Barcelona in July

Hey guys!

I spent the weekend in Barcelona a few weeks ago, with lovely girlfriends of mine.
Our agenda for the weekend was to get some sun, sea, relaxation and bit of partying. In the end we didn't do any partying LOL. We lazed about for 2 and a half days, talked about boys, life plans, and chilled out.

I've had a rough year so far, and when I was invited, I jumped at the opportunity to get away.

Sometimes all you need is a change of scenery...

Love you,

Rachie xx














Just few of my faves...July 2014

Gosh, I'm spoiling you guys with two posts in one week!

I looooooove musicals, and 'The Sound of Music' is obvs one of the best ones ever, you can't go wrong with Julie Andrews. So just hum, ' these are few of my favourite things..' while you read this post :)


John Frieda Go Blonder Shampoo and Conditioner

1. John Frieda Go Blonder Shampoo and Conditioner
I bought these travel sizes just to test, and I love using them! My hair smells gorgeous and feels light after using, they're also gradually lightening my hair, which is pretty great. I can definitely recommend this.

2.Busy B Vitamins
I always need a bit of a boost during the day, so these really help with keeping my energy levels up. They're from Holland & Barrett, which is currently having a 'buy one item, get another for a penny' sale so go on and grab them! They have tons of Vit B plus Folic Acid, Vit C and Biotin, check the nutritional information below.

3. Birkenstocks
These are the only sandals I wear, I have flat feet and most sandals are way to flat for me and hurt my feet. Weird, I know. My feet actually feel better in heels. I've had these for about 5 years, and I love them. I will be wearing them until the fall apart. 

4. Toni & Guy Volume Plumping Whip
 I got this as apart of the Glamour Beauty Edit Box, and I've only used it once, but my hair feels great so far. 
It's non greasy and definitely gives my hair some va va voom. I shall update you on it, the more I use it. 

5. Hawaiian Tropic Sun Protection
This was also apart of the Glamour Beauty Edit Box, and I LOVE IT! It's so hard to find an SPF this high that doesn't make me look like I just rubbed myself in a pile of chalk. This lovely, goes on smoothly, smells delicious and has gold sparkles that glisten in the sunshine. It stayed on even after a dip in the ocean. I highly recommend this, oh and it's Factor 30. 

6. Glamour UK
This is my absolute favourite magazine, and I recently got a subscription which makes the mag much cheaper and it comes earlier than it arrives on the shop shelf. It's a win-win all round! It's just the best, I can't praise it enough, just go get it! :)

OOTD // Wear more pink! // RachieGirly

My name is Rachel-Yvonne and I'm a Pinterest addict, yes it's true! You should definitely join me over there, it's like this amazing place of dream-making. These pictures of gorgeous tulle skirts have been popping up on my feed quite often, and instead of drooling I decided I had to have one. 
And then I saw Kelis in a pink one and I knew it was over: 
My friend Marsha, is a fashion designer so I asked her to make me one and it's gotta be one of the most perfect items I've ever worn. Every girl should feel like a princess, and this skirt definitely works like a charm. This year, I've made a rule to embrace my femininity as much as I can, and nothing says girly girl like a big pink skirt! 



Outfit details: 
Black bodysuit - Topshop (at least 10 years old)
Pink tulle skirt - Solo Flair www.soloflair.co.uk
Nude pumps - ASOS

*If you don't want any lifting, wear a bodysuit
*To ensure no peek-a-boo straps, wear a strapless bra
*Nude shoes go with everything 

What are you perfect princess items? Would you wear a skirt like this?

I'd love to hear from you! More pics on my Instagram page: rachelyvonne 

Love you lots,

RachieGirly xx
