January Musings & Inspo

Oh hey! Ok so its definitely too late to say happy new year but... I hope you've all had a great start to 2018 so far. I wont lie, it feels like its been January for 100 years and I've never longed for a pay day as much as I have this one, but February is in sight and I'm pretty happy about that!

As usual, January made me feel a bit meh (doesn't it for everyone?), the weather in particular, I'm so done with rain and grey skies and just ready for spring/summer now. Especially as this means I can start dressing more for those seasons (summer fashion > winter fashion every time)!

The only things keeping me somewhat inspired through the dreary month of January have been Pinterest and a few lovely bloggers/youtubers that I can't get enough of atm (mostly Megan Ellaby & Sophia & Cinzia).

As you can see, theres a bit of a theme here - loungewear, joggers, tracksuits, comfy clothes, whatever you wanna call them, I'm into it all! Honestly though, I can't stop buying joggers, jumpers and cosy clothes, maybe its the cold weather but I'm just loving wearing them at the moment (scrap the cold weather thing, I'm gonna be wearing these well into summer lets be honest).

 I'm also v into anything with stars or moons on at the moment, especially jewellery! I have some beautiful new necklaces and earrings from Accessorize that I am looooving atm, see pic below - Jade is v into them also it would seem :') 

So goodbye January and hello Feb, plz be kinder in the weather department to us mancunians, thaaanks!

Goodbye Summer 17

So the Summer months are pretty much over *cries* and I'm not quite ready to start thinking about wearing jumpers or real shoes again yet. Instead I thought I'd document Summer on here, because I had a moment of "what did I even do?!", so here goes!

/ days in Manchester / coffee dates in cute places / bike rides with my dad / ate a lot of food / 

~ became obsessed with these pom pom earrings & wore them all the time (will also continue to*) ~

/ went to Croatia! honestly the best trip - you can see more/read about it here, here and here! /

/ went to my first ball as part of an amazing team at Smartworks / PASSED MY DAMN DRIVING TEST!? / played junk yard golf / ate more food /

/ turned 25 and had the best weekend ever! minus the hangover - definitely didn't grow any wiser *flashbacks to vodka being poured in mouth* *shudders* /

/ celebrated 3 years with my love! /

/ went on many a night out /

/ had some wonderful brunches /

/ chopped all my hair off! /

/ experienced my first ever Pride parade <3 /

/ I went to F.R.I.E.N.D.S fest and got to chill in Monicas/Joey & Chandlers apartment! As well as recreate the opening credits eeeee /

/ celebrated our beautiful friends wedding /

/ celebrated Roushs 26th! /

/ and did other things like parks on sunny days / baby shower / also that the food at Altrincham Markets are worth the hype! (the crowds arn't though) /

So those were my highlights! I know everrryone says it, but I seriously don't know where this year has gone, let alone Summer! Its crazy, fastest year by far. I'm still not ready to accept its under 4 months until Christmas (vom) AS IF? HOW?!

Here's to Autumn/Winter...really, how am I saying those words?!

Favourite things / What I've been up to

Oh hey! I hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend gorging on chocolate and everything else (I know I did!). I wanted to do a little inspo post/things I've been loving recently. I'm so excited that we're finally in spring and my holiday to Croatia is slowly but surely creeping up! (1 month to go eeee!). I also took a bit of a different approach adding some little illustrations & type, putting that good old art degree into use eh! (jk) but no, I am actually loving doing this style way more than just typing about it! Hope you like it :)
