Monday summary

My weekly Monday summary is a bit late this week. On Saturday evening I hit my head really hard and the next morning I was woken up with the urge to be sick - not nice! Things only got worse and I developed the WORST pulsing pain in my head, cold sweats, sensitivity to the light and I was sick constantly for hours and hours.

Off I trundled to A&E thinking they would do some basic tests and send me on my way, but they wanted to keep me in overnight. I had to be woken every 2 hours to check I was ok and to have my blood pressure and temperature checked.

I was just about to be sent for a scan this afternoon when the head doctor decided I would be ok and sent me home, but warned me I will have a sore head for a week or so.

I'm finding it tricky to think of 5 good things at the moment to be honest, BUT I can't let you guys down and let the negativity get in the way so here we go!

1) I'm still keeping up to my exercise plan and feeling motivated to get fitter. I feel a lot better already! - well apart from the sore head.

2) Christmas is coming - I can't wait! I have got all my presents bought and wrapped and all that is left now is to practice my trifle making! :)

3) My hair has grown soo much - I'm well on my way to target! I'm going to do a hair history post at some point. I love reading those posts and I have changed my hair more times than anyone I know - it has literally been every colour and style under the sun!

4) My Sister is in New York as we speak and I'm very excited to see what my Christmas present is!

5) It's nearly 2010 so I can start planning my holiday for next year. Planning holidays is my ultimate favourite thing to do! Do you guys have any holidays booked?

Orlando - my favourite place in the whole world!

Don't forget to check my last post to see if you were a winner on my contest!

Lots of love.xxx

My new blog header

A huge thanks to Lil for being so kind and a complete doll and designing my new blog header - let me know what you guys think! I love it :)

Lil kindly offered to draw a sketch for me and I gave her a rough idea of what I wanted; something simple that incorporated the Pugs and me. My old header used to annoy me because, even though I really liked the design, the colours and the style didn't match the background - and it used to niggle at me everytime I saw it.

Once Lil had sent me the image, Photoshop was used to sharpen the colour of the lettering to ensure it stood out.

Then finally a background colour was added and the picture was resized to fit into the template for the header, and voila!

I hope you guys like it - I think it looks great! And she has really captured the likeness of Lola (on the left) and Lily (on the right). It looks just like them!

Review: BIC leg & foot pamper kit

First things first, I was kindly sent this kit for free for reviewing purposes but I tested everything out keeping my impartial head on at all times.
.

This kit, exclusively for bloggers, is great for the party season especially if you've got the pins to brave no tights with your LBD! The kit contains Soleil Lady Gel, Soliel Scent razors, and a pedicure kit from E.l.f (eyes lips face) which includes a french manicure polish set. All of these things come in a handy pouch.

.

I'm normally a cheap disposable razor kinda girl so I jumped at the chance to try out something new. I'm normally such a cheapskate and always thought buying special razors and shaving gel was a waste of money as shower gel has always done the job. But I was wrong!

The razors left me nick and bump free for the first time ever, and the shaving gel left my legs feeling ultra smooth. The lavender scented handles on the razors are meant to provide a relaxing scent to make the experience more luxurious! Very fancy :)

These products can be purchased seperately; Soliel Scent is available at Superdrug and Wilkinsons and Soleil Gel is available at Superdrug and Boots. The E.l.f website is www.eyeslipsface.co.uk. xxx

Christmas shopping & tea for 2..

This afternoon I went Christmas shopping and then out for some tea with the BF. I wore a white Zara vest with a Topshop tunic over the top. The leggings are from Zara and so is the cardigan. I wore my trusty Uggs and my favourite hat which is from River Island.

I stepped outside then swiftly stepped back inside to add a coat and mittens - it's fair to say it was freezing in Leeds today!

I'm quite proud of myself that I ate out but managed to keep it relatively healthy - it was all unintentionally vegetarian and I just had the one glass of wine. Lovely!

I'm currently sat in my pjs watching Bones, about to launch into an intense present wrapping session!

It's nearly the weekend guys! Hope you're as excited as I am :)
