Today is one month since I started the blog! I've
enjoyed posting so much and can't believe I’ve only just got into blogging I
definitely should have started earlier. I also can't believe how it's grown
even over the past 4 weeks I have almost 50 followers and love reading all of
your sweet comments. I've found some of your amazing blogs, which I love to
read and the only downside is I have managed to spend lots on new clothes
because I keep seeing nice stuff on your blogs!
Yesterday was my boyfriend’s birthday so we went to
watch 'Crossfire Hurricane' a film about the Rolling Stones and it was
unbelievably good. I love every single song and watching footage of them just
being themselves was great, after we went out for drinks and ending up going
back to a friends flat and dancing to their songs for a good few hours. Mick
Jagger is sexy even as an old man seeing him shake his hips is too good and
Keith Richards is just the definition of cool, I really enjoyed it and don't
think I even realised I loved them that much! Today I am a bit hung over and am
just going to spend the evening eating pizza and watching rubbish TV :)
This week I have had a mini spend and wanted to
share my new purchases with you guys. Sorry for the photos just being taken on
my bedroom floor, I need to find a nice piece of fabric or something to use as
a background! First up on Monday I bought this bag from Accessorize after
seeing it on Annalises' blog (http://pastelbokeh.blogspot.com) I’m not a
huge bag person but I do love a good satchel and just couldn't resist this one
with the deer head detail on the fastening! It's a really good size and means I
can take it on a night out or use it in the day, I tend to use the same bag for
a few weeks then swap over to another one I don't have a day or night bag I
just use them all for whatever! It was £32 and you can find it here.
As I mentioned before I have recently got a new job
working in the Motel Bristol Store, it's the only store they have so it's
exciting to be working there and means I get a good discount on clothes which
makes me very very happy! This week I decided to get a few things to update my
wardrobe and decided on the Kadie Skirt in blue and the Carla playsuit in
black. The skirt is a really unusual colour and I decided to get it because I
wear the black one all the time and thought this would look really nice in the
Winter just adding a splash of colour, to my usual black winter outfits. I
really love the style of skater skirts as they're flattering and just look cute
and school like! This colour isn't actually on the website I have only ever
seen in the store but it was £20 (without discount) which is a good price and
if you live in and around Bristol I would definitely recommend a trip to Park
Street to have a look around the shop!
I wasn't able to take a picture of the playsuit
because it is a silky material and doesn't photograph well at all so thought I
would just use the picture from the website. I find playsuits quite hard to
wear sometimes because I’m quite tall and find they can sometimes be short in
the body. This playsuit is very soft but I would recommend getting a size
bigger than you usually would because it's tight fitting. I went for a Medium,
which was a little tight when I tried it on but I can tell it's going to
stretch out a bit when wearing it. Black playsuits are a bit of a staple item,
they can be worn casually in the day or dressed up on an evening with lots of
gold jewellery so decided this was a justified basic!
Saving the best till last I have finally bought the
Laynie!! Big news as I have been lusting after it for ages and decided as I’m
going out again for Toms' birthday on Saturday I would wear it then. As it's a baby
doll style lots of people have recommended going down a size, I bought the
small and I LOVE IT! It's so pretty and flattering and I can imagine myself
wearing it a lot throughout the winter. I'll make sure I get some photos on
Saturday so I can do an outfit post on it so you guys can see how I’m wearing
it.
