#40acts ...Lent With A Twist!

 

 

Hello everyone, hope you are well!

 

Today I thought I would share with you something very exciting happening which starts in the next few days (whilst also showing you my creativity of the day in the form of my own little logo!). It is something I recently signed up to and so can you, (I will put a link at the end) called '40acts'. It is basically where along with giving up whatever you choose, or in my case don't always choose, to give up for lent you also give back, do good and give generously each day.

 

It looks like such an amazing opportunity because each day over lent they pop an email in your inbox with a challenge to help you achieve your 40 acts. They don't give much away on their website as to the challenges but there is definitely cupcakes involved so no one's really complaining! You can share your acts on their twitter and instagram and also have a nosey at what other people involved have done.

 

If you do get involved then let me know as I am going to try my hardest to blog my way through the 40 acts to maybe inspire you to try some yourself. I hope to blog every 2/3 days with updates on how it is going and what I am loving about the different tasks as well as the challenging bits...well they are challenges after all!

 

Here is a link to get involved, it is going to be SO much fun!

L'Occitane Almond Milk Concentrate.

 

And I'm back...It has been a while...a very long while, but I am back and ready to post awayyy!

 

I thought I would start of by sharing with you a product I have just discovered and am a little in love with. The L'Occitane Milk Concentrate with almond milk is a slightly pricey but very much worth it body lotion. It's not often I get excited about a body moisturiser it is one of those things I just choose

HR 4.5 Fun Run!

 

 

First of all before I launch into my major excitement about my first race! Just a quick apology...I wanted to update my blog more regularly than I have been, but since I've been back at school with my blog for the first time I have found it hard to update when I want to. BUT do not fear Sarah is here to save the day... or in other words make a plan so I can fit it in with the joy that are exams hahaa. Anyway apology over with (I hope you forgive me :P) onto the HR4.5!

 

So last Wednesday (17/04/2013) I took part in our college's FUN RUN called the HR4.5 (very imaginatively named as our college is called Hills Road and it's 4.5K hahaa). Usually I'm not much of a runner in fact I always seem to be trying to get out of running but I thought it was time to experience a charity run :) I didn't do much training just a run here and there over Easter so I at least felt a little fitter hehee but I knew I definitely wouldn't be running the whole thing with the little time I had after I signed up. 

 

Chi Chi London Wishlist.

So recently I discovered a lovely dress brand called Chi Chi London (You can check out their website here http://bit.ly/ZQGeDd ). They sell a range of luxury dresses that are perfect for any event and season at very reasonable prices so you are bound to fall in love with at least one...or a lot more in my case! When I found out etailPR had a competition to win £200 worth of vouchers to spend on my long wish list of dresses I got a little...VERY excited! (YOU can enter too all the details can be found here http://bit.ly/13cDE2d)

I have chosen a dress from each of the sections on the website so I hope you enjoy looking through my wish list and I would love to see yours! (Tweet me your wish list!)

 

 

   

     

Bandage Dress - Jacinta Dress £119.99 (http://bit.ly/10bYbU2)

 

The first section on the website is the Bandage Dresses which are not the sort of dresses I would usually go for but I really like the design on this dress. I love the sweeping pattern which makes it such a statement piece for any wardrobe. I also love the monochrome colour scheme and think it would look so cute with a pair of black heels for all those summer parties!
