I'm being good this week!!
HELLO AGAIN!!!
Yes you officially can't get rid of me!!
This was me earlier today when I popped in to town with Mum!!
(A lot of exclamation points today.)
Now today there was a special reason for going in to town and yes you've guessed it - Benefit Day!!
No matter how many times I do it I always feel awkward walking around town with no make up on, I think as you grow up you get so used to wearing make up it feels weird when you don't. Mum and I spent most of the day in town today picking up a few bits of pieces. Which reminds me, I have to take the time to tell you how happy I am today as I have purchased the most amazing pair of boots I have ever seen!! I popped in to Topshop on Sunday to try on a pair of the Alexy Platform Chelsea Boots, which I've had my eye on. I tried the 41's on but unfortunately they were too small so I ordered the 42's in to the store; I honestly had no idea if they would fit but secretly I was hoping they would. I went in today to try them on and O M G the relief I felt when they fitted!! Now the right foot is bigger then the left even though they're fresh out the box; I think I just have weird feet. They were £75 but they're so worth it for these because they're amazing!! I did also pick up a signet ring and Hamsa necklace from Accessorize, a couple of bits from Benefit (coming tomorrow) and a pink octopus called Edith from Build - a - Bear. I nearly forgot to mention through the door this morning came my ASOS Quilted Backpack; now I wasn't going to jump on the backpack trend but when I saw this I jut thought - Chanel!! It's so big and perfect and I'm in love and it will be used this weekend/next week.
To the outfit...
Today I am wearing two new pieces (and by new I mean I've had for a while just never worn). This shirt I picked up a while ago in the River Island sale for £15 which I thought was a bargain!! When I go back to college in September I've decided that I kinda just want to live in shirts and chunky cardigans. This was an amazing find (thank you Mum - the best sale finder ever); it's a sleeveless, dipped hem with a beautiful spring print with flowers and (what look like) hummingbirds. My favourite part of this shirt is the print on the back in the centre and it's a cascade of birds, butterflies and flowers all the way down. The perfect way to perk up those winter days. Let's talk about the bag. This bag is one I ordered a few months back for college and it's been sitting in my wardrobe waiting to be used; so I decided today would be a good time to test drive it. It's from Next and its leather with a leopard horse hair print and was £45 but totally worth it!! Even though this was part of the Spring/Summer collection it's perfect for winter. It'll be a great accessory for college and big enough to put notebooks and folders in there, plus it's lovely and soft I can't stop stroking it!!
I'm looking forward to my nice relaxing day tomorrow before work on Sunday!!
I think a 24 hour sleep??
Yes, I think so...
