OOTW-Week 11- "Only know you love her when you let her go, and you let her go"

Image
After a few weeks of being back home it still hasn't sunk in that my first year of university is finally complete. I'm starting to feel regulated now by having a routine of work, although I miss the hustle and bustle of uni life. It's too quiet and calm whereas I'm so used to the noise and the manic spur of the moment events that occurred. I do really miss Southampton; my girls and the shopping (of course) and also the independence I had there, I'll be returning soon though sure enough. Here are my outfits of the week: Top Left : A lounging day at home I wore- Off the shoulder jumper from Hollister , Aztec print shorts from Topshop and Tights from Primark. Top Right: An evening out with the family I wore- Cord patterned blazer from Primark , Scallop vest top from Topshop and Checked treggings from Topshop . Bottom Left: My last day in Southampton I wore- Denim shirt from Primark, Skull printed vest top from Topshop , Leggings ...

Home is where my heart remains; my 21st

Image
After counting down from September the moment finally came for my 21st birthday! I was annoying everyone with me telling them day after day how many days and hours was left till the big day, but when the day finally came I couldn't of asked for a more perfect day.The boyfriend came round at half 11 as he wanted to be there when it was finally my birthday-soppy but very cute. Then the rest of the morning was spent with my mum as she FINALLY had a whole day off, so it was nice to have a catch up. Later at night I went for a meal at Toros, which is a steak house in Rothwell which is absolutley beautiful. I especially recommend the Strawberry wine! I went with my closest friends and family and was surprised at the end with a homemade Chanel handbag birthday cake which was delicious. I was then whisked back to town where I was ushered downstairs to see my friend had organised a suprise birthday party with a few of my favourite people, cue me walking in when One Direction was playing- ...

Micro Bond Hair Extensions

Gosh its been a while hasn't it? I'm still catching up with my mountain of university work aswell as finding work/internships for the summer and mountaining the job I have at the moment. Although being home is the best feeling in the world, to not only come back to my king size bed and proper food but to also see my loved ones that I've missed. I'm one of them girls that likes to change their hair everytime I go to the hairdressers as I get bored so easily, Maddie always loves the challenge of doing something new to my hair and does it with beauiful results. However this trip to the hairdressers resulted me going back to my favourite hair trend, ombre and trying something different. In the salon I regularly go to in my hometime called Russos they are doing an offer on Micro Bond hair extensions for £190, including 2 free blow dries which is a bargain! As normal retail price for the extensions and fitting can cost up to £300, and Laura my friend that does them in the sal...

OOTW-Week 7 "One way or another, I'm gonna see ya"

Image
I'm writing this post a day early due to the fact it's my beautiful sisters birthday tomorrow and unfortunately I'll be spending it on a coach back to Southampton. I have never missed any of my siblings birthday's before so I'm gutted I have to miss hers, although when I'm back next week I have a few surprises up my sleeves for her. I'll keep you posted on them! In my last OOTW entry I was saying how the sun is starting to rear its head again, but unfortunately I was very wrong. It was so cold and dull last week my bed became even more tempting to hibernate in. Here are my four favourite outfits of the week: Top Left: A casual freezing day at university I wore- Cut out shoulder jumper from River Island , Heart necklace from Primark , Dogtooth printed treggings from Topshop and Nike blazers. Top Right: A busy day shopping and at university I wore- Dark purple pepulum top from Primark , Studded wait belt from Primark , Mid sleeved cardigan from Top...

OOTW-Week 3- "You turned out to be the best thing I never had"

Image
I can't believe how quick this week has rushed by, I can't remember the majority of things that have happened and for once I was only drunk one night... well maybe two but that was my bosses fault. With university work escalating up by the second and me struggling to reach the top, I went home for a bit of me time and to be around my loved ones. I always thought going to university your closest friends would slowly start to drift away and forget the memories you had together, but this week has shown what an amazing group of friends I truly do have. Though not to forget my family who never cease to amaze me with how supportive they are, I couldn't ask for anything more! Anyway enough of my soppyness, here are my five favourite outfits of this week: Top Left: A cold early morning in Southampton I wore a Lace insert dress from Topshop , Patterned woolly cardigan from Topshop , Topshop Leggings and Internacionale High Tops. Top Right : For a night out I wanted a more c...

Back home for Christmas

Image
I've been back in Northamptonshire now for a week and it still hasn't sunk in that I'm home. Even after the endless breakfasts and cups of tea in bed thanks to my loving mother and getting bitten by my adorable yet annoying kitten. After three months in Southampton, I've been calling that my home and starting to adapt to my different surroundings, though returning back to my true home it's as though nothings changed. Everything is still the same, the same people, sort of the same businesses and the same dramas there were even when everyone left. In my first week I walked through my front door to find my mother had over decorated the house for another year, but I wouldn't expect anything different. My kitten to have grown a lot and that its started to become like a child I had to watch every two seconds to see what it was up to, with it constantly taking and hiding my things. Then I returned to my normal routine with a typical Thursday night out with my work lo...
