Black Saturday Birthday....

Hello everyone. I know it has been so long since I last blogged and I haven't been able to post anything for the whole month of March! Sorry for abandoning my blog.

Well, my pregnancy is going very well at the moment! I'm currently 33 weeks pregnant... not long to go! I'm very big and swollen and heavy but I am loving this amazing experience. I am even more excited to give birth and meet my little princess!

It was also my birthday on Saturday (30th March) and I had such a great day! I couldn't really do much since I'm heavily pregnant, but I did go out for dinner with my amazing boyfriend and family. I enjoyed it a lot since all I ever do is eat!

This was my OOTD :) I got this maternity dress from New Look and I absolutely love it. It definitely accentuates my growing belly and shows off my curves in the right places fortunately! It does make me look a little bit smaller as it is black, but I'm not complaining. Pregnancy hormones has also made my hair grow thicker and longer which I love. I am planning to get it trimmed before I give birth though as I know it will be harder to manage. But right now I am taking advantage of it :)

This was one of my surprises of the day. Birthday roses from my boyfriend! He did say he got me presents but I was not expecting roses. I will blog about the presents he got me which were NYX make up products! I'm also currently waiting for some Nails Inc polishes. He definitely knows what I like ;) 

That's pretty much it for now. So so so sorry for abandoning my blog again. I should be blogging more often now.. and it will be more on pregnancy and motherhood! With bits of fashion and beauty in between :) <3

Valentines/Thursday 2013.

Hope everyone had a lovely Valentines Day this year :) To be honest, I'm not a big fan of it myself and me and my boyfriend don't really celebrate it. We just think it's so commercial and you don't need to take just one day of the year to show someone how much you love or care for them. So it was just like another day for us. We did go out for dinner though but it was just like another fat date for a fat couple like us :)

You can definitely see the weight gain on my face now! But for our Valentines/Thursday date, I decided to do some soft curls. I think this definitely suits my face shape and adds definition to my disappearing jaw line ;P My boyfriend doesn't really like me wearing much make-up so I opted for light pink and browns for my eye make-up. 

Fattest couple of the year! Haha. I do love our outfits so we were being a bit vain before heading out that night. The top I'm wearing isn't a maternity top. It's actually still a size 8 top which is from Jane Norman. Before it was totally loose but now you can see it's tighter now especially where my bump is :) And as I said in my previous posts, all I want to wear now are maternity leggings since nothing else fit me anymore. My butt and thighs has definitely gotten bigger!

Some goodies that I got that day! A new Longchamp Tote and Select Sheer pressed powder from MAC! Two of my favourite things in life - bags and make-up!

For dinner we went to Vapianos! We got there around 6pm and luckily it wasn't that busy or packed yet. It looks like super small portions, but the dish is quite deep and I had difficulties finishing my meal! It was absolutely delish though and the prices are pretty reasonable. 

And for dessert, krispy kreme donuts! We haven't had them for ages so we decided to buy a double dozen. I was really excited to try the red velvet cake, but it was disappointing. It was quite dry and didn't taste anything like previous red velvet cakes I've had. The rest were still yummy though :) 

My boyfriend spoiling me didn't end there though. The next day, he ran a candlelit bath for me! It was very cute and sweet. I really needed it especially with the back pain I've been feeling. Luckily, my boyfriend does things like this not just on Valentines day, but whenever he can really. He spoils me and takes good care of me and I must say I'm a very lucky girl :) 

What do you think of Valentines Day? Do you celebrate it or is it just another day for you as too? Let me know your thoughts on it!
