A Day in Photos

breakfast!

Earl Grey and Victoria sponge <3 td="">

Finally have Chrome at College
Tired but happy!


Outifits of the Weekend

Hello there! Here is a few photos of my recent outfits from the weekend! Since I have to wear a uniform for both college and work, I don't often get a chance to wear normal clothes, but when I do, I will show you! Both outfits feature stuff from my recent Primarni haul blog post!!

On Saturday I attended my mums panto and I wanted to show off my new red polka dot dress, so I paired it with some pink and red flats and a nice black blazer for a casual pretty look!


I look really tired, because I was, I have not been sleeping well, but oh well. I love this dress! The necklace is the feather one from Primark too, but I didn't want to over do it, so I kept it simple and let the dress do the talking, rather than lots of jewellery!


I literally love this dress. I can't wait to find another excuse to wear it!

I did not wear anything interesting Sunday apart from my work uniform, so onto Monday! It is a rare Monday that I actually get dressed, but I had stuff to do, so dressed I did! It gave me a chance to wear my new owly blazer, plus a new top I had bought a couple of weeks ago but not worn yet!


Black skinny jeans, red owl blazer, black space top are all Primark (I love you place of work), the gold flatforms are an ebay find (I love you ebay). I just love this outfit, it was comfy and I felt awesome in it. Even though it was tipping it down, I had my coat open (I didn't have much choice, the button fell off and I haven't sewn it back on yet) and strutted around Portsmouth like a boss. I am getting too old to care about what people think about my style. If they don't like it they don't have to look haha!


My face was super grumpy in this photo, but it was a good one of the outfit, so I improved my face on GIMP haha! I suppose you can see a little bit of the weight I have lost over last year in these photos, but more weight will be lost!!

What do you think of the outfits? Do you get a chance to wear pretty stuff, or are you stuck in a uniform a lot? LET ME KNOW <3 p="">
STAY BEAUTIFUL and thank you for reading!

Primarni Shopping Haul!

Yes yes, I know, my saving goal, I know! But this stuff only came to £17 altogether so shush haha!


So I got paid Friday and the first thing I do is decide if I NEED any thing. And I obviously do need a new dress, blazer and necklace....OF COURSE I DO. I did need the organiser thing though, its brilliant and will help me be more..organised.

All of this is from Primark, where I work, so I often go round and see things I want and have to resist!

But THIS, this I could not resist. I eyed it up before and I was like, NO, I must not spend £13 on you, £13 I do not have! And then it went in the sale...for £5!! FIVE POUNDS!! I couldn't pass up on a pretty little bargain like that! So I didn't! I grabbed that dress as fast as I could, and it looks so pretty, pics of it on to come in a upcoming post!


This jacket was also in the sale for £7. But that wasn't why I bought it. I bought, because those black dots, they are tiny owls. Yup, this jacket is covered in TINY OWLS. How can you resist, like, seriously? TINY OWLS


SEE, TINY OWLS, JUDGING YOU AND STUFF. Awesome.


I fell in love with this necklace right away. If it has feathers or wings on it then I must have it, especially when it comes to jewellery! My wing/feather collection is coming along nicely!


This little beaut only cost me £2 so I couldn't say no, could I! It is a pencil/pen pot with a magnetic notepad, mini address book, mini notebook and two pencils! All for £2 (reduced from £4) I found only one in my store, so I think I was lucky! I just love the print on it, there are little birds on it too, which you can't see here. I love Primark sometimes!

So that's my little haul from Primark, do you often find little gems in the sale and accessories or is it just me? Aren't owls just adorable? Tell me what you think!

STAY BEAUTIFUL and thank you for reading!

Personal Goals for 2013!

Hello 2013! And hello to all my readers that still read these! Thank you for sticking around so long and not giving up when I thought I did!

Looking back over 2012, I am not quite sure what to think of it! It was an on and off year, I suppose, more off than on, but I plan to use the energy I saved up in 2012 to make 2013 one heck of a year! I did some awesome things in 2012, like attended my first festival, went to Crete, got a job. But mentally, 2012 was a bit of a downer for me, so making 2013 a recovery!

Why is this post so late, I hear you cry?! It's nearly February, I hear you cry?! I know, I know, don't worry! I planned all along to kick it off again around this time! What's the point in writing a New Years Resolution blog when by mid January we would all be tucking back into those left over Celebrations from Christmas, the gym long forgotten! Instead, I am making Personal Goals for the year!

I want to achieve more this year and make my life better for myself, not just short term goals, but long term ones too. I felt like my flare and passion for life had died a little in 2012, so I am bringing it back in 2013, I'm going to light myself up (like the fourth of July).

Now, on to those personal goals!



1. Finish a story! (aka Write a 50,000 novel in 31 days because you are a crazy fool)
~With this one, I have started already, though I fell behind last week when I got ill, but I am picking it back up today, I WILL get this done!! I have always written stories, and love writing, but I have never completed one! So this year, I told myself, I want to complete one of my stories, and then this escalated into the challenge of writing 50,000 words in 31 days...I AM CRAZY. But I will do it, I can feel it in my bones. It's even more of a challenge because it's the first sci-fi story I will be writing *le gasp* I usually write fantasy, but sci-fi has always interested me! Wish me luck!

2. Finish AT LEAST one chapter of my comic
~ Yup, another creative one, but I need to get that spark back! And what better way than actually doing my comic! This will be the next creative project after my novel, so once Subject 10 (the novel) is finished, I will move on to starting my comic! I already know what it is about and have Chapter 1 planned out in writing and began drafts, I just need to kick myself up the bum and draw!

3. Lose another stone (and get into healthy eating habits)
~ This one is more a long term goal, as I want to lose a bit more weight and then I will be happy with myself and I want to get into the good habits of eating healthily. I don't want to diet, I want to change my lifestyle! If I can get into good habits and lose weight, it will help keep the weight off!



4. GET FIT
~ I need the stamina. I get worn out after a brisk walk for 20 minutes. I want to build up my stamina so I can enjoy life more! I want to go for long nature walks, walk up hills, mountains, conquer places I have never been before, walk all the way around Portsmouth, stuff like that! I want to have the stamina to keep up with my boyfriend (NOT in the way you are thinking :P Or is it...;D ). Getting fit and healthy will give me that energy boost and stamina boost to live life the way I WANT to!

5. Blog More!
~ Because I was terrible at it in 2012! I love blogging, but I just didn't do it enough, and I totally want to get back into it, not just on this one, but on my media one too, where I will be reviewing local events as well as films, games and music! I don't want to be blogger famous, I just want to bring people good reading! If you have any tips or ideas for me, just comment below!

6. Save up enough money to do what I want!
~ This is a grouped one, because I want to go on holiday, and build my PC, and other things! But I am terrible at saving money, so this one will be a challenge for me! I've already started a budget sheet where I write down my daily spends on it and money coming in and out! This month I'm not doing too well...but I am trying haha!! Once I get my computer, I can do things like make a video game, edit drawings on photoshop, and review games better!! So over all, saving money would improve my life, haha!



7. Be a better girlfriend
~ Because I am a bit selfish to be honest, so this one I am dedicating to my boyfriend so I can make him happy. which will make me happy!

So there you have it, that's my personal goals for 2013! I've already started working on one or two, its baby steps, but I will get there! I will be happier by the end of the year, not a new me, but an improved me! Kitty 2.0!



STAY BEAUTIFUL and thank you for reading!
