My new cardigan...
Hey guys,
First of all... I'm selling a few things on EBAY... pleeeease take a look and help me with my Magaluf fund ;)
First of all.. WHY does my fringe look wonky in pictures?? It's straight, honest! LOL! Now isn't this cardigan a BEAUTY. You know when you know instantly that you MUST have something.. well yea this was one of them. I felt kinda stupid buying a cardi when I was meant to be buying holiday clothes, but I justfied it 'for the plane ride home' good enough excuse I'm sure!
Last thing.. Girls I need your help: So we're getting T-shirts done for the Magaluf hol.. We want to do something different and funny and a little bit dirty/suggestive.. We've come up with a theme of Road Signs or like Warning Signs.. For example 'Slippery When Wet'... If you can think of any really funny ones please put a comment!
Thanks for reading everyone :) Lots of Love

My names Lowri, and I'm a shopoholic / What I bought
Heyyyy
I really am a shopoholic.. If I'm not actually buying, I'm looking everywhere for what to buy; magazines, blogs, people on the street.. everywhere there are inspirations enticing me to spend more and more money. I'm CRAP with my money.. payday comes and money goes almost instantly! If I really want something I will do anything to get it.. that's why I have 4 completely maxed out store cards and one maxed out credit card! Most people think it's silly to have store cards etc, but I cannot live without them (or so it feels). My mother once offered to pay off all my debts if I cut up my cards.. but for me that wasn't a very good deal! I know how stupid that sounds.. I wanted her to pay off my debt, so I'd have like an extra 2000 to blow on clothes, but cutting them up just wasn't gonna happen. The thought of not having them to rely on when I'm skint, and possibly missing out on the perfect item of clothing is something I cannot bare!
Retail therapy really is the best! So Payday was on Friday.. this is what I bought. I restrained myself from buying a LOT, I really am trying to keep spending to an absolute minimum!
Firstly it was love at first sight with the most amazing cardigan.. Its so so beautiful! BUT I took a picture and it really doesn't do it justice.. I want to show you all this cardigan in an outfit post.. so check back for that!
Love this blouse.. love the not so ordinary Peter Pan collar!

I've been lusting over this little beauty for what seems like forever.. but could never justify the spend as everytime I tried it on it looked just bleugh on me... BUT I tried it on with my vintage Levis.. miraculously it was transformed from bleugh to beaut!
| New Look £22?? |
These haven't photographed very well at all.. the blue is amazingly bright in real life.. maybe coz its dark outside, and my bedroom is pretty dark so the flash must have distorted the colour a tad! But anyway these look lush on, and are proper summery! Cant wait to wear them! Oh and soz for not remembering the exact price of everything.. the clothes are like 2 feet away from me, so I could go check the price, but I CBA :)
Hope y'all have had a good weekend so far... :) and thanks for reading, and soz I ramble a lot haha!

Outfit + MAJOR Lust...
Hey Hey Hey...
First things first... I have changed my URL to http://lowri-armsaroundamemory.blogspot.com/ My other one wasn't thought out very well it was waaaay too looooong! This one aint really much shorter but whatever lol!
So, with risk of sounding like an alcoholic/uncontrollable binge drinker, I am yet again in a fragile state due to alcohol abuse last night! Twas a good un though! I unfortunately ran out of time to take any pictures of my outfit last night.. I do have one picture but its so horrid!
But I do have an outfit post from earlier in the week :)
This picture kinda makes me laugh, I kinda look too tall for my bedroom.. Well, I can only walk straight (without a hunch back) directly in the middle in my room lol.. damn attic bedroom! I can't complain though, I literally have THE best room in the house.. Its out of the way, and is my little sanctuary... Love it! I shall be re-decorating soon... I'm thinking Massive deer head with massive antlers as a statement piece!

Oh, and I hope your not already bored of these shorts.. If you are you should probably never read my blog again.. as I know I will be featuring them a LOT! lol :) My top is my favouritest ever band... 'Guns and Roses,' my blog is actually named after one of their songs.. dedicated fan right there!
The second thing to show you is my biggest Lust right now... it's probably old news, but I've only recently found a real love for it..
What an ABSOLUTE BEAUTY! Was never really a fan of bright colours, it's just something about this bag.. I need one in my life please :) If you didn't already know, this lovely accessory is from The Cambridge Satchel Company
So, Thats all folks..

OOTN #2
Hey y'all!
So, once again I sit here feeling fragile after a hard night painting the town red.
I'm loving my tripod.. makes blogging life a little easier.. but I really must learn a bit of time-management, as I always run out of time to take pictures before actually going out.. so I take a few, but know that most bloggers take loads to get the right picture.
Anyway... this is what I wore last night...
Literally the BEST thing I've ever bought is these shorts.. they are the most versatile item of clothing ever.. they go with everything and are super hot.. and they were only a fiver! Result! Don't think I've taken them off since I bought them.
I wore my JC Lita's for the second time last night.. and I am super impressed, they're like 5.5 inches high and are one of my comfiest pair of heels.. my feet did burn at the end of the night, but I think that's a result of non-stop crazy dancing!
Anyway's hope your all having a lovely weekend :) I'm just gonna chill out tonight, and join in with the #bbloggers chat on twitter :)
Thanks for reading lovely's

Freedom
Hey Lovely's..
So I'm FINALLY free from exams, and it feels so AMAZING! Just waking up this morning and having absolutely nothing to worry about was LUSH!
My tripod came last week, and I have taken a few pictures using it, but I haven't perfected an 'outfit' picture yet.. I just have no clue how to act in front of a camera. I feel I look awkward and bluegh! Plus I really haven't wore any really amazing outfits.. but I will show you an outfit I wore last week.
But before that, here's a picture of a bra I 'DIY'ed , got the idea from this post on Effiesmakeupbox blog. Her bra is so much better than mine.. I bought the wrong kind of studs.. the iron on ones, so they don't have the 3D stand out effect that Effie's does. But oh well, I'm still happy with mine...
I wore it under a sheer see through shirt on a night out on the weekend and it looked really nice as I normally don't like bra's showing through but this bra was a bit more interesting! I've also been DIYing my mothers vintage levi jeans.. I obviously cut them into shorts, and added a cross using these studs on the back pocket.. They not quite finished yet.. need to hem them. Also with the remaining denim, I'm guna attempt to make a denim sleeveless waistcoat.. wonder how that's gonna turn out.... DIY post when they're finished :)
