My inspiration to start up a blog

I'm one of those people that need to feel productive and like they have a purpose, whilst this can be great it can also be a downfall as it results in excessive amounts of pressure being thrown onto my shoulders from you guessed it myself! Even in my younger days I tried to occupy myself with volunteering at the local elderly home, just so I felt like I was doing something more productive with my time than scrolling through Missguided's "New In" pieces. Anyway I thought I'd use today to share with all of the inspiration that encouraged me to create my own blog so here goes nothing:

-The first real Blogger that I knew about was the lovely "Lydia Elise Millen" anyone that knows me will tell you about my obsession with the woman! Her blog is genius and it mixes fitness tips and tricks, with the hottest outfit posts around! I think seeing how happy Blogging made her and the success that she had managed to maintain through the creation of a blog was definetly the kick up the booty that I needed.

-I've always been fashion conscious, although of course I'm thinking back right now and I'm not so sure about the truth of the statement. But let's just say I've always had an interest in clothes, but the closest I came to finding out about current trends was looking around me on my weekly Lakeside visit. (Seriously) Over time I began making more of an effort with my style, however the camera has always hated me so I didn't really have the confidence or the reason to begin documenting my outfits.

-I used to and admittedly still do spend an awful lot of time online, shopping, browsing through blogs etc. So it made sense for me to mix my love of fashion and share it with an audience
For a long time I was in two minds about creating one as initially I had no intention of posting images of myself, until one day I decided why the hell not.

I would say the main thing to keep in mind when thinking about creating any sort of blog, is to remember why you're doing it. My main reason was to share my ideas about fashion, and of course to put on my CV! Because trust me as an established or new blogger, it looks great to employers as it shows that you've taken your own initiative and created something unique.

That's it from me today,

Happy Tuesday All!x

Hola Hola!

 I apologise for my lateness but in between working LFW, retail and now interning full time I've barely had time to eat! Yet I've still found time to shop? Hmmmm.

 Anyway! I have finally secured an internship at a Fashion PR firm which I am ecstatic about, I'm on my second day so I'm still learning and getting used to all these scary industry terms but I can already tell how useful this experience will be. A Normal day for an PR intern consists of completing any returns from companies, as well as preparing send outs, scanning coverage and general admin. I hope that this acting as motivation for any of you struggling to find an internship, so make the most of every opportunity and never be afraid to apply! Rome wasn't built in a day guys(I have to tell myself this on a daily basis!) onto my outfit I wanted the whole smart casual look and I don't know how I feel about wearing trainers yet but on an everyday basis I would have teamed this with some air max. Instead I teamed it with my favourite boots, who would have known that they only made their way into my life last week? I'm not kidding when I say I've worn them every single day, I mean comfort style it's a win win. I adore this sleeveless trench coat from trusty Missguided (I'm trying to reduce the amount of time and money that I spend on their website but as you can see, right now it's a lost cause) It's perfect for now when it's not cold or hot, although as soon as winter presents itself I can't see myself in this. 

Hopefully speak soon,

Happy Wednesday.

Bonjour my lovelies! As fashion week is nearly within my grasp I am feeling especially positive. Maybe it's because I've been shopping like mad, but I'm liking it. So today was the final day of delivering lfw invitations and is it weird that I'm going to miss it? I love the whole proving yourself thing, and it's always nice to have something to get up for in the morning. Anyway onto my new babies from ASOS, I was lost for words when I opened the package and looking down at them now I still am. They're the perfect shoe as they're stylish yet slipper like, the heel is a great little height boost but not so much that you fall over every 5 seconds(which I am known for doing) I'm so happy to have found a shoe that works for me, so expect so see these in probably every blog post to come!  Happy Wednesday.x

Busy week alert! 

As much as I'd love to say that it consists of shopping and lunch dates, my week really is a mixture of interning, working and the beginning of  London Fashion week. So right now I'm on my way to Central London to help out the same company that I was lucky enough to work for previously at LCM, with comfortable shoes and google maps at the ready I'm preparing for a day of delivering invitations around London. By the way Thank you sunshine I really appreciate it! I love comfortable outfits but I hate the feeling that comes with not making a lot of effort, however I'd like to think this is one of my more effortless looks. Except of course it wasn't! I would have taken it in a more formal direction if I was say meeting a friend or having the day out, but as I have been instructed to wear comfortable footwear I though that Air Max would keep me bouncing around comfortably all day. 

Speak soon, Happy Monday.x

Hola! It's official I have ridiculous holiday blues, probably because I've got to go into work today but hey it's the only thing funding my shopping habit! Anyway this look was more laid back excluding the shoes of course, the leather top is an oldy from Missguided and aside from making my body boiling hot all day it's a gem to wear! As the weather can't seem to make it's mind up I decided to throw on my favourite coat from Bank Fashion just Incase a storm presented itself. Luckily enough the weather held up and I remained dry for the day. I can't contain my excitement for Fashion Week and I'm just trying to put together some worthy outfits, were required to wear all black so I'm sure it won't be that hard for me! :) Happy Saturday.z

A day at Bloggers Love Fashion Week

Yes she is alive! After what I can only describe as an eventful week, I'm so happy to confirm that I've got my blogging mojo back. Yesterday was the final day of Bloggers Love Fashion Week, but the first for me as I ended up agreeing to do overtime for the same time as day one. (Grrrrrr) so Incase you don't know Bloggers Love is a company that organise exclusive events for Bloggers. It's free and simple to sign up so I really reccomend doing it, the event was held in the Penthouse in Leciester Square which is probably the biggest club in the area. With 7 floors all overlooking London it's amazing both in the  day and night, and I actually ended up returning later that night for a mid week release! It's free entry before midnight and the drinks are more affordable than I expected. So if you're ever in the area check it out, for a Wednesday night I was really impressed with the turn out! Anyway that's it from me today.                                        Happy Thursday.x
