<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It's been a whileee</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Well I thought I would share a year round up and my hopes and goals for 2019.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">2018 will go down in my history as the worst year of my life so far, so that's been fun *sarcasm*.</span><br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTtde5MTJzCCF_n-mI-rw2f417DLXTPRm50Kfs9v8fu3VBq8As1AW-7y7SEXHIsMaolaPEkkTTaZI-Mih-UHcQliWZUthixE2EP7M_mBGYna_RZeKBqA232efVulI4-N7IZ3Rmjtu-ihTy/s1600/8cdad031509ffb15a3a591bafc1c596c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="736" data-original-width="736" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTtde5MTJzCCF_n-mI-rw2f417DLXTPRm50Kfs9v8fu3VBq8As1AW-7y7SEXHIsMaolaPEkkTTaZI-Mih-UHcQliWZUthixE2EP7M_mBGYna_RZeKBqA232efVulI4-N7IZ3Rmjtu-ihTy/s320/8cdad031509ffb15a3a591bafc1c596c.jpg" width="320" /></a><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I lost my grandma in January, my social anxiety kicked my butt all year, my boyfriend of nearly 7 years broke up with me and the beautiful cat that spent most of his time at my boyfriends house was knocked down by a car (he was actually his next door neighbours). So yeahh not the best really but, I'm so thankful that I have a roof over my head, food and my family (big shout out to my sister) & my best friend Roisin. There were so many times this year that I wanted to hide under my duvet and never leave again but, hey here I am I survived it all. Surely things can only get better, right?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I've set myself goals for this year instead of resolutions because I think the word goals is a little less intimidating than resolution (I don't know it makes sense to me).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So here are my goals for 2019</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Get stronger</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I've been exercising five days a week (sometimes there is a little bit of slacking) for a couple of months, I'm yet to start enjoying it but, I'm impressed with how I've actually stuck with it for longer than a week. I would like to even possibly (if I'm being very adventurist)join the gym when I have more money, although the thought terrifies me to my very core. Mainly because I don't have an athletic bone in my bone in my body.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Cook and bake more</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I LOVE food so it seems crazy that I actually don't cook or bake very often. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Be kinder to myself and stop being a damn perfectionist.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I am the biggest cheerleader of everyone (strangers included) but, with myself I'm the complete opposite. You name it I'll have put myself down about it, my appearance, my personality, my intelligence and my drawing skills. It can be so tiring/draining and I'm so done with it. Being a perfectionist is so damn frustrating, thinks take at least 10 times longer because I don't think what I've done is perfect.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Make significant progress in therapy</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This one is a biggy and probably the goal that will have the biggest effect on me.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">Say yes to more things/new experiences</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">There's not much to say about this really, sometimes I should yes to trying things instead of thinking of every negative outcome that may come from doing so.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Go outside more</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I'm an actual hermit that spends a good 99.9% of my time inside drawing and hiding from life. I want to take my camera out with me on a nice long walk and get snap happy. </span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I mean it can only be better for my for my health than sitting inside. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Finally sort out my wardrobe</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">At the moment I dislike 90%* of my wardrobe so, I definitely need to sort through everything I have and either sell or give some to charity. I want to have pieces that will go with plenty of other items in my wardrobe. I also no longer see the point in having items that don't make me feel good about myself.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">*I'm clearly really into using percentages in this blog post</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #76a5af; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Read more books</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">In an attempt to improve my memory (keeping everything crossed) and it's nice having something else that chills me out other than drawing and watching Gilmore Girls on Netflix.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Start saving for the future</span><br />
I<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> feel like every person and their dog has now got a house or a flat that's they either rent or own so I'm feeling a little bit behind now. It would help to actually get a job to start the saving process in the first place.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a2c4c9; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Go on holiday</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I haven't been on holiday since 2009 so I'm excited to finally be able to visit a new place. After, this past year I think some time away is just what I need and actually bloody well deserved! I'm not sure where I want to go really, I don't want to go somewhere too hot but, I would like some sunshine a stark contrast to grey Manchester at the moment. There are so many beautiful places that I would love to explore one day, it just takes some £££ that I don't currently have. But, for now scrolling through Pinterest will have to do until hopefully some point this year I can get away.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #76a5af;">Get some bloody sleep but, also get up earlier</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My sleeping habits have been awful for as long as I can remember so it would be nice to finally do something about it. I love sleep so why I don't go to sleep earlier who knows.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #76a5af; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Experiment more with my illustrations & try new crafts</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I'm so excited to work on some new illustrations and ideas that I have for the new year. I will finally take commissions, something I have been putting off because I didn't think I was good enough. Last year I did my first bit of digital drawing which has been interesting and quite tricky really so, I would like to improve my digital drawing skills too this year.</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> I got into embroidery towards the end of 2018 so I'm hoping to carry that on and see where that takes me. I'm also looking forward to trying out punch needling which looks so cool and creates a sort of shaggy rug effect! </span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Will I get a stall at craft fair? Maybe but, no pressure although it would be nice.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">so the past few days I have been loving life (well the weather anyway), it is finally a bit cooler!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I really enjoy just browsing ASOS and whilst I was doing so the other day I found myself unconsciously, saving quite a few Autumn appropriate clothing items on ASOS, yes I'm one of those people who is dreaming of the upcoming season and the simpler times when you could wear jeans without sweating everywhere including your eyelids!</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsAC3Pf4IOsewj1MsYzn8sGU_IXDHoV-wpbc9_gnhsUxWEd-q3U7vmzcglEam8Sh0iSs4-35bZ0Jcc8PjNKIcXsPHyAgvkJVMZfdj7Fwu_vuVRxoXr7HTO4uQpTbA2ovGjvNAjw5kniO45/s1600/autumn+clothes.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="1200" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsAC3Pf4IOsewj1MsYzn8sGU_IXDHoV-wpbc9_gnhsUxWEd-q3U7vmzcglEam8Sh0iSs4-35bZ0Jcc8PjNKIcXsPHyAgvkJVMZfdj7Fwu_vuVRxoXr7HTO4uQpTbA2ovGjvNAjw5kniO45/s640/autumn+clothes.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Dungaree dresses can be worn all year round just switch your short sleeve for long sleeves, I think they make nice casual outfits.Not my usual chosen pattern but, there's something about this checkered skirt. </span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The denim dress would look really nice with a pair of woolly tights and a pair of Chelsea boots! A</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> classic trench coat always makes me think of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's and this is no exception, which can only be a good thing! How cosy does that cable knit jumper look? Imagine being wrapped up in a blanket wearing that and comfy socks, reading the Harry Potter books, drinking a mug of hot chocolate?? YESS. The pink shade of this jumper and the frill details are really cute. It's also a bit different from your standard jumper. </span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I think the midi skirt would work so well with a turtle neck jumper, and a nice pair of boots.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1lj94YZIBS9olv1yHgK1CnI3ZCEMacpDmGvYM8bSPZCP9p73drJ2gKTqfLHXduuCZiB-3Ye4ruYhlPn6syyUdLwcQ7x27ZeZNorNjb-grH7fBBEEy48ZB3q-C5TTWX4VhaKFI1LvuTVHG/s1600/autumn+clothes+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="1200" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1lj94YZIBS9olv1yHgK1CnI3ZCEMacpDmGvYM8bSPZCP9p73drJ2gKTqfLHXduuCZiB-3Ye4ruYhlPn6syyUdLwcQ7x27ZeZNorNjb-grH7fBBEEy48ZB3q-C5TTWX4VhaKFI1LvuTVHG/s640/autumn+clothes+2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I think the denim dress look like it would be very flattering and can be worn now with bare legs or in winter with a pair of tights and of course boots. </span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">They grey jumper looks really come can be easily worn underneath items and tucked into skirts. </span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I love this striped top (you know I love a good stripe) with contrast pops of colour on the sleeve cuffs. </span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The dusky pink crop jacket would be great for the transitional period before we get into the depths of Autumn and Winter. You would never guess that the checkered skirt and blouse is really a dress! It would be ideal for all formal events and what I like the most about it is you don't have the problem of a blouse coming untucked from your skirt. The black and red jumper is a really nice statement knitwear with red glittery lips (yes, I did just say glittery) which is a perfect contrast. </span><span style="font-family: helvetica neue, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">pussy bow. Another piece of knitwear but, probably the most versatile with it's colour and being very slim fit it could be worn tucked into a skirt, jeans or underneath a pinafore. It's of course a winner with a pussy bow and a slight ruffle neck. </span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The lettuce edge trim on the neckline and the sleeves and the</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"> tortoise shell buttons are a lovely addition to the basic style long sleeved top.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm not quite sure the point of this post really, I just saw quite a few pieces of swimwear and wanted to share my favourites with you. Fun fact I've never worn a bikini in my adult life mainly because I haven't been on holiday since 2009. I guess if you're lucky enough to be going on holiday soon you might see some pieces that you might like.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As you might be able to tell from this post I love a good pattern and ruffles when it comes to swimwear.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfc37FpJKMBMTnoeeTaGNlzMjZC_i_dB2XvrOUC_mzfrzAJ13m_MV1Jfp9AwWIy44kAqCivpGrW8dzw4VmVcCxtMJgLLfxF1tPoUTxZKHaYg9jkqx8AQmZY5UFyWOKjQ7Xi3h2aQkuOxrD/s1600/swimsuit.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="1200" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfc37FpJKMBMTnoeeTaGNlzMjZC_i_dB2XvrOUC_mzfrzAJ13m_MV1Jfp9AwWIy44kAqCivpGrW8dzw4VmVcCxtMJgLLfxF1tPoUTxZKHaYg9jkqx8AQmZY5UFyWOKjQ7Xi3h2aQkuOxrD/s640/swimsuit.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm a big fan of all of these swimsuits especially the buttercup yellow square neckline piece from Topshop, the rust colour (I love it so much) ruffled piece from ASOS and the gingham piece with the tie front & cut out detail from Forever 21. But, if I had an endless supply of money I would definitely buy them all! </span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmd8b6YKfI8Z8ts6AQPwwH1OE8PnBOKDy7TDGQqyLMrFGYjvgpoQWt0ko6wOVzrILLJmtaOwXsG7yvw_F3ZOuLl3XAdrCbAFttGQGXM1RsD-xCstVkDKHgh8jcxjEK2N6crgCtq5ZnTdkh/s1600/Bikinis.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="1200" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmd8b6YKfI8Z8ts6AQPwwH1OE8PnBOKDy7TDGQqyLMrFGYjvgpoQWt0ko6wOVzrILLJmtaOwXsG7yvw_F3ZOuLl3XAdrCbAFttGQGXM1RsD-xCstVkDKHgh8jcxjEK2N6crgCtq5ZnTdkh/s640/Bikinis.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Definitely way out of any budget I would have but, there is something about the Topshop Tommy Hilfiger bikini that I like, the triangle/halter neck top is such an interesting style. I also love the ruffles (of course), stripes (of course) and the addition of the red Tommy logo. I really like the red striped SUPER high leg and high waisted bikini bottoms from ASOS and it looks like everyone else is as they are sold out at the moment. The bottoms are definitely eighties/nineties inspired obvious with how high leg and waisted they are! the black and white polka dot bikini with ruffle straps from Forever 21 is another favourite of mine too, I like how it's slightly different with a square neckline!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I thought I would include a few high waisted bikini bottoms aswell because I find that they look very flattering and are perfect for any one who is a bit body conscious like myself.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">it's been three months since I last wrote anything on here (big shock) *disclaimer* the rest of this post is the ramblings from the inside of my head.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I've been really feeling very lost recently and struggling the worst I have in a while with a lack of confidence and feeling anxious about everything.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I feel with social media being so popular these days and everyone posting the highlights of their lives (I'll probably do a whole post on that) I find it difficult not to compare myself to strangers. I get this overwhelming feeling that I'm now 24 years old and should have my sh** together like so many people on my Instagram, people I know from high school either have their own, place, are married and have kids.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Job/Career wise I haven't a clue anymore! At the moment I'm currently looking for any job really just to get some money. The dream would be to buy and sell vintage clothes because I love clothes so much and think I would really enjoy looking for the individual pieces. But, I would also like to carry on with my illustrations and selling them. Hopefully I will figure it all out eventually, sooner rather than later please.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I'm not 100% sure where I'm going this post if I'm being honest so I will just leave it short, I just wanted to get all my thoughts out.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">January generally has a bad name for itself being the month everyone goes back to work and school after the festive period. But, I have a new disliking for it with my grandma passing away only two weeks into the month. I know everyone and their dog has said that it felt like January went on forever but, I'm definitely not exaggerating when I say it really did to me. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I miss my grandma so much, the thing I struggle with the most is not being able to tell her things when I want to. I just felt like my life was starting (if that makes sense) especially, with my Etsy shop I'm just getting it going really. She was a huge part of my life as well as my grandad so I find it so difficult adjusting to life without them. I know with time it will get a little easier and I am so thankful of 23 years that I had with my grandparents. I will never forget memories of spending summer holidays and after school with my grandparents.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have so many fond memories of both of them:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- when me and my Grandma were chased around a lake by ducks when we ran out of bread to feed them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- the time when I was about 7 or 8 and I was a firm believer in fairies so my Grandma wrote these beautiful letters that were supposed to have been from a fairy that would visit my Grandmas house.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- once when we ended up on a dinosaur ride at Blackpool which terrified me and I then spent the entire ride hiding behind my Grandma</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">-just simple day to day things like going to do the Morrison's food shop </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- many holidays to York, a place called Ribby Hall and Northumberland</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- when my Grandad said ' I like you because you act the goat' </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">*if you don't know act the goat means being silly or daft*</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- decorating my grandparents house for Christmas with my sister</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- celebrating birthdays and christmas with both of them was the best & it will never feel the same.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you've read this and you have grandparents please go and visit them or if you can't give them a call! You'd be surprised how much that can make their day!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

I have got combined a few of the questions from a couple of different Gilmore Girls tags.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="backface-visibility: hidden; background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #111111; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; transition: all 0.25s ease-in-out; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div class="separator" style="backface-visibility: hidden; background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #111111; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; transition: all 0.25s ease-in-out; vertical-align: baseline;">

So with me often home alone towards the end of last year I found myself watching hours of it each day. </span></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">What I like about Jess is he was the one who pushed Rory the most to aim high and had the most common interests with. Even years later when they weren't going out he still managed to get Rory thinking about returning to Yale and then in the revival where he planted the writing a book seed in Rory's head. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="backface-visibility: hidden; background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; transition: all 0.25s ease-in-out; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Dean, at the start he was kind and cared about Rory a lot and even Lorelei liked him (not just for water tank changing services). But, he cheated on his wife with Rory.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="backface-visibility: hidden; background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; transition: all 0.25s ease-in-out; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I actually liked Logan but, the way he acted with Jess made me dislike him a bit, thinking he was better than him. Also, I don't feel like Rory was a particularly nice person when she was with him.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Surprisingly I've actually read 8 off her list of 339 book, I'm not much of a reader sadly (hoping to change that) but, I don't think that's too bad for me. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hello lovelies, guess who's back, back again? It's me! What better time to get back into blogging than October, something about this time of year makes me want to blog.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">It's been a while hasn't it? I'm really hoping to make blogging a regular thing from now on.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">So, where have I been well still in my usual spot but, I've been working very had on first proper illustration job! In my 'spare' time I have also been creating new prints to put in my Etsy shop for Autumn and posting off orders from my shop. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br />Blog wise, I am hoping to give my layout/blog header a bit of an update soon because I'm not 100% happy with it at the moment. I want to start trying out some fashion posts and possibly an outfit post or two at some point. I hope to boost my confidence a little by doing them as I'm not a huge fan of having my photo taken. So, I thought maybe the more I have my photo taken the less it will bother me? I don't know it's just a thought.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">Here are a few photographs from the past few months and a little bit about them</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">- the two window photos were from when I went for drive with my sister and mum & the view was pretty decent</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">- I went to Rudy's a little pizza place in Ancoats, Manchester with my lovely boyfriend a few weeks ago. The pizza was so tasty and the interior was Pinterest worthy.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">- I was tagged in this photo one of my very nice customers posted on Instagram, it still feels crazy seeing my work up in someones home.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">- I stayed at my boyfriends house for just over a week, which was really nice and involved a lot of stroking a cat *see photo. The cat isn't actually my boyfriends but, his neighbors cat that loves nothing more than sleeping in the conservatory at his house. I managed to get a lot of my work done whilst I was there in between cat stroking of course. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">- My last few days staying at my boyfriends house involved lots of tissues and a couple disturbed nights sleep thanks to my sister giving me her cold. But, with a lot of help from some Vicks and some Honey & Lemon Menthol Sweets it didn't last too long.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">- I have been making and selling a few badges which I really enjoy making. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">- I've done a few personal drawings over the past months including this Haim drawing (this is a work in progress) photo. I will be doing a post soon on my recent illustrations.</span><br />

I say to browse because since to discovering the shop that sells endless pieces that fall in love with I haven't actually had much money to spend on new clothes. I'm not sure if all these pieces are still in their New-In section as I started this post well over a week ago.</span><br />

Also, them being high waisted means they are extra flattering.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">2.</span> This boxy style blue shirt looks so cute with the addition of a ruffle on the hem and sleeves.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">3. </span>Ruffles, ruffles everywhere!</span> You could maybe wear this top with some patterned trousers or if your feeling jazzy a pair of flared pants with heeled boots. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">4.</span><span style="color: #f6b26b;"> </span>Yes, this is another piece with ruffle on it. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I love the colour red, so it's no surprise that this dress ended up in my favourites.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This would be perfect for last few weeks we left of summer worn with with converses or tights & ankle boots with a leather jacket in the colder months to come.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">5.</span> okay so I think I may have a ruffle problem but, this time they are small ruffles on the straps of the gingham crop top.</span><br />

<span style="color: #f9cb9c; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> 6.</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I love this dress! It would be perfect with my converses or doc martens. I think you could also wear in the autumn worn over a turtle neck long sleeved top.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">7. </span>The two bows on the back of this dress adds a really nice element to the dress. I also think the dress looks quite vintage because of the shade of orange used on the fabric (I hope that makes some sense).</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">8.</span> I really like this sheer polka dot top which would be worn with a cute bralet. I would also probably wear this with a black denim midi skirt and some heeled boots. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">9.</span> another sheer shirt red ruffled sleeves (again with the ruffles Katie)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">10.</span> These patterned trousers would be so easy to wear with anything, with a bold slogan t-shirt or a blouse! I'm not sure but I think it is leopard print (my eyesight is terrible sorry).</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">11.</span> If your like me your love wearing an oversized checkered shirt then this is the dress for you! It looks so comfy which is always a bonus! checkered shirt with tie front</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">12.</span> I just thought there was something sweet about this pink button up crop top, I think it's the style of it with it's slightly flared sleeves and how it just skims your waist which I think would make a flattering top to wear.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">13.</span> I love ditsy print and style of midi skirt with the two slits up the front. You could easily wear this outfit either casually or formally with different footwear. Some heals or heeled boots during the evening and maybe a pair of trainers for the day time.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">15.</span> This ginham A-line dress looks very 90's style to me and very flattering with it's high waistline, it's a really nice could be smart and casual dress.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">16.</span> How is cute this floral patterned turtle neck top? I might have to get this, I think it would be ideal for this time of you as we approach Autumn.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">17.</span> I really like this tie top although I'm not sure if I have the confidence to wear a top that shoes off that much tummy.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">18.</span> star patterned sheer top which once again could be worn with a black bralet or if you don't have the confidence how about cami vest top (one with lace detail would look so nice). Another way you could wear the sheer top would be by tucking it into a pair of high waisted black wash jeans and some heels.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">19.</span> gingham skirt you could either wear it with the matching gingham crop top as a co-ord or maybe tuck a t-shirt in with it for a more casual outfit.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">20.</span> blouse crop top either worn with your favourite pair of jeans or maybe a midi length denim skirt.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f9cb9c;">21.</span> I really like the way wrap tops and dresses look really nice. I think that the pattern is the same as the turtle neck top that I mentioned before (no.16).</span><br />

I thought I would share with you my recent illustrations that I have been working on over the past few months. So, what can I say about recent work? I have drawn quite a few of my favourite sixties icons and I also started doing more fashion themed illustrations. I'm really enjoying adding bits of colour to my pencil drawings using Photoshop. I hope to do more fashion illustrations in the future because I love drawing clothes. </span><br />

I'm not sure if people are interested in seeing my favourites but, I thought it might be helpful for anybody wanting new clothing for their wardrobe that has a similar style as me. I'm thinking of making this like a series of posts, of course with different shops.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I found quite a few gems when browsing New Look the other night so here are my favourites</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeIYf5hD8HPyWceHexqGWMC0QZmEld7ypuqt_61e0msgFjqZBw-LFRhmMqHvgcIIHv9NJ_CzzFikvuDJEYjwsXejQOhJFcEvdeAMnCa7GfqXUKwpkF8mmEymzYNpb5rkF0OT0xwM4XOu87/s1600/newlook1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="1200" height="425" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeIYf5hD8HPyWceHexqGWMC0QZmEld7ypuqt_61e0msgFjqZBw-LFRhmMqHvgcIIHv9NJ_CzzFikvuDJEYjwsXejQOhJFcEvdeAMnCa7GfqXUKwpkF8mmEymzYNpb5rkF0OT0xwM4XOu87/s640/newlook1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I am slightly in love with this embroidered skirt that reminds me of a William Morris pattern.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The ruffle neck is a really nice detail on this pin stripe shirt. You could style it casually with a pair of jeans and converses or maybe wear it more smart with a pinafore over top.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Slogan t-shirts are still very popular at the moment this t-shirt with New York on the chest is an easy and subtle way of wearing the trend. I think that the little New York slogan is cute with an apple logo as the O in York. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">How amazing are the boots? *insert love heart eyes emoji*Now, I would be lying if I said I am pinks number one fan but, I really like dusky pink and very pale pink at the moment. There is just something about these velvet look boots that I love.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The white lace and mesh top looks lovely and delicate. As the top is sheer your could wear a nice bralet maybe nude or white OR you could maybe go for a pastel coloured one underneath the top. However, if you're not comfortable wearing a just a bralet underneath a vest top would be a good alternative, if you're lucky you might be able to find a lace trimmed vest. </span></div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This bright red dress is the perfect summer dress, with it being 100% cotton and it having a casual fit. The material of the top section of the dress being shirred (gathered) it adds a nice little element to the piece. I think it would look nice either with converses or with espadrille sandals. </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I like the contrast of the white floral embroidery on the black bralet. </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Well it's seems I was loving New York slogan tees when I was browsing New Look. The design looks slightly retro which is always a plus for me!</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The yellow bardot style top looks very flattering with it being off the shoulder and it having a high peplum hem. Yet again I like shirring of the top half and the ruffle of the neck. It's also an easy way of wearing the bell sleeve trend.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">embroidered mesh scalloped sleeves</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> I love the intricate floral embroidery that frames the sheer panel of the smock top. The key hole fastening at the back of the top and the scalloped edge sleeves are really nice details of the top.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_QtNBV7NnUYOs16nJ3aY28j41LGbDrWpP8iXb2LmEQXVIW-Kqe22LQlLvyjUHshchLf8zV0wKBhCoQERSlRhTMhIwauh-qzGNDGlRBrDIkywSyAbEmywQ2IGiGYLbXgV4Sm0AXZWRK_al/s1600/newlook3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="753" data-original-width="1200" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_QtNBV7NnUYOs16nJ3aY28j41LGbDrWpP8iXb2LmEQXVIW-Kqe22LQlLvyjUHshchLf8zV0wKBhCoQERSlRhTMhIwauh-qzGNDGlRBrDIkywSyAbEmywQ2IGiGYLbXgV4Sm0AXZWRK_al/s640/newlook3.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I love how delicate the lace of the midi skirt looks, I feel like some lace can look tacky or cheap but, the lace of this New Look skirt look like it could be expensive. It would look nice with a pair of heeled boots or dressed down with trainers for casual occasion. My favourite thing about it is the actual colour of the piece.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As I said in the past I'm a big fan of gingham so it's no surprise to see this dress make its way to my favourites. I really like the sweet heart neck line and the tie front detail. I just think it would be the perfect summer dress worn with some white espadrilles. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Again I really like the peplum style ruffle bottom to the yellow top. The embroidery on this top is really lovely and a bit different to a lot of embroidered pieces in the shops at the moment. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I think this dress gives a nice, casual bohemian look and I really like the slightly flared sleeves. I would wear this dress with my converses and my leather jacket.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I've been looking for a-line midi denim skirt just like this for a while. I think they would go perfectly with a band t-shirt or slogan t-shirt which ever you fancy tucked in and worn with a pair of converses.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRTaLepL2sKR0koeRl9b3tsJQ1zcS_gq6t5MIgd3s-sCLK-4unpWKt0CoevAXWlMmHXjIUL3YOj2XFmDLFs6UYs3qxukTbQAIXLP8BlfzQfI7XDfCUy4HYXDvxclHzqZtpVVHhItOxEwtw/s1600/newlook4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="628" data-original-width="1200" height="334" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRTaLepL2sKR0koeRl9b3tsJQ1zcS_gq6t5MIgd3s-sCLK-4unpWKt0CoevAXWlMmHXjIUL3YOj2XFmDLFs6UYs3qxukTbQAIXLP8BlfzQfI7XDfCUy4HYXDvxclHzqZtpVVHhItOxEwtw/s640/newlook4.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I am a huge fan of this dress it's a combination of it being a Bardot style dress, frill trim to the neck line and it has pockets! POCKETS!! A dress with pockets is a rarity. Imagine the dress worn with some bright red lipstick? The dress also looks </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The Ditsy print of this playsuit is really cute.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This off the shoulder tops looks super comfy and I love the wine colour of it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> Gingham has been a very popular fashion trend since Spring, so this post is a little be late to the party. Here's a little bit of history on Gingham, the term was originally used to describe </span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">medium-weight balanced plain-woven fabric made from dyed cotton or cotton-blend yarn and was also striped. But, these days the word is uesd when talking about a </span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">lightweight plain-woven cotton cloth, typically checked in white and a bold colour. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> I love the look of Gingham especially the traditional (Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz) blue & white, I think it looks really sweet. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have three pieces of gingham clothing (soon to be four) a top from Next, a skirt and trousers both from Topshop, I'm just a little bit of a fan it.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> You'll be hard not to find a single gingham piece on your favourite high street shops but, these are just a few of my favourite finds:</span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOOPgIY7stINcOfaXfg-d53iZrBwkx_qgLRKVViwcQJ7jqD5JLtVmgSxinl6eefHIi37pNG2jEFBejNjr-CuzQQUa63eojQhshooV3Biz5G6_Pig_SizbvgE73FTBJTztLd0mIU38CEald/s1600/gingham.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="1300" height="392" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOOPgIY7stINcOfaXfg-d53iZrBwkx_qgLRKVViwcQJ7jqD5JLtVmgSxinl6eefHIi37pNG2jEFBejNjr-CuzQQUa63eojQhshooV3Biz5G6_Pig_SizbvgE73FTBJTztLd0mIU38CEald/s640/gingham.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">1. Kimchi Blue Gingham Picnic Gingham Midi Dress - Urban Outfitters - £52 <b>//</b> 2.

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">1. This is such a nice dress, the ruched bodice and the ruffle neckline and sleeves look very flattering. I think it would look lovely with either worn with black converses or some espadrilles.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">2. The flared sleeves on this top are really cute especially with the tiny little ruffles towards the top.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">3. I like how this top is a really casual pullover/shirt, that you could easily just throw on in the morning and go (with shoes of course). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">4. This is a lovely simple summer top with a twisted knot detail.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">5. I love the intricate embroidery detailing and the cute little tassels attached to the hem. This top would be perfect for your holidays because it looks quite flowy! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">6. This dress looks super flattering especially with the square, frilly neckline, midi length and high waistband.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">7. The ruffle hem is such a nice addition to this blouse and I like that it also has a high neck. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">8. This playsuit had to make the cut with it being red (my favourite colour) and off the shoulder style.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">9. The colour of this midi skirt is so nice, the yellowy mustard makes a nice change from blue and white gingham.This would make a perfect Summer outfit worn with some espadrilles and straw basket.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">10. I love this little playsuit that much my very very lovely boyfriend ever so kindly ordered it for me. It looks like it is made out of light weight material which is perfect for this time of year! My favourite parts of the playsuit are the tiny scalloped edging to the shorts and the tie wrap on the top. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">11. I really like the contrast of the large gingham pattern and the small gingham pattern. Also, the high waistband will help elongate your legs if that's something you wanted.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">Are you a fan of Gingham?</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I think I'm going to do a blog challenge to ease me back into writing again, I haven't chosen a certain one to take part in yet but, I hope it will be enjoyable for others to read. I also have some ideas for more blog posts maybe </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- my summer fashion essentials</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- bedroom tour</span><br />

I found so many amazing pieces which isn't good when you haven't the money to spend but, I thought I'd show the pieces I loved anyway.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here are my favourite finds online:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">((Warning: Heavily features denim of all washes))</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> 1. This t-shirt is perfect for me as I used to say to my friends 'You Go Girl' whenever they were successful at something and I also really like the 70's style to the top.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">2. I'm in need for a plain A-line skirt and this is the perfect berry colour. It could be worn with blouses or for a more laid back look with a t-shirt tucked in.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">3. These sunglasses remind me of Ray Bans</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">4. I think this baby pink frilly t-shirt would look so cute worn with some Mom jeans and Superga trainers or maybe some Vans.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">5. When I have a bit more money I really need to invest in a denim skirt like this, it's such a a flattering style and length. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">6. This jumper looks so comfy and soft & I love the red edge to the sleeves. You could wear it over a little tea dress and converses when it gets cooler during the evening on Summer days. In the colder months it would look nice tucked into some black high waisted jeans and some boots.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">8. I really like the contrast of the two denim panels I think it makes it look a bit more interesting than your usual denim skirt.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">9. I love these rainbow socks!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">10. I'm obsessed with cats these days and waiting for the day I can have my own so, this t-shirt is very appropriate.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">11. I am a big fan of the colour of this t-shirt, as girl who where's a hella lot of black it's not often that I pick out a colourful t-shirt as a favourite. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">12. Ahh how cute are these jeans with cat faces on the knees??</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">13. I really like this oversized denim jacket, I think it would go with everything in my wardrobe.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">14. I have some gingham trousers with a larger pattern and baggier in style but, I love the slim fit of these and I think they would look perfect with some healed boots, a blouse and a leather jacket.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">15. I think this white tie strap top is cute and would be perfect for summer worn with short & espadrilles.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">16. The only item of make up I put on my wishlist/favourites as I'm definitely more of a fashion lover than beauty. But, I love the shimmer of this creme highlight!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">17. I thought these sparkly pink opaque socks would look nice worn with some platform (not that I ever wear them but, if I did I'd definitely wear that combo)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">18. There's bloody pineapples on a pair of socks for goodness sake!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">19. I'm a sucker for a good striped top and the use of colours would nicely brighten up an outfit.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">20. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This dungaree dress would look so nice with a band t-shirt and converses or a blouse and some flats. I really like the skater skirt style and I think it would be super flattering.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">21</span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">. What I like about this dress is that it could easily be worn casually during the day or with some heeled boots for the evening.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">22. I thought this jacket was a lovely, it's so different with the botanical floral print.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">23. At the moment I am on the search for some black see-through socks that can be worn with the new shoes I have. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">24.</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> This dress reminds me a bit of Fred Perry dresses with the striped collar and sleeves.</span><br />

</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">27. This denim would be great with a top layered underneath</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">28. What can I say it's a bloody rose gold bag?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">29. The ruffles down the front of this play suit is such a lovely detail </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">30. I love these Daisy socks!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">31. Not my usual go to style of top but there something nice about the </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">32. This t-shirt is so cute with the tiny love hearts on the chest!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I thought I would do a separate section for swimwear as I got a bit carried away</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">1. &2. how cut are the little ruffles on each shoulder of both the bikini top and swimming costume.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">3. I really like the triangle shape to the bikini top.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">4. Gingham is such a popular pattern/trend right now and I have quite a bit of love for the ol' gingham, it being read is also in it's favour!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">5. The style of this swimming costume/swimsuit looks super flattering with the cut out section and the way it is cut above your belly button if like me you aren't too fond of your belly.</span><br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">6. This bikini seems like it would be very flattering with the high waisted bottoms and the balcony style bikini top.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">7. Oh gingham again! I really like the contrast of the blue gingham pattern and the white bottom half.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">8. I think this off the shoulder style of swimming costume is really nice and unique. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">9. I put the pink version of the off the shoulder swimming costume on here to because I like the colour.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">10.</span> <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I love the halter neck style of this swimming costume, something a little different to your usual styles.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Oh yeah I love socks, I have far too many for it considered a healthy amount of socks to own</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">What I learnt from this wishlist and exploring Monki online is that:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- I love denim</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- I like some colour, not much but, some</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- Monki do amazing swimwear </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- I need to go on holiday to wear said swimwear</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- I need money for said holiday</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello lovelies, so I thought I would have a little bit of a waffle (not the kind you eat basically me typing a lot) about why I blog and the future of my blog.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> Let's start from the beginning I started blogging back in 2012 so I could have my own little space where I could talk about anything and everything that I wanted to whenever I felt like it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> So for a year now I've been overthinking and comparing myself to other bloggers which put me off blogging because I never thought my blog was good enough so I've posted less and less. Recently, I've come to realize that</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> how many followers and likes isn't everything. Yes, if you want to earn a living from blogging then yes that is a very important factor but, my blog is purely to chat on about things I'm interested or about my life.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I've been thinking recently when I'm old and looking back on my life will I really think</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- I wish I'd had more followers on Social Media</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- I wish I had took more flat lays</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- I wish I had took more photos of my food</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">And at the end of the day I highly doubt I will</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> In the future I want to think less and continue to type what comes to mind because at the end of the day I'm no writer, as you can probably tell from my posts so far.</span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"> I hope to finally pluck up the courage to start posting outfit posts again on my blog (I know I mention this every time I talk about my blog). I also hope to do some beauty posts (not that know anything about beauty at all), share my illustrations with you, of course more wishlists and just discuss any topic I fancy covering.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I'm not really sure where I'm going with this post anymore so, I shall leave it at that. If you have read all of this post thank you for putting up with my rambling!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">What I like about all the pieces I selected for my wishlist is the fact they could easily be worn all year round with a few changes in styling. Like every wishlist blog post I do this is not sponsored or anything like that, it's just a post I felt like sharing. I'm not exaggerating I could have put every piece they sell on my wishlist but I thought I better keep it short for post, so here are a few I loved the look of.</span><br />

Of course, I thought I must share it with everyone! Please don't expect a blog post using proper fashion lingo just me gushing about my love of a fashion collection. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I think the pieces from the collection really show that fashion and clothing can be just as beautiful and artistic as an oil painting from the 17th Century. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The whole collection appeals to me due to its blue palette and use of black accessories as most of my wardrobe is filled with clothes of those colours. There is a definite nod to the Seventies through out especially with the flowing fabric and the styling of the models hair in soft waves. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The beret trend seems to be making it's way through to this years Autumn and Winter, which I'm not complaining about at all (not that I could pull it off) but, everybody I've seen wear them so far look so cool in them. In this case it no exception, the leather beret worn by all the models pulls the whole outfits and even the collection together. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The lace sleeves/cape of this first dress are so beautiful. ahh it literally looks like water (probably makes no sense what so ever)</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ahh this dress, the embroidery on it looks so delicate<br />I'm not sure but, it looks like the embroidery could be moons? How does the second one some how look like it's made up of flower petals? I really like the square neck line of the dress too</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The gold detail looks like it was hand painted on to the dress it looks magical maybe even worn to a ball in Hogwarts.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-jXYMl4JDoT9kxBdu3mPDvSDaWC-H9-CkPxyYbytN1VfP90R726DpiOmsM6XhrX4O8J0VH5zE_qlP8Ld_hdHX53HfsjchOlbIN2fR6LE9aqPR2etYzJb5RA277nFDq-HfMDkGrESlH2Jf/s400/6.JPG" width="266" /><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4vHubr_TCazgK9c6hiD8i8Ei5UU5eHm1Zc1Hr5DPIvSxTcmezLSfgjzT6mzFeirqbDQtnzvtsCw-kZWKlwzikKdb3GF10WJwz0iGOKS3plsiNnIA0LoyGKJqYp9i20BtGAhDTnZToZqQb/s400/7.JPG" width="266" /></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The top half of the dress is sweet with the delicate ruffles on both the sleeves and around the neck with little pin tucks on the chest.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8nbjXfGQEvpJzjpCRMk3D-K8JVngUWnoeBSd3lA7L2TOMEKDDl_7v9dXkOZNoKIxgc6gXBv-bCvcqsIqilaz_LL6UzwQsGlbQZLB3uB_dG2OfGTKMibKvSy_DfOvY_XWiJgCPk2VQbENF/s400/9.JPG" width="266" /><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIcIAP5fwAqyem0IfmDtEbYajDRvE44FlXkopuE3buhaahv6fOSmXF1IWSklv3skwwqPTc9_JORdRiw_4F69QmuwjTP0effjVvhugfJG1Ex6EYAI-DmfZgkM_ecEFozx5b4MCF4E3wGQi6/s400/8.JPG" width="266" /></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The ruffles on the neckline of this dress is pretty. I love the layers of the cape on the dress to the right.</span><br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The sleeves of the first dress *insert heart eye emoji*, I really like the effect of the dark velvet material in contrast with the sheer material of the sleeves. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The photographs used in this blog post were taken by Lillie Eiger back stage at the fashion show. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For the full article about the Dior AW17 written by Vanessa Hseih for Dazed and Confused you can <a href="http://www.dazeddigital.com/fashion/article/35003/1/blue-is-the-new-black-at-mgcs-second-dior-show" target="_blank">read it here</a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I would love to do some illustrations of some of my favourite pieces from the collection.</span><br />

It will probably end up being a combination of photos of iconic people that I like and illustration prints.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Hello lovelies, today's blog post is a bit of a brief one nothing too long winded.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Katherine who blogs over on <a href="http://www.millennialrants.co.uk/" target="_blank">Millennial Rants</a> ever so nicely tagged me to answer the questions from the Blog Recognition Award the other day, so of course I shall be answering the questions in this post.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Before, I answer them these are the rules</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #134f5c; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>- Thank the blogger who nominated you and link to their blog</i></span><br />
<span style="color: #134f5c; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>- Briefly explain how how your blog started</i></span><br />
<span style="color: #134f5c; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>- Give two pieces of advice to bloggers just starting out </i></span><br />
<span style="color: #134f5c; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>- Select 15 bloggers you want to tag and give the award to - and then let them know</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="color: #134f5c; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>How my blog started </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I actually started it years ago back in 2012 but, I never used it regularly. I decided to start up my blog so I had some where to talk about anything I wanted to.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #134f5c; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>Two pieces advice for new bloggers</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hmm I'm no expert when it comes to blogging and I still have so much to learn</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">what I would say though is</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">1. Be yourself and write about what you're passionate about as it reflects so much in your writing.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">2. Don't be afraid to interact with other bloggers because you never know you might find some good friends through doing so. Taking part in Twitter blogger chats definitely helps ease you into talking to new people if you struggle with things like that like I do.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I'm not sure who else to tag, as I think pretty much all of my favourite bloggers have been tagged already although, I don't think the lovely </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Tanya of </span><a href="http://scribledreams.com/" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" target="_blank">Scribbled Dreams</a> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">has been so I would like to nominate her!</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Thank you for reading!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Once upon a time Next used to be a clothes shop that I saw as a somewhere my mum and other 35+ years shopped at but, the past few years I have been wanting more and more pieces by them!

<br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #45818e;">1.</span><span style="color: #134f5c;"> </span>The dark wash of the denim is really nice. I think it would look lovely with a shirt underneath, a pussy bow blouse or even your favourite band t-shirt and some metallic ankle boots or for a more casual look some trusty converses.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #45818e;">2.</span> This navy broderie ruffle dress would be perfect to transition from Early Spring too Summer! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #45818e;">3.</span> I really like the 'Au Revoir' embroidery on the back of the blouse, the white piping around the edges and the Peter Pan collar. I think this blouse would look cute tucked into maybe a nice midi skirt.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #45818e;">4.</span> This nude/blush lace blouse would go well with most bottoms, you could wear with an A-line mini skirt or tucked in to black skinny jeans with a pair of ankle boots. I think it's such a pretty colour!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #45818e;">5.</span> I think this such a cute dress that could be worn during winter with tights or without during the summer!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #45818e;">6.</span> I love how it's styled in the photograph with the navy midi skirt there's something very Audrey Hepburn-esque to it and the style of the top is super elegant looking. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #45818e;">7.</span> Another striped top? Erm of course! But, this has a RUFFLE!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #45818e;">8.</span> The ruffle on this shirt is such a nice detail a bit like a cape (maybe it's just me).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #45818e;">9.</span> ohh my goodness how cute is this top?? I'm actually so tempted to buy this top! I would live in this in Summer time especially. I love the gingham pattern, the frill and the cute tie arm straps.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #45818e;">10.</span> This is the shirt version of the no.2 broderie dress I would probably style this with a pair of skinny jeans or dungarees and converses. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #45818e;">11.</span> I really like this gingham trench coat I think it's a lovely, unique take on the classic camel trench. I have seen it in store and it seem </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-size: 15px;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello lovely, it's been a while since I last posted as I've been concentrating on my illustration work which I hope to do a post on soon just share with you my more recent pieces. But, I'm currently have technology problems so it might be a while till I can't get them up. </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 15px;">ahh I can't decide! So here are some of my top memories<br />meeting my boyfriend, going to Leeds festival, seeing Arctic Monkeys live, getting a hug off Johnny Marr, graduating university, getting some of my work in the Secret 7 exhibition, watching Mr Bean with my grandad on NYE one year, family holidays when I was younger, I could go on</span></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 14px;">

<div style="font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 15px;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ohh this was a while a go now but, I think Olivia from <a href="http://www.whatoliviadid.com/" target="_blank">What Olivia Did</a> was the first blog I properly read and to this day is still a firm favourite of mine! </span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">My favourite social media site is Instagram, I also love Pinterest but, I'm not sure that's considered a social media site. I enjoy using both of them because I'm a very visual/creative person. My least favourite social media site is probably Facebook.</span></span></div>

On Friday I finally plucked up the courage to do something that scared me because life is too short to stay in your comfort zone forever. I only went and opened my Etsy shop back up selling A5 prints of my illustrations.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It's something I've thought about doing for some time but, the constant self doubt I have with anything I do put me off. Recently, I've been thinking well you won't know if things will fail or work out until you actually try first. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I created all the illustrations by first off drawing them with of course a pencil, then I scan them into the computer and fine tune & clean bits of my drawing. For the Frida Kahlo illustration the colour was added using the magic of Photoshop. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My first print is of Audrey Hepburn, I decided to draw her as she's one of my favourite actresses and she's such an iconic actress</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The next print I have in my shop is Twiggy because she is one of my favourite Sixties icons.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Last but, not least is Frida Kahlo because she was damn good artistand she was so fun to draw!</span></div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgg18eYdTr2ElyZbJvQbjXqBfqz9GsaTM_exBRNuuj9a3IHLegFwLfCISP5sObCPBmbMKKXLhXL-r4lydxJQFsg6yjNucsBDNOe-xz22JuG9UQNzPKpCsVMLlzy0ulgKjviuBiCT138NziY/s1600/etsyshopcollage.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgg18eYdTr2ElyZbJvQbjXqBfqz9GsaTM_exBRNuuj9a3IHLegFwLfCISP5sObCPBmbMKKXLhXL-r4lydxJQFsg6yjNucsBDNOe-xz22JuG9UQNzPKpCsVMLlzy0ulgKjviuBiCT138NziY/s640/etsyshopcollage.jpg" width="640" /></a></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">After, getting my illustrations printed professionally by <a href="http://www.awesomemerchandise.com/A5-Heavyweight-Art-Prints" target="_blank">Awesome Merch</a>, I then got onto the exciting part of picking out packaging and deciding just how I wanted my packaging to look. Of course I browsed for ages on Etsy looking at lots of pretty washi tape and stickers. I bought some brown brown paper bags and added why spots to them using the end of a brush and white paint. I love the way the copper tape looked on the brown paper bags when I package everything up!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello lovelies, it's that time of year again where I and many others set themselves New Year Resolutions in hope that they can stick to at least one by the end of February.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Before I tell you all about my New Years Resolutions for 2017 let's look back a year to the ones I made for 2016 which you can check out here </span><a href="http://katiemarielennon.blogspot.co.uk/2016/01/2016-new-years-resolutions.html" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" target="_blank">2016 New Year Resolutions</a><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> . If I'm being honest I really didn't achieve any of my goals, although I did graduate/survive University which I'm still surprised by. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">But, hey 2017 is a new year and I'm more determined than ever to get things done and stop putting things off!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #134f5c; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><u>Personal Goals</u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <i><span style="color: #45818e;">Believe in myself</span></i> (even if it's just a little).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">this is a biggy and one that I've been struggling with for many years. It would nice to make steps towards less self doubt even if they are just baby steps.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <span style="color: #45818e;"><i>Drink more water</i></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <i><span style="color: #45818e;">Exercise at least three times a week</span> </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Not to lose wait really, just to tone up and so I actually might have more strength than a new born baby.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <span style="color: #45818e;"><i>Read more books</i></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I would love to read more books this year (four or five) especially some classics. You're probably thinking four or five??? that's nothing! But, I'm such a slow reader probably the slowest. I'm hoping the more I do it the quicker I get, hopefully!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <span style="color: #45818e;"><i>Keep up with a daily beauty routine</i> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">especially one that will help reduce my large pores. WARNING: Beauty Gurus do not read on... My routine used to just consist of taking make up off with Micellar Water and that was that and maybe a bit of moisturizer if I was really pushing the boat out! But, now I'm a new woman after my mum so kindly bought me three Clarins products for Christmas. I can't wait to see if they make any changes to my skin, I might do a blog post about them and their effects on my skin (especially my T-zone).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <span style="color: #45818e;"><i>Take more photographs</i> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">because it's always nice to be able to look back on moments & I really didn't take many photos in 2016.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <i style="color: #45818e;">Buy prints for my room </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I had my bedroom decorated back in early 2015 and I still haven't got my 'gallery' wall up, just my lonely Audrey Hepburn print. I would love to purchase some artist prints (supporting small businesses) and a few of the lovely Vogue prints my boyfriend bought me from Manchester Art Gallery.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <i style="color: #45818e;">Start to learn my ukulele </i></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">(finally) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">and be able to play at least one of the songs my list of ones I want to learn.</span><i style="color: #45818e; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </i><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #134f5c; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><u>Illustration/Online shop Goals</u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <i style="color: #45818e;">Open my little online shop </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">selling prints of my illustrations, so far I will be selling Twiggy, Audrey Hepburn and Frida Kahlo prints but, I plan to create more illustrations and get them printed for sale too.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <i style="color: #45818e;">Start taking portrait commissions </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I did a couple at Christmas time and my customers loved them which made me so happy.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <span style="color: #45818e;"><i>Make plans for my zines/mini magazines</i> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I hope to make a zine in the future called the A-Z of the Sixties which would be such a fun personal project for me as I love the Sixties for all things music, fashion and interior design.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <span style="color: #45818e;"><i>Reach 300 followers on my illustration Instagram page</i></span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">this isn't a goal more of something that would be nice if it happened.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #134f5c; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><u>Blogging Goals</u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <span style="color: #45818e;"><i>Post regularly</i></span> (at least three times a week).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <span style="color: #45818e;"><i>Continue talking to lovely bloggers</i></span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">because they're are lots of really nice people part of the blogging community. Some of who have been super supportive towards me, my blog and my soon to be open online shop.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <span style="color: #45818e;"><i>Post my first Beauty post</i></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #45818e;">not that I know much at all (if anything) about beauty but, it's something I'm interested in.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <span style="color: #45818e;"><i>Host a blogger chat</i></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #45818e;">I think it would be fun and it would be nice to speak to more fellow bloggers.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <span style="color: #45818e;"><i>Pluck up the courage to post another Outfit post</i></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #45818e;">Sometimes you just need to do something that scares you slightly.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <span style="color: #45818e;"><i>Maybe change up my blog design </i></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If I'm feeling super daring maybe even design it myself.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- <i><span style="color: #45818e;">Reach 1000 follower on Bloglovin</span></i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">again it isn't a goal more something I hope happens (if that makes any sense).</span><br />

I hope you all had an amazing Christmas and enjoy your New Year! After, eating nearly my whole body weight in chocolate and playing many games of Jenga (yes my family play Jenga at Christmas) I'm back and I thought I would do a round up of my year as I'm sure quite a few bloggers are doing. I'm also going to do a look back at the New Years Resolutions that I made and how well I did with them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Can we just take a moment to appreciate how quick this year has gone?I swear when I was younger time didn't fly by as much as it does now.</span><br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkRNqjz1mhtEzbmwnKqUH5IcxoVWxv9GEK1Bs33-WDXQtnZt_gxcdP4Nkyf234Uy9X9WYB655NHs0natDlmB6tPfM68vPdr3AHOFP8dZp-6uPhhrxeedxEdii39ccohkXeUi1kXg7x6NDb/s1600/2016image.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkRNqjz1mhtEzbmwnKqUH5IcxoVWxv9GEK1Bs33-WDXQtnZt_gxcdP4Nkyf234Uy9X9WYB655NHs0natDlmB6tPfM68vPdr3AHOFP8dZp-6uPhhrxeedxEdii39ccohkXeUi1kXg7x6NDb/s640/2016image.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />

Sorry for not posting very often at the moment I'm still very busy working on commissioned Christmas portraits, designing a CD cover and setting up my online shop. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Since I last posted on here, I have been to the Christmas markets in Manchester which put me in a festive mood after seeing all the pretty lights </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have been tagged by the lovely <a href="http://webloglifeprobs.blogspot.co.uk/">Vanessa</a> to complete the Christmas Tag, so here we go!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">1. Whats you favourite Christmas movie?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ahh this sounds terrible but, I love lots of them and don't actually have a favourite.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">2. What are your favourite Christmas colours?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My answer has to be the same as Vanessa's, it's all about the gold and red for me!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">3. So you stay in your PJ's or dress up for Christmas?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I stay in my pyjamas til the latest 12 in the afternoon because I often get new clothes at Christmas so I can't wait to try them on. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">4. If you could buy one person a Christmas present, who would it be?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">ohh I can't choose that!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">5. Do you open your presents Christmas eve or Christmas morning?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Me and my sister open one present at midnight on Christmas eve and then the rest on Christmas day. We haven't always done that, it's something we've been doing for the past 3 years or so.<br /><br />6. Have you ever built a ginger bread house?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I did build one once, quite a few years ago now but, it was definitely interesting.<br /><br />7. What do you like to do on your Christmas break?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I like to go the Christmas markets, watch lots of Christmas films and read Harry Potter. Reading Harry Potter makes me feel super cosy at this time of year (this may sound strange). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">8. Any Christmas wishes?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">That my parents stay awake longer than 5 minutes after eating our christmas roast.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">9. Favourite Christmas smells?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It has to be that festive spice smell.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Every year my mum buys pot pourri that she puts out on the dining table which is full of dried orange slices, sticks of cinnamon, pine cones and berries which smells of festive spices. This year my mum got a diffuser with the same smell. Oh I also love the smell of hot chocolate too!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">10. Favourite Christmas meal or treat?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Oh gosh I loveeee the roast potatoes my Dad makes, those covered in gravy are the dream. Anything chocolatey is a must at this time of year! </span><br />

I haven't posted in a week mainly because I'm in the process of setting up my own online shop to sell prints of my drawings which takes up quite a bit of time. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Today though I have a post all about Vintage Inspired Party Shoes, yet again mainly 60's & 70's inspired. Whilst I was creating my last post on<a href="http://katiemarielennon.blogspot.co.uk/2016/11/jazzy-boots-perfect-for-festive-season.html"> Jazzy Boots Perfect For The Festive Season</a> I saw so many amazing heels when I was looking at the online clothes shops. So I thought I would share my finds with you lovelies! Once again I have featured shoes that are under £100 because for my budget that's a realistic amount to pay.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisOifkyJmV13zL-QRDcJjoVLHcAIP65C48CRd2qRrNVgGimzyyP0bGHwCK4V6aAS64P8gtZp6yAgUcgvCHDaX6vPKW_SuTFy8OGKl1FHHSZ4kabIGnBwaYz5eJLwY3B0qzQlijB8JGulDg/s1600/vintage+heels.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="341" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisOifkyJmV13zL-QRDcJjoVLHcAIP65C48CRd2qRrNVgGimzyyP0bGHwCK4V6aAS64P8gtZp6yAgUcgvCHDaX6vPKW_SuTFy8OGKl1FHHSZ4kabIGnBwaYz5eJLwY3B0qzQlijB8JGulDg/s640/vintage+heels.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Honestly, River Island is the place to go to for all your party shoe needs!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">1. <a href="http://www.riverisland.com/women/shoes--boots/shoes/gold-croc-strappy-block-heel-shoes-689005">Gold Crocodile Effect Strappy Block Heel Shoes</a> for £45</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I'm a massive fan of these shoes! I don't know what it is in particular, I think it's a combination of the colour and the style of the heel. I like that there are two straps. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">2. <a href="http://www.topshop.com/en/tsuk/product/shoes-430/magnolia-embroidered-platforms-6019775?bi=40&ps=20">Embroidered Floral Platforms from Topshop</a> for £34</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">These shoes aren't very glitzy but, the floral embroidery would definitely add something to your outfit! The style of the shoes are platforms so they would add a touch of vintage to whatever you are wearing.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">3. Sadly I can no longer find this on the River Island website so, I have a feeling that they have all sold out.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I loved the jewel details on those shoes, they made them look expensive.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">4. <a href="http://www.riverisland.com/women/shoes--boots/sandals/gold-textured-block-heel-sandals-691591">Gold Textured Block Heeled Sandals from River Island</a> for £30</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">There is just something about these heels that makes me think of 70's disco, if that makes any sense...(probably not). I'm huge fan of the style of the heel, which is the same as the Black Embroidered Heels (no.6). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">5. <a href="http://www.asos.com/new-look-wide-fit/new-look-wide-fit-glitter-heeled-shoes/prd/7572113?iid=7572113&clr=Silver&SearchQuery=&cid=4172&pgesize=36&pge=1&totalstyles=967&gridsize=3&gridrow=1&gridcolumn=3">Glitter heeled shoes from New Look</a> for £24.99</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now these are definitely the most festive heels of the lot, with the metallic colour (silver) and the cheeky glittery heel. They make me think of Twiggy at Christmas because of the Mary Jane style to them, very Sitxties!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">6. <a href="http://www.riverisland.com/women/shoes--boots/sandals/black-embroidered-oriental-block-heel-sandals-690812">Black Embroidered Oriental block heel sandal from River Island</a> for £48</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">These Oriental inspired embroidered heels are so nice and I think are very unique looking. They would look nice with a midi skirt and a turtle neck.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">7. <a href="http://www.asos.com/new-look/new-look-velvet-block-heeled-shoe/prd/7127843?iid=7127843&clr=Black&cid=4172&pgesize=36&pge=1&totalstyles=967&gridsize=3&gridrow=2&gridcolumn=1">Velvet Block Heeled Shoes from New Look on ASOS</a> for £24.99</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I had to get a bit of velvet in somewhere didn't I? I like the addition of the single strap because I find when I wear any shoes without straps that they fall off the back of my feet, plus I think it makes the shoes look even cuter.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">8. <a href="http://www.riverisland.com/women/shoes--boots/shoes/metallic-strappy-mary-jane-shoes-690891">Metallic Strappy Mary Jane Shoes from River Island</a> for £35</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you want quite a party shoe that has a bit of glitter these would be perfect for you, in the images on the website they seem to be quite subtly sparkly. They also look like they are a nice height especially for people who aren't very confident walking in heels. Also, the glitter heeled shoes from New Look (no.5) that would would be perfect for that too.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My next post will be all about my winter fashion essentials, I might even include a quick drawing</span><br />
