Since giving birth and losing over 30lbs, you'd think I'd be back in my pre-pregnancy clothes. Well, you'd think wrong. It seems someone forget to tell my hips and bum and unfortunately I'm going to have to work a whole ton harder to lose some more weight before I can even get my jeans up, let alone fastened.
With all of this hot weather, I've really been struggling to get out of my pjs. They are probably my coolest clothes I could wear, as my wardrobe is full of thick knits and leggings.
Now the things on this wishlist aren't all necessarily hot weather appropriate, but they are items that I have my eye on.
I'm giving myself until Christmas to lose a few more pounds (read many), so hopefully I can treat myself soon. I'm finding it hard to persuade myself to buy new pieces now as I'm so unhappy with my size, but I'll get there. It's just going to take some time as I have to eat a good amount for breastfeeding.

Evening!
Today's little post is just another Christmas wish list. The majority of the things on here are items that I really don't need, but love.
The only things that I need at the moment are some new clothes, and shoes. Being preggy obviously means that a lot of what I own at the moment doesn't fit, and I'm not really wanting to spend a massive amount of money on clothes that are only going to be worn for the next five months. Shoes on the other hand...
Since getting Bug, I think it's safe to say that I have gone through at least eight pairs of shoes; or should I say, Bug has eaten his way through them. I've now mastered the art of actually putting my shoes in a cupboard and I'd really love a few pairs of great foot protectors that are going to last.
The other items really are just things that I've had my eye on for a while. If you're a Yankee candle fan, you really must try Fireside treats!

Hi beauties,

Now I don't know about you guys, but I for sure am loving the festival trend that's floating about. What with moving house and other things that just drain money away, I haven't attended any festivals this year. But, that's not to say that I can't enjoy the fashion that goes along with it.

I don't usually shop on ASOS. I can never really find anything that grabs my eye and makes me want it, until now. I officially want the majority of the site. Making this wishlist post was pretty difficult and I could have added so much more.

The cuts, the prints, the overall relaxed feel of everything above. I want it all! I'm only hoping that it'll still be available when I have some real pennies to spend and I can finally revamp my wardrobe. I've never actually managed to do it. I buy one or two things and still I'm living in tatty, boring clothes.

With the new hair, I want a new look. I need to find my 'fun', 'different' Sam again. 
The above thirteen items together would set me back £210.50. Not bad if I do say so myself. I just need to start saving!

xoxo

Hi beauts!

It seems to be that time of year again, the time of year when I'm wanting a total style overhaul. This happens on a regular basis and it usually doesn't even get as far as actually happening. 
This time I think it may just happen. 

I've been absolutely obsessing over Vanessa Hudgens' style recently and I think this may be the route I'm going to go. I've been reaching for my maxi dresses and skirts a lot, and maybe when I've managed to shift a few pounds, I might even brave a crop top or two. 

I'm also thinking of changing my hair (again!) Blonde is nice and I always end up going back to it, but I'm already sick to the back teeth of my roots. I feel I need something still as vibrant, but just a little less damaging. 

Nothing is set in stone yet and I'm still toying with a few ideas.
Let me know who your current style icons are in the comments below!

xoxo

Liam and I hadn't planned on doing anything tonight, but we decided at lunch time to go out for some pub grub instead. It's not going to be anything fancy, we're just going to our closest Flaming Grill, but it';; be nice to get out of the house and do something that we don't often do. 

I hope you're all having a good day!

I won this gorgeous vintage leather bag and I absolutely love it. Next time I use it I need to remember to take a photo of the clasp, it's so unique!

T-shirt - ??? I stole it from Liam
Maxi - Primark

It's the first day of Liams two weeks off and we've been running around town just getting some errands done. We haven't really got any other plans for today. Just some relaxing and an early night. 

I've been obsessed with the jacket, ever since I received it on Saturday morning. I'm literally wearing it with everything. 

Sorry this is such a short post. 
Hope you all had a good Monday.

Boots - Ebay

This outfit has a pretty long history! 
Orange Circle very kindly sent me this T-shirt, but unfortunately it didn't get to me before I travelled down to London. After a couple of weeks, it turned out that I hadn't actually sent them my new address! Big whoops on my part!!! I honestly thought I had. But, luckily I managed to track the t-shirt down and it was sitting by its lonely self at the collection office.

Since I now have the T-shirt, I really wanted to show you what I would have worn. Like you may have seen, I did end up wearing one of my old battered shirts from OC anyway. 

The shirt jacket was taken with me down to London. I did plan on wearing it, but thanks to the lovely British weather, I felt it was a little too cold to wear it. 

I absolutely adore this outfit and as soon as I get the chance, I will be wearing it out. 
Liam has the next two weeks off work, so you never know, we may actually do something fancy. 

Hope you are all having a fab weekend!

Hi lovelies!
Ta Daaaaa!! I'm finally revealing  my new hair colour. After experimenting with the lighter purple shade, I thought I'd take the plunge and finally dye my hair the colour I've been craving for a while! 
Today, I started my new health kick with Liam and it's safe to say that I'm pretty damn hungry right now, but hopefully all will come good and it will pay off. 
Hope you are all having a fab Thursday!

Sheer Midnight Black Long Maxi Skirt - £13.00 (from £25.99)

It's been a little while since I last made a wishlist, but when I came across the Glamorous Website I felt like I needed to. 
I can't help but be a little obsessed with black recently. I feel like I need to own more black. It's such a staple colour, everything goes with it and I just plain love it. Other than that, I really craving some Beetlejuice jeans and a denim jacket. 

If anyone would like to donate to the 'Get Sam a new wardrobe fund' please feel free to do so. 
Haha, who am I kidding. 

Glamorous is an amazing site and hopefully one day I'll be able to treat myself and have a little splurge! 
Have you ever bought anything from Glamorous?

If you follow me on Twitter, I would like to apologise. Recently I've been blathering on about my lack of decent clothes and my dire wardrobe. 
Along with a lot of things, fashion is something that suffered in my bad months. I dressed dowdy and plain and I had no confidence to pull off the clothes I love. Luckily, I am finally getting my own style back, my hair has been dyed pink, rather than the plain brunette I dyed it months ago, I'm wearing a lot more brighter colours and I'm finally wanting to give my wardrobe a total revamp!
Unfortunately, where I live jobs are very sparse, and even though I'm now in the right frame of mind to get back to work, the job opportunities just aren't there. I take a little comfort in knowing that I'm not alone and a friend of mine is also struggling to find work. 
I wanted to create this post to show you guys what my wardrobe would be filled with if I didn't have the financial issues holding me back! 
I'm very much loving print leggings, loose tank tops and absolutely anything with studs or spikes. Shoe wise, even though I am 5ft 11", I am craving anything with a platform, and again the addition of spikes will only make me want a shoe even more. 
Being a slightly 'curvier' girl, I feel like I have to have a lot of confidence to wear such fashion, and I honestly feel like I finally have that confidence. 
The moment I manage to get some work, I am saving my pennies and going on a mad wardrobe overhaul. This could in all honesty take months, but I am promising you guys now that once I am happy with what I wear, I will be posting many more fashion posts and OOTD's. If I were to do it right now, you'd just see me as the dowdy person I was six months ago.

Hi lovelies!
With all the talk of London Fashion Week, live streamed shows and photos galore, I have never wanted to restock my wardrobe as much as I do now. 
Now you all know by now that shopping is the last thing I can do right now, so I've indulged a little with Polyvore. I've been using it on and off since 2010, but right now I'm hooked. 
As you can see from last nights play around, I'm really into anything rose gold, muted pastels and slouchy sweaters. I've recently seen a lot of this colour theme floating about and I honestly think it's perfect for Spring. 
I do on the other hand though enjoy a more grungy sense of style. This is where my personality shines because I'm always wanting to change my look. 
Dip hems are also going to be another big statement for me this year. I'd really like to get into wearing more skirts/dresses this year because I'm honestly your typical lazy jean kind of girl and if I'm honest, I usually feel like a massive scruff. 

What do you guys have on your wardrobe wishlist this year?

Hi Lovelies!
I've been looking for some new leggings to purchase for this winter but I really can't make my mind up! I've picked out my top 8 faves and I have 4 from each of my favourite clothing websites, so I thought I'd run a little poll.

Which pair do you like best, and which company do you prefer to buy from? Just leave a comment in the box below and let us all know what you think!
(Click Photo to Enlarge)
1. Lola Velvet Full Length Leggings £10.00
2. Annie PU Lace Panelled Leggings £10.00
3. Hannah Knitted Aztec Leggings £15.00
4. Lauren Criss Cross Design Knitted Leggings £12.00
5. Kiara Heavyweight Leggings With Suede Style Patches £18.99
6. Sabine Mole Skin Leggings With Side Fringing £13.99
7. Prudence High Waisted Leggings £9.99
8. Tammya Velvet Leggings £9.99

I think I'm swaying towards the Boohoo Aztec leggings because I'm crazy for anything with aztec print right now, and the missguided velvet ones, I can wear them with almost anything, a big oversized knitted jumper  or a tan coloured winter trench coat. 

Do forget to tell me what you think!

Hi lovelies, 
  so does anyone else have their favourite clothes that they always want to wear? Mine seem to change each month, so I thought I'd share mine with you. With it being cold and wintery, I would probably be silly to wear some of this stuff, so it's not necessarily stuff I am wearing right now, just stuff I'd like to wear.




What are your wardrobe obsessions at the moment?

Hi Lovelies!
It's a yearly tradition of mine to create a wishlist on polyvore. It hurts me to say that I will most probably never get any of these things, unless that it I magically get a new job and buy them for myself. Last years wishlist certainly had a lot less on it, and I think somehow my taste has become a lot more expensive over the year.
So this is this years wishlist, I'm going to list my top five things on there, but I'm not going to bore you with then whole 19 items. 
1. A camcorder, preferably a HD one, but I'm not picky. 
2. Viktor & Rolfs Flowerbomb perfume
3. Urban Decay Naked Palette
4. Sober is Sexy tank top
5. NYX HD studio photogenic foundation

So anywhoooo, here's to being a good girl and keeping my fingers tightly crossed that Santa is nice to me this year.
