On my mind up past my bedtime, no rest in the kingdom...

Do you ever just stop and think about when your luck is going to turn around? I seem to be thinking about it so often, i have to pull myself back and remember how good i have it compared to some people, but it does get very easy to start spiralling. I'm a firm believer in karma and fate and that its all written in the stars, hopefully i can turn it all round in the new year...

It's CHRISTMAS EVE! How very exciting! I do love christmas, it's a very odd, quiet one this year but i have my two babies with me (my doggies) and me and dad are just going to have a relaxed, quiet day.

I do love winter clothes, black tights and loads of layers! I do have admit these were taken last week before all this chilly weather hit us so black tights (or 20) are a must!

Oh and to add...you'll all be so happy to hear i got some other winter boots other than my new look ones YAY! They are from office and i little more than i would normally pay but they are the first real leather pair i have so i'm hoping they'll last me a good few winters! Love love love them!

Merry Christmas my lovelies! Have a beautiful day! <3

Took a trip to clear my mind
now i'm even more lost..

Hello my little chickens! <3

It feels like it has been a very long time, just a simple OOTD for you today, featuring a smock (my favourite silhouette!) This plain and simple dress is from 'Boohoo' I just wanted one for the silhouette of the smock and for it to be plain and neutral so i could style is up tuns of different ways! I whipped out my fur H&M coat from a few years back to keep me snug and warm!

As for the boots, need i mention them? :P My trusty new look boots! I've been dribbling over a pair of vagabonds. preferably the black 'DIOON' ones but they're always out of stock! (goddammit) But you will all be so proud when i tell you: I actually got another pair of boots for winter! THREE CHEERS! Which i'm sure you'll see in a post very soon! Sit tight!

Hope you're all having a perfect day <3

At the moment i can't stop putting a ton of pressure on myself about what i what to be doing with my life, everyone says 'oh you're young you've got plenty of time' and i do believe thats true but also i'm in my 20's now and i really want to be pursuing something i love! Well following on from that, me taking a step back from my fashion studies has seemed to clarify how much i love it and want to carry on - it's like they say 'you don't know what you have till it's gone' Luckily it hasn't gone...i've just strayed a little

This fur gilet is one of the best £15 i've spent! I've been looking for a decent one for not to much for so long and finally just took the risk with ordering from china on Ebay! It is literally perfect - i do worry about sizings because they tend to be soooo small but this is perfect and even manages to fit over the boobies! YAY!

'I need to invest in another winter boot because it really is getting ridiculous with the amounts i wear these beautys'

I underestimated how bloody hard it would be to have a full time job and blog!! As i can only do my outfit posts outside it all depends on what the weather decides to do on that one day off! Today i literally got ready for my day and checked BBC weather for the one dry spot for the day and grabbed my tripod and FLEW outside the minute it stopped raining (for a few seconds) So i hope that explains the lack of posts!

At the moment i'm wearing a lot of dark colours which i tend to do when the weather gets colder, so i'm loving playing with mixing texture and prints, so on my trips to the charity shops i've been looking out mostly for different textures and prints!

Hey guys! hope you are all good!

Being at work this week has really got me thinking about human beings...What the hell happens to people in their upbringings that makes them believe that they can use you as a human punching bag? It really does baffle me, and also makes me question myself? I experience such bad guilt and sadness for people i could never treat someone like that, i would chew me up! I really do need to learn to grow a tougher skin, i have always gone by treat others how you would want to be treated yourself - but to be honest it doesn't get you anywhere, people just shit all over you anyway!

Well anyway, enough of human ramblings! I have another outfit post to share with you guys! I bought these shorts on a whim a couple of weeks ago. I am so picky with my denim washes (so weird i know) that when i find a wash and cut and colour i like i have to snap them up, and these were one of those pairs! I'm probably going to distress them even more than how they came but i love them! Thank you new look! <3

I love the look of high waisted shorts/skirts with thick black tights and whatever top takes my fancy, I've been loving this primark one recently as 1) it's tartan....2) I has a high neck (it's so chilly!!) and 3) It's just so darn cute!

Hope you are all having a lovely week! (and looking forward to halloween!)
