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.

Find me on

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!

I mean George, as in Asda! Silly.

I trundled into our reasonably new Asda living the other day, just for a nosey. I came out wanting what feels like the entirety of the George section. 

Now, I know George isn't  for everyone, and it definitely isn't up there with the likes of  Zara and Topshop. But, I really think the new seasons items are top notch. I wasn't too impressed with the Winter pickings, but Spring and Summer have really made me want to splurge.

Knits are still big, which for me, is good thing. Even in the middle of Summer, I'd probably still be freezing. 
I'm loving the wide variety of monochrome also, I think simple black and white are a great way to make your wardrobe more 'grown up', which is something I've been craving for a long time. 
Peplums are still very popular also. I know a lot of people are getting a little sick of it by now, but I personally love this trend and am yet to get on it. I just love the shape it creates. 
As well as monochrome, I am wanting to add a little more colour into my closet. I currently own a ton of blue pieces, so I think it would be nice to get some girly pink tones and bright yellows and lime greens too. 

I've picked out a whole load of tops, purely because I'd love to be able to just chuck all of mine out. (And by chuck, I mean give to charity.) I recently got a few new pairs of jeans/leggings etc just before Christmas, so these are really all I need at the minute. 

George is ridiculously affordable and I could pick up the fourteen pieces for only £160! 
You can just click on the numbers below to see each individual item.

So what do you guys about George at Asda?

Hello, you beautiful people.

It's been a few days since I last posted, purely due to the fact that I've had a couple of pretty tough days. I forgot to take my pill and it all kind of went down hill from there. Haha. All is good now though. I used the time to think about the things I was unhappy with, and how I can start to get back to being a generally happy person.
A lot of my issues come from my pants lack of confidence. I'm totally aware that sometimes I can be completely irrational and really hard on myself. Believe me, Liam tells me enough. 

From this point on, I'm going to try and stop being so hard on myself. I'm going to work on the things I always seem to be complaining about, and change the way I feel. 

Me

Excuse the posy-ness of these photos. They were taken four years ago after a huge relationship break-up, about six months before I met Liam. 
Weight is a big issue for me, as you already know. Preferably, this is what I'd like to get back to. It's one of those photos that I always look at and start to wonder how I ever got to where I am now. 
Friday Fitday will return next week. If I'm entirely honest, I've not been trying since LFW, and although I've only gained a pound or two since then, I'd rather lose them again. 
One thing I am proud of, is the fact that I haven't eaten red meat for over a month now. :) 
At least I can stick to one thing.

My hair is another thing I've been super self conscious about recently. Being something I'm normally known for, I feel like it's totally nothing special right now. I've ummed and ahhh-ed for days and I can't decide on a trim, a chop to a bob or to get extensions. I think I'm leaning towards the extensions at the moment because I love the photos above. 
I think I want a full fringe cut in too. Miss Lovato has inspired me!

The last thing I need is a revamp of wardrobe. I'm going to work on it til Xmas and hopefully I can finally feel confident in the clothes that I wear. I'm not going to go on about this little issue too much because it's something I seem to post about a lot. 

If you have any suggestions of salons in the Leeds-ish area, shops or websites. Leave me a comment down below. Also, I feel super cheeky, but if you have a brand etc and would like to work with me throughout this journey, then please email me at the address in my sidebar. 
My aim is to be happy with who I am by Xmas and I will make it happen. :)

Have you ever felt the need to re-invent who you are?

Hi guys! 
This post is exactly what the title says it is!
This is a wishlist of a few of the items I can only dream of ever owning. A lot of Unif, Jeffs and a couple of other brands!
I've focused on items from two of my favourite sites to browse, Karmaloop and Wasteland, these are also items that I usually go back to, time after time. 

If you could have all of the money in the world, what would be your first wardrobe buys?

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.

Miss Demetria Lovato, I need your wardrobe!!!!
After watching the MTV documentary I have yet again fallen in love with Demi's sense of style. I literally want everything, from the denim sorts to the flowy hi-lo skirts! I think her mixture of girly and grungy is perfect and totally me. 
Who's wardrobe would you like to steel for the summer?

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?

I keep on seeing photos like this everywhere!! Man, if I can ever afford to have a house big enough to have a walk in wardrobe, you can bet that it'll probably be 80% full of shoes. I mean, who doesn't love shoes?
I guess I can keep on wishing, until I get back into work, then it's save, save save!!
