Monday

This is full Primarni (Primark) and probably is all under £5 each.

It is so nice and warm too, as here in England it is sooo cold still.

This is one of my 'work' outfits our dress code is smart casual so you can pretty much get away with generally anything in reason but I like to take the smarter side as it gets you in the frame of mind for work.

Wednesday

International Women's day

On Wednesday, I was at work and I wore this shirt from Matalan, I love everything about this shirt the polka dots give it a little quirk and individuality, it's hard to see because of 'pixels' or something but the shirt is also vertically striped, I think the whole stripes trend especially vertical are going to be a massssssive trend for year.

Outfit Details:
Shirt: Matalan
Jean: F&F
Shoes: Primark
Phone Case: eBay

Helloooooooo!!!

Sorry I haven't posted in ages.....

I did actually have a full plan of tones of posts, but, life got a bit crazy at the new year, and I just got out step and forgot to blog, so, I though I would start a fresh and try and start posting regular again!

I have recently however, been 'blogging' outfits over on my Instagram, I have shared my outfits everyday this year so far give or take a few.

I thought to easy me back, I would share a few with you.

I was thinking of maybe incorporating it into my page here and doing little style diary that maybe I could post on a Sunday as well as a Friday post so let me know in the comments below what you think 😁

So here a few of my favourite looks so far!

My Advent Calendar

Hellloo!

How are you?!

This week I though I would share with you my advent calendar.

It is so cute usually I just get chocolate one but my Mum said that I'm not child and I can't get one (what does she know?!) anywho I got a yankee candle one in a atempt to be a bit more grown up however I do miss the chocolate ones!

It is honestly though really nice I have new tea light to burn every night with a christmasy smell and then on the 24th I get a special christmas eve candle!!

These are the six different candles, there is a variety, so each day you will have something different to smell.

The green one is called bundle up, which gives you a bit of a snow and Christmas tree feel, I believe its a pine Christmas tree scent and it smells amazing!

Next we have the white one, which is called winter glow, it smells a bit like fresh washing, but with a Christmas cosiness to it.

The pink one is called snowflake cookie, ohmygosh I kinda want to eat it, it smells so good! (Disclaimer please don't eat your candles you won't feel too good!)

Next we have the burnt orange one, this smells like Christmas to me, I feel the notes of it are orange, clove, cinnamon and nutmeg it just smells soo nice.

The next one is a creamy white colour, however my photo didn't quite pick that up, it's called Christmas Cookie, it smells amazing, it smells of cookies obvs and Christmas bakes!

Last but not least, we have the red coloured candle, it smells like mulled wine and a wood fire, I love to have it on when I have the fire on in the winter time, it just enhances the ambience. 

What type of advent calendar do you have let me know in the comments below!

Until Next Time

Gift Ideas!

Christmas is nearly here and if you are stuck on what to get your mum, dad. brother, sister, aunt, uncle, grandparents, cousins or anyone else, DO NOT WORRY ... because I have some gift inspiration for you! 
(not sponsored, I just like the gifts) 

Christmas Jumpers!

HELLLLOOO!

I imagine you will be getting your Christmas jumper soon if you haven't already, now I know some people feel Christmas jumpers are dare I say tacky..? 

But I have got my favourite jumpers that are so stylish, people will be envious when they see you wearing it!

I have picked 4 out so you have one for each week in the run up to Christmas.

I love this one so much it! 

The quote on the jumper is from Elf which is one the best Christmas films!

It's an absolute bargain too at only £15 which for a jumper is pretty good!

Another classic is this one. 

The red and white of course is the classic Christmas colours you need.

Andddd, it's another film jumper, it's from Home Alone 2 and it's only £15 and comes in loads of different colours!

This has to be one of favourite ones this year, I absolutely love the detail the gingerbread man, it's a fairly simple design as a whole the jumper, but I think it's very chic I love as well how it's not brash and you can wear it and feel comfortable. 

Guess what?! It's only £15 as well!

Then last but not least pouts not sprouts, that's what we want, I'm not going to lie, I love Christmas, but the one thing I hate about it is Brussels sprout, the smell of them makes me sick, so that's why this Christmas I may have to get this jumper plus it's in petite so perfect for me as I'm only 5'3'', so I think this may be on my jumper wish list.

This jumper is a little more expensive than the others, but come in still at only £20!

Until Next Time

Merry Christmas

also this is not a ad/sponsor thingy I just liked the boohoo jumpers!

Christmas Cookies

At Christmas I love baking, and this year is no exception.

So with a little inspiration from Pinterest and some cook books I have my version of Christmas ginger cookies!

POMPOMS!!

So now everyone loves the pompom keyrings even the Kardashian's/Jenner's have been spotted with them!

At some places I give it them for being good business minded, but, they can be expensive, so, I thought today I would show you how to make them!

What you are going to need

Faux fur 15cm diameter (in colour of your choice)

a tape measure 

a sewing needle

A palm full of stuffing

Thread similar to the fur

A key chain clasp

A small length of elastic

The first thing you are going to do, is get your elastic, and, keychain clasp, hook the clasp through the elastic, and, sew the elastic together so the clasp can't fall out.

Next, you need to lay the fur flat and sew in the elastic so you know where to start from and end.

When you have sewn it together, you need to do a concertina stitch (I don't know if that's what it's called but I have a visual for you below) 

But basically this will make the fabric come together and make it a pompom shape.

I usually do 4 bits at a time and just make my way round the circle.

Once you have it all sown, pull the thread round so that it gathers round, don't forget a knot in one end so that it doesn't all undo your hard work!

Once you have got it so it is partially gathered, get your stuffing, and gather the rest, and, pull tight.

Eventually, it will look a little something like this.

You will need to tighten round and tie a knot tight and then you will have your very own pompom!

Then you can have as many as you like you can even make them for friends its a really nice home made gift!
