Busy Busy | iPhone Snaps
Hello lovely reader! It feels so good to finally be writing this, it seems like forever since my last post, oh wait, it has been. I have been so busy it is insane (September was basically no existent, it flew by), just when I think things are going to slow down, something else pops up and the roller coaster continues. It's frustrating because I have so many posts I want to do, and literally no time to execute them. But, being a student comes first right now, so I just have to be patient and not stress out about it. I know you are all lovely people, some students as well, so I'm sure you can understand where I'm coming from. I also want to do some college (or university) student related posts, as that is the majority of my life right now, so stay tuned for those.
Ok, so now that all that's sorted, today's post, some snapshots of what I've been up to!
My go to breakfast, KIND Granola mixed with dried apricots and craisins. I'm currently loving the Maple Quinoa Clusters granola, it tastes like fall. I'm also currently obsessed with KIND and am planning on doing a whole separate post about my favorite products!
Pita, Hummus, and Studying
My one flatmate and I made these adorable mini fruit pizzas, so simple and so good!
Taking in the sunshine. If you are into fashion or purchase clothes (everyone), I highly encourage you to read this book.
Mondays = yawn
Went home for a weekend to find this little guy within the first ten minutes of being there...this is what happens when I leave.
My dad's famous kebabs
My Grandpa's garden in full bloom
Gettin' peachy with Karl
My favorite pajama shorts, London's calling
Taking on the day with my Kate Spade Saturday for New Balance sneakers
What have you been up to? Again, thanks for sticking with me and continuing to follow! More posts to come soon! Much love Xx

Lashes & Lingerie Challenge | Adore Me
Hello lovely reader! As you may know from reading some of my "Fashion Posts" or looking at my OOTD's I am a firm believer that the clothes you choose to wear should make you feel good. Now I mean this both figuratively and literally, they should give you confidence but also be comfortable. I believe that this idea should also be carried through in what you choose to wear under your clothes as well. That's right, you know what I'm talking about. We all have had that day where your bra coordinates with your outfit, and even if your the only one who is aware of it, you can feel like you've got it together. So continuing with this idea, a couple of weeks ago, I found out about a new campaign the lingerie company Adore Me is running, which is putting together a few mood boards and pairing their lingerie with this season's trend of mix-and-match outfits. Naturally, I was thrilled to participate in what they are calling their "Lashes & Lingerie" Challenge. They too believe "that lingerie is the most intimate expression of your personal style and shouldn’t only be reserved for special occasions!" The two mood boards that you can see below, display Adore Me's pieces as well as outfits that can be found on one of my favorite clothing websites asos, under their "Co-ords" section.
This board features the Cindy Push Up by Adore Me. I wanted to play off the floral embroidery details of the bra and the feminine, delicate feel that they portray. I chose three looks from asos that also reflect this vibe. They are feminine yet still powerful.
