i'm your little scarlet, starlet.




jumpsuit: zara
ear cuff: ebay
ring: ebay

hello lovlies!
and oh hai a rare show of the ol' cheek bone in the first picture.
i do feel like i'm wearing my pj's when i don this jumpsuit but i love it oh so much at the same time, the boys brother loving nicknamed it my genie outfit and they both teased me about it the whole day i wore it (that was last summer, i'm not holding any grudges...)
its the boys last day at sixth form today which is making me feel pretty old, i keep thinking i can't have left school a year ago nooooooooo and then remembering i'm nineteen and have to do adult things like pay rent and stuff for a house I'm not living in till september (boo)
tonight the boy and i are going to a where's wally party, not going to lie i'm looking forward to going to a party where i can wear my glasses. i got my XL red and white stripy top ready (only size in the shop but it handily doubles up as a dress) 
mama informed me this week that we're not doing anything for the jubilee, she was smiling and said thank god (did i come from this woman?!) so i will just have to make myself cucumber sandwiches and dink out my best mug in honour instead. 
love livvy

no pill's gonna cure my ill.




dress: ebay but edited into a dipped hem
bag: birthday gift
ring: gift
knee bruise: a pimms related incident 






hello lovlies!
the photographs of me were courtesy of the boy yesterday as i was at aunty jens (without tripod and he enjoys doing it), i wore the outfit the night before as well (shhh no one will know...)
anywayssss how pretty is this dress, i love floating around in it and i don't feel like i lack leg like when i wear a midi skirt. i cut it into a dipped hem (not very well) and my cousin steph rolled the hem and sewed it for me 'cause she's a mega babe. 
the boy took me out for lunch in saffy walden to a really nice place called 'kims tea', i think the best tea shops are when you have loose tea leaves and you have to use a tea strainer (this place is  favourite of grannies so it must be good, that lady has standards) so top boyfriend points to him i feel. 
we met up with steph to go for a wander the art show in the town hall (i took place in it last year) and went back to jens, ate cake, watched the big bang theory and ate a midweek roast.
i came across a competition for all you beauties who wear glasses which is rather fab. scout are looking to find the face of scout, i was featured on their blog with my entry and all the information about it is here, it closes on the ninth of june so get your skates on sweeties.   
hope you're all having a top notch week and haven't got burnt!
love livvy xo

little bitty pretty one i've been watchin' you grow.





hello lovelies!
apologies to anyone who saw this post saturday and it didn't have any writing (i forgot to unschedule it), my own silly fault!
i was at the boys about to write it but got distracted by tea, toast and getting dressed (ironic huh?) 
i've had a really lovely few days, friday i went for lunch with the lovely hester, chole and mama too prezzo and then went swimming with the boy (well more splashing)
saturday i went for a BBQ at the boys best friends house and drank too much pimms, walked (staggered) to anunty jens drank more pimms and fell up a step in front of my family (tres embarrassing)  so now a have two big bruises on my knee and hip, silly liv!
i thought i would show you lovely lot a few of my presents, (two were from myself...) 
the first was actually a present that papa got, but i have adopted it as its an emma bridgewater jubilee mug and its beautiful!
i treated myself to a new red lipstick 'ruby tuesday' by maxfactor (i wish i had the job naming lipsticks). 
one of my best friends, berry gave a this beautiful fox ring, although we were joking that it looks like the 'crack fox' in the mighty boosh. 
papa won a raffle the other day and i got given the perfume prize, this was fab because we never win anything and i had ran out of perfume (the boy loves the smell of it as well, so good show all round i feel)
i had got myself some loafers a while ago but they where too small. being a five and a flipping half size shoe means buying shoes from the internet is a bit of a risk so i finally got round to ordering a six and will be selling my other pair soon. 
hope everyone is having a lovely weekend and not hurting themselves drunkely like me!
love livvy

it's always darkest before the dawn.




sunglasses: H&M
earrings: ebay
necklace: handpicked and gorgeous 
belt: vintage
dress: gift from friend

hello lovelies
i cracked out this maxi dress that i've been meaning to wear for ages, i got given it when i did a spot of modelling for a friend. 
mama said i look very forties glamour in it so that can only be a good thing, so i enjoyed floating around the house in it all day, whilst jingling about with my necklace (so noisy when i run up the stairs)
i have been lingering about the house waiting to hear about a job (fingers crossed cause it would be such a lovely place to work) and watching too much mad men. 
being pale and pasty i have been enjoying the weather from the shade, but i am liking not having to bother  with a jacket. 
i do feel like i'm becoming a little repetitive with my blog, i do hope you're all not getting too bored with me. 
not sure why i look so moody in these pictures but i did have wind in my eyes so we shall blame it on that!
hope everyones enjoying the lovely weather!
love livvy
xoxo

hello lovelies!
well i have been a very busy bee over the last few days!
i had the boy at my house all weekend which was laaavely (even if he did have to do revision).
sunday was my birthday, so in true nineteen going on nine style i went to colchester zoo and LOVED IT. 
i fed an elephant (best bit), had a picnic in our seat ibiza squished between two boys (mama was a bit nervous when we lit the birthday cake candles, the car go a bit too warm) 
papa surprised me with a tiny bottle of cava at the car picnic, so we had bucks fizz with olives, feta, kettle chips, massive sandwiches, ect and BIRTHDAY CAKE. 
mama had made a cake with a man who had a chocolate moustache and he was smoking a pipe (she is a babe) and it was flipping delish' 
yesterday i went on a buying trip to london with jo from bridal path who i used to work for and is a family friend, i had a lovely day and forgot how amazingly beautiful the jenny packham flagship store is (i want to live there) 
wish i could have taken pictures but it was a very long day (i went to the theatre after) and my camera didn't fit in my bag but all the designers new collections are stunningly beautiful!
love livvy
