Beat of my Drum

Hello! This is Dotty P dress number two, don't like this one quite as much as the stripey one but the colour is great. I wore it to work for one day and the pretty detail on the edge has come away from the dress so I need to exchange it which is a shame but I think it's just a fault and I won't have the problem again.
I've tried all different ways of wearing my hair this week because it's been so warm in work and I have discovered that silly buns on the top of my head look stupid, pig tails are not a serious option and I have way too much hair. I don't like pulling my hair away from my face because I've got a widows peak and it looks a little odd.


Dress: Dorothy Perkins
Cardigan: Evans
Leggings: New Look
Belt: New Look
Hair clip: H&M
Necklace: gift

Thought I would include a little picture of Sookie relaxing in the sun with her Lion King toy. She has been shedding loads of hair recently so I have to carry one of those sticky rollers with me whereever I go to get all the hair off, total nightmare!


Also, how amazing is Nicola Roberts and her debut single? I bloody love this girl! Fab hair, cool clothes and a catchy song, what a woman!



Hope you are all having a fab weekend. Think of me when you are out enjoying the sun and I'm stuck inside with a horrible cold and cough!

    I love the colour of your dress and you hair looks really pretty :)
    My cat is losing lots of hair at the moment too! He always chooses to rub around my legs when I have lack leggings/trousers on and I'm about to go out, I swear he knows and does it on purpose! xxx
