Neon Lights


I was once told I shouldn't wear things like this bodysuit as I have 'boobs'. I was really angry at this, as why should what I wear be limited by the fact that I have something that is so natural and part of my body, such as 'boobs'?!
 It's disheartening that this was said to me, I think every girl/woman should be proud of the body that they are in and should wear what feels comfortable to them and their body shape. For me, I feel that if I were to hide my breasts, then I would feel really uncomfortable and frumpy. It has taken me a while to get used to me curvier shape over the years, and have realized instead of trying to hide it, I should embrace it. 
Sorry if I sound a bit preachy or like I'm ranting, I been thinking about righting about this on my blog for a while now. It bothers me that people are told that they should be a certain shape/size and people actually believe this! So felt that I should write about one of my experiences and my feelings on this subject. Have any of you had anything similar happen to you? 

Anyways....I'll talk about something else before I continue to rant!!!! Let's talk about the clothes.  Heels are my feet's biggest love, but lately they've been enjoying the company of the flatter kind of shoes! Sometimes, I find that heels are much more comfier than flat shoes, as flat shoes I find tend to be a lot narrower. I finally have some flat shoes that aren't docs or converse, thanks to my mum :D These shoes are so fun, they remind me of going to school a bit, but they seem to go with everything! When I took these photos, some of them came out really funny, I don't want to traumatize you but if you want to have a look and have a laugh, I'll have them posted here.

Oh yeahhhh.....I'm going to post some things on ebay today, have a look!

Acid Wash Dreams


Shorts. I honestly don't think I can live without them! Though I think my obsession with them may have gone a bit overboard, I have at least 15 pairs! But with these pair, they are so beautiful! They are my dream pair; they're highwaisted, I can make them longer or shorter and they are acid wash! And what made them even better was the fact that I only got them  for £1.04. Ebay you make me so happy! 

As I said in my last post, I was thinking of putting some stuff on Ebay! And right now I'm selling a really pretty pair of shorts. I wish I could keep them, but alas, they are much to small for me! If you want to have a look, you can find it here....SHOP!

Out and About


Hihihi! Here's an outfit I wore to work the other week! Sometimes it's really annoying to dress for work, as it can be ridiculously hot inside but a lot colder outside! It can be hard to find that balance. You can't see it in these photos, but the Mickey Mouse top actually had the sleeves cut off and has a long slit down both sides. It is such a brilliant top, one that's easy to layer but I can also breathe in. I kinda feel as if I've let it down somewhat as I didn't wear it too much in the summer.  

I may sell some things on ebay, I realized recently that I have a lot of clothes I just don't wear. Maybe if I put them up, they might get worn by somebody else, rather just sitting in the back of my wardrobe. I'll post a link, if I do end up putting stuff up.

A Happy 2 Years

 

This blog is now (well a week or two ago...shhhhhhhhh) 2 YEARS OLD! Yayyyyyy!! To celebrate such a fact, I decide to give my blog a treat and give it a make over! Haha. It's not a major change, but one I felt necessary. I want to say A BIG THANK YOUUU to all my gorgeous and wonderful readers, who have taken time out and continue to read this blog!! You guys are brilliant!
While we are celebrating one Birthday, we may as well celebrate another. It was my mum's birthday not too long ago, and here are some of the photos that I took with the family! Please note, the wonderful faces my brother deliberately pulls in these photos. He cracks me up!

She Wants To Know


I'm still stuck in polka dot land! Playsuits are really fun! I love the shape of this one too, reminds me of pin up girls. Lately the weather has felt more like Autumn than Summer, so I won't be able to wear this by itself anymore which is a shame. I'm slowly gaining rings, my favourite being my new addition, which is the long silver one. I don't normally wear so many rings at once, but I like how they look together. But I think anymore than two on each hand is overkill

My post title is the name of a song by a friend of mine, Joel Compass, and you can listen to it here:
You should definitely give it a listen, he is ridiculously talented!! You can find him on Soundcloud! Do it! Do it! And you can also like him on Facebook.
