Instagram on the web!

Finally Instagram has made an appearence online.
We all know and love the app on our phones, and then recently it became more intergrated into facebook and now they have made it accessable to everyone on the web.
All you need to do to access it is type in www.instagram.com/ (the user of your choice)
For example.. mine would be www.instagram.com/manfz !!
Once the page is open you can see in more detail all the persons photos, including a nice montage along the top of some of the most recent ones! If you log in also then you are able to like and comment on the photos as you would on your phone! You must check this out!
After browsing mine check out two of my besties pages too..

Super Dads!

In a months time we get to celebrate Father's Day, so I thought I could point some of you in the right direction of getting your daddy a unique gift they will love.
Now everyones Daddy is different and they will like different things but here are a few ideas I have found on a cool site www.notonthehighstreet.com alot of their items can be slightly pricey but I like them.




I LOVE these tshirts! They are priced at £19.75. I know a couple of super dads that would look great in these!




This is a lovely personalised gift. You get to write upto 8 lines of why you or your child loves your or their daddy. I think its especially great if there is a special something they do for their child, and it can be as random or as simple as you like. I think my daughter would love to do one of these for her daddy at a small cost of £12!




A pair of hand sewn cross-stitch cufflinks featuring little black gentleman's moustache, £18.

Now you maybe asking what I am going to get my Daddy.. well if he hadnt of already received it then it would have been a secret. My gift was a rather unique one hence why he had to have it early, i paid for him to get a permit so he can get up close and personal with passing trains on the railways as he is a keen train photographer (& a very good one). I even got him a cool hi-vis vest to wear ;).

Happy shopping!

RED HAIR!!

Well suprise suprise my pink hair lasted all of 4 days...
So instead of going straight to boring brown I thought I would give red ago...
Its taken a lot of getting used to, needless to say a few negative comments from a select few put doubts in my mind about keeping it, but I have kept it.. at least for now anyway ;)

So I used a Schwarzkopf Live color


And it looks pretty much the same as this, however Ive only washed it once since and well its faded majorly already. I had expected this as its a common known fact that reds dont last.

So before I change it to a nice boring brown I have found a few other beautys that also sport the red hair look and in my opinion, pull it off very well :)


Rihanna


Kat Von D


Sharon Osbourne


Holly Hagan

Like I said in my opinion I think these girls all look rather fetching with a red barnett
:)

PINK HAIR!!!!


Yes, I now have pink hair... :)
In a potty moment I decided to bung it on over my blonde hair.
The plan was tomorrow to dye my hair red, so I thought well ive always fancied pink hair and I had the dye so if it turns out really bad I can put the red on tomorrow..
However I quite like it... whether I keep it or not is undecided as yet.
Watch this space ;)

iPhone wallet!

I have found that when I go out of an evening I am one of those girls that doesnt take a great big bag with everything but the kitchen sink in it. Normaly I have my phone and a purse with money & cards etc. I have often tried to persuade the husband to put my phone in his pocket so I can just carry my purse instead of having to take a bag too, but more often then not he grunts and grumbles about it. But fear not I have found a solution...


Yes an iPhone wallet.. its so clever! I have ordered myself one from ebay for £2.99 in white and should be recieving it tomorrow in the post :)


I do fear it has its flaws though.. where will I put my change? Im not so sure at the minute but once I have recieved mine and tested it out I will have to update you!

Knitting is the way forward!

Knitting isnt just for pensioners you know! I for one cant knit, rubbish at it but I am lucky enough to have a mother (who has over 20 years till she becomes an pensioner) who is very very good at knitting. So much so I have stumbled across a couple of lovely patterns im hoping I can rope her into knitting for my 2 year old Ivy!


Both these patterns can be found on Etsy (I have posted the link below) at a small cost of £2.52. The seller then sends you a PDF file to your payal email account and you are all ready to knit one, pearl one! Happy knitting :)

I mustache you a question!



I mustache you a question... but I'm shaving it for later.

I stumbled across these fan-tache-tic little notepads on www.Etsy.com made by Vicentine Design.Want a cute way of jotting down a quick note? Need an entertaining, yet totally useful, gift for someone? Whatever your needs may be, this cute, little 3.25" x 3.25" tear away 50 sheet note block is just the solution. At only £5.68 with postage in they are a fab idea, only downside is they are from Canada so you may have to be patient in them arriving! The link is below for you to have a looksy!

Bordello Shoes!

Well what can I say about these beautys... erm droooooollll!!

These are a Teeze Muertos shoe with a satin bow made by Bordello Shoes.
I love the Skeletons on these, it reminds me of a childhood book by Jane & Allan Ahlberg called Funnybones. Any child born in the 80's should remember these fab books.


These are a Teeze glitter rose shoe also made by Bordello Shoes.
So classy yet I think you would feel very sexy in a pair of these.
These come in baby blue or burgandy.


These are a Teeze classic rhinestone shoe by Bordello Shoes.
You can get these in an array of colours but I have to warn tend to retail over the £100 mark.

I found all 3 pairs here:
There are some amazing shoes but they all have a hefty price tag unfortunately, but maybe for that special occasion or you fancy treating yourself you can justify a cheeky spend!
