Mind the gate on your way . . .

Today started just a little bit strangely. For one I wasn't directly mad at the snow (which never happens, I almost never have feelings other than hate for snow.) But the other thing happened when we were walking into the park. Now firstly theres an LA gym on front of the park so they have barriers into the car park/ park.

Anyway a girl strides in front of us, neither of us are particularly paying attention until there is a loud resounding clang like metal on metal. I look up and the girl who was previously striding past us is now clutching at her forehead. The girl managed to walk into the barrier.

It's something you don't (thankfully) see everyday - so that at least gives me a reason to explain to people as to why I hate snow. It really is dangerous! thankfully she's ok,

but seriously peeps snow is a danger!

The Case Of The Demonic Child And The Colour Explosion.

I'm having a small fashion crisis. I stare at my closet and dont see my clothes, no outfit makes sense. I had the startling realisation that I have a severe lack of colour and pattern in my wardrobe. I wear a lot of dark colours lots of black, grey and white with the occasional blue and my bright red jeans. I need to seriously inject some colour, hence this colour explosion. 

Also a small child who did not belong to me or my family, screamed demonic murder at me in the park today. It was one of those children though . . . you know the ones I mean, the ones that stare you down and your like, what did I ever do to you? It freaked me out, thats to say the least.

So I'm beginning to think that theres a reason why I buy dark clothes, so the demons can't get me . . .

Mondays Ou . . . No wait, Wednesdays?

Black Dress: H&M, Grey Knitted Vest: Marks and Spencer, Belt: Primarni (primark), Bracelets: Gifted by my boyfriends parents, from Paris, Shoe/Boots : New Look

I got that Monday feeling, but its . . . Wednesday? It's blowing my mind! so much so that I almost fell down the stairs this morning, smooth or what? thankfully I found my footing again and made it into work safely! 

Embarrassingly I made myself a little poem regarding this post it goes a little something like, "When you got the monday morning blues you gotta put on your comfy shoes!" - You know the normal type of song for an outfit post. 

How have you've first day backs been? Eventful? Slow?

Goodbyes and Hellos

Over on WordPress+ I wrote this post and I discussed my year and my wish to look forward at 2013 with optimism, I came here to share similar if not the same sentiments with yourselves but it does occur to me however that at this point in the game you dont know a whole lot about me to start with. 

So I thought rather, wouldn't it be better to share a little bit about me here and then go on to share my resolution and hopes for the new year instead. Yes I thought you might like that.

Firstly, last year was a great year for changes. I changed my profession, student to career girl, events to entertainment, I changed my location having lived in London last January to Hertfordshire in the summer and to Kent in September. I've completely moved out of my parents house, i've worked an internship, worked a work experience which has changed into a job. I've helped take down a 80 year old family business and helped and watched a new one grow in its place. I have lost people, gained people. I started living with the most perfect man in the world and loved him whole heartidly found a place in blogging for which I feel fits me now. 

I've begun re learning more about myself, giving myself time and space to look at myself as I am now rather than as that naive girl I was last time. I feel more knowledgable and more importantly I am now more than ready to start shaking things up again, putting my best foot forward in 2013 theres no better time then the present to make changes for the better and on that track here come the resolutions. 

- To honour myself and my body and to start doing whats best for me.

- To not let fear guide me and instead let my heart make the decisions

- To let go of said fear and go for it, whatever that may be

- TRAVEL MORE! (must leave england!) 

- Work Harder, complain less, love and live more

Im actually beyond excited for 2013, everything feels so much more settled now than it was last year. I am on a new adventure having finally left education. Becoming an adult for real now feels like im finally sliding into who I was on the inside.

I cant wait to get stuck in and to not think ill start tomorrow, do that tomorrow etc . . . But to just start making changes and to begin this new chapter with a bang and with determination to build the life I want to live and not suffer for less.

So I'll see you all again really soon, with more looks, more clothes, more stories, more ideas and more, well . . . me?
