| Heeled Ankle Boots Are Essential | 10/02/17 |



As a student, money can evidently be pretty tight, and affording high quality items of clothing can be a real struggle and an uncommon occurrence. I am terrible for spending money I don't have on jeans and tees that I could definitely survive without, but there is something quite exhilarating about treating yourself to something you've been wanting for a while, and rushing to the front door when the delivery man drops off a parcel of goodies. 



I have more recently struggled to find anything I like and when I have ordered things 9 times out of 10 I have returned them because they've just not been right. I think this is most probably due to the fact online stores and shops are preparing for their new spring arrivals, so the shelves are slightly sparse. But, I did find an absolute gem of a pair of heeled boots on ASOS a few weeks ago - yes of course they're ASOS, I'm addicted. SOS!


So these ankle boots are by the brand Office, which are a well known brand for shoes yet one I have never thought to buy from. I was scouring ASOS sale section and discovered these bad boys discounted from £75 to a cracking £24 - bargain. I have been on the hunt for a pair of black heeled ankle boots because I purchased a pair back in October which I have worn endlessly. The only problem I was having was that the perspex heel on them are a little too adventurous to wear on a day-to-day basis, well for me they are anyway. I wear these boots on almost every night out because they're just so comfortable and I never feel the urge or pain of needing to take them off half way through the night, so I really wanted a pair I could wear during the day time.



These boots are beautiful, in my opinion, and are perfect for 'jazzing up' a simple outfit during the day. They are not as comfortable as my ASOS ones, however they're stunning and so I'm pushing through to wear them in a little bit - don't mind if I do.

As displayed in this outfit ensemble, they look great with jeans, especially straight leg/mom/boyfriend jeans which I am loving so much at the moment. The buckle detail adds a little bit of an alternative edge to the boot, and I surprisingly love the patent shine on these. ASOS also had some other Office boots reduced if you are interested by the way, although I'm not sure what they have left in stock - definitely worth a look though.




Over the past week or so, I have been really struggling to stay motivated and to stop myself wallowing in bed watching Netflix and YouTube all day long (quick disclaimer: I have finally started watching Breaking Bad with George and my goodness I am hooked). But yeah, I've been feeling a little down and emosh - finding simple daily tasks challenging. This could just be an excuse for me being completely lazy and a typical student, but nonetheless, its been a long week. I am glad this week is coming to an end to be honest because I am excited to start fresh on Monday and attempt to be a lot more productive and pull myself together a bit haha. I think its more than ok to have off days, and maybe its a combination of this awful British weather and my laziness that has brought me to feel like shit lol. I hope you've all had a great week and done some cool stuff that has made the last 7 days extra special. 

See you all next week guys, peace out.

| 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...

Accommodation review: Lloyd Hotel And Cultural Embassy Amsterdam

EVENING MY LOVES! So I returned from my fun-filled trip to Amsterdam in the early hours of Friday morning, and to be honest, I've had a hard time recovering from the colossal amount of food I ate, the probable litres of prosecco I drank, and I surely must have been close to a ga-zillion steps through the 6 days I was wondering around the most beautiful city I have ever visited. As a second timer, I found Amsterdam even better than the first time, so if you are considering going to Amsterdam and you've been before so are hesitant, GO FOR IT! Similarly, if you've never been and are intrigued or you have stalked my Instagram recently, the temptation needs to be given in to - everything is Instagrammable ok!  So I have numerous blog posts lined up around the subject of my visit to Amsterdam, and firstly I want to share with you my accommodation experience.  Lloyd hotel and cultural embassy is located close by to a gorgeous river, but is equally only a 15 minute tram ride away f...

| Let Yourself Grow | 14/07/17 |

Morning everyone.  As the summer months are passing us by, I challenge you to stop and think, for almost a mid-year reflection. What have you achieved this year? How many times have you stepped out of your comfort zone and pushed the boundaries? Is there anything you have managed to do this year that you never thought you could?  It is so important for us to occasionally pause from our busy schedules that never naturally give us a breather, and to take an alternative perspective on our every move in order to reflect on whether we are allowing ourselves to grow. To become a better version of ourselves, with more experience, deeper emotions, and fonder memories.  Today, I aspire to use this blog post to share my own reflection, and the way I am truly feeling in the midst of 2017. Having this platform to share my thoughts is becoming such a great ordeal for me, to be able to express myself in a way I wouldn't usually, and to have a sense of purpose to my life that...
