New beginings
So, after another long break I am back online (sporadically until the 29th). I have moved to Epsom and live with wonderful girls, started my degree in Fashion Journalism at The University of Creative Arts and am happily unemployed for the first time!
I have so much to say yet such little time to type (9% left of my battery) so I will depart with my one and only purchase from the Christopher Kane collection (apart from the keyring!). I was lucky enough to get a preview of the collection the day before it's drop and used this viewing to my advantage.

Distance
Been a while, once again. Have been enjoying my summer holidays with traditional British flair.
I am now officially unemployed. It feels oddly nice but will miss my pals at Whistles greatly! Am moving to Epsom in a week and a half to start another new phase of my life. Fashion journalism here I come! (though might be going to Bestival via all this...)
None of my recent purchases spring to mind when typing this but needless to say I have spent any earnings I have made recently.
Instead, here are a few possible purchases:
Am in the market for more tshirts. Might just buy one though. But which, Im more drawn towards the candy floss print tee.
Recent pictures:
Norwich
London nights out
Weekend long hot tub party
London dungeons
Great Yarmouth
Whilst at home in Norwich this surfaced. Vintage C&A fur coat. Thanks Mum. Im set for winter.

Missing.
Wow, been quite a while hasn't it. I seem to of neglected blog-land, both reading others and posting on my own life. This blog was originally started to document my life simply as a nostalgic tool for myself in the future but when I started to gain readers I began to enjoy the feeling of sharing my life with others too. Now it feels as if my life isn't very exciting for others-hence the lack of posts (though ironically has become more exciting for myself!)
Anyway, I am busy enjoying my summer. The last month or so has entailed countless meals out with friends and loves, Norwich visits, a house party, catching up with old friends, meeting new friends, a weekend in Devon, theme parks, working, many nights out, finishing my last shift at Topshop for the summer, finding a house in Epsom, lots of driving, becoming increasingly messy in my own surroundings yet tidier in others and alot of shopping.
The rest of my summer will prove to bring much of the same with a weekend away at Big Chill festival in a few weeks and a house sitting promise in Norwich. I will also be living alone as of this weekend so it seems I will continue in the Carrie Bradshaw dream.
I suppose what should follow are a few of my recent purchases..?
World print leather holdall:
Whistles polka dot print silk dress:
Oonagh O'Hagen 'it' bag:
Whistles silk shorts:
Black Office heels:
H&M beach sunset print t-shirt dress:
Studded sandals:

Countdown
Am being quite lazy at the moment, my excuse being revision hell. Last exam tomorrow!!
My week since my previous post has entailed exams and work (both Whistles and Topshop), a houseparty last Saturday and casual park lounging with old friends.
Today I popped into Blackheath for a bite to eat at Cafe Rouge. As we were walking home we passed Cancer Research with a familiar jacket in the window-and what do you know, it's a piece from the Tux Delux Topshop limited edition range, if I remember rightly retailing around £70ish each. We went in and looked at it and it was in my size and £8!
In another spell of procrastination I found this summery dress on ebay-should I buy?
I returned the black ASOS dress and made up for my loss with these. Since the Steve Maddens were sold out everywhere in UK in my size (karma for deliberating about which colour to buy) I got these. They look cheaper then the Madden's (and YSL!) but they were half the price so!

Broadcast Yourself
Slightly sporadic post today. Summary of my week in short: Monday I went to Graduate fashion Week. Got a little starstruck from viewing Susie Bubble through her perspex 'bubble'. Tuesday called for revision and no play. Yesterday was J's 20th birthday and the first two of my four English Literature exams (this time next week I will be done for the summer!). Last night we had casual birthday celebrations entailing cake, wine and monopoly. Saturday we are having a house party.
Here is the cake I made for J, slightly girly for a 20-year old boy but yummy nonetheless.
Yesterday two dresses I ordered from ASOS arrived:
Am considering sending the black one back. Ironically it's the one in my size as I had to buy the second too large-if anyone knows a good tailor in South East London or London in general let me know!
Really want this dress now, although being about £100 more then the black one can I justify it?
Or perhaps a Markus Lupher tee?
As I seem to have no spare time on my hands at the moment, with revision and work I only seem capable of searching the easily shopped sites such as ASOS and Topshop. I haven't done an eBay trawl in weeks. Hopefully next week all of this will change!

In the summer time
Yesterday I wore my new Topshop Livid shoes over black skinny jeans with just a simple v neck tshirt. I loved it! Wish I had taken a pic to show as the shoes look their best hugging the bottom of jeans. really shows off the detail and embellishment.
Have been thinking alot about summer recently and although I am yet to book anything I am thinking of options.
Here is my swimwear shortlist thus far. Am limiting myself to one-but which?? Help!
This is me in my one-piece from last year: (Looking a little plump.)
