So how do you guys like the new wishlist layout? I've literally spent the last three hours getting all creative and I actually really enjoyed it. 
I feel it looks a lot nicer than the simple white backgrounds I had previously been using. 

Upon looking into my wardrobe this morning, rain pouring outside, my house feeling like an igloo. I realised that I don't actually own any clothes suitable for Winter. It turns out that throughout the "Summer", I chopped up too many pairs of jeans, leaving myself with only one old battered pair, 3 jumpers, wearing very thin due to their age and a couple of pairs of leggings suitable for an angsty teen.

Over the Winter, with my non existent funds, I really want to transform my wardrobe into something more grown up and weather proof. 

I'm absolutely loving skater and tunic style dresses at the moment. Perfect to team with tights, knits and chunky healed boots. I always tend to lean to the darker end of the colour scale in Winter also, I find it's more me and makes it easier to create a ton of looks with only a few pieces. 
I'm definitely in need of some more bottoms too. I chose some thick leggings, because I hate to say it, but I really do like my comfort, and some high waisted pants to add a touch of sophistication. 

I think a good range to textures is key in a Winter wardrobe. It's a very easy way to keep an outfit interesting. 

What would you pick if you could get a whole new Winter wardrobe?

Hi, my loves!

As a rather poor female, I can't help but spend a lot of my spare time window shopping on Ebay. Both my watch list and wish list are full of things that I can only hope to one day own. 
So, being the generous person that I am, I thought I would share a few bits with you all. You  never know, you may like these things too. Some are quite the bargains. 

Now, I may get a little jealous, but let me know if any of you lovelies buy any of this!

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!

Hat - ???
Top - Originally from George at Asda, DIY by me
Leggings - Originally from Primark, Dyed a darker colour by me. 

I'm off out to view a house today, so I thought I should go with an outfit less in your face than the last one I posted. Obviously, I couldn't go without a cross though. Believe it or not, this was the first top I ever DIY-ed and I'm still in love with it. You can find out HERE how I did it. 
The leggings were originally a light brown, almost skin colour. (Why I ever bought them, I don't know!) I tried to dye the black the other day along with another pair and they both failed to take the dye, luckily these have turned a little darker which means I am more than happy to wear them now. 
I'm finally feeling more and more confident in myself to post OOTDs. My weightloss is going well and I'm still looking forward to seeing a smaller me in OOTDs of the future. Make sure to follow my Friday Fitday posts to see how I'm getting on. 
Have any of you guys got any favourite DIY's you can link me to?

Hey Lovelies!
I'd say this week has been a pretty productive one. I've done all sorts, from customising a couple of tanks tops and finishing a pair of denim shorts I started weeks ago to posting my first OOTD and clearing out my old crappy wardrobe. It's safe to say I am now pretty clothe-less, I literally pulled out everything I didn't like any more. That being said, a lot of these items are now up on my Blog shop (button in the sidebar) and if anything takes your fancy just shoot me a message. Keep an eye on it because a good few more items are yet to be added. 
As well as all of the DIY-ing, we also celebrated the Queens Jubilee by walking up the biggest hill in town to see the beacons get lit. Since then I have been on a real health kick and I am now undergoing a diet detox. 
I will be posting another new video on my Youtube channel tomorrow and if you haven't already seen it, you should go back a few posts and watch the last one. I can tell you now, you will laugh your socks off. 
I hope you have all had a really good week.

Leggings - Ebay

First off, I'm really sorry about the quality of this photo. My camera battery was well and truly dead this morning. 
This right here is my first OOTD in a very long time. I did initially want to start doing them a few months back, but my self confidence just wasn't what I wanted it to be, so I kept on putting it off. 
I've been posting a couple on instagram (find me @whenflowersfall) here and there to just to get a feel for it, and I finally feel like I am happy enough with myself to start posting on the old bloggity.
A few months back you wouldn't have seen me dead in these types of bold, in you face kind of clothes. I would have been in a pair of jeans and a hoody. Boring, right? The way I was dressing was really influenced by the way I was feeling, so as you can probably tell from todays outfit. I'm feeling a whole lot stronger on the depression side of life. 
I am loving anything black at the moment and I'm currently in the process of dying some more of my old clothes black, let me tell you, black dye is sooooo messy! 
If you want to see more OOTD's from me then please let me know. I love doing them and I've been loving getting all creative with my wardrobe recently. 
I may even feature some of my own DIY'd stuff in the next one.

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

6. Sabine Mole Skin Leggings With Side Fringing £13.99
7. Prudence High Waisted 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!
