| Welcoming Spring | 19/03/17 |


Evening all - Happy Sunday! I hope you're having a chilled out day, lounging on the sofa and mentally preparing for the new week's arrival. I would just like to say how crazy this year has been so far, and how I have absolutely no idea where the time has gone. I do apologise for not having posted in a few weeks, but understandably University life has caught up with me, and my workload has been far from light. But with assessments and deadlines coming up this week, I feel like a slight weight has been lifted off my shoulders, and that I can push on for one final week before I break up for Easter - HURRAH.


So I don't know about everywhere else in the UK, but Northampton has had some glorious weather this week, and has made me particularly excited for Spring. I have even made the mighty step of putting my thickest jumpers and coats into storage, and in their place I have popped a few Spring-like blouses and dresses, and swapped my heavy denim with some more lightweight pairs. Yep, I'm digging SS17!

So keeping things well themed, this post is undoubtedly centred around Spring, lets begin.




 | OUTFIT |  SUNGLASSES: JEEPERS PEEPERS | HALTERNECK BODY: ASOS | CARDIGAN: ASOS | STRAIGHT LEG JEANS: ASOS | CONVERSE: CONVERSE |



 So, I have owned these sunglasses and jeans for near enough a year now, and the halterneck body I tend to wear on a night out with jeans, but I tried to pair it with a casual outfit - turns out it works quite well. But the focal point of this outfit is my grey chunky knit cardigan from ASOS. I particularly love this cardigan because it doesn't have buttons, so its a little more loose fitting and not as kinda rigid as cardigans can be. I generally dislike cardigans as they remind me of either being at primary school, or grandparents, but I feel as though cardigans are essential for that transition between winter and spring, so I wanted to delve into the cardigan world. LMAO WHAAAT.



I also wanted to update you all on everything really, just a general catch up with my lovely readers. In terms of University, it's been pretty hectic, with assessments and group presentations completely taking up my life - although I've still managed to go out every week and to rack up the Sims 4 hours. I am obsessed. It's a real addiction. A disease. So, other than being stressed and getting poorer every minute, I am still loving the student life and am just incredibly excited for the weather to brighten up and to make plans for SUMMER. WOO!



I hope you've enjoyed reading this weeks blog post, and I shall be seeing ya'll super soon. 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...
