I've started a new blog...

Hi guys

Thank you

NEW BLOG ALERT!

Hi guys. I feel the time has come for a blog makeover. For the last week or so I've been working on a new blog, just testing out various things and I think it's time to make the switch. I'll keep posting on here for a little while just because I don't want to leave any of my lovely followers behind! 

There's not a lot on the new site just yet, it is a work in progress, but please bear with me because I have very big ideas for it. Basically my old approach to blogging was rushed snaps of lots of different outfits in order to have something to post every day. Now instead I'll be taking more time with my photos. I'm gonna aim to post not only outfits but more lifestyle bits too. I live in a truly amazing place and want to make the most of that instead of taking pics in the corner of my kitchen. I want to make a lot more of my outfit pics and take more pride in what I do.

So please, come take a look at My World

OK, so I've taken the plunge - I've given up chocolate, sweets, crisps, cake, biscuits and ice cream for lent. And it's one day in and already I'm having some hardcore cravings. Not cool at all. Have you guys given up anything? 

Hope you like today's getup - I was so unsure about the athletic trainers trend but got these ones from New Look. At only £20 I figured it wouldn't be too bad if I only wore them a few times, but actually looking back at these pics they're quite cool. While I've got them on I can't help looking down at my feet and chuckling - they remind me of something I would wear in my 12 year old tomboy phase! But hey, if I can get used to creepers, I can totes get onboard with these :p

There's still a small part of me that lols when I see the number 69. Will I ever stop being so childish?! 

Obsessed with these Toppers croppers (wooo rhyming!) atm, super-versatile and perfs for spring/summer. I've got this coral one and also a grey marl one and can't wait to rock them somewhere other than my kitchen when the weather warms up a bit #brrrrr

Very excited about this evening, going up to a friend's for a pancake feast night! He's informed me that they've stocked up on lemon, sugar, nutella, banana, ice cream etc etc. Normally being a classic lemon 'n' sugar kinda gal I'm thinking I might have to be a bit more adventurous this time, ice cream and nutella does sound good....

Hope you're all having fab pancake days and preparing for some serious stuffing face time later!

Socks: Topshop

Heels: New Look

Isn't this the most perfect tea-dress ever? Since the new Girls Aloud video I'm obsessed with lantern style dresses, so feminine and flattering. And this print is to die for. Even if it does kinda suffocate me around the middle...oh well. Too beautiful not to buy! Will just have to make sure not to wear it out for meals, don't want to restrict eating potential or create a bursting incident.

These are my new nude heels too - so pleased I found them and they've already had 2 outings - twice as much as a lot of my shoes (shameful). Everyone needs a pair of nude courts in their life.

Today is the second installment of midi dress lovin'. I think midis are perfect for understated glamour, looking dressed up enough but without flashing too much flesh. You might have seen the first time I styled this dress here, more casually with my trusty mock-cons and a neon mini satchel. That's what I love about them, so perfectly versatile.

Hope you like today's outfit - gone for a bit of a grungey look which I do like to dabble in occasionally. The 1D toooons blaring out of my iPod usually give the game away though :p

Trousers: River Island

Heels: Primark

I love the suited and booted look. You might remember a few posts ago I went on about wanting to find the perfect black trews, smartish, somewhere between tuxedo and jogger...well let me introduce you to them. River Island have really done me proud. These bad bois are the perfect fit, really nice relaxed fit but still smart, with a cuff at the bottom for maximum shoe showage offage :p

They're obviously a winning pair as I've already worn them twice, since I bought them like 2 weeks ago - and believe me, that just doesn't happen with me (you should see the extent of my wardrobe...)

I coined a new word today. Crayday. Today has been an absolute crayday. Nothing in particular made it so cray. It was just one of those days where I didn't stop. I started off the day being quite disgusted at myself for having such a huge breakfast. Four pieces of toast. Yep that's right. Four. Not an acceptable amount of toast to have in one sitting by any means. The thing is I had a real bad hangover yesterday, which subsided around 3pm, leaving that consuming, empty post-hangover hunger, like the munchies but without having smoked anything interesting...anyway as much as I ate yesterday the stomach rumbled on. I think this morning I still had some hunger debt leftover from yesterday, a void I hastened to fill with toast. As much as at the time all I could think was, you greedy little bugger, thank god I did it because there was no way I was getting lunch today. Frikkin crayday.

Anyway here's some pics for you. This skirt was a fiver - can you believe it?! *drool*

Finally managed to take some new pics yesterday, although just when I thought the weather had cleared up and outdoor pics were on the cards it started raining again!! Pffft, typical! So indoors it had to be.

I got some lovely bits while I was away recently, I didn't go quite as mad as normal though. This skirt was only £7 in the New Look sale, really pleased with it's so versatile and gives an outfit some effortless glamour. I also find the hi-low style really flattering, perfect for showing some leg but hiding the dodgy backs of legs post-christmas and pre-tan!
