2014 Lookback-My Return

Have we become strangers again? It certainly feels that way! But fear no more my time as a Supervisor is nearly up and in around two weeks I will be free to Blog as I please. I love this time of year simply because there's so much going on from Christmas parties and excessive food(Which I know all too much about) to New Years plans and the dreaded resolutions. 
ANYWAY this post is going to be a reflection on my year, so here goes. 

-Blogging

My blog has actually only been running since the beginning of the year, and whilst it has increased my spending like crazy I wouldn't change it for the world. Whilst as of lately I've been really bad updating SKW i think it's so important to have interests and a life outside of work, I mean we all need something to keep us sane right?!


-Fashion Week

This year was my first as an Intern and I was lucky enough to experience London Mens Collection, and London Fashion Week. I am so greatful for the opportunities that I have been lucky enough to have had this year, and I look forward to seeing what 2015 has in store for me!

-Turning the big 18

This August saw my decent into womanhood (At least that's what I'm told) and I finally turned Eighteen. Now whilst at times it feel's the same as being 17 I do feel as if I need to take responsibility for certain things now such as my *cough* spending. And of course finally being able to flaunt your ID is a bonus!

-My Future

I decided fairly recently that I wanted to pursue a career in Fashion, this was such a big step for someone who has changed career decisions more than most. I feel like it's been such a big and fabulous learning curve for me and I'm really enjoying experiencing and deciding on which route to descend upon.

All I Want


Heels-New Look

It feels like an eternity since i've blogged and let's face it, it practically has! The latest is that i'm currently spending ny time as Womenswear Supervisor at River Island, just until January allowing me to make some extra money for christmas and experience being a supervisor which i'm still trying to get a grasp on might I add! Today's outfit is meant to be a little inspiration for this party season, throwing on heels and a long coat can add a fab pop if you're in a rush or simply unsure on what to wear for the night.   Believe it or not I'm actually a terrible shopper both online and in the stores, I diver like nobodies business and I can take up to 3 weeks to make a final decision! I'd say all of the items in this outfit were subject to this treatment and I'm suprised that I was able to get my hands on them keeping in mind the amount of time that I took making my mind up. I can't believe how close Christmas is?! And the cheek I had nearly not mentioning the festive season in this post, but thankfully Mariah Carey is now filling my eardrums and my house with Christmas spirit!
   
    Lots of love xx

Matalan have got it down this christmas!


The Happy December everyone, can you believe that we're only 23 days away from Christmas? That's the scariest yet exciting thing I've heard so far this month. Anyway I'm back! I'm not too sure where I've been apart from doing ridiculous shifts at River Island to fund what I can already tell is going to be an expensive Christmas.
This is a quick one from me as always as I am due to leave the house in about 3 minutes for my shift and ofcourse I choose now to start a blogpost, I am absolutely loving RI at the minute and I'm not just saying this as a former employee I promise! Their coat game has always been incredibly strong and this year I feel that they're killing the high street with new up to date fabulous styles weekly, and belive me It's tough to keep up! These fabulous trousers are from River and whilst I'm the clumsiest person in the world by reputation I just couldn't refuse them. They're the perfect slim fit which I have always adored and the cropped leg saves me rolling them up! This is one of my first jumper purchases of the year, Where have I been right?! And believe it or not it's actually from Matalan, I came across it last friday and before I knew it I was holding it to my chest keeping it safe from all the crazy Black Friday shoppers! It was amazingly only £25 and they have it in cream too!
That's it from me, Speak soon x
