pop of colour, 3 pairs of shoes

Well today I added yet more shoes to my already large collection but I do blame my mother for the encouragement. They were in all in sale though which just proves waiting sometimes has its good parts even if you don't think it when you first fall in love with a pair.  I got a black pair of t-bar wedges with cork bottom (new look £12 scanned at £7. BONUS) that look heavy but actually are so light I could last a while in them with the toe and ankle strap for stability. As well as two pairs of look a like Birkenstock's one in cobalt blue the other in a iridescent copper colour that can simply pass as silver in the right light. Both pairs for £10 from F&F Tesco what is there to complain about. Only problem though I don't really have a place to keep them :(.

 A lovely cami top also happened to fall into the arms from new look £12.99 current collection as I just love this zingy yellow/green colour that has made a big bold appearance on the high street that will continue to accent for the coming months.  Apart from the colour I was draw to the beautiful floral design in black outline and white fill colour with the scratchy not too neat mark making bringing character to an already loud garment.

I am more then positive all these additions to my life will get the fair share of wear.

 

So....even though I say I am not going to buy any more shoes, bags or clothing how can you stop a girl with a love of constant change and variety??

Not a boring monday!! Animals, Laughter and florals

 

 

Like the title it has definitely not been a boring day. yay!! This because I got to reconnect with a friend I haven't seen for a while which always brings a smile to my face and laughter into my vocals. 

With the weather being the way it is recently sunny and lovely why not take advantage so we headed to Noah's ark zoo farm in wraxall (somerset). I would advise anyone with small children or just a love for animals living around the area or thinking of visiting go up there. From a large amount of picnic benches to talks to baby chicks I'm sure you day will be like mine full of enjoyment.

 

As for my outfit I dug out another treasure I forgot about. A chiffon loose fitting t-shirt style top with a boat neck line and vintage floral pattern from select. It gave enough coverage to stop my shoulders getting repeatedly burnt but also enough room to let air flow freely. Teamed with a pair of Oasis jeggings rolled up, Primark laser cut open toe pumps in beige and a mint green cardigan also from Primark (shoes and cardigan this season).

Simple yet effective as who really wants to go to the zoo/farm in top to toe new clothes that you will worry might get ruined. not me!! 

 

(p.s sorry about bad quality photos)

lots of sun and Sanctuary Spa

I am sure I am not the only one going to say this but I am loving the British weather recently minus the torture of working out in this heat (sweaty betty) and the occasional blemish.  With the sunshine brings great freedom in clothing, accessories and shoe choices. YAY!! to changing up outfit pieces.

This week I can definitely say I am sticking to what I said at the beginning of summer by attempting to wear every piece of clothing I own (not at once though) by the end of summer otherwise I have to get rid :( due to the amount I have. Its hard being a female sometimes but, I push everyone to join me. This because you will find treasures you forget you have. clash those prints, play with textures, explore colour and best of all enjoy being individual and not caring what others think. Otherwise what is the point in fashion and all that comes under that umbrella!!

Anyways I need to rave about my Sanctuary Spa covent garden products.  I currently have the body butter, body lotion, body scrub and intensive heel balm and with the weather creating variation with in my skin that are all working amazing.  The heel balm is the best I have ever tried!!! Its a great moisturiser and definitely provides my feet with the nourishment and attention they require as who wants to wear sandals, flip flops and other summer shoes with cracked heels. not me!!  The body scrub whether used as a bubble bath or a shower product it gives great buffering qualities to get rid of all that build up in layers of skin many of us would never thing about leaving it 'cleansed, radiant and refined' there is no lieing on this packaging.  For the other two they are just brilliant all round body creams that keep you skin hydrated and beautiful.

Bye blog world xoxo

Fun with the Family

so.........

this weekend I got to see my lovely grandparents which as always was really nice.
sometimes we all forget what people around us do for us so when the opportunity arises to see the ones who care for us never turn it down. life is too short!!

This weekend has been nothing more then laughter, fun times, food and general catch-up.  Yesterday was great that even though typical great British weather it rained come the end it brighten up to allow for a BBQ. who doesn't love a good BBQ???!  But the best thing about the whole evening my grandparents and fellow guests over the age of 50 were doing vodka jelly shots that I never thought would happen with them in fact asking for more. phahah. high light of the night for sure along with my granddad taking a selfie with me. bless him :)




Today - In keeping with the British things of never anything going to plan it was sunny, clammy and bright so me along with 9 other family members decide to go for a roast dinner. Considering the weather is was still so lovely to see my grandparents again considering they live in Devon. In need of a definite break down that way in the very near future!!

hope everyone is having a lovely weekend.

Degree grade

The official letter finally arrive a week ago today sorry for not informing all of you soon but I'm graduating with a 2:1. YAY!!!. To say I was relieved when I opened that letter was a understatement with the stress and fluctuation in emotions, creativity and grades this past year I thought it would have been a bit of a task.
Looking on now though as much as I cried, burdened people with my thoughts and made some closer bonds with friends I know who is there for me and i'm counting down the day till graduation (98 to be precise). I am hoping though I see them before that :).

so this week has been filled with a lot of pain due to clumsy me falling off a pavement 2 weeks ago. Not my best move!!! having either deeply bruised the bone or damaged the tendon its just a wait and see situation which isn't very cool when I want to walk and go to the gym/zumba.  I have had good and bad days. Good day was Wednesday I got to take a close family friends 13 year old daughter out shopping for a few summer pieces for her wardrobe.  It was thoroughly enjoyable with the ability to help combine pieces whilst help her to start understanding clothes and her own style.  From swimwear to tops to skirts we covered it all.  Best thing from the who experience she wants to do it again :D:D:D. winter wardrobe shopping possibly??

update...

Update!!
Today I found that I didn't get the job I had applied for after having gone through two stages of interviews but hey ho things like this happen. Its full steam ahead with the next and no dwelling on the past.  Luck is bound to come into my favour sooner or later. Touch food, Fingers crossed all of that jazz.

This week has gone ever so quickly I cant believe one its Friday and two its July (happy independence day all you Americans :) ) where did January go???!!

I finally got round to doing all the tasks that we all hope will do themselves but we all know that never happens with hair cut, repairing skirt zips, tiding rooms, clearing out loft the list can go on. But on the plus side at least I now have next week to have some free time to myself. As for this weekend its working back at home part time until I receive news I have a full time job which I am hoping wont be to much in the future. No rest for the wicked.

Anyways I am feeling I am typing just for the sake of it so will depart you now.

Im sorry for not blogging

As the title say I'M SORRY!!! These last few months have been nothing but crazy with fmp, grad shows, moving back home the list could easily go on. One thing i am happy but also sad about though is that my degree has officially come to an end which means i no longer can call myself a student :(. Onwards and upwards though the creativity still floes through my veins and the passion to go with it. If you believe you can do it and want it enough goals shall be hit :). Anyways less of the rambling!! My goal from now onwards to to blog as often as i can whilst gaining as much experience as possible whether that be potential placements/internships or employment i just want to continue expanding on my knowledge of fashion. I know i sound slightly ott but i am a sponge i just love to learn and what better way then through the journey of life. So here i go after my first blog in a long time. Hope i haven't bored you too much and fingers crossed i will have some news to share with you all in the near future. Happy blogging everyone :) x
