Winter Coats, Which ones are the best?

Image
It's that time of year when we're all thinking it's Christmas again, really?! I can't even remember what I did for New Years: But can anyone ?!  When shopping in our local Tesco's I came across a whole aisle of advent calendar's and item's dedicated to Christmas....it's here already. So it's time to dig out those Christmas jumpers and scarves;you know the ones your nan knitted you, even though your embarrassed to wear them they are the comfiest things known to man! Then get prepared for another very cold Christmas. I've been looking for a winter coat for a while now, but I'm so indecisive; do I want long coats or short, leather or no leather, fur or no fur?! So many decisions! Here are a few of my favourite coats I've stumbled across, make sure you get your NUS Card's and overdrafts ready... In trend for winter we have the military style style which can be seen fully within the shops, whether its from the structure of the coats or e...

Wednesday Wishlist- My top 10

Image
Well its the middle of the week, the day I hate the most as I know that instead of having a weekend of partying and spending time with my loved ones I will be running around behind a bar doing what I do best ha. Although one advantage of it being Wednesday is that tomorrow is pay day, my favourite day of the week, I haven't brought any clothes for about two weeks now, which for me is a miracle, I don't know how I've done it. So here are my top 10 items of clothing and even accessories that I am craving at the moment, and hopefully when pay day comes tomorrow I will be able to splurge my money on these beautiful items. Like every other woman I adore jewellery I cannot leave the house without having a bracelet,ring and a necklace on as I just feel plain without them. I'm an avid twitter person and I have been following Daisy Loves Jewellery for a while now and they re beautiful hand made bracelets and necklaces have been on my wish list for a long time now. Th...

The Vintage Set

 Sorry I haven't done a blog post in a while, Ive been stressing over my final exams in college and handing all my assignments in on time and making sure I had passed.. Which THANK HEAVENS I have and now I'm off to Southampton Solent University in September to do Writing with Fashion And Culture wooo. But this means I will be able to blog more as I have a bit of spare time on my hands at the minute. I recently came across this Vintage website on twitter called The Vintage Set ( http://thevintageset.com/ ) , Ive always loved vintage clothes, unfortunetly my mum dosen't have many of her old clothes from the 70's onwards that I could wear today. But within this site there is a variety of both clothes, jewellery  accesories and even bags that all range from the 70's onwards and they are beautiful with a brilliant price tag to match also- which is always a good start. They were advertising for a blogger so obviously I jumped at the chance, the website has an old postca...

An extra 3/4's of an hour in bed.. pure bliss

Image
So as my previous blog entry "Deciding on an outfit the night before= extra half hour in bed" did so well I decided to do another blog like this. It roughly takes me about an hour to get ready in the morning (maybe an hour and a half if I include my morning cuppa and a bowl of cereal) which isn't bad for a woman. Though sometimes that extra few minutes in bed can make all the difference! Recently my sister has been New York for her best friends hen weekend (very jealous, she saw Ben Stiller also- Out of Dodgeball-Hilarious) and she's one of those get up and go kinda women, so for once I wanted to prove her wrong and show that I would be ready on time (which would be a first). I chose my whole outfit include jewellery the night before, so that all I had to do in the morning was shower and do my makeup (my hair had been washed that night so all I had to do was straighten my fringe) SIMPLE.  This isn't a very clear picture but I've had these cowboy inspired...
