pink peony frock + an exciting giveaway!

Monday, April 15, 2013


Hello all! Wow, it's been over a week since my last post (how ridiculous, where did the time go?!). A lot has happened since I updated last... including my new hair colour! My natural hair colour was growing tiresome and I love this change a lot! I think dark brown suits me a lot better. I've been getting a few kind emails as well from people asking how my medication is going. The answer is wonderfully! The first week was pretty awful as my body wasn't used to the drug overload but the side effects seem to have subsided for now and despite not seeing any improvement in my skin yet (I'm on a low dosage to begin with so this was expected) I am feeling pretty confident. I also went back to school today and it was quite nice to be back, although I am absolutely petrified of the work load for this second term (I'm not sure how Avenue M will cope).

Anyway, onto the exciting news! I've been partnered with Oasap for a little while now and last year I was sent the prettiest bag ever that many of you were dying to get your hands on. Well, Oasap sent me an email to let me know that my readers could win a piece from Oasap (and one of them was the dream bag!). I'm so excited about it. All you have to do to enter:

Simply make an account with Oasap here and comment below with your email letting me know you've done so. 

If you'd like to throw in a few extra entries, you are welcome to like my Facebook page, Follow me on bloglovin or Instagram. You can enter up to four times, just make sure with each entry, you leave a separate comment :)

A few little extras: This giveaway will close on the 29th of April and I will select the winner using random.org. 
If you win, I'll be sending an email your way with a list of things you can choose from, so if the bag sells out before then you will have lots of other pretty things to choose from!

I LOVE your new hair colour! Although I did love your natural hair too, you are just so gorgeous that everything looks good on you!
Good luck with all of the school work, I am totally overwhelmed with uni work at the moment :P
