hat - next/ jacket - h&m/ cropped tee - topshop/ shorts - debs/ shoe - primark

New hat from next £10! Although I may be spending I'm still kinda keeping to my pledge. This is a new tee which somehow I managed to wangle(?!) from topshop sale. Which btw was an absolute farce. I got an email to my phone about the sale. So ofc headed straight in and managed to pick up a few nice bits; But I couldn't get online that night because my friend's internet was so crappy. So I raced home in the morning before work to get on. I had 3 things in my basket and as I preceded to checkout. Each item disappeared and in the end I had nothing. BALLBAGS!

Thank you to my lovely boyfriend for this pictures. It was sunny after work today. So we went for a walk down country lanes. I kinda live in the country...not too country; but country enough.

Excited to go to Birmingham this week though.

round midnight







dress - topshop/ hat - (charlie's diy)

Hey, this is how I spent valentines day me and my friend charlie cooked for each other, he's off travelling in 2 weeks, it was super sweet actually. He made me some Indonesian noodle dish and I made him apple stresuel, which he text me about devouring this morning.

Also wear THE topshop dress, really should have got some better pictures of it. My boyfriend bought it for me for valentines day, and if I say bought it for me - what I really mean is, after finding out that it was sold out online, that as soon as I got to london, I went to Oxford Circus at .8.45pm demanded to know where it is was. I had the sweats. serious.


If you're wondering why I didn't spend the day with my boyfriend, whose name is Liam btw, it's because he's busy skiing all week :( skiing is such a middle class thing; but then again so is blogging?

i've had a really nice weekend and just thought to so you a few pictures taken this weekend in ldn, where i attented a bloggers meet which cool and different luckyily i already knew sian, who's in the picture with me, she from the same town and I've never really spoke to her that much, but it was cool to hang out, oh how we shopped, but also spoke frankly about blog = a ling.

I borrowed my friend charlie's camera its an 1000d and look at the picture quality!

neither particularly appeals to me.

coat - thrift/ hat - river island/ shirt - thrift/ ring - h&m/ belt - vintage/ shorts - miss selfridge

Somewhat picture heavy today but at least the quality is much better than yestreday offering.

This is a new shirt it's 90's newlook and I kinda love it. If you follow this blog you will know that i am a massive fun of leopard print. As testament to this, my boyfriend says that whenever we are in a shop of walking and I spy anything leopard print, I find that it is only duty to go and inspect. What can I say ? I'm trashy. But I can help it. I picked it up in my favourite charity shop when I went to town on Monday, it was only £1.25 as they were having a 1/2 price sale. Now what charity shop do you know that has a sale? I pick up 3 other garments which will be sure to make their way on this blog soon.

Plus basically I'm wearing summer clothes but with tights; I'm pretty sure I've done this all winter; but I'm struggling to envision my perfect summer shoes, atm I'm imagining rope heeled espardrille from primark (£3) I wanted some last summer but they were all out of my size..

Last pic to prove I do step outside and smile its not just hearsay, bf's garden.

kimono jacket - matalan/ joy division tee - ebay/ jeans topshop/ lace up wedges - h&m/ gold cuff - miss selfridge

Not a particular well coordinated outfit but I wore it for one my friends birthday drinks, the kimono is new and bought in the sales. I kinda love it; it wasn't something I wanted prior but I just spotted and at £8 was a major bargain.


RESOLUTIONS

For the majority of just I think resolution will be hot on our minds and I've been thinking about my for a couple of days;

- READ. READ WELL AND FAR. this year I want to read at least 30 books, which on average should take me 1 1/2 weeks each. and that something I shall hopefully be documenting on my blog. Books can be so entertain, frightening, thought provoking and I haven't had that in while. But I do look forward to eat.

- TAKE BETTER CARE. of my self over. IT may be digusting but this starts with showering more. I think I have a slight phobia of getting we. I think generally since I've had more time on my hands this has happened; but there is even more pampering to come.

- TRY HARDER. at blogging of course. I had a little downtime during christmas because I work(curse) in retail. and Presently I still do but that doesn't mean this blog shall suffer. At least I can promise you one thing i will never borrow content. this isn't tumblr. this is blogger. I will comment more. DEAR 34 FOLLOWERS I APPRECIATE YOU ALL!

- LEARN. to drive; I'll be honest I only remembered this one yesterday whilst my friend was driving me about. This should really do; it presents at challenge to me and gives me something to work towards; I don't want this year to just slip away from me. Just because I'm not going travelling.

- VISIT my friends! the real ones. I already have a trip planned to Manchester for feb. I still need to go to cornwall; brighton and brum. which i will!

- LOSE. weight and hate. I'm not particularly on the larger side I just want to be a tidier; you cant fault me for that. I should use that gym membership ma mere is paying for. starting next week... weight is such a sensitive issue no ? I don't want to be angry or hate; it waste so much energy which probably isn't even felt by the other side.


So here I am wish me luck.

hang the dj


Knitted dress - Primark £5 / Velvet leggings - Primark £3 / Nude kitten heels - Primark £4/ Over the knee sock - Primark £2.50 / Tights - Primark £2.50 / Orange lip gloss - Primark 50p / Purple eyepencil - Primark £2.00 / Black wool fedora - River Island £4.99 / Studio fix fluid NW45/Studio fix concealerNW40 - Mac

Yesterday my boyfriend and I went to oxford, unfortunately I forgot my SD card in my laptop (smarty pants), so I couldnt take any pictures; but I'be had such a nice day, infact I've had such a nice weekend.

Dont look at me like that! Nude...Patent...Kitten heels, I don't know what wrong with me but i love them, they look so ugly they're brilliant and as I told my boyfriend I will wear them anywhere and everywhere!

Truth be told i didnt actually pay for the leggings and dress, not because I'm a tea - leaf, but because the cashier didn't them, I did think it was cheap, but didn't actually check the receipt till I had left the store, oh well. And the hat was so cheap because they mistakenly put at £15 off sticker on it when it was only meant to be £10 off, but I'm not complaining...

My boyfriend was nice enough to buy to the foundation and concealer for me...too nice; I start my induction at Next in 2 hours and I haven't even showered yet.

hand it over





top - topshop(borrowed)/ shorts - thrift

I took these yesterday to show you this amazing top, I borrowed it from a friend with an AMAZING wardrobe, and you know what? she hadn't even worn it just, i thought it was gorgeous, i love the embellishment and the bugle bead detailing it amazing. I need my own!

I mentioned a coule of weeks ago I went to a jumble sale, these shorts are just part of the fruit of my labour they were diyed from trousers, but even still, they were only 25p. I managed to get some in white and blue denim. All whilst the bf sat in the car, dont worry I tell my self it better that way..

I finally have some pictures of my room but today I'm off to see Harry Potter!

bang, bang, bang




necklace - new look con/ top - topshop/ jeans - topshop/ faux fur - thrift/ boots - tesco

The top is all I got from the last Topshop, its khaki and comfortable. needs must. Plus i just couldn't find anything nice. This is a necklace i bought with all from the last post; it was only £2, ive been wearing it quite alot, it has black ribbons so its a bib necklace. I look crazy...

I took this last night before I went to see my boyfriend, and then go to the gym, im turning into a pudding. An actual pudding, so I'm trying to get fitter so I'm less pudding like. Which means more gymming and more walking and may even include a lower rate of consumption. I promise nothing.

So really I should have posted these last night but I went to bed at like 10. Yeah, I know. But whilst I'm writing this I really should be filling in personal details - I got a job at Next and this has to be in this morning;
finding suitable recipes - my boyfriend and I are cooking dinner for his parents tonights; locating room inspiration - my boyfriend moves into a house in 2 weeks times, so we are decorating and going to Ikea this afternoon. All in the next hour, excuse the pun.

enjoy your day
