iPhoto weekly blogger ♥ week twelve

A night in Kingston
 Inside the Mango store (part of a University project)
 Pull & Bear Oxford Street 
 Inside Pull&Bear
 Oxford Street lights for M&S
 In the audience for ITV's new show Text Santa
This week has defiantly been the best week I have had since starting University. Rather than doing work I have been out drinking with the girls and spent about four hours in the Topshop on Oxford street, easily done though. Melody and me then headed down to Winter Wonderland and spent hours in fits of laughter, watching people fall over on the ice. If you've not been there, you really should go and check it out. 
For my second project I've decided to do Mango. We have to design our own garments and write reports on the store etc. It can be really difficult to get you own photos inside the store, as they don't allow you. But for anyone who has been inside the Oxford St Mango store you will understand why I chose it. 
Tonight a friend gave me tickets to be in the auideance for text santa. It was a really great. Christine Bleakley is so humble and lovely and even more gorgeous than on screen. I also fell in love with Pixie Lott's new song 'We just go on'. We had to wear Santa has and sing along, so I'm currently in a very festive mood. 
Also this week I got an internship with Anya Hindmarch. Im meeting with the wholesaler on Wednesday on Bond Street to discuss things. This week has honestly been to good to be true. Not only am I able to do an internship during the week, and go to University, I got a job which are allowing me to start when I come back from my Christmas break. I feel so lucky right now. 
I have an exam on Monday, but I'll try my best to fit an outfit post in tomorrow. 
I get to go home on Thursday, I am overly excited.

Foil with me

Barry M is the only nail varnish I buy. Simply because I love how thick and bright the colours are. There is nothing worse than watery nail varnish that takes forever to dry. I picked this up in Oxford St, Topshop. It was a choice between this or one of their new glitter collections. I opted for gold for the Christmas season. 
For the past two years I have had acrylic nails and Im still not happy with real nails. But Barry M help make them look better. This particular one only needs one coat, so its perfect.

Like a knife

Black Jeans - River Island
White Boyfriend Shirt - H&M
Jumper - Dorothy Perkins
Bag - Charity Shop
Boots - Matalan
The weather has got bitter. Hoping I get a fur coat for Christmas. In desperate need of one. This is the first time I have wore jeans all Winter. This bag was a funny buy. The girls and me were of to Essex and I forgot to bring a bag so we visited a charity shop and I ended up with this... Didn't even end up using it, but made time for it today. 
I don't normally show my bags because I use my DKNY bag on a daily basis. Simply because I hate the hassle of swapping things from one bag to the other. Maybe I should invest in some more day bags as well. 


I have a job induction today. Might have any way. They want me to start this weekend, which means wanting me to working over Christmas. As I have gone on though, I want to go home for Christmas. I have to ask them if I will be able to start in January. Fingers crossed. 


My obsession for The Hills has come back to me. I started watching them from the beginning again, now on season 5. All this applying for an internship brought my love back for the show.

I've never been anywhere as cold as you

Fur Hat - Vintage from eBay
Cardigan - M&S (for sale)
Jumper - Vintage 
Sheer shirt - Matalan 
Boots - Primark 
At last. A post is here. Just as I had finished it began raining, so it worked out perfectly in the end. I love this spot in the park. Its just over the road from where I live and Im going to take full advantage of it for my posts. 
This cardigan I got from a charity shop and is for sale on my shop. Its lambs wool, and I've had it on non stop, simply because it goes with everything. And this hat has to be my favourite purchase in a long time. When I visited a vintage fair with my flat mate, I fell in love with one I tried on. I managed to get this on eBay at a bargain price. Im now after a fur head band.

Im struggling to decide what hair to go with/stick with. When I was brown I wanted to be blonde and when Im blonde I miss being brown. Im thinking of just sticking between the two. I don't want to go back to all bleach highlights, thats for sure. Why is it such a tough decision.
I've not posted a lot. I went home last week, for a week. And was happy to leave my Mac Book at Uni. I had been sat in front of the thing every night doing essays, so was happy to not see it for a few days. 
After my lectures its to dark to take photos. So I have to take photos on my days of/early finish days. Next week ill be back on the ball. 
Only 12 days till I go home for Christmas. Makes Christmas so much more special.
