Jumper - Topshop, Shirt - UO Renewal, Jeans - Jack Wills, Converse - Office

Quick outfit for you, not done one in ages! I am back home now for the christmas holidays so some of you may notice iim in front of my usual wall and my lovely brother is taking my photos again. Hopefully i will be able to get some more frequent outfit shots for you over christmas!

This is quite a typical me outfit. As much as i love wearing skirts, dresses and tights you cant beat a pair of jeans, a big shirt and a jumper. I am actually looking out for a new pair of black skinny jeans. I love the really dark colour of these, but didnt realise at the time how low rise they were so they just annoy me! Got to love high waisted jeans :)

Its not something i mention often on here (because i know most people wont care haha) but i am a big football fan and support one of my local teams Bradford City. Tonight me and my dad are going to watch them and it is going to be one of the biggest games i have ever been too! We are playing at home against Arsenal in the cup with a sell out crowd! *excited squeal*

Bringing it back to something more relatable.. nails. This is my latest christmas nail art, a wintery snowflake design.

Its really simple to do but i love how pretty it is and it goes with loads of outfits because its not too bright. Will be doing a big post on christmas nail art soon!

And i cant forget to mention the new illustration i have in my sidebar! It was done buy the wonderful Hannah who also writes a lovely blog so make sure you go and check that out :)

 Top - urban outfitters, Shorts - M+S, Sunglasses - urban outfitters

Another exam down! Only 5 more to go. These photos were taken yesterday in this perfect weather we seem to be having. It must have been at least 23 degrees round where i live, which makes it pretty hard to stay inside and revise. My sister is also on study leave so we took a trip down to town around lunch time and went to a lovely little cafe. We also bought some bits from wilkinsons, i cant seem to help but buy little home things in there! In the evening we had our first bbq of the year. It was a delicious mismash of what we had in the fridge and freezer.

The shorts in the photos are literally my new favourite thing. They are a great fit (aka. covering my whole bum) and i love the style of them. I had always wanted some levis but they just never seem to fit right, these are the perfect alternative.

In case you hadnt heard me go on about it enough, it bloggers boutique on saturday and now that i have that exam out of the way i am even more excited. I think i have decided on what i am wearing but will still have to bring several outfits to london with me just incase i change my mind! I am getting the train down tomorrow with my boyfriend. The trains are gonna be pretty horrible and stuffy, so i really hope the journeys okay. Still need to decide how to do my nails..

Keep enjoying this lovely weather! If it carries on like this i may have to get the bikini and paddling pool out haha.

Hear those crocodiles ticking 'round the world

Not the greatest 'outfit post' seeing as you cant really see my outfit. But the photos where you can didnt come out all that well, so you'll have to make do with my face. The shirt is from urban renewal and i bought it a while ago, become a pretty key piece for me, i love it. The grey hoody is from american apparel. You cant see it very well but my necklace is the cutest thing. Its 3 little vintage chairs in gold and silver, wish i knew what shop it was from, because it was given to me as a present. Is it bad that i am more likely to post frequently when i have revision to do?!

Put some new shoes on

Urban outfitters - £35

Got some new shoes yesterday when i was out shopping in leeds. I have been looking for winter boots for ages. Bought some from urban outfitters online a while ago but they just didnt fit properly and had sold out in other sizes. Then i ordered a brown lace up pair from topshop which were too narrow, surprising though cause i have really narrow feet anyway! Tried a couple of pairs on in leeds yesterday but none were quite right till i saw these bargains under a clothes rack. They are so comfy i could wear them as slippers! And are fur lined all the way through so should hopefully keep my feet warm through these next cold months.

I am really looking forward to christmas now. Done all my shopping, all the decorations are up, relaxing into the holidays. Now just waiting till all the family arrive on christmas eve :) Its my favourite part about xmas because they live in london and new york i dont get to see them that often. Love having everyone together, and happy.

Knitted dress - Topshop

Glitter clutch - Urban Outfitters

Heels - Matalan

Just a couple of pieces i am lusting after at  the moment. The shoes i saw over at Claires blog, but i really need to get away from black heels! Maybe these in a different colour? Especially since most of my dresses are black. This dress is like the perfect dress for christmas. I  love the colour of it and all the detailing round the top. But its pretty expensive for what it is so i am hoping it goes in the sale or they have a big discount day. Ive been meaning to buy this clutch for a while and probably will now its free delivery. Its the perfect size for phone, cards and a bit of money. Just what i need to festive up an outfit when i go to town.

What do you guys love at the moment?

2. Topshop £36

3. Urban Outfitters £75

4. Urban Outfitters £75

Its already getting pretty cold so i need to hurry up in buying some winter boots. But i cant decide which pair to get. These are some of my favourites. I was drawn the the Deena & Ozzy lace ups last time i was out shopping, but never bought them. What are your favourite boots this season?

These are my most recent purchases. I have a few more things too but they didnt photograph very well.. Question is, do i keep the hat or not?

What things have you bought recently? I love seeing things that people have bought, gives me a lot of inspiration.

Pumps: Urban Outfitters

Life would be boring without challenges.

Top: Urban Outfitters - Skirt: Topshop - Rings: UO + Vipxo

Got another outfit post for you. I wore this out today to see my boyfriend after he finished work. But i added a jumper, coat, scarf and shoes cause my god it was cold! I bought this top in the sale at UO over a year ago but i still love to wear it. The skirt is also old topshop stock, i could really do with some new skirts. On my list whilst shopping tomorrow. My ring collection has been steadily growing. I got the bird ring from my sister for xmas. It is so much nicer than the primark bird ring which i bought myself before i got this one.

Whenever it hits the weekend these days i seem to forget about doing work, which means i have a heck of a lot to do on sunday evening. Ah well. I am going shopping in Leeds with two close friends who i have rarely seen since i moved schools. Got a few bits and pieces to return and a few things that i want to buy. Hope everyones weekend is going well :-)

ribbons and bows

1,2,3,4

I was looking through the sales and at the moment i could really do with a few more skirts and dresses. This skirt isnt usually my type but its a steal at £9.99. Admittedly the other things arent in the sale but they are too lovely to be ignored. I think the cardigan is too expensive for what it is but i really do love the style and the colour. The rings are just what i want. Animals in gold on a ring. Its just a shame that the postage is £5 or i would have probably ordered them already. Hope your new year has started well.

Owl ring

1,2,3,4

I actually think these all go together quite nicely. I really like the colour of the shirt (seem to be liking this colour in everything at the moment). I created the image for this post a few days back and since then the owl ring seems to have sold out, i did see one in my local store yesterday though. Tried these shoes on today too, my feet are really narrow which means i kind of slip out of them :( plus my boyfriend didnt seem too happy that i was taller than him in them.
ps. i forgot to add on how excited i am about christmas in 3 sleeps!
