LIFESTYLE: #FishFingerParty With Birdseye & Funkin Cocktails

Monday, 23 June 2014

The other day I received a huge box from the lovely guys at Birdseye and Funkin Cocktails!The aim of the game was to invite some friends round and have a fish finger and cocktail party so that's what I did!

It was super hot yesterday here in Essex so the perfect day to have an afternoon in the garden. Andrew drove the boys over and while they started setting up in the garden - putting up the posters, blowing up the balloons (which swiftly flew into next doors garden and popped) and getting to work with the Southern Comfort and Funkin cocktails, Andrew and I put the fish fingers in the oven! 

Fifteen minutes later, we brought them out to the garden along with the bread, butter and ketchup and everyone got stuck in to making their #FishFingerSandwiches! The strawberry daiquiris went down rather well as did the Brazilian cocktail mix, very excotic - and between the 6 of us, we made it through 40 fish fingers haha!

Big thanks to the guys at Come Round for supplying us for the day!!

LIFESTYLE: Southern Comfort

Wednesday, 11 June 2014


Since winning my bottle of Southern Comfort at the cocktail class event, its been sitting in my room waiting to be drunk. Luckily for me, A few friends popped over on Sunday night and it was still so lovely out we decided it would be the perfect setting for a cheeky cocktail or two. We just went with the simple one that I had at the event because I loved it so much and there really wasn't much to it - Southern comfort, lime cordial and lemonade plus a lime wedge, classy I know and so simple haha.

If your any more adventourous than me then you should upload your recipe to their Go Drink Yourself campaign for the chance to win a mug that has been shaped just like your face!

FASHION: Motel Rocks Savannah Dress

Monday, 9 June 2014

This last weekend was super hot and it was amazing! I feel like I've been on holiday all week with this weather - I spent most of the day yesterday, laying on the floor, on a towel in the sun with Molly, but I was up super fast when the postman knocked at my door with my amazing new dress! I had to try it on straight away - it was perfect for going out in this weather! It's the Savannah dress in hot pink from Motel Rocks, I have been on the look out for another easy to wear day or night time dress and this is just that! I love the bright, in your face colours and the cold shoulder aspect, I don't have anything else cut like that! Here, I have just paired it with some heels, a super cute pineapple necklace (definitely in the holiday mood) and my summery Mark Jacobs perfume for an evening look but for the day it would be perfect matched with some sandals, sunglasses and a big bag!

FASHION: Throwbacks with New Look

Wednesday, 21 May 2014

A few weeks ago, New Look contacted me to find out about my favourite dress, one that I would never, ever though away. In fact, I actually love this dress so much that I have three identical ones plus a white version because I was so worried about if something happened to it and I wouldn't be able to wear it anymore. I realise that sounds a bit crazy but I just over think things haha what if the washing machine ripped it up or it went off to the ironing and never came back? I'd be devastated, I love it that much! I just love the bright colours and the geometric cut out shape. It also fits me really well and since I have one good hip and one bad, it really accentuates that shape of my curvy one haha. It's a great length for me and with such a big cut out, it means that I don't get overheated like I usually do with a dress in a club!

Dress - Quontum
Heels - New Look
and as its with New Look they have asked me which one of their dresses fits the criteria to be my new throwback dress! I'm actually loving this dress from New Look. The print is so cute and so summery, I'd be happy to wear it all summer, then throw it to the back of my wardrobe for the winter and get it back out again next year!

FASHION: Happy Birthday Georgina Does With Motel Rocks And SpyLoveBuy

Tuesday, 6 May 2014


Today is my blogs second birthday! How crazy is that, I have been doing this almost every single day for two years today, So before I go on to today's main post, I just wanted to say Thank You to everyone who has supported me and helped me to grow my blog!

Today, also (hopefully) marks the start of going outside for outfit photos again! The background might look a little different as I have moved house since the last time but I finally convinced Andrew to take some photos for my outside of my bedroom. I was hoping for the field across the road but I settled with the garden - it was better than nothing hahah

I am wearing this beautiful shift dress from Motel Rocks today. It is one of my favourite shaped dresses. I have quite a few shifts but this one is one of the better shaped ones. It's also made of a lovely flowing material which makes it great for dressing up for the evening or dressing down for a festival or a day at the park!

This time, I dressed it up with my new pair of cleated heels! I know I'm a little late with these but I'm just happy to finally have a pair, I love how big they are and that the heel isn't insanely heavy like I was excepting. I tried to go out in stilettos last night and I'd forgotten how hard they were to walk in ahh clumpy heels are more my thing and so much easier to walk in!

Happy Birthday Blog!

OOTD: Red Midi & Demi Wedge

Sunday, 25 August 2013

Hey guys!

 I don't know if it has come across to you (maybe in my lack of posing on here) that since I've been back home from my amazing cruise, I have been totally unmotivated to do anything, including blogging. I'm not sure why but I'm working hard to get back into the swing of things.

As I was looking though my folders of outfit photos I came across these and for some reason I thought they were hilarious, no idea why but I they just made me laugh, maybe some of the poses paired with the super funky sunnies haha and I love the ones with Molly as well, So there was that little kick start that I needed to get me back into posting. 

I probably wouldn't wear this outfit with sunglasses because if it is hot enough for sunnies, then it's definitely too hot for a midi. But I love the shoes with the dress, both the style and the two colours work really well together I think! 

Dress: Missguided
Shoes: *SpyLoveBuy
 
Hope you enjoyed them as much as I did and hopefully it won't be too long before I post again!

OOTD: Super Cute Shorts Set

Monday, 29 July 2013

Tonights post was meant to be a quick one but has ended up taking me forever to write because I got totally sidetracked! It was worth it though, because I made £17 from my new app addiction - Depop, Woo!! It's a mix of ebay and instagram. It's free - which is great and you can leave your items up for as long as you want.  If you have an account make sure to follow me at @xxgeorgina18.

Anyway, finally back to the post, as I said, just a quick one! Yesterday I packed for my holiday, a week early at that! Were going on Sunday and I'm working most days until then so it just seemed like a good idea.  These photos are of one of my new holiday outfits. It's the other matching set I was going on about a few weeks ago which my grandparents bought for me, which cost a grand total of £10 - total bargian hunters! I love that it's a shorts set and that they were an easy material rather than denim, hopefully will be confortable for walking around in the sun and eating lots.

Not sure what's going to happen to my blog while I'm away, if anyone has any ideas or thoughts on guest posts, let me know!!!

OOTD: Checked Midi

Sunday, 14 July 2013

I am such a midi person, I just love them. My favourite thing about them is you put on the dress and that's it, your ready to go out, that's also a good excuse to get one in every colour and pattern - I love to have lots of them in all different prints. 

This is the newest one to my collection and it's maybe the most outragious but things like that don't bother me, I like big prints! I love this print in particular as it reminds me of my younger days when I used to be a little bit scene and wear my checked vans everyday with my green hair and MCR hoodie Uh-ho hahah 

My midis get the most wear when in the evening when Andrew and I go for dinner - that's what we were to do here (after going back to his so he could get changed!) Going out for dinner night are our favourite and we try to have them as often as possible haha.Yum!

I paired the dress with my favourite new demi wedges which I have been going on about for ages on twitter and instagram but I finally got my hands on a pair and they go with everything!!!

I'm not sure why my photos have gone all blurry all of a sudden :(

Would you wear this kind of print?

OOTD: Matching Aztec Pastels

Wednesday, 3 July 2013

I've been wanting to get myself a matching set of somthing for months now and then all of a sudden I get two on the same day. woo.

This set, my mum bought for me as part of a present for doing well in my exams. She got it a few weeks ago when we went to Basildon, shopping with my grandparents. We don't go there that often because it's a bit of a trek but my grandparents love it there so we just tagged along. They have a primark, a topshop and a river island so its all good.

This outfit, on the other hand, was quite a different buy for us. You know those cheap shops that knowbody ever really looks in because they all sell kinda the same cheap stuff? Well we looked and found loads of these amazing matching sets. We bought this set in the first of these shops but after a little wander around the centre I realised that there were hundreds of these shops all selling the same thing in different patterns. It was so exciting!

I love the aztec print of this set, the pastel colours, and the midi/crop shape. As well as this set from my mum, my grandparents got me a shorts and crop set in black, white and pink which I'll show you in a few weeks. They are both going to be amazing for my holiday in a few weeks as we are going on a cruise, so this one especially will be great for dressing up in the evening.

I paired the set with my favoutie new shoes from Spy Love Buy. They are so cute, they are my first pair of black sandal heels and I love them. You all know I'm a huge fan of the brand and if you like them too,Click here to enter my giveaway hosted by them!
