The Perfect Sunday

Sometimes you just need a quiet weekend to do some life admin and spoil yourself. I found myself home alone this weekend and spent the time cleaning and tidying, doing the weekly food shop and having some 'me' time which was just what I needed after the excitement of last weekend.

Let's start off with my outfit choice for this slouchy Sunday...

White Maternity Shirt - Topshop, £29
Black Maternity Skinny Jeans - H&M, £7
Sorry for the blurriness - I wasn't quite ready for the self timer!
I bought these maternity pieces during my epic shopping trip last weekend. I'd wanted a casual white shirt for ages and I'm definitely going to wear it after my pregnancy.


The jeans were an absolute bargain in the maternity sale in H&M. I'm trying not to buy too much maternity wear but I thought a pair of black skinnies are quite a staple wardrobe item - and for £7 I couldn't go wrong! I bought them in a bigger size to give my belly some growing room but they have belt loops (surprisingly hard to find in maternity jeans) which means I can tighten them up for now.

Now, I'm definitely not a beauty expert and in my books, less is more when it comes to make up. This is probably mainly because I don't have the patience to spend hours on my make up routine.

Lip Paint - Topshop
Bronzer - Max Factor
Creme Puff - Max Factor
Eye Shadow - Revlon
Eyebrow Pencil - Soap & Glory
White Eyeliner - Maybelline
Mascara - Rimmel
This is my slightly battered make-up collection - not in it's entirety but these are the bits I use the most and what I wore today.


As you can see, the outcome is quite natural but the red lip just gives a bit of interest and worked well with my simple, monochrome outfit.

Since I went and did the weekly food shop, it was only fair that I got myself a cheeky treat...



Cup of tea + scones with jam and clotted cream + an afternoon watching what I want to watch on TV = the perfect Sunday!
