Little Winter Fashion Haul

Recently I bought a few things to refresh my winter wardrobe and thought I'd share them with you. I got a cute crew neck sweatshirt from Urban Outfitters . I had seen all the cute takes on Céline tshirts and sweatshirts a while ago, but had never purchased one. Then as I was looking through the sale rack I found this gem and had to get it! I love Céline Dion so this was a perfect fit for me:) I plan on wearing it with skinny jeans and sneakers or boots and maybe a chunky necklace. 


I also bought a pair of cream frilly socks from Topshop along with a cream sleeveless top that has a little mock turtle neck (I may or may not have completely made that term up). I though the socks would be perfect for my ankle boots. (I'm thinking about doing a winter shoe post, would you like that?) I think the top will look nice with a pair of high waisted jeans or skinny black dress pants. 


While I was out I also picked up a super cozy sweater that again I will wear with skinny jeans or black skinny pants.


 I grabbed a pair of festive socks too:) 


Hope you enjoyed that little haul! Have you bought any cute wintery clothes lately? I'm starting to really get excited for Christmas!!! Have a cozy day! Xx

"It's ok I don't bite"

"Come out, come out, wherever you are and meet the young lady, who fell from a star." So I didn't exactly fall from a star, but if you have seen the Wizard of Oz you know that this is from the scene where Glinda reassures all the munchkins about Dorothy. That's just kind of what I wanted to do with this post. 


I want to encourage you lovely readers to interact, I see blogging as a team effort, your part being able to give feedback or even be featured in a post. Whether you are a first time reader or you read my blog regularly, I would love for you to leave comments! Tell me what you like or don't like or what you would like to see in the future. Even if it's an anonymous comment and you feel more comfortable doing it that way, I would love to hear from you! You can also tweet me! I'd love to see a blog you are loving or a DIY you tried. One of my favorite things is to be inspired and I think twitter and blogger are two amazing ways to do so! So with December being quite a big month it would be my pleasure to hear from you as to about what you would like to see on the blog. Do you want more DIYS, more fashion posts, a bit about me personally? Tweet me or let me know in the comments please! I'll love you for ever and ever for it! So if you are reading this and no one has commented, put your soldier jacket on and be brave, be the first to comment! Maybe they'll be something special for the first commenter! Also, if you have a blog I don't mind if you put the link as a comment or tweet it to me. I know some people get annoyed by this, but as of now I'm not one of them and I'd love to read it! I hope you have a lovely rest of the day! Xx

Winter is nearly here!

You know it's nearly winter when everyone starts flaunting their fuzzy socks on Instagram, Youtubers start posting their cozy sweater filled hauls, and everything Christmas goes on sale in all the shops (ok so maybe that last one wasn't the best example seeing as some stores put their Christmas stuff out mid October) but anyway you get my point, winter is nearly upon us! It's almost impossible for me to grasp that November is nearly over. 


I am even starting to feel behind due to the fact that I don't have all my Christmas gifts planned out and it's not even December yet! Kind of ridiculous? I think so! Think about it though 33 days until Christmas doesn't sound that bad, but how about less than 5 weeks until Christmas.....wait what?!? See, now you understand my slight panic (or maybe you don't). Christmas/winter is by far my favorite time of the year so I'm hoping to have many blog posts to share my joy with you! I'm thinking hauls, outfit ideas (maybe with myself actually in the pictures OoOoOo), some DIYS, present ideas, and pic of Christmassy wintery things that I see whilst out and about. So let's enjoy these last few days of fall and prepare ourselves to jump into winter with our cute hats and gloves on and our cheeks nice and rosy! Xx

It's only fair that I show you some of my cozy socks, lambs and cupcakes, what's not to love?

Recent Discovery: Miss Jojangles

I believe that in the blogging world, sharing is caring, so if I did not share this blog I discovered, I would be doing a disservice to you lovely readers. The name of the blog is "Miss Jojangles" and it is so cute. It is run a young lady called Jojo and she posts some of the sweetest DIYs I have ever seen! I'll post some pictures of her blog below, so hopefully she won't mind, and hopefully it makes you check her out!

You had me at "Up"
In this DIY she shows how to make the grape soda badge worn by the ever entergetic and chubby Wilderness Explorer Russell. 


Probably one of the most popular trends of the year, the beautiful flower crown. Let me tell you, if you want to buy a nice full crown like this one it can get quite pricey! She shows you how to make one without breaking your budget. 


Cheeky mugs, and I don't mean faces!
This is her most recent post where she shows how to personalize your mugs. I think the idea is quite genius, especially with Christmas coming around, these would make a great gift!
