This week has been a very exciting one! Friday was my last day at my job in Topshop and to be honest it was a bit of a relief, now i've finished there I can tell you guys I didn't really enjoy the job. The people were really nice, and was ok when I had a delivery or visual merchandising to, but on the whole I didn't find being a concession manager challenging enough. So, after finishing I had a nice weekend off and an interview on Tuesday, I was fully expecting to go back to being unemployed for a while but if you follow me on twitter you will already know that I got a new job straight away! It's for a Bristol based social media company who handle all the social media channels for fashion and beauty companies and I will be taken on to manage my own accounts and assist with the launch of a blogger affiliation program (which I will definitely being involving you guys in!) It's really exciting and a little bit daunting because unbelievably i've never actually had a full time job before! I think it will take me a while to get used to getting up in the morning haha but it will be nice to have regular money and be paid to do something that I love. Of course it should make blogging a bit easier because I will have more of a routine and working with other people who have a passion for social media means I can get them to do my outfit shots for me!

In other news I have gone a bit Motel Rocks crazy and bought a few items from the website recently including this lovely Amy Square Eyes Print Skirt. I really love it, I was worried about the shape because i'm very conscious of having big hips, but it's actually really comfortable and I don't think it looks that bad! I've been teaming with plain black or white t shirts or jumpers or cobalt blue which is my favourite colour at the moment! I'm also wearing some new heeled chelsea boots in this post which are basically a copy of the Topshop Allegra boot and only cost me £20 from eBay! Sorry about my squinting little eyes in this picture, the sun was so bright and I do look a bit weird!

I hope everyone is having a nice week and looking forward to the weekend!
