Mr Brightside' by the Killers.
The most recently added song is 'Bear Hug' by the 2 Bears!
The highest rated song is 'I bet you look good on the Dancefloor' by the Arctic Monkeys. Enjoy! 

In The Eye of the Beholder

My everyday make up bag is a silver Ruby and Millie bag, it contains a Jemma Kidd foundation, Number 17 concealer, Calvin Klein lipgloss, Calvin Klein lipstick, Bourjois powder, Ruby and Millie eyeshadow pen, Maybelline Mascara, Garnier eye roll on and some gorgeously smelly soap and glory moisturiser. These are the products I couldn't live without:

I also have a much larger Primark Strawberry print make up bag  that contains everything else! I love the print on this bag, especially since I can't get enough of strawberries at the moment.

My nail polish collection is kept in a Jemma Kidd pink bag. I have an actual addiction to nail polish I just can't stop myself from buying more!

Glad Rags

I was unsure how to tackle this part of this post so I decided to go for an outfit of the day


One of my best friends broke up with her long term boyfriend this week so we are all trying to distract her from this as much as possible so later today we are meeting up for shopping and cocktails. So this is the semi casual outfit I'm wearing for that:

White lace dresses were a huge trend this spring/ summer particularly on catwalks such as Dolce and Gabbana and this is my take on this trend. I love the length on this dress it's just short enough to compliment the high neckline but it's long enough to protect my modesty. It's from Primark, it was around £10.

Im wearing my trusty M&S silver pumps and a vintage scarf from Blue Rinse in Leeds. I think the tropical floral pattern on the scarf is gorgeous.

Tacky or Topnotch

Since the rest of my post has been unusual I thought instead of the normal straw poll on whether something music, fashion or beauty related (or totally random) is utterly tacky or so bad it's good, I thought instead I'd show you the book I plan my posts in:

Hope you liked my take on this type of post, I'd love to know what you thought.
