Destiny is for losers. It's just a stupid excuse to wait for things to happen instead of making them happen. - Miss Blair Waldorf

Yippee!

Been at work all day, and it wasn't too bad today, we had chocolate behind the till and they are now significantly down. I have also discovered Ebay... I love it! It combines my competitiveness with my love of shopping! Total heaven! and you can get some absolute bargains on there! I absolutely can't wait to verify my Paypal and such, and start selling on their and buying more stuff. For now my poor boyfriend is footing the bill, it's a good thing he loves me! 
I'm also working on a new project, I found a jacket pattern that I really love and so I'm going to find some pinstriped material, navy and white I think, and make it into a beautiful jacket hopefully! But I'm still trying to find some fabric for now, so it's a bit of a pain, I might wait till I'm next paid and go on a hunt, since my bank account is currently suffering a little....
I've also brought new shoes and a top, I think my mother might kill me!

I'm also going to start up my Etsy business again soon and am going to sell on E-bay as well, starting with all the jewellery that I don't want or wear I think, but mainly for little vintage pieces since I know a lovely antique shop in Ely where you can by some lovely jewellery and think it might be fun to get the train to their once a month, but I'll have to see for now.

On the Ninth day of Christmas...


I love this advert... I love her enthusiasm, and just what she says and how she walks and everything, I also love the Dior building.
Anyway on the Ninth day of Christmas, I wanted the trousers to the 3rd outfit from the left, I love the navy trousers, especially with the cool floaty top. Diors new collection is quite bright and a little retro I think, very nice! I just wish I had longer legs! The shoes were also amazing in this shoe! And I'm in no way biased to Dior....

Such a good day!

Today was pretty great! So as you know I got accepted into IFB (Independent Fashion Bloggers) which I'm really proud of since I didn't really think I'd get accepted in as my blog isn't AS fashion orientated as some of the others are and that I don't update enough sometimes. But I got in despite and this did make my day a good start. I then went shopping with my mum and got to dress up a little, which every girl loves doing! I got a white blouse, a new coat which you can see in the slideshow (the navy one) and a white blouse, a ring, and some new underwear (Cause every girl loves some good underwear!) We also then went out to lunch, which wasn't as good as what it used to be when we went to the place, we've said this the last few times that we've gone.... and yet we still go?!
I've then sat and up-dated my blog, as you can tell, and I've had a good old look at some magazines, and attempted to sort out my room... I think it's messier than when I started? Got to love tidying occasionally. I've also rang my friend who is at her sisters in New Castle and organised to go to the beach on Friday, so there should be some good photo's from then hopefully since I also got some batteries for my decent camera! 
I still can't quite believe that Kate Moss is leaving Topshop though, I dislike that thought! However I will so be getting an item from her last collection, a ring or something I think. Since I think the clothes are a little expensive for my student budget sadly, but maybe for Christmas! I'm really looking forward to seeing what Chloe Green can do though! I loveee! upcoming Designers! 
I also managed the very top Slideshow on Slideroll, and I'm quite impressed with myself, although our windows do need a good clean, which I managed to not notice till I'd taken the pictures which is a little annoying. But I'll be wearing that coat when I go to the beach so hopefully I'll get some really nice pictures of it then!
Also! A little bit of news for you, I am trying to line up some interviews with up coming designers, or owners of businesses who sell vintage clothing. I thought that might be a little bit interesting and different! The competition will close on the 19th, so expect the week of interviews to be up not far after that! But I'll try to keep you posted on how that is going, but so far I've had some good response!
xoxo!
