Things I ♡ Thursday!

Hello! As promised, Im back with things I love thursday!
Im going to start off with...
Deco nails!
I adore deco nails and i always see them pop on tumblr! I dont think i could ever wear the really long ones, not just generally but when it comes to taking contacts out its a bit frightening!
I did but on a more reasonable length of nails for my photoshoot on saturday however, here were my results!
The wristcuffs were handmade by me, which leads me on to my next like..
Sewing!
Last weekend I finally had time to sit down and do some sewing after ages of having a half finished skirt hanging around. I havent taken any pictures of the skirt yet as I want to embroider or accessorise it a little better before it makes its debut! I also made this headbow from the detachable waist ties of a bodyline skirt!
Linking back to my first like once again.. Wristcuffs!
I never used to be that fussed about wristcuffs but all of a sudden i just think they can add so much to an outfit!
My favourites are the Wonder Cookie wristcuffs by AP in any colour way:
(picture found on egl sales comm, lost the link sorry!)
Pictures like this just make me squee! Oh accessories, we owe you so much!
My final like this week is brooches!
I used to spend more time on accessories such as earrings or necklaces, but recently Ive really been favouring brooches! Here are a few from my collection.
The one on the left is my favourite! And the one on the right is very special to me, it was my 18th birthday present from my Nana and its an original cameo, I dont really like the current reproductions of cameos that seem to be available everywhere, they just seem cheap to me.
Thats all! I hope you enjoyed my post and are having a beautiful thursday!

My First Things I ♡ Thursday!

Hopefully I'll be able to do these a little more often! I'm going to stick to three things I love for now.

1.) Sailor items from Angelic Pretty!
I just love the Marine Story jumpers and tops, and the dress! So cute, makes me feel summery. I just love anything nautical!
wantwantwant!
So in love with this coord!
2.)Eyeko cream!
My next love is for a product, Ive been using Eyeko's cream for years, a light layer on cheekbones under foundation makes the skin glow beautifully! I tried drinking tonnes of water, eating healthier and so on but my skin never seemed quite radiant, so if you havent got it, fake it!
I also use it as a primer under my eyeshadows and it really does hold everything in place perfectly and give just the right amount of highlight!
See that glow under my eyes and across my cheeks? Thats not the glow of vitamin water and early nights!
3.) Tumblr!
My third love of the week is tumblr! Since making my account about a week ago Im now seriously addicted! I wish it didnt break so often but Ive already found so many interesting and inspiring blogs!
You can find mine here!

Hope all of your weeks are lovely so far, the weekend soon!
