HAUL // Oxford Street, London

Hey there! I popped up into London yesterday to meet up with Amber considering it was her birthday a couple of weeks ago and we're used to seeing each other every day (not once a month!). After spending 45 minutes trying to find her in Kings Cross Station (words cannot explain how much I dislike  that station) we popped up to Oxford Street for a spot of shopping. What started out as a disastrous day ended up in me spending WAY too much money so I need to sort through everything I bought and make sure I actually need it all. I organised 3 black sacks of clothes last night to get rid of - that helps right?

OOTD // Leather in london

Hello there! I've had such a busy week this week and I hope the summer stays just like it! I popped into London on Wednesday to see QI being filmed (after being told it was postponed from the Tuesday - what a nuisance!). After a lot of rearranging I eventually made it (and got within the first 10 people due to the others seeing Loose Women first. Brilliant!)

OOTD // Simple Pleasures

This is my first OOTD post in months! I usually take photos in one of the full length mirrors I have at home but I do not have that luxury at uni. I have to stand on my bed to look in my mirror on the wall to see if I look relatively presentable. I know what you are thinking - 'buy a mirror!' - but even if I did I would have nowhere to put it.

Basically, I got a new camera for my birthday from my lovely father. It has the sensor of an SLR but is in the body of a tiny point and shoot. Therefore it is easier to take photos at strange angles.  Fantastic huh? I do realise that you can't really see the trousers but yeah - I'll just have to explain them.

Excuse the messy floor! How filthy to my lab shoes look?!

Instagram Update #9

Hello everyone!
Here is another update. It looks like, pretty soon, my blog is just going to end up as Instagram updates of my life. The thing is, it is so quick and easy to post a photo on Instagram and I still have no SD card and I hate taking proper blog photos on my phone - simple as. I can't do any OOTD because I don't have a full length mirror OR any extra time in the morning to sort out a camera with tripod etc. With three 9am starts and 2 10 am starts I already have to leave the house before 8/9 most days. Let me tell you - it's not easy sorting out an outfit in the morning! I only have a small mirror on the wall so I have to stand on my bed and adjust my outfit every morning. If I leave my curtains over one morning I bet any passers-by would be in fits of laughter - it has to be a sight to see!

Anyway - here's my update!

it's definitely sweater weather / such a cute book / thorpe park / full beam / polymer chemistry rocks / the fur is back

Instagram Update #7

Hi guys! Sorry I haven't been posting for this past week or so. I've moved into my house for my second year of uni! Wow - a second year of chemistry. If someone said to me four years ago that I'd be doing a degree in chemistry and would actually get onto the second year I would not believe them one bit. However, here we are and I'm actually super excited for lectures to start tomorrow. Unfortunately I can't do a big post showing off my room because I've managed to lose 2 SD Cards (don't tell father) so Instagram will have to do.

My desk is already a mess / I want more bunting / A cheeky souvenir from London / How perfect is that card? / Off to the pub / A cheeky Sunday morning shopping trip

Haul Time // Primark and Matalan

After not shopping for over 2 weeks (I know right) I finally made it to Lakeside to get my shop on. I managed to only spend about £30 and I am very proud of that. However, I also managed to pop into my local Matalan store and take advantage of the further reductions. Here are a few of the things I picked up!

Oh dear, I've been shopping again.

Hello there! This is just a quick post of some of the things I've treated myself to this past month (excluding T supplies!). I said I was going to cut down on my shopping and I have - a lot! Well, kind of. Anyway, here we go!

OOTD // Then the walls of my town, they came crumbling down

I'm so sorry I haven't posted in almost a week! I have been doing absolutely nothing but going to supermarkets, reading Pride and Prejudice and watching awful films on Netflix. I want to do a few posts but with my Macbook playing up it is just such an effort to take photos and upload them. Tesco gave my mum a "£2 off when you buy an SD card" so I think that this is a sign that I need to get a new SD card for my camera. Pointless story over...here's my outfit!

Mini Primark and River Island Haul!

I had to pop into the Apple Store to take my Mac to the geniuses. After being told that to fix my laptop I may have to pay £350 I probably shouldn't have bought what I did. Oh well, here is what I picked up anyway!

I got this feeling on a summer day when you were gone (OOTD)
