Happy New Year

Happy New Year everyone, I hope you all had an amazing night.

This is my outfit that I wore. I didn't want to go too over the top as we only went for a meal at a local Indian, only a 5-10 min work from my house which was a result! No expensive cab fares for me! So I settled to wear my favourite leather shorts and a new jumper that I brought in the Next sale for £20 reduced from £40. I added some spotted tights to try and break it up a bit. My dad said I looked like I was going to a funeral when I had opaques on! He also asked me why I had a dead rat on my shoulders. Have to love dads!


Outfit:
Jumper: Next
Leather Shorts: Topshop
Spotty tights: Primark
Fur coat: Primark
Clog boots: Next
Bag: Next, stolen from the Mother.
Nail varnish: No 7 Milan 70
Watch: Toywatch

I have a few new years resolutions that im going to try and keep to this year.

1. Manage money a lot better.
I believe I am the worlds worst with money. I get my wages and they are without a doubt gone within the week. No joke I survive on under a tenner for the last 3 weeks of every month. Don't get me wrong as soon as I get paid I pay off any debts I have outstanding but once that is done I just seem to fritter it away. Be it on clothes, going out or endless amounts of magazines. Since I graduate this year I want to go lots of places. I have Dublin, Poland, Cornwall and Turkey in the pipeline and I need a lot of money to make this happen!

2. Exercise more
I have a membership to a jazzacise class and before christmas I was doing really well. By eating healthily and exercising I managed to lose 12 pounds, But then my coursework got on top of me and it all went out the window. I stopped going and started eating junk food again. But now Im going to make the most of the classes beens im paying £17 a month! I want to lose at least a stone and a half before we go to Turkey in the summer.

3. Concentrate on the people who truly matter
I dont make friends very easily, the majority of them I have know for most of my life. Ive been feeling like a bit of a mug recently and have decided that I dont need to treated that this. People who I thought were my friends proved that they only wanted to talk to me when they had nothing better to do. I have an amazing close circle of a few friends and a phone call at half one this morning from my best friend confirmed that these are the people that I need to concentrate on. These people are the ones who have my back, tell me when im being a idiot and will listen to me when i talk about mindless rubbish. I might not see these people for months on end but when I do its like we have never been apart.

My favourite boy and I :)



It was nice to go out for civilised meal with friends. As you can see im the only girl. Yet again! Most of my girl friends I have know for so many years and they all now live away so I dont spend that much time with them. These are my sixth form lot who are my boyfriends best friends. So I tag along with them most of time! Now Im one of the lads and I dont even think they see me as female anymore haha! We went back to someones house and didnt end up leaving until about half three. It was really good, I like to talk to people now rather than shout over the music. Im too old for that now!

Also a big thank you to all my new followers, it means a lot that you read my ramblings!

  2. Happy New Year! I'm glad I'm not the only one to survive on a tenner for weeks because I've spent all my money on things I really 'need'. I'm going to be better this year! x
