I know, I'm wearing another pair of shorts! I really can't help it. Even though the weather isn't nice and sunny outside, I still revert to shorts as my go to. For me shorts are the easiest thing to wear and the easiest thing to  pair with other items of clothing. What can I say? I'm lazy! 

The other day something really amazing happened, I did my daily checking of my emails and when I signed out I was greeted by the best sight! My outfit on wiwt.com was featured on the msn homepage :D I literally screamed and the print screened it haha. Its not on the homepage anymore but you can still see it on the website here. Or for you lazy people:

Sorry I haven't been posting as regularly as I should. It seems my body really, really dislikes being healthy so has hit me with a week and a half long illness. Stupid body. Pfffftttt. I even lost my voice at one point, which for me is scary. But luckily it seems like its going away and am feeling a lot better.

A lot of this outfit is comprised of Christmas presents, the pretty ring and necklace is from Nancy and the gorgeous daisy shirt is from my boyfriend. Thank youuu both! They know me so well. Keeping up with my addiction with Bitching and Junkfood shorts, these are my 8th pair. Ridiculous I know, but these shorts have been on wishlist forever and sold out almost instantly months ago. So when a friend found them for me, they were mineee.

Evil Twin

So in keeping with my goals of the year, here's another post this week! I really hope that I can keep my posting regular, haha, but we'll see how it goes. 

This dress was a present from my boyfriend for Christmas. Evil Twin is one of my favourite brands, but I've never owned anything by them until now! The dress arrived a few days before New Years, and it was so hard not to wear it then and there, like I do with any other new clothes I get. But decided to save it until New Year's Eve. I think that's the most restraint I've ever shown with clothes, maybe I have a problem :D

2012

Happy New Year!! Can't believe it's 2012 already, last year seemed to whizz by so fast! I spent New Year's Eve with a cold, but at least I went into the new year laughing my head off as Brian and I were watching The Hangover Part 2. How was your New Year? 

My wardrobe has grown rapidly in the holiday season and I have so much to show to you! I treated myself to two pairs of Jeffrey Campbell's, luckily they were both on sale so didn't feel like I was spending too much money. And more shockingly, I have purchased not one, but two pair of jeans. For some reason, I grew out of any fondness for denim that was any longer than my knee, but now the fondness has been renewed in my new pairs! Though it has been rather weird wearing jeans again, my mum is pleased haha. I always look cold apparently. 

Around this time of year we are meant to have new year resolutions, but these always seem to be disregarded or just forgotten about. To be honest I've never really had a list of resolutions, so it seems only fitting that I at least attempt a list. Here are my goals for this year:

♥ To save more money

♥  Try and limit my spending to only one or two items a month

♥  Get into drama school

♥  Go rock climbing

♥  Blog once a week

♥  Meet other bloggers

♥ Travel more 

♥ Do some DIY

♥ Go to dance classes 

♥ Learn Japanese properly, its getting embarrassing only knowing a few basics!

Haha not the most inventive list but hey, those are the things I want to do and I'm sure as the year goes on, my list will grow. Also something of note, this is my 100th POST! I love the fact that the first post of the year is also my 100th. Thank you to everyone who reads this blog, without you this blog wouldn't be here! You are all seriously wonderful and I hope you all have a great year :D
