Hello Stranger

Oh wow! I knew my blogging habits had been bad but my last post was Happy New Year and we are fast approaching April. When did that happen?!
The end of last year and up until last week have been crazy busy. Predominantly with Uni related things but it is now the Easter holidays and while I still have a list of things that need doing before next term, I'm ignoring them for this week. Although they are starting at me from the corner like a evil little gremlin. As far as I'm concerned I'm due a break and as the weather has been seriously lush this week (I am writing from my giant bean bag in the garden) I have given myself the week off to catch up on some well needed me time. This also means attending to my seriously neglected blog. I have missed you *hugs blog*.
I need to get all my ideas down and figure out where to start on all the things I want to chat about so for now I'm going to leave you with some photos to show what I've been up to over the last few months. Including turning 27, finishing my second school placement, doing insane amounts of shopping that do not match my student lifestyle or bank balance and realising that my life is based almost entirely around food...

Happy New Year

Happy New Year everyone! I have been a very bad blogger over the last few weeks. I had lists of ideas and good intentions for a variety of blog posts over the festive period but the time just flew away with me. Before I knew it it was the beginning of January and all of my ideas seemed a wee bit past it and not really all the relevant. So I shall have to save some of them for next year instead.

I have made a few visits to the shops since Christmas to have a look at the sales. I have to say that in general I hate sale shopping. The people, the mess, the fact that most of the things on the rails are hideous that I swear I never saw in the shops when things were full price. However I have managed to lay my hands on a few bits and pieces that will make lovely additions to my wardrobe.

Topshop navy blazer with black lapels Was £65 Now £20

Topshop teal midi chiffon dress Was £50 now £15

Zara floral dress Was £49 Now £29

Detail

Zara off white chiffon blouse Was £29 Now £19

Topshop teal jersey dress with belt Was £38 Now £10

It's my birthday in a few weeks so I think the chiffon dress might make an appearance when I go out with my friends.

Have you got anything good in the sale?
