 Yes everyone, that old faithful New Look maxi dress, Primark Blazer and sandals and Forever 21 handbag!


 
 Black and white kimono, £13, Primark.

 Blue patterned kimono, £8, Primark. 

Black maxi dress, £12, Primark.


Lilac/pink kimono, £8, Primark.

 I fell in love with this stunning beaded dress in the window of Monsoon but it was £349 which is quite expensive!

 A picture I took this Thursday of the boats at Meols, Wirral. It is a pretty area right on the sea. I love to take pictures and filter them in black and white.
I am wearing Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation in True Ivory, Urban Decay Naked Palette, Rimmel Glam Eyes Eyeliner, Maybelline The Colossal Volume Cat Eyes Mascara, Topshop Cream Blush in Neon Rose and Stila Lipgloss in Jolly.

Hi everyone, I hope you are all having a good week so far. I am having a bit of a mixed one, not all good but not all bad either. I do not know if you guys agree, but life can have challenges and bumps in the road and sometimes it is really hard to understand why or to deal with them. A couple of good friends told me that the most important thing is to stay positive because even when things go wrong, they can quickly go right again too. I think it is important to talk about things of a more serious nature sometimes, because even though this is a light-hearted blog, I have known a lot of people over time (myself included) who sometimes struggle with feeling down and those who suffer from depression. I just want to say that if you ever feel that way, you are certainly not alone and it is more common than you may think. Even people who are seemingly very confident sometimes doubt themselves, even people who seem totally in control of their lives have moments when they are not sure what to do next. It is always a good idea to reach out to a friend, a relative or to see your doctor when you feel very overwhelmed. It really does help to talk these matters through with somebody and to vent your feelings. I hope that was not too heavy a topic for people's taste, but I just want to say that it is ok to feel that way and it is not something which should be hidden. I find reading, going on a walk, watching movies and listening to music really helps me when I am feeling down. 
On to other matters, I wore my beloved maxi dress from New Look with my berry coloured Primark blazer for a meeting in the city. It was raining, so sadly I had to add an umbrella! After the meeting I popped into the Liverpool Primark to browse and I got a few kimonos and a dress, shown above. Yes, everyone who reads this blog knows that I love a good kimono! I just think they look really elegant with a simple vest top, jeans, clutch bag and heels or thrown over a dress. They are so versatile!
I hope you are all ok, I love to read your comments and I follow back my followers. Let me know how you all are and please leave me your blog links! Big kisses, 
Camille

    1. Thank you very much for such a kind comment, I love your blog and I have just been looking at MAC Costa Chic lipstick on your post and thinking how much I want it!
      What would we do without Primark, it just blows my mind the stuff they have in there and the prices compared to River Island or Topshop are amazing! Thank you so much for giving me the link about the dress too, that was so thoughtful of you!
      Have a great long weekend!
