| Casual Attire and Non-Casual Success | 20/01/17 |





Another week, another blog post from me to you. This week has been a busy one in terms of University, as I have been beginning new assignments and receiving feedback and grades from last term. So, to say the least I am very smugly sat here listening to Loyle Carner's new album, and reflecting on my grades from last term. By no means did I get A's all across the board, but I feel particularly content with the grades I was granted, because I feel as though I worked really hard on my assignments. I did feel stressed at times, and felt like the feeling of tension was never going to pass. However, I am definitely ready and motivated for a new term full of new assignments that I hope to work just as hard on. 

I am not the sharpest tool in the shed, but similarly I'm also not completely rubbish academically. I do work hard at everything I do, and unless I put in 110% effort, I feel as though I have not succeeded, regardless of the outcome. So as some advice to you all, I would highly recommend working hard towards your goals, no matter how small and inferior they may seem, because at the end of the day, I always feel assured that I have done my best and so consequently accept my successes and failures in my stride. 



I do not know who this cat belongs to, but it was adamant on getting in shot 90% of the time.

Today's outfit is a little bit casual, and is a pretty standard look for my every day attire. I have been loving reaching for jeans and a shirt a lot of the time recently, which can be portrayed in this post. As it has been ridiculously cold over the past few weeks, I have undoubtedly been layering up to keep warm, which I do love to do in the winter months.

I can only hope that you have all had a great week, and have been pleased with your progress and achievements throughout the last seven days - and beginning of the new year. I will be seeing you all next week for another blog post, which should (fingers crossed) be with the images I have been collating on my new camera, so I am excited for you to let me know what you think. 

On a personal level, I have been having great fun with my Kodak disposable camera, capturing a few moments from my life, which I am incredibly excited to get developed, because I am fond of the unknowing picture quality and ambiguity of what you will be gifted with - most probably a selection of blurred images of random things I am confused as to why I deemed it picture-worthy.

Peace out x

| Festival / Holiday Look No.1 | 20/06/17 |

HELLO HELLO! So this is going to be a little 'saga' of looks I've selected that I think would be super appropriate for your summer holidays, or equally just as good as a festival outfit. I am aiming to make them as realistic as possible, in the sense that each outfit is something that I would actually wear on holiday, and also so that each look is relatively affordable and could incorporate items you already have hidden in your wardrobe, alongside more trend-based pieces. Hopefully, this will be a success and may inspire you while planning your own holiday outfits. I don't know about you guys, but I find it ever so tedious trying to plan holiday outfits, so I feel like this would help me! Lastly, I am going away soon myself, so I am hoping to use these blog posts to document outfit ideas that I will be able to wear myself! ENJOY. - OUTFIT - Top:  Pretty Little Thing Skirt:  ASOS Sunglasses:  Spitfire Earrings:  ASOS Espadrilles:  ASOS...

Milk it vintage

             Dress: Milk It Vintage Leather Jacket: Heeli Ripped jeans: Topshop Trainer pumps: Asos Rucksack: Fjallraven Kanken  Hey! A slow, slightly slurred good morning from me to you, but eh that's what Sunday's are for right... So today I wanted to share with you a blog post containing some simple, casual items, that actually I wear pretty often. So firstly, the dress from Milk It Vintage is something I only purchased about a month ago from Asos and I would highly recommend you take a look at their range of items on the Asos site. So it's a Tshirt style dress with large rips in one shoulder, side and chest (but not too big at the chest, rest assured). I have worn it as a top rather than a dress in this styling, however I have found that it works perfectly both ways. It is incredibly comfortable, soft, and not fitted at all. The only defect it has is that the label on the inside of the neckline is ridiculously itchy !!!!!  So anyway, I st...

| 20 Things I've Learned In 20 Years...How Has This Happened?!?! | 28/11/17 |

H A P P Y   B I R T H D A Y   T O   M E ! 2 0 ! | OUTFIT | Tee:  Neon Rose | Earrings:  Asos | Jacket: Heelys | Trousers: Stradivarius  | Shoes: Mifani  | Clutch Bag: Asos  | Saying goodbye to my teenage years today is a disorientating feeling. Seven years of the valid excuse 'but I'm just a teenager' and the comfort of not yet reaching adulthood and responsibilities was calming. However, today I teenage no more, so I thought it would be interesting to reflect and to give an insight into 20 things I have learned in 20 years. HOW HAVE I BEEN ON THIS PLANET FOR TWENTY YEARS?!?!  Please, grab a cuppa and enjoy.  1. Turning 20 years old is scary, lol. 2. University is an experience I would 100% recommend to anyone, even though it can be stressful. 3.  Sleep and your diet completely alters how you feel: not enough sleep and you become grouchy; a poor diet and you lose all motivation to do an...
