This Weeks Polyvore Collage

Dress - Dorothy Perkins, Blazer - Top Shop, Plimsolls - Vans, Satchel - www.theiconic.com

I made this collage with Spring and Summer in mind as I am actually looking forward to the long warm nights, being out with friends, having picnics in parks and having plenty of ice cream! 

First of all, I love this makeup tutorial. I usually have my eyes this kind of look, I think its a nice smoky/natural look, perfect for Summer! 

I think this dress with a slight tan would look so flattering! The blazer and Vans change the look to, smart/casual which I love!

I think the satchel just adds a bit more of a girly touch, its lovely spring/summer colours which brighten up the whole look.

I hope you enjoyed this post, I love Polyvore, if you aren't already signed up to it and you love fashion then you are missing out, I love putting together outfits in my head so Polyvore has made it so easy to document my thoughts in a way :) my username on Polyvore is 'ragsnroses' 

Company Magazine

I usually don't buy many magazines because I think most of them are just full of utter crap, I am not a person who is interested in reading about about who stole who's cat and about everyone's sex lives. But I had decided to buy Company magazine before they changed their new look last February and I didn't really enjoy reading through it, it seemed very typical and boring. Then they changed their cover and the entire style of the magazine, I instantly was drawn to it on the magazine shelf in the supermarket. I bought it without realising it was the same magazine that I had read a few months previous. I love Company magazine now and I have had to buy it every single month, since March last year. Absolutely everything in it interests me. They write about beauty, makeup, fashion, blogging, tutorials, nail art and they always have interviews with young and interesting people, it has no silly 'real life' stories and 'awkward' to read stories. I might just be odd but I love the fact I can leave company magazine lying around the house without worrying if any of my wee cousins pick it up and read something they shouldn't. I am going to subscribe after this months issue as I think it is easier than trying to find it in a shop in my town (which seems to be the last to get any magzines!).

This months issue is £2.50 and in some places £1.25 so I suggest you go and pick one up before they all disappear! 

What do you think of Company magzine? : )

Tumblr anyone?

Do any of you have Tumblr? If you do then leave your URL in a comment and I will check it out, I am always looking for new pages to follow! I think Tumblr is such a good get away place, where you can get such inspiration. I think it has better pictures than typing a search into Google, I often find myself going onto Tumblr to find an Image for something instead of Google. I change my URL constantly but I think that having it the same as my blog will hopefully make me keep it this time! Here is a screenshot of my page if you are interested in having a browse through its pictures :). shabbychicandtea.tumblr.com

New Year again!

Everyone always has New Years resolutions, like 'don't eat so much junk food', 'get fitter', 'keep everything neat and tidy' 'do better in school'.. the list goes on but I think that for me, my New Years resolution is to just be happier, not think so much about future at all and just live for the now and not over think life. I think that to start the year and go onto deciding to go to the gym more and keep healthy you need to have a strong and stress free head, because then you can be ready for new things and take each day as it comes. I hope everyone has a lovely New Year and I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, feel free to link any Christmas/NewYear posts you have done on your blog below:)! x

What is your New Years resolution? :)
