A Chatty Catch-Up | July 2019

Well there goes July 😬😬 We’re now thoroughly into August and it’s my birthday month. Woo!! I’ll be 35 so let’s mention that as little as possible 😂😂

Anyway, we’re not here to talk about August, we’re here to talk about July so, here’s what I got up to!!

Food:

I had a lovely evening out with my friend, Sammy. We went to Bus Stop in Brighton (North Road) and it was amazing!! I went for the 3 piece Bajun chicken with a macaroni pie side!! We had such a lovely catch up and, because we love being little old ladies, I was back home and in pyjamas before 8pm 😀

I also had some slaw with mine and ate Sammy’s corn on the cob (who had gone for a quarter of Jerk chicken with macaroni pie too). Oh and we shared some spicy fries too 😀

Purchases:

Mum, if you’re reading this post, LOOK AWAY NOW!!

I got another tattoo to celebrate turning 35 in August!! I went to see the incredibly talented Jose (lemat.tattoos) at Heartbreaker Tattoo in Brighton 🖤🖤

I also got this dark and twisty sticker pack from Dorkface!! It was the bite me sticker that won me over but I have no idea where I’m actually going to put them lol

I also bought a cute little lacy bralette from ASOS. I originally bought a 12 and a 10 to try but they were both a little too big so I ended up sending them back and swapping them for an 8!! Thankfully it fitted perfectly and I think it looks super cute 😀 I won’t actually wear it as a top, but will wear it underneath strappy tops 🙂

Blogging:

Rachael and I had an amazing time this month doing an escape room!! I was positively rubbish but we had so much fun 😀 If you want to see how we got on, I wrote a review post on it!

I was also meant to go to a Kiss event at Brighton Marina to check out their new summer range, but unfortunately I wasn’t feeling too good so I ended up having to miss it 🙁 However, as I wasn’t able to make it, the amazing team at Alex Silver PR sent me a little parcel filled with a selection of their new nails and lashes 🙂 Thank you so much 🥰🥰

I also had a couple of days off near the end of June so I thought I’d be productive and actually take some blog photos of some products I was sent ages ago so I can actually get the reviews up soon!!

The best of the rest:

I was very kindly contacted by Frankie at Infinity Nails who offered to give me a lovely gel mani 🙂 I went for a gorgeous subtle pink colour (as I was going for a job interview that I didn’t end up getting. I knew I should have picked a brighter shade lol). She’s super lovely, so if you’re looking for somewhere in Brighton for gel nails, I’d definitely recommend her 🙂

Finally, don’t forget to check out my amazing July advertisers:
