Best Sunday EVER!
I was invited to go to Wembley today to watch the Stoke v Bolton match with VIP tickets to the FA Club.
We had a sit down three course meal (amazing steak!) and I was on the pundits table with Jason McAteer, Mark Clemmit, and Jim Rosenthal (you may have seen his son in Friday Night Dinner?!) and my lovely work colleague who invited me.
On the table to my right was Tom Parker from The Wanted, and right opposite me was...wait for it....Declan Donnelly (of Ant and Dec!) Ben Shepherd, Ricky Hatton (Boxer) with, drumroll....PADDY MCGUINESS!
(My colleague Jon with Paddy on the left and Jason McAteer on the right)
I was expecting to see Danny from McFly as he is a massive Bolton fan but sitting directly opposite Paddy McGuiness actually made my day, as I have mentioned before I am a HUGE fan of Take Me Out (No likey, no lighty!!) As luck would have it, Jason McAteer is BFFs with Paddy, so he called him over for a paparazzi session :D
jsjhs;kgjhdkh. Couldn't stop grinning the whole day!

Saturday night at the movies (and a favour)
It's finally the weekend - woohoo!
Been an absolutely hectic week at the studio where i work, broadcasting three major football tournaments - Champions League, Europa League midweek and FA Cup across the weekend, as well as arranging camera crews for shoots to interview Gary Lineker, Alan Shearer and Arsene Wenger. Very very glad to have a couple of days to recover from the madness!
So lovely ladies...I am requesting a favour. I am in the final stretch of finishing my MA Marketing dissertation on cosmetic companies and their use of marketing communication. I've compiled a very short questionnaire to gauge the trends of men and women aged 18-25 and where/what/why they buy cosmetic product-wise.
If any of you happen to have a spare five minutes at all and feel like participating (it is entirely anonymous) then please email me (hollyelizabeth26@hotmail.com) and i'll send it over to you. I'd be SO so greatful. My deadline is on Tuesday...can't wait to have it over and done with for good!!
Thank you :)

We're all going on a Summer holiday
Sorry for the disappearing act!
I have been making the most of the gorgeous weather and have barely been on the internet at all....except to book my Summer holiday!
I am SO so so excited. I am going back to Tenerife (toyed heavily with the idea of going to Marbella but all of the amazing deals we were looking at kept going up and up in price whilst waiting for my friend to be granted her holiday from work) so we have managed to find a pretty reasonable deal for a 4* hotel in beautiful Los Cristianos, Tenerife.
I've stayed in Los Cristianos twice before, both times at the same hotel so it will be nice to experiment with somewhere new. We are staying in an aparthotel..has anyone stayed in one before? Is it any different to staying in a regular hotel room??
A few reasons why I love Tenerife...
Glorious weather
Enormous Fernando Torres to oggle at!
Hello Kitty heaven
Gorgeous sights
Dolphins!
Where are you off to on your summer hols?

The sun has got his hat on
Hottest day of the year, woohoo!
Had a very pleasant day at work today; everyone was in a lighthearted mood which made working much more fun, went for pub lunch and a cheeky glass of blackcurrent cider with my boss at lunchtime, ate chocolate brownies in the sun, the elusive Alan Shearer actually spoke for once instead of hiding in the dressing room, and i got to wear something Summery. yay :)
SO bored of winter wardrobe.
I wore...
I have this dress in grey which iv blogged about before but love it in camel. Wore it with tan tights, gold jewellery, and my new River Island bag.
Can't wait for it to be properly Summertime after this taster today!

Idiot...
I got my first parking ticket today! :(
Not a happy bunny, as I did infact put a ticket in my window, i just put it in upside down by accident haha. Blonde much?!
£25 pounds worth of expensive mistake. Could have bought something pretty with that money!!
ANNOYING!

Spree!
It's been a while since I have really let loose in a shopping centre, but a trip to Romford with my mum resulted in many a purchase being made!
These are my favourite purchase of the day. I never in a million years thought I would be besotted with a pair of sandals, nor did i think i would ever spend a lot of money on sandals, however i couldn't leave the shop without these in my posession!
River Island - £40
Another River Island number that I could not leave the shop without! I thought this would be perfect for work in the summer as it is very smart yet summery (and would like nice with the above sandals!)
River Island - £39.99
Now I am not much of a bag person but i adore this bag!! Again I thought it would compliment the above outfit nicely!
River Island - £36
I don't get to use my car that much as Im forever at work but when I do get to use it I like it to look pretty and girly. Saw this cute air freshner at the till so thought i'd pick it up!
River Island - £Cant remember price
Cant go wrong with plimsoles for summer
Primark - £3
I never ever normally buy anything like this but was really drawn to this pretty floral skirt. Its high waisted and with a loose fitting floaty top (like the one below) tucked in loosely it would be cute for the summer.
Primark - £8
I figured this plain yet cute scallop detailed top would come in handy for summer
Topshop - £15
I kept seeing these nude bodycon skirts in the shops but they always had a black exposed zip at the back and i just couldnt comprehend it...but managed to find this skirt (originally from Topshop) on Ebay..without the black zip! And at a fraction of the price :)
Ebay - £12
So that is my bank card officially exhausted this month, no more shopping for me until next payday!
Hope you've all had a lovely weekend. I've been working all weekend but have tomorrow off, hurrah! Will be getting my car cleaned, going for a spray tan, and attending Zumba :) Woop!
