OOTD Acid Wash Jeans

Hello everyone! Today I'm going to share with you an OOTD- I've never done one of these before here on Miyyi so let me know what you think in the comments:)

Check out my MUSCLES (joke lol)

Top from NEXT

The sunglasses are my sisters bought when we were in France and so are the bracelets:)

2 weeks on holiday, still as pale as a dying fish

Shoes from Marks and Spencers

Check out these shoes in action over on another post ~HERE~

Jeans are from PRIMARK!!

I adore Primark jeans if they fit me- most of them don't because of my crazy leg shape. Top tip for buying jeans in Primark- you're not the size you think you are, I have jeans from them ranging from size 6 to size 10... These are a size 8 super skinny fit in the length but are still a tad too baggy if any of you were wondering:))

Necklace was a gift:)

I'm obsessed with little dainty necklaces at the moment both on their own and layering, I love how sparkly yet subtle this star charm is:)

The colour of the jeans has seemed to change weirdly but here's what they look like from the back:)

Hope you all liked that outfit^_^ Are you a fan of the acid wash trend? Let me know in the comments below:)

I'm going to Wales either tomorrow or Wednesday but luckily for you I have some posts scheduled to go up so you won't be without my insightful words of wisdom whilst I'm away:) I plan on body boarding and looking at castles, SUCH FUN!:D

Cheerio! Milly x

France #2 Failed fishing and Stream Paddling

Hello! Two blog post in 2 days, I'm on a blogging ROLLEEE *applause followed by tears of happiness and joy*, you're welcome everyone, 2 consecutive days where you get to read my ramblings about France. Let me know if you're enjoying this in the comments BTW just so I can see whether this whole trip thing is a good idea or not... Anyyyway lets not get off task now, FRANCE. YES. Off we gooo...

Day 2 of France consisted of getting up really late after arriving at about 12 am the previous day, going a bit crazy on the croissants and baguettes, French supermarket shopping, walking, paddling in a stream and trying to trap a GIANT hornet.

Playing rounders in the front garden, within 2 minutes the ball was lost in one of those bushes^.

You'll all be calling me the style Goddess (Dat ass doeee)

Trying to catch a fish, I didn't even fall in (obvs a miracle because I'm the clumsiest person ever in the whole world. Ever.)

I'll just become a professional photographer

There were so many dragonflies which meant I had lots of opportunities to take millions of pictures of them which increased my chance to get a good picture of one worthy of this pure class blog. You're welcome.

Me looking about 5

I hope you're all appreciating my super trendy beach shoes.

I have a way with small children. Call me supernanny as well as the Style Goddess...

The stream water was cold but it was 'chill' (get it? No? Never mind...) because the weather was sooo warmm:)

A hornet chilling with a plug. init.

I didn't even know what a hornet was until I went to France. Who knew they could get so angry and kill small children. I'm sorry but one didn't sting me so there will still be blog posts on Miyyi :P

Also on the first day we found a wasps' nest. It was in one of the bedroom's and the occupant didn't notice until the morning after he had slept in the room ALL NIGHT. I find that hilarious now, but at the time we were all very sympathetic for the horrendous trauma he had suffered.

What fun! What activities do you enjoy when you're on holiday? I love being active and trying new things but I know lots of people prefer to just relax by the pool, so please let me know:)

Cheerio! Milly x

France #1 The Longest Journey Everr*

Hellloooo everybody! So I've just got back from my holibobs in the North of France where we went with some family friends and I thought it would be fun to share with you what I got up to while I was over there. But instead of putting it all in one longggg post I thought I'd break my 13 day trip up into separate posts to make it easier for you to read (I know I'm so kind, thank me in the comments down below)

So off we goo...

After the 8 hour drive from Yorkshire to Plymouth, we boarded a GIGANTIC ferry to Roscoff that took 6 hours.

Say hello to queen Hayley (my mum, I know, she's so cool)

The sibling

On the ferry I did the worst dot to dot ever, enlighten me in the comments to what you think it is (I have no idea)

The ferry journey over to France was great, the sea was super calm and the shops were amazing (I had to stop myself using all my holiday money on perfume)

Once off the ferry it was a 2 hour drive to the 4 bedroom Gites we were staying at:)

I promise these posts will get better as the holiday progresses, pictures from a ferry aren't the most exciting thing in the world but I do like things to be in chronological order!:p

Anyway..

Cheerio! Milly

*Yes I know there are journeys which are longer (stickers for all you smarty pants jokers) but trust me, squeezing in a car with 7 people for 17hours plus a 6 hour ferry trip FEELS like the longest journey ever;) What's the longest amount of time you've spent travelling? Let me know in the comments:)

Box of OMG Review

Hello everyone! Today I'm going to do a review of the Box of OMG that I recently received in the post. So off we go!:D

So the Box of OMG is a box that you can potentially receive for free in the mail if you sign up to the website here: http://www.boxofomg.tv/ Alternatively you can purchase a mega box for £4.99. The box contains loads of cool stuff including books,toys, wristbands and sweets. Their aim is to help brands connect with children in order to improve their products.

Rocking the Henna^_^

I love the Ruby Redford wristband, definitely my favourite item from the box because of how much I adore wearing them.

The sample books

Oops I ate them...

The box arrived really quickly and I was amazed to see how much stuff you get! I do think some of the stuff in the box is a bit young for me for instance the Moshi Monsters merch, but knowing me, I'll still stick them to my walls in my bedroom...

The free sample of Skwooshi it comes with is amazing, I didn't even know this toy existed! It turns from a solid playground consistency to a liquid consistency right in front of you!? Magic, that's what that is. http://skwooshi.com/

I'm looking forward to reading the book it came with: Counting by 7s by Holly Goldberg Sloan: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Counting-7s-Holly-Goldberg-Sloan/dp/0803738552

All in all I love this box and I'm definitely going to recommend it to others. I think it's a great way to get kids interested in reading and to get them testing brands they may never have heard of! However, I don't think it appeals as much to teenagers. Because of this I think it would be a fantastic to create a box specifically designed for teens. Things inside could include make-up and accessories etc.

My favourite items from the OMG box were the wristband and the Counting by 7s book.

Thanks to Sophie for kindly sending me one of the boxes for free.

So I hope you all enjoyed that! Let me know in the comments if you're subscribed to any mail boxes eg. Birchbox:)

Cheerio! Milly x

P.S. Thanks to Sophie from the company who kindly sent me this box for free:)
