It's September!!
It's the start of the year!
Well more like the academic year - for some.
It is also the start of Autumn!
YAY!
Anyway…
As September comes, so does the beginning of a new chapter in my own life. Yes ladies and gentlemen, I am off to university. On Saturday I will be spreading my wings and flying the nest. Don't worry I'm 21 and I've worked for 2 and a half years as well as studying. I have also lived in a house with just my sister and I and I love my own company. What I'm trying to say (with the help of a little back story), is that the shock of being on my own isn't that much of a shock. Yes I will probably have a little cry and yes I will pine for my little lillybud, but I think I'm used to the unexpected unlike the more spring chickens leaving home as well. Now with a new adventure ahead of me it means only one thing - a new wardrobe. A new season and a new experience means a change of clothes and a new found confidence. Unfortunately I don't exactly have the funds for a whole new wardrobe; but instead I have picked up a few necessities. First - jumpers! Where I'm going to university is very cold and so I decided to stock up on some fluffiness. Primark has come to my rescue and have a really good selection of jumpers and cardigans - especially the fluffy kind. I also pick up a longline blazer in black. It's a great basic that can be layered during the day for a casual look; but can also be dressed up with a pair of heels for evening. For the perfect evening attire, I found the most amazing sequinned silk embroided vintage top from the Beyond Retro Outlet. It's beautifully made and it's just lovely to stare at and appreciate the craftsmanship of such an item. At a small price, I have managed to find some great bargains to help guide me through the next season and adventure in my life. It proves you don't have to spend a lot of money and instead you can find some amazing pieces in unexpected places.
To anyone who is starting school, college or university, I wish you all the best and I know you're going to thrive in your new environment!
Until next time!!
