Getting back to the blog


If you are a blogger you might understand this feeling, if you just enjoy reading blogs, and are still here, then you may not. I recently found myself a little stuck in terms of blogging, I've been trying to handle blogging, Alevels, a somewhat lacking social life and work over the past couple of months and its been stressful to say the least. Its safe to say my blog took the biggest hit. However after investing in a new laptop and realising how much I missed my little old blog I decided to get back into the swing of things and get back to blogging.

I really hope some of you are still here and want to hear some of the random stuff and thoughts that end up on here.

Thanks for reading,

Messy college hair of the day







College isn't always the place to get dressed up. However the other day I did my hair a little different as it was a) a little greasy and b) had second day curls. instead with my hair I did a simple side bun but added a loose braid around it. It many not be the neatest hairstyle but I really like this for day to day to jazz up a basic college outfit.

Going out outfits on the cheap - (2)

This is the second post of my 'Going out outfits on the cheap', this time consisting of a beautiful pair of shorts from Matalan that were only £8. Compared to somewhere like Zara were they would be something around £30 /£40 , the quality is still amazing. I know this outfit is less going out and more christening or a wedding outfit but lets just go with it.

Outfit 2 

SHORTS - Matalan  - £8
TOP -  Dorothy Perkins - £4 - sale 
HEELS - Deichmann -£12.99
BAG - Next - £12
LIPSTICK - Lasting finish by Kate lipstick in 110 - Rimmel - £5.49



I really love having a bright outfit then matching shoes and my bag together. Id also just like to say how becuase I am very tall (5ft10) im not a fan of huge heels due to feeling a bit 'manish'. Therefore normally whatever heels I do show will not be amazingly high.
