Well, if you were crazy, they wouldn't make sense to you. Self-doubt is a sure sign of sanity








Coat: Topshop, Jumper: New Look, Jeans: Primark, Boots: Asos, Hat: George at Asda, Hair: Halo*

Finally it's the right weather for me to wear my hat! I got this a while ago but haven't had the right opportunity to wear it yet. I hate wearing hats unless it's freezing, there's nothing worse than a super hot sweaty head!

When i wore this outfit the other day I was super happy with it but it’s weird how things look different in photographs, the jeans seem to make my legs look a lot more chunky then they usually are. 

I'm also wearing my new hair extensions from Halo, I won’t say much about them now as I'm planning to post a review on them soon but I am really impressed with the quality of them so far. It’s been ages since I've owned a pair of extensions so I’m looking forward to styling long hair. 

On a side note is anyone having problems with the quality of photos via blogger? My photos look really good quality until I post them on blogger?

Crazy lady in a jumper




Blazer: Asos, Jumper: Tesco, Shirt: Boohoo, Jeans: Primark, Shoes: Primark 

I feel like a little boy in this outfit, I think its the combination of wearing brogues and a blazer together, that being said I love it. It's so comfy, warm and ideal for Autumn weather.

I'm still trying to get to grips with taking pictures using my tripod, my room has such bad natural lighting and there's always shadows on the walls that spoil the quality of the images but I'm sure I'll get the hang of it! 

Today I've had a super lazy day, I have so many things I need to do that I haven't even made a start on. I still have 45000 words to do on my book before the end of the month so I think I'm going to be in a complete panic to complete it. So expect a crazy lady towards the end of the month, that being said I am so determined to complete it, how difficult can it be?

My life is a book

Hands up if you've been feeling ill and rough in the last week?! I think everyone has and I'm certainly no exception on Sunday evening I came over really sick and I won’t go into description about the vomiting that took place but let’s just say I haven't looked photo worthy for a few days. I actually took these photos on Saturday when me and my boyfriend took a stroll around my local park but as I said I've been ill so I haven't had the chance to post them. 

Today I've been busy starting the Nanowrimo challenge that challenges writers to write 50,000 words in a month. That works out to be about 1666 a day, so far I've completed most of today's word count (only 100 to go, can’t be too hard right?) If there's any budding writers out there I challenge you to give it a go, and maybe we can swap work at the end?

What did everyone get up to yesterday for Halloween? I hope you all had a spooktacula evening. I spent the day in London visiting family.

I'll take you to the Galaxy and back






Jumper: New Look (old), Skirt: Topshop, Boots: Asos, Socks: Topshop, Lipstick: ELF  in cheerful cherry

Today is my boyfriend’s birthday so today we have spent the day watching a movie and eating a crazy amount of muchies. It’s been a really lovely day, we watched Dark Shadows and I gave him a surprise birthday cake I made him (picture on my Facebook) and of course some presents. 

Last night we also went out for dinner and ate huge burgers before watching Paranormal Activity 4. I'm not going to talk about the film as I don't want to give any spoilers away plus I want to sleep tonight! I wore the above outfit out as I wanted to look nice for his birthday without looking over dressed for the cinema. This skirt is one of my favourite pieces I have bought for autumn, I'm a big fan of galaxy print but this has to be the best print I have found! 

The Chelsea boots are clearly a copy of the Topshop ones but literally half the price, they are so comfy and I completely recommend them.

On a side note if anyone is going to see Paranormal Activity then try not to jump and squeal like I did!

Happy Birthday!



My little blog was one last week and i completely forgot, so let's all wish it a belated birthday! Feel free to cut into a slice of cyber cake and enjoy the above video to celebrate!

I can't believe I've been blogging for over a year now, it really has flown by. When I think of what my blog was like when it started I'm so proud of how far its come! Lets be honest my first few blog posts were not the greatest and I'm pretty sure no one even read them!

I've spoken to some great people through my blog so thank you for following, reading, commenting and helping make my blog what it is!

Nerds wear glasses


Firmoo glasses model SD2249 in colour Amber*

Something most of you probably won’t know is that I actually need reading glasses, I love wearing glasses (although I don't wear them enough) so when Firmoo contacted me to review a pair of their glasses I couldn't resist! I'm sure lots of you have been reading reviews of Firmoo glasses; they seem to be taking the blogging world by storm, probably because they offer a free pair of glasses to new customers. Yes free! 

I've been wearing my glasses for nearly a week now, and so far I couldn't be happier. I love the design and colour and the quality is good considering the cheap prices Firmoo offer. I got my glasses matched to my current prescription and they are definitely true to form, I can see perfectly while wearing them. 

Glasses don’t have to be nerdy and frumpy there are so many great styles to choose from now, and Firmoo offer a large selection. I had to narrow my choice down from about 10 so I was definitely happy with their range.


My only negative about these glasses is that the frames are very plastic, however you can’t really complain considering the price difference compared to buying glasses at your local opticians. 

Firmoo also offer non-prescription lenses for fashion purposes, is the sexy secretary look in this autumn? 

For anyone that wears glasses I suggest you check out the Firmoo website here, try your free pair and  see what you think! If any of you do decide to get a pair I would love to see what ones you choose!

DIY school jumper







I purchased this jumper from the school uniform range for only £1.50 with the intention of bleaching it but chickened out so decided to add some studs! This is one of the easiest DIY's I have ever done. Simply push some studs through your fabric and bend shut. It's as simple as that!

I already had the studs at home but you can purchase them cheaply on Ebay, I found 100 for 99p from China.

Have you done any recent DIY's? If you give this a go then send me a picture I would love to see your creations.
