Purple Rain
So this purple inspired post was actually just an excuse to show you my new nail varnish! It is such a gorgeous pastel perfect, it's perfect for the forthcoming summer trend :) It's a much stronger pastel perfect in real life but the flash doesn't work in its favour lool. So back to the actual nail varnish - it's 17's Lasting Fix in Woo Me. I actually bought this colour after it was reviewed in Look and saying how chip resistent it was and I needed a new colour to wear as I've become too addicted to Rimmel's Grey Matter (Seriously Beautiful btw!) I just love how summery I feel and the fact its purpleee eep!
I reeeally wanted to show the nail varnish but I didn't want to have a post just for it, so thought I'd pick three other purple things I'm loving right now! The Clean&Clear Dual Action Moisturiser is amaaaze-ing! My mum's being using it for years but I only used to borrow hers sometimes but now my face is getting drier (booo! It's already sensitive haha) I use it everyday! Love it! So light on the skin and my skin feels really soft after :) Btw the moisturiser isn't purple, it's just in a purple inspired bottle lolz.
I was helping my sister on her project when I found this ribbon on the floor and the colour was beautiful that I decided to find something to use it for! At the moment, I have nothing in mind but might use it as a bag decoration or something. Ideas welcome!
Lastly is the delicious 'Purple Rain' Wetherspoons Cocktail that provided the title for this purple post! I love purple rain and when we go to wetherspoons we often buy thiss :) I don't have a photograph of my own of Purple Rain but I went on the Wetherspoons website and got this one :)
Hope you enjoyed my purple post! xoxoxox

Mini Haul
No. 7 Stay Perfect Damson Dream / Natural Collection Lipsticks in Rosebud, Biscuit and Sorbet / Mustard Ring / Bead Bracelets / Silver Leaf Ring / March Elle
Here is some photographs of a mini haul I bought the other week. I decided to buy a No. 7 nail varnish after I got a £5 off from Boots :) It makes No. 7 purchases more affordable! I love the colour of Damson Dream, it looks beautiful! I also have a growing obsession with buying lipsticks - dun dun durrrrrrn. Natural Collection is my current favourite as they're relatively cheap and really nourishing. And there's also so many colours! Rosebud is a lovely, pretty pink colour that reminds me of the pastel trend thats hitting the stores ready for spring! Biscuit is a more caramelly/golden colour, and it's such a different colour to my normal ones - love it. It's also good as the lipstick isn't full on brown, it's more hints :) Sorbet is actually a different style of lipstick to the others and is part of the sheer lipsticks collection :) Even though on the photos it looks quite bright and maybe a tad corally/orange its really light on your lips - kinda gives them a lip balm effect! :) pretty much makes them look in much better condition with a tiny hint of colour, love <3
I love rings so much, its another obsession! This mustard ring is so cool - It's quite big and a lovely colour with the ring bit being quite tortosieshelly in colour :) ranging from dark brown to light! I chose some bracelets with similar colours and they're beautiful - look expensive on too! The second ring is so cute and I love it so much! It's like two silver leaves entwined with gems that meet in the middle - perfect for nights out and glamming up an outfit for a meal :)
Lastly, I bought the new Elle magazine which is a monthly must for me! I started in 2010 and it's such a good magazine! I like the designer adverts too as they give me inspiration though unfortunately they do make me want to splash out on the clothes!! aha :)
Hopefully you like my purchases, sorry it was so long since last post - I did them take them the day after just took a while finding the time to upload them :(

snow is falling, all around us
So it's snowing quite alot and I couldn't think of much to do on a Saturday night indoors so thought I'd do a bit of stuff on Photoshop :) love a bit of Photoshopping ha! Well anyways a while ago I decided to change my blog from the generic 'Sweet Little Ramblings' to a more personal blog name :) I just put the name in blogger text with a little description with the aim of doing it properly soon....months later I have finally done it! I love how it's more personal now and how I've made it myself. It was actually harder than it looks to make loool.
Hopefully it will give me the incentive to blog alot more often *fingers crossed*. Also, I'm going to try photograph some of my recent purchases to do a mini haul tomorrow woo :)

ps. sorry for the christmas song titled blog post but the lyric was suitable for today :)

New beginnings in 2012
When I decided to take the plunge and create my own blog, I didn't really think about how I could make it as successful as the blogs that I loved reading. As a result I haven't really given much effort to this blog, which is disapointing and something that I continually say I'm going to change but to be honest never had. One of my 'sort of' new years resolution was to try and blog more, so that is what I'm going to do. I can't say if it will become successful, but I've decided I want to carry on blogging because I enjoy it. It's my little piece on the internet and that makes me smile. So I might be the only one who reads it, but I will continue to develop it and see what happens in 2012.

Freshertingz
Hellooo, I know I said I'd post everyday but to be honest this week wasn't the best for me to decide to blog everyday! That's because it's freshers! :D woo! This week has probably been on of the most tiring weeks ever but so much fun! haha that sounds weird, but seriously it's been so good to meet new friends etc.
So next week hopefully I can blog everyday and see how it pans out. That's all for now at the moment :) Have more to say sooooooooooooon! xxx

It's time for a change
At the moment my blog is worse than usual. This is due to the fact that whenever I logged onto blogger, I saw how good everyone else's blog was and felt disapointed in mine haha. And I really didnt like the name "Sweet Little Rmablings" anymore - it just sounded childish and just generic. So I thought I'd try and reinvent my blog. Hence a new name "The 'C' Collection". It tells you why I thought this name up in the description but soon I'll create a proper title logo with it all included. For now it's a temporary solution.
Also I was reading my previous posts and had a massive cull. I went a bit crazy and deleted the pointless posts I didn't like etc haha. New start with university and all the jazz kicking in. So yeah starting different style posts from now on and shizz. Going to try out doing some outfit posts/more hauls but still with not the total focus being on fashion. This way if I'm not as good with the outfit posts as other fashion posts such as Lily at LLYMLRS , Kelly at A Twenty Something and Charlotte at Girl Next Door Fashion, it's not totes disastous ;) haha. (sorry for the links, they're my favourite blogs) So yeah, this is a very focused post for me and sounds really professional for a blog with one follower! I still love you follower!
If any one chances across this blog, please comment and tell me how you think I could improve or what you'd like to see in a blog.
Love xxxx

Welcome to my world
Long time no see :) I never forgot about my blog, I just didn't think what I could of wrote on that day would have been worthwhile. I've kept reading the posts of blogs I follow and also having the occasional tumblr stalk. haha. Hence why I'm now going to post some of my favourite tumblr photos in this post!
I have nothing to say reaally, just that I wish it would be autumn now. The summer weather is depressing which means we have the dilemna of "its cold so I need to dress for warmth" and "its still august I should be dressing in summer dresses" aaarrgh. What are you supposed to do?!
Anyways I hope everyones well and safe (: loooveee xoxoxoxo
