On My Sidebar | lovemyvouchers.co.uk


So I thought I'd share with you my new fancy sidebar widget that I have installed today with you gals, as I think you'd like it very much. If you haven't noticed it's the lovely bright pink one at the bottom with all the amazing fashion brands related discount codes you can scroll through!

Love My Vouchers

My new pink widget supports lovemyvouchers.co.uk! A website offering you lots of beneficial, and money saving discount codes to lots of the UK's online stores and websites like Glossybox, Missguided, Superdrug, and Paul's Boutique. Apart from these four lovely well known brands, they cover a vast and endless list of other brands and companies that put me in a mood to shop and save at the same time! There's going to be a discount code or offer for everyone with lovemyvouchers.co.uk, whether you're looking for a gift, or whether your treating yourself to beauty products, or even a lovely meal out! There's going to be something for everyone. The best thing about the site is that you're going to find different places you didn't even think of looking! So it's a great place to be for money saving bargainistas like me and you!

As for my pretty new widget: It is always fresh and up to date, and sort of like a mini version of the website right here on What Cat Says, so you can scroll through the many discount codes available without leaving the page! At the moment I have fashion related discount codes up, but I may switch between health and beauty ones and fashion ones, so it's always worth a visit to see a little refresh for some new discount codes! It feels nice to know that I could help one of you lovely gals save a little, when you spend a little! I hope you take a moment to have a little look and see if there's a code or offer that tickles your fancy :)

Tag: This OR That?

These tags have been floating around lots lately, and I love reading them. I want to do a few more, so I've decided to do the this or that tag. :) Enjoy!

Make Up:
Blusher or Bronzer: Oh, blusher all the way. I love having the flushed cheeks look! Though I do quite like a bronzer at the moment.
Lip-gloss or Lipstick: Definitely Lipstick! I have a fast-growing collection!
Eye-Liner or Mascara: As much as I love an eye-liner flick, I can do without it. I have days were I just like to wear mascara as it really opens your eyes! So I'd go for mascara.
Foundation or Concealer: Foundation! I could live without concealer because foundation alone can do at least half of it's job.
Neutral or Coloured Eye-shadows: Coloured all the way. I love neutrals, but I don't think I could go a lifetime without brights!
Pressed or Loose Eye-shadows: Pressed. Me and loose don't get on. I only just this morning had a conundrum with a loose one...
Brushes or Sponges: Brushes. Though I need to invest in new ones!

Nails:
OPI or Nails Inc: OPI, I've not been too impressed with the Nails Inc ones I've got recently :S
Long or Short: Long! Oh how I wish they could grow to be as long as I want...
Acrylic or Natural: Acrylic. Because my long natural nails just don't happen.
Darks or Brights: Brights alllll the way!
Flower or No Flower: Flower? :P
Lotion or Body Butter: Lotion... I feel too sticky in body butter sometimes.
Body Wash or Soap: Body wash... I feel cleaner after body wash!

Fashion:
Jeans or Sweatpants: Jeans. Skinny ones preferably!
Long Sleeve or Short: Short. Long sleeves just get rolled up!
Dresses or Skirts: Dresses. I'd live in just those forever.
Stripes or Plain: Plain. Although I'm a print girl, I don't quite like stripes...
Flip-flops or Sandals: Sandals. Flip-flops are too annoying.
Scarves or Hats: Scarves because I have a lovely collection of them. I wish I had more hats though.
Studs or Dangly Earrings: Dangly ones :) I love statement earrings, especially triangular ones at the moment.
Heels or Flats: Heels. I love always feeling tall and glammed up.
Cowboy or Riding Boots: Cowboy. Though I don't have any!
Jacket or Hoodie: I used to be a hoodie girl, but I've converted to jackets now :)
Topshop or River Island: Topshop! I work there so I see the stuff all the time.

Hair:
Curly or Straight: I love my hair straight though it's curly, and I love it anyway. So can I say straight since I already have curly hair?
Bun or Ponytail: Ponytail! I don't know why but I love them :)
Bobby Pins or Butterfly Clips: Bobby pins. Butterfly clips are too visible.
Hair Spray or Gel: Hair spray for my quiffs!
Long or Short: Loooong. I'll never cut my hair as short as I did ever again!
Light or Dark: I'm soon going to a mid brunette from my dark. But I'd never go blonde so dark!
Side Sweep Bangs or Full Bangs: I think I suit full bangs better.
Up or Down: Down! I'll always just end up taking it down mid-way through the day anyways.

Random:
Rain or Shine: Shineee! :D
Summer or Winter: Summer time! I love the sun!
Fall or Spring: Fall, it's always a little warmer and it's so festive!
Chocolate or Vanilla: Chocolate. I'm a choco-ganit.
Shower or Bath: Bath! I can't help but love a relaxing soak...
Comedy or Horror: Comedy! I love a giggle. And I can't stand horrors, they literally turn me into an insomniac!

I tag you all to do this fun tag too :)

June: 10 - 16



This Week: I organised my cupboard, wore some long lost tights, and a long lost necklace, felt fresh-faced, wore a cute outfit, watched the parade, ate some candy floss, bought the boyf' a present and sent this via Instagram to my Dad.

My week has been pretty standard. I hate weeks like this, where everything is boring and normal. I did although book my holiday finally! I am going to sunny Cyprus with the boyfriend for a week, and cheekily going to Portugal 2 weeks later :)
Talking of Portugal, if I haven't mentions before, I'm going to Portugal in August for my aunts 25th wedding anniversary and it's like a wedding as well as an anniversary party so it's all dressed up, church, the lot. And as a bridesmaid, I have to be as dolled up as possible! So I've been on the dress hunt, and finally found a dress to wear, and bought it too. Its off eBay so I'm a bit nervous about seeing it but I'm pretty excited too. I'm glad I have a back up dress just in case...! I've also bought a few holiday bits I'm trying not to wear or anything like that, just because I want them to be worn first on holiday. I've only got 3 and a half weeks to wait! YAY!

Have you book any holidays or have anything fun to look forward to?

WHAT CAT WORE: Oversized Tee & Hi-Tops


Oversized Tee - Topshop A/W12
Jeggings - Topshop
Hi-Tops - Dorothy Perkins
Lipstick in Crimson - Natural Collection, Boots

This ended up being one of those tees you pop in your drawer once it's been washed, and a few weeks later or so, you find again and think: "You know what? I'm going to wear that today!". And I had that moment today with this tee. I usually wear this as a dress it's so long but on the off-chance that I may have been rowing on the row machine today at Wickes for their Big Rowathon charity event, I decided not to wear it that way.  I'm also not a fan of roll-up sleeves and crew neck tops, because they simply don't suit me. But this is an exception, and I think it's because it's more dress-like that tee-like. And though I don't wear it often enough it's one of my favourite tees, because I can wear it as a top, or as a dress.
And wearing this so casually today, I decided hi-tops were perfect to wear with it. I only have these hi-tops and then a couple of pairs of keds, but it's all I need for trainer like shoes. I'm not a casual shoe girl, but these are just lovely to add a sports-luxe feel to my outfit :) Especially on an active day like I've had today!

It's starting to look rainy again, and I only just managed to find a few minutes of sun to take these photos today.
I think it's time for blankets, tea and reading blogs.
Leave me your blog links below?

Wishlist #27


Things are going to get holiday like on my wishlist for the next 4 weeks! Excited much!!!!


High Waisted Bleach Shorts - I haven't got a pair of versatile cut offs and I can't find a pair I really like. This is the closest I've found to what's in my head. I love these from Forever 21 and forget it's around. And ended up finding...
High Waisted Hounds Tooth Shorts - THESE beautiful printed shorts too! They're so cool and I have a feeling, in for next seasons trend. I've got the holiday all booked now so I keep looking at shorts I could get to wear out in Cyprus! Excited! Eep!
Super Liner Black Buster - I've almost bought this 27476382 times! I keep looking at it, and it's big nib scares me away, but that advert on the telle keeps enticing me. Maybe it'll be my next payday treat!
Snow Leopard Bikini - Okay. Now, tell me if I'm wrong but that's a white tiger is it not? White Tiger or Snow Leopard, I'm still looking for a super-cute bandeau style bikini for this year. Any suggestions for anyone with a big bust??
Star Hair Clamp - I am in love with statement hair bands and all sorts after I purchased my hair cuff last week. I want to wear one all the time! And this one is in the shape of a star: what's not to like?
Red Daisy Print Dress - After seeing Becky of Milk Bubble Tea wearing this beaut on her blog I want it too. She really rocks it and I couldn't rock it half as much, but if I get it: I'll try!
Not A Lotta Rosie Headband - I will get one. Eventually, and this one is great for beginner crown wearers like me. I don't think I'm ready to go bold straight away!
Models Own Splash Box Set - These look so amazing, and although they look quite sheer and I'm not a fan of sheer, I really like the look of these and want them so much. I love the sparkly flakes and the bright summery colours. I'm such a magpie. I still really want the Tropical set too. Probably my most wanted set on the Models Own site.

What's your favourite Model's Own set?
