Holiday Luck

So

and I seriously needed to have the ultimate student holiday before I go!

One of my best friends sarah saved the day!!! Due to really unfortunate circumstances, my other
holiday plan fell through and therefore I was stuck without a holiday! BUT... today.
..Sarah and I booked a holiday to Gran Canaria in the clubbing central called
Playa Del Ingles. Not everyones cup of tea. But I would love to experience lack of
sleep, too much alcohol and too much su
n! Well at least just for a week :)
And to be honest, I cannot wait!

So because of this, I have been looking at over-priced and elaborate clothing
that could be worn on holiday in a dream land!!! So here are my choices for when I win the lottery :)
Or maybe marry a millionaire :)

The girl with the runaway heart.

Now who doesn't know the gorgeous work of Banksy, 

and especially the 'Balloon Girl, There is always hope.'

Every time I see this image, it makes me think of myself.

I am a hopeless romantic and always will be. 

I always let my heart go and dream the unthinkable.

I open my heart out to little people, but when I do, 

they know they're special.

I dream of those unrealistic moments, 

where your life turns out perfectly and you are in love forever.

Or that your heart is always full of affection and happiness,

and constantly beaming with joy.

But who doesn't dream of this???

Recently, I have been deciding how I want to be,

after all I am at an important stage in my life.

Stuck between the hectic summer of an 18 year old girl 

and the 'next step' in the world with university on the way.

So therefore I really have to decide,

Do I want to be sociable or concentrate on my learning?

A party animal, or a book worm?

Stay Loyal or be a free spirit?

Do I want to be a try hard or easy going?

Typically, a lover or a fighter?

But in all honestly, the truth of it is, that all I want to be is...

Happy. 

Thanks to Carrie for showing me this song.

So yes, I know, I should be shot.

I feel horrible, I have been working full time pretty 

much so that I can earn some summer cash.

But this has meant that blogging has been a no no.

So over the next few days, I will be catching up on all comments :)

For this post, I will be letting you into the world of Pippa 

and what has been going on over the past few weeks with outfit posts :)

This is two outfits going from day to night with 

the romance colour scheme, mainly peach :)

Topshop rouge bodysuit with matching Topshop striped mini skirt.

One sunny day I decided to get a henna tattoo, isn't it cute?? <3

As the sun's out, a Topshop nude bodycon & newlook crop top shows the tan!!

and the lovely Topshop floral playsuit with the cutest puppy ever!

Now although you can hardly see in this picture, 

this outfit I am wearing in between my two American cousins,

is my favourite of all time. Very simple, but very me.

Blue Topshop Jeggins, White Topshop Waisted Top

Navy Newlook Nautical Cardigan Jacket, 

Topshop Earings & Necklace.

Although plain with minimal colours, I really like it 

because it makes certain items stand out.

Now as jealous as I am of her outstanding blog, 

I seriously recommend that you view Carrie's newest video post at WishWishWish HERE

Honestly, its breathtaking.

So I have been pretty damn useless over the past week and a half. 

Not blogging or commenting or anything!!

But my fraud situation has taken up lots of time!

And I have been enjoying my free time :)
Tomorrow HOPEFULLY things will have been sorted out
and I can get back to blog life :)

So these are my new LOVELY shorts :)
They are made by Uniqlo and I loved them!
Although slightly more expensive then I would usually spend,
at £24.99, I decided that they would be a central part of my summer wardrobe.
I wore these last week whilst out in the sun and matched it with a navy cardigan,
gold necklace and gold earings and a white cami - all Topshop.

Recently I have been thinking about how to spend my time,

I have around three months off before heading to university!

And I get my results on the 19th of August, so until then and shortly after

that date, I need to think of fun things to do.

Im not much of a 'hobby' type person, and I would really like to be.

Some people play instruments or do sports, puzzles or collectables...

so I am asking you all -

What apart from blogging is your hobby??

FRAUD

Well yesterday I went to London,

 I didn't wear this outfit but this was from the day before,

So  thought I would show you these new EBAY shorts.

They are brand new and came with tags, from Topshop and cost me £14.99.

I love them so much and I think they will be perfect for summer :)

So on to the title of my post...

when I was in London yesterday, 

I went to a cash point to print off a statement,

and saw that I only had £46.89 in my account,

 which of course was a bit of a shock.

I went into the nearest one of my bank, 

and they realised that I had had a case of Internet Fraud.

I have had £300 taken from my account from four companies, 

one called '02 BUYNET ONLINE', second 'V-STORE ONLINE'

and two other phone companies, I hadn't heard of.

If you have internet banking then please please please check yours now,

and if you have been targeted like any of the 16,000 

that it has been said to have happened to, then call your bank immediately,

as the transactions from the fraud will continue until you block them.

I have had to chop my card up, freeze all my account and 

will not be able to access my money until next friday.

So basically my posts may not exist for the next week due to complete

confusion over what's going on with my police investigation.

Anyway guys, posts on my most recent buys (before the fraud)

will be coming soon :)

EBAY

This lovely new floral top (typical for me) was from ebay 

and its an old Topshop item!

It has a lovely ruffle detail from the neck down,

and cost me a LOVELY £3.00 with £1.50 postage :)

I've accessorised with a brown thin belt and a long necklace,

put over the top of a long yellow jersey top and jeggins :)

Also I am able to show you my newly highlighted and cut hair cut,

very short now, all chopped off at the back :)

RIGHT, as my exams are all over and done with (and if you would like to know, the last one went REALLY well) so now my time is now devoted to having fun in the sun, working and blogging :)

So be sure that I will be replying to everyone's comments ASAP :)

Also I just set up a formspring account, because it seems all the rage :)

So feel free to ask me anything...
