A Winter Christening

It's been a ridiculous amount of time since my last post but I never imagined my NQT (Newly Qualified Teacher) year would be so challenging! It's a pathetic excuse but there isn't enough hours in the day!

This weekend I actually took time out and visited the Clothes Show Live in the NEC Birmingham as I was fortunate to win tickets to go. It was a brilliant but very tiring day however, I did manage to nab a few bargains and I also met the lovely Fleur De Force who I have admired for a long time! Today, we had a Christening to attend in Rugby, near Coventry. It was my boyfriend's first cousin - Kitty's christening and I have never been to one before so I had a bit of a dilemma when trying to decide on what to wear this morning.


Eventually I settled on this floral jumpsuit from New Look's petite range, a River Island long length blazer from last year, a New Look clutch and my new Public Desire heels that I bought in the Clothes Show yesterday.



What did you lot get up to this weekend?


Lots of love!

Meet Taz!

It's been a while since my last post but I have been a very busy bee! Between returning from holidays and my stressful first week back at school I am extremely glad the weekend is finally here!

I also have some very exciting news! Last Sunday me and my boyfriend Sam, decided (after weeks of deliberating about it) that we were finally going to get a kitten. We have been living together for over 2 months now and we wanted a pet of our own and one that would also be quite independent as we often work long hours at our schools. We went to visit a lady with a litter of kittens and we ended up bringing this home...


Meet my new kitten Taz! He's an 8 week old male tabby and is probably the cutest thing ever! :)



He's been living with us almost a week now and he has most definitely settled in. He is the cheekiest and most mischievous little kitten ever! I have also never heard a cat with a 'meow' quite like him in my entire life! Every morning I have brushed my teeth whilst he has climbed from the floor, then clawed and pulled his way up my pyjamas and then into the sink! One evening this week whilst I was chopping some veggies for dinner he even thought it would be a good idea to climb his way up my legs and body and then sit on my head!


Despite his antics - I am very excited about the arrival of the newest member of our household. After all, how could you possibly get angry at this little face?


Lots of love!

My First Blog Post!




Hello!
I have always wanted to start a fashion blog but I have always been extremely busy with studying and teacher training. Now that I am an officially qualified Religious Studies teacher I felt that now was the right time to start one and see what happens!

For years I have been in awe of fashion bloggers and their amazing style and spend countless hours trailing through their photos on instagram. They have definitely been my source of inspiration to start this blog - along with my passion for fashion too.

I am currently staying in my grandparents home in Savigne, France over the summer holidays, it's been nice to relax even though the weather has been very cool and cloudy. Here are some photos of an outfit I wore for a day out in Poitiers this week. I loved this jumpsuit when I discovered it in Primark at the start of this month. However, I have never been able to buy a jumpsuit before as I have never found one I liked in petit range that would fit my 5'2 frame and I could never justify spending a lot of money on a jumpsuit that I wouldn't wear that often either! This tropical gem is too long for me however I simply could not leave it in the shop for that price! I hope you like how I have styled it and you enjoy the rest of this blog!
