DIY floral sunglasses!

So as promised here is my DIY flowery sunglasses tutorial! With the help of Meredith's tutorial (Stilababe09) I was able to create these sunglasses really easily!

In the following picture is all of the things you need to create this look: sunglasses, super glue and the beads or cabochons of your choice. I will be making two pairs in preparation for my holiday and this is the first!

In the next picture I have already stuck one of the daisies on. I did this by applying glue to both the daisy and the glasses to ensure that it would be properly stuck on.

I did the same for the other side and made sure that they were symmetrical.

This is how the first two daisies looked and I continued to stick the others on so that each side looked as similar as possible.

This is a close up of the finished left side.

And these are the finished sunglasses! It was so easy to do and took me under ten minutes. I am really happy with the result of this pair and even though the daisies are quite large, they don't obstruct vision or anything, and if they did I would probably wear them anyway!

For the second pair I did exactly the same thing but with rose cabochons.

This pair were slightly more fiddly as the roses are small and there are more of them but I still think they turned out alright and I'm really excited to wear them!

This is the final result and after struggling with colour choice, I had to substitute a dark pink one with a light pink one but I don't think it is particularly noticeable so I don't mind. I'm happy with the results of this pair as well and although I was scared about ruining a pair of sunglasses I'm glad I did it because I think they came out really cool!

Sunglasses Collection

So I recently got an ebay package for some sunglasses that I ordered and so now I have five pairs! I dont know how I'm going to have time to wear them all but because they were so cheap I don't mind so much.

All of the following were under £3!

These are probably my favourite pair that I bought! I really like the shape of them and the tortoise shell edging is so pretty.

 I have wanted a pair of these John Lennon sunglasses for ages and I sort of bought them on a whim, not knowing if they would suit me or not, but now that they've come I am planning on doing some DIY on them that I will blog about soon! It will involve flower cabochons and a certain tutorial by Meredith from Stilababe09! 

When I ordered these I was looking for a pair of round sunglasses, because I didn't have any. I thought these were a good dupe for a pair that Vanessa Hudgens wears quite often. I am really happy that I managed to find some for so cheap!

 These are probably my strangest pair. Had I found these in somewhere like Topshop I probably would have left them, but because they were only a couple of pounds from Ebay I thought, why not try them out.

Finally, these are my oldest pair and I've have them for a couple of years now. I got them from this vintage store for about £3.

June Favourites 2013

I know it's already well into July but I really wanted to make this my first post because there were so many things I really loved last month that I want to share!

First off is clothing and jewellery! I only bought this jumpsuit about two weeks ago but I've wanted it for so long and I haven't stopped wearing it! It was £30 in the Topshop sale and I have just about managed to squeeze myself into a size 8.

Next is these shorts that I got about a year ago also in the Topshop sale for £15. They were such a bargain for a pair of Topshop shorts and they've been so useful recently in the hot weather because they are my only other shorts that aren't denim. They are a bit big on me around my waist but if I'd got them any smaller they would have been too short so I don't mind!

Next are these midi rings from New Look, I have been looking for some above knuckle rings for aaaaaaaaaages and finally found a pack of three from New Look for only about £1.99. They are my favourite rings right now and I will either wear them by themselves or with piles of other rings because I think they always look quite nice! The pack I got was one silver, one gold and one bronze/rose gold. 

On to shoes! Now because of the recent heat it means I can whack out my legs and wear some sandals. This pair are a really old pair of my mums that finally fit me after years of being too big. I'm glad I have them as they go with everything and the colouring is so nice, it also means I don't have to invest in a new pair for the summer that would probably end up being broken after my holiday!

Finally, I have been loving these nail varnishes. I went a bit mad in Boots at the Models Own counter because I had loads of points on my card, and even though these were a fiver each I got a 3 for 2 deal so I got all of them for a tenner! The one on the left is 'Blueberry Muffin' from the Fruit Pastel range. In the middle is 'Pink Punch' from the Ice Neon range and on the right is 'Indian Ocean' from Beetlejuice. I have wanted Indian ocean for so long ever since I saw Shannon from glamerdoll and vintagebeautygirls wearing it and I've wanted it ever since! I have been wearing each of these as much as possible and love them all.

Okay so that is all of my favourites from last month, I hope this was a successful first post and it's only one of many more to come, especially when I start my summer holiday and I have lots of spare time! x x x
