Hey everyone!!
Hope you are all well!!
It is currently 7:36am in the morning and I'm awake!!
Bad dream + burning sunburn = me being awake at this time!
I literally woke up shaking from my nightmare...
I haven't had one in ages!!
I always feel like a kid again when I have nightmares!
Here's hoping I don't have anymore.
Anyway...
That is the reason I am awake at an ungodly hour!!
I'm literally trying to entertain myself with kids TV.
What happened to all the good programmes??
We were so lucky when we were younger!!
We had Johnny Bravo, Arthur, Cow & Chicken, Dexter's Laboratory, Hi 5 (the original), Fun Song Factory, Hotch Potch House etc.
BRING BACK THE CLASSICS!!
Now you're probably wondering 'why don't you go back to sleep??'
Well I shall tell you why...
I CAN'T!!
You see, someone has to go put a ticket in Mildred when the time comes...unfortunately that person is me!!
Soooooooooooooooooooooooo...
Instead of trying to go back to sleep for an hour or two, I have decided to stay awake and do this post instead!!
Let's hope I don't fall asleep half way though!!
Anyway (again)...
Just a quick post today!!
This was me on Monday before my shift at work.
Now I know I said yesterday that there would be no outfit post from this week, but I was having a few problems with getting this picture. Basically when I connected my phone to the laptop it wouldn't come up. So the only way I could do it, was by bluetoothing it over to my Mum's phone and back again to mine. Eventually I got it on to my laptop, but then it wouldn't load up on blogspot - not good!! Anyway I finally have it here, (don't listen to what I said yesterday as here is an outfit photo). As you guys know I don't usually show off my work outfits here; but as I had time to be a poser in front of the camera I thought why not. Also Fas# Tag had retweeted my picture of this outfit, so I think it goes without saying that I needed to show this off. As you guys know I work on Monday's on the Oasis concession of my local Debenhams. I usually do a 4 hour shift which usually feels twice as long; but goes quickly on the odd occasions. If I'm honest I don't really remember much of my shift on Monday - yes it was that uneventful! I do remember having a chat with my work friend, (I'm gonna say she's my friend even if she doesn’t know it). But generally not much happened; but I think it went pretty quickly. Needless to say when I got home I was dead (not literally) and tired!!
To the outfit...
If any of you guys work for a concession or a company out there similar to Oasis, then you will know that I have to wear a uniform. Now usually when we hear the word 'uniform' we all have flashbacks to our school days (bad times). The good thing about this uniform is that it can be pretty and you can wear what you want!! IT'S A MIRACLE!! Unfortunately when I first started at Oasis, I was against the bright colours, prints and general girliness. I am pleased to announce that I have embraced it and I now love all the floral/pretty/bright stuff. So every two months we get to pick a new uniform, (although you are allowed to wear the old one unless it goes in the sale - don't ask). This little ensemble I'm wearing is from both my first and second uniform allowances. The jeggings are from my first lot, I think I literally got these the first day on the job. These Jessie Jeggings are super soft and comfortable and for £28 they're an absolute steal. The best part about them is that I can fit in to a size 14 - MIRACLE!! They come in light denim, dark denim, grey and black; I'm literally on a quest for the black ones (they never have my size). I definitely recommend these as they are amazing. The blazer is from my second lot of uniform. Now the Oasis blazer is kind of essential to a uniform allowance (well in my opinion), so I set my sights on the dark green one. Unfortunately our little concession didn't get that colour in, so I decided on the navy one - they didn't have my size. So eventually I settled on the coral one, which if I'm honest scared me when I first got it. Bright colours are not me at all, I love wearing dark colours as that's my comfort zone. I must admit I have warmed to the coral colour, but matching it with other stuff is sometimes hard but other times it's pretty easy. The fit of the Ponte Jacket (as they call it); is really nice and flexible and has an over sized feel to it. I would definitely recommend this blazer (maybe not the colour); as it will just be the perfect thing to chuck on and is a steal at £40.
I know I started this at 7:36am but it is now 3:32pm (no I haven't been typing all this time - I took a break). I have literally been sleeping on and off while watching Nicktoons - yep the high life!!
Here's hoping that tomorrow is a bit more exciting!!
Well...
