O M G!!!
I'm having such an odd few weeks it's a little bit insane.
I don't even think it's processing in my mind I'm a little all over the place.
I've just got another interning gig which starts tomorrow and pretty much goes on for 2 weeks!! I'm so excited but completely overwhelmed although it hasn't sunk in yet; but no doubt at 6am tomorrow morning when I wake up it would have definitely set in.
This month is going to be hectic (btw my magazine work experience is now in November).
Anyway...
This was me yesterday when I popped in to town, to pick up a birthday present for my Dad and an anniversary present for my parents. Now you know me so whenever I'm in town I have a tendency to pick up a few things for myself. I popped in to Primark because I haven't actually had a good look in there for quite a long time, I knew what I wanted to look at in Primark and that was their new pleather pleated skirt. Now many of you will either know of this skirt or own it, now unfortunately first time round I wasn't able to get it but I'm sure most people did. Now when I was looking through a couple of blogs, I noticed a post on LLYMRS with Lily wearing the metallic version. I knew this skirt would be quite hard to style but probably even harder to find, so yesterday when I was in Primark I practically ran straight to the skirts and I found it. Unfortunately they didn't have my size but seen as I'm ballooning I thought why not try the next size up, so I did and surprisingly it fitted - now I'm still unsure about it so I'll probably team it up with a few things to see how it looks. Another Primark piece I picked up is also something I saw on LLYMRS (I just love this blog). Back in July I saw Lily wearing the Camouflage Cardigan from Topshop and immediately I fell in love, unfortunately £46 is a little out of my price range (and by a little I mean completely). So yesterday when I was walking towards the escalators in Primark, I looked over and saw a Camouflage cardigan and I ran to it. Now usually in cardigans or general knitwear I always buy the next size up (so usually a size 18); but they only had a few but luckily there was a size 16 so I grabbed (I don't even remember looking at the price). It was £14 and a complete bargain!! I'm definitely wearing it tomorrow to keep me warm in the cold morning. I also picked up a fleecy blue hoody from Cedar Woods (the men's section in Primark); I did look downstairs but for us girls they only had a weird purple colour one and that’s too girly for me. From Topshop I picked up the Charm Necklace (here’s the bracelet to go with it), I've been after for a few months now. Originally it was going to go on my birthday list, but as payday got nearer and nearer I decided to throw caution to the wind and get it anyway (plus 10% off helps). I managed to get an array of presents for both my Dad's birthday (which is today HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY!!!!!!!!) and for my parent’s anniversary. I rounded off the day sharing chips with my Nan.J chatting about work and stuff. It was really nice. (Oh I did get stationary very boring but I love it!)
To the outfit...
Hello my name is Becky and I'm an outfit repeater!!
Yes you might have noticed this outfit back in July (here); when we had that really hot weather spell (which keeps happening at the moment). I love this outfit and I think it can be accessorised in many different ways, so you never know it might turn up again!! I did want to do something different yesterday, so instead of using my usual Straw Bag or my lovely Rocco I decided to be a bit more sophisticated and use my Marc B Chelsea bag. Now I got this bag years ago from House of Fraser, I remember at the time I was craving a Chelsea bag to feed my Chanel addiction. It was £17.50 in the sale and I bullied my Mum until she bought it for me and I must confess I have used it a lot. Now I'm not usually a fan of patent but I like it on this bag as it adds that little something extra. I've been craving another Chelsea bag in Camel its so pweedy!! Maybe it might magically appear on here one day - I'll keep you posted.
I can't believe I'm gonna wake up at 6am tomorrow!!
I can't believe tomorrow I become an intern on/off for 2 weeks!! 
This is literally insane and I feel like I'm about to wake up from a dream, so there’s only one thing I can say... LET ME SLEEP!!!!!!!!! (which no doubt I'll be saying tomorrow morning).
