A BIT DRESSED UP

Clothes are a funny thing. Monday to Friday you’ll most probably see me sporting comfortable trousers, a pair of new balance trainers, and a long jacket or cardigan. But come the weekend and i practically dive head first into my wardrobe and really allow myself the simple pleasure of ‘dressing up’. Although I was only going for lunch and a chingwag with Jess (who very kindly took these photos for me), I thought when on earth was the last time i threw some nice clothes on, did my hair nicely and threw on some makeup? Don’t get me wrong, dressing up and looking fancy isn’t some sort of prerequisite, but i’ll be damned if i don’t say, it’s so so so much fun!

My entire outfit was very much based around my bag, which is stupendously cute if i might add. The shape, the size, how classic it is.. I was very much the heart-as-eyes-emoji when this arrived in the post, and i’ve taken it upon myself to wear it with every single fancy dress/outfit i’ve worn since it’s arrival. It’s love y’all. True love.

In other news, it is really hard balancing blogging whilst working and trying to get university work and portfolio’s done. In fact, it is SUPER hard, so although i have a crap load of photos in my camera, i have little to no time to edit them and write up posts so apologies for my weird dippy in-n-out posting as of late! I still do read every single comment, even if i have yet to reply to them all! Give me a month or two and hopefully things will be a little less crazy, and speaking of less crazy… I should probably write an update to my ‘Life After University’ post, because boy do I have some stories to share!

As always, have a wonderful week, buy yourself some new lipstick, eat some pancakes, and be merry!
