Pretty Pink and Gold things.

Story time.

A week or so ago, at work, I wasn't having a particually good day and I just needed to go off and spend half an hour to myself. Anyone who works in retail will tell you, as much as you love your job, there's always a day where someone may not have been nice to you or you keep messing up.

Just stepping away to breathe can do wonders.

On this occasion I decided to go to primark.

I recently lost my gold Casio watch, I'm sure it's in the flat but I cant find it and I'm running out of places it could be. I'm quite sad about it really. It was a christmas present after all.

I was becoming annoyed at looking at my wrist day after day so I went and bought a cheap watch until I find my proper one.

As I was walking around the jewellry section I came across a small selection of watches, most of them fairly ugly, bulky or over engineered. Then I saw this one near the back.





I honestly cannot think of a prettier combination of colours than pink and gold. It's slowly becomming an obbsesion of mine, to be honest, any metallic between gold and copper with a pale sort of pink and I'm yours. So this was perfect. It has a thin, faux leather strap that is pale pink. The watch face is very pale with washed out water colour flowers. I really love the simple design of it.


I still had a little time left on my break so I nipped into boots. Sometimes when I'm a bit down I like to buy myself a new nail varnish. Barry M is a favorite haunt and they've recently done a limited edition nail varnish with boots. To my absolute delight it was pink and gold.





The shade is called 'Golden Sands' it has a semi matte finish. with one coat you get a very sheer clean look with three you get a lovely opaic pale sparkly pink that would be great for making a tan pop.


So all in all I'm fairly happy with my purchases. It just shows that a little retail therapy can work wonders. Just a little of what makes you happy, in this case, pretty pink and gold accessories can boost your mood and remind you that sometimes you just have to do you!
