OOTD: Springing Back into Blogging!

Gosh, it's been awhile. There's not been a post since the start of spring. Now spring is drawing to an end and the weather's been letting us know, With more and more warm days, it's almost time to retire jeans and jumpers. It was a little cooler today bring some respite from a recent heatwave and giving me a chance to wear my favourite jeans and cardigan!

With the end of spring, comes the end of university semester. Hopefully this means more regular blogging! I'm not going to make any promises as I start work experience soon. Still, I expect that Dot and I will try and make this blog fresh again.

Without further ado, the outfit:

I was a bit shy about getting a photo taken at uni!


It's pretty easy to see I decided not to get my hair cut short. Look how long it is! I'm going to keep my locks for a while longer because it's so easy to pull it all back into a ponytail. This seems like a nice convenience for when I do commence work experience. Also, it's a bit vain, but I think my hair has been looking rather nice recently. Here's a close-up for now and there will be more hair photos in the future!

I was trying to look happy for the photographer but didn't quite manage!

A throwback OOTD, and I'm back!...I think

I have allowed blogging as a priority to fall by the wayside as of late - but never fear, super-wide and very far-reaching readership, hope has come! I have renewed vigor in the blogging side of things and present to you yet another OOTD. Let us hope that this vigor remains, for I have many a post for y'all to look forward to. This includes shoe unboxings. Three of them. Yeah, you heard right. Or read, rather....three. I have bought three pairs of glorious shoes that are dying to be featured here. But anyway:



I put this outfit together a while ago - as you can see, this was when I was growing my hair out and hadn't gotten that lovely golden copper balayage through the ends of it yet. This was a time when I was still experimenting with things in my wardrobe, and when I thought my creepers were super edgy and alternative. I now wear them more than my sneakers and flats....they're just a great, solid shoe. And they add height. A whole 2 inches of it. And that, makes a difference.

Additionally, this was also the time I think I was getting as close as I am to my everyday style these days. Clean and simple. Though it's kind of funny thinking about it now, I think I've worn that pleather skirt out a grand total of 2 times in my 3 years of owning it. I am so sentimental with my clothes.

I think I've come a long way in terms of my style. I worry and think less about looking strange or purposely looking like the baddest bad-ass out there, and I'm just dressing for who I am. Even if on that particular day I am competing for the world title of world's laziest slob...

Have you been undergoing some style changes recently? What have you noticed change in yourself, how you feel and the clothing you buy?

I hope you all have a fab week!
