A pair of perfect shoes ♥

Possibly the most perfect pair of heels ( that are within my budget) ever!

Topshop-£62

I fell in love with these beauties the minute i layed eyes on them.
high skyscraper heel? yes 
black go with everything? yes 
legs look longer? yes 
cant walk in them? yes 

They are everything that a heel should be! 
I cant walk in them so they are definitely a 'stand still and look pretty' kind of shoe.
If only i didn't work in Topshop my bank account would be a lot happier.

The Charity Shop in Hockley!

To say i know Nottingham like the back off my hand , i have never come across this place before.
The charity shop is basically well, a charity shop but rather than selling just general mish mash like most of them this one sells the cutest little vintage treasures.
The shop supports a charity called the Aegis trust which prevents crime against humanity. Its only a tiny shop with is situated in Hockley near to most of the more well known vintage/charity shops in Nottingham.
Its shares a doorway with oxfam ( which is also decent for the odd item or two). The Charity Shop is definatley one of those little shops that i am going to keep on going back to , im so happy to have discovered it. :).

brown leather bag - £4.50
big brown leather bowler bag - £7.00

A lovely weekend in Leeds!

So, i went to Leeds for a few nights last weekend and i loved it 
Its such a nice place and everyone is so friendly and people actually smile at you in the street.
The city itself is so cute and extremely good for shopping, there's a lovely little arcade type thing called Victoria quarter  which is majorly adorable. And there's so many  little boutiques and individual shops that are well worth a look in. I spent far too much on food, drink and random little pieces, really did treat myself.


I initially went to Leeds to go to the Leeds met university open day ( which i loved) but then my friend invited me to stay with him for a few nights so obviously i took that offer straight up. It was so nice to have a weekend away and see Leeds properly and to see my friend as i hadn't seen him in forever. We also went to Wagamama's .. possibly my favourite restaurant ever at the moment, ahh heaven.


The weekend made me come to the conclusion that I WANT TO THERE FOR UNI!!!! 
I deffo want to do PR at Leeds and hopefully it would lead me to the perfect student experience.

I am in love with this ...

£95- Topshop
I have a major major crush on this cape, its simply gorgeous.
Firstly its a cape, secondly its camel therefore goes with absolutely anything and thirdly it looks amazingly snuggly and warm and just the sort of thing you would want to put on, on a cold winters morning.
I am in love and seeing as pay day is only a week away this cape is a potential contender for my wages.

Blog Virgin




Blogging’s a funny thing, don’t you think?
Its like broadcasting your life on the internet almost…
Sharing all your thoughts, advice, personal experiences on a web page so openly without a second thought, its weird.
On the other hand blogging lets you express yourself, share your thoughts and memories a little like a diary.

I am a total blog virgin,
 I was scared of .. people judging, people thinking what i would say is wrong until i realised nothing is wrong, well unless its factual.
There isn’t really such a thing as an incorrect opinion, or a wrong sense of fashion.
Everyone is entitled to an opinion , everyone is allowed to dress that way they want and everyone should be allowed to be the person they want to be.

so hello to the world of blogging….
