Get Ready With Me: Date Night

Happy Valentines Day Everybody!!

I've been waiting to wear this dress for what feels like fifty years and when the excuse finally came around, there was no way I was passing it up - even if I have put on about a thousand stone since I originally bought it and can no longer breathe or walk or sit in it. 

My boyfriend is away with work this weekend and so rather that not see him, I've come along for the ride, spending the days whilst he's out pampering myself to the nines, (thanks to my boyfriends generous booking of a full body massage, candles and face masks galore!) and when he's back, we're spending the time appreciating being away from the hustle and bustle of Birmingham, eating all of the foods (I'll fit into you again one day dress.. I promise) and generally enjoying each others company.

We didn't want to dine out on Valentines day itself as it'd be busy, expensive and kind of unnecessary, but we went out last night for the most divine tapas of my life ( and the Sangria.. ohhh the Sangria.) It was a beautiful little place called La Perla in the heart of Bath.. if you're ever around the vacinity, I'd basically be offended if you didn't go on my behalf.

Topshop Dress & Heels

I opted for a simple lip (see detailed tutorial here) and plenty of glitter on the eye - Any excuse.
I also filmed my first Get Ready With Me video, so if you wanted to check out the transformation from wild boar to slightly more acceptable female, then you can watch that below!

What are you doing this Valentines weekend?

Whatever you're doing, I hope you have a great time!
