It's been a while....

Hi. I realise it's been a while since my last post so a big apology for that. I've had quite alot going on and also just got over the flu and so I have been rather tired. And I thought rather than write a half good post, I wanted to wait until my brain was a bit more in gear. But unfortunately here we are two weeks later and I still haven't posted anything. Long story short, I've got into a bit of a mini rut and figured it was high time I snapped out of it. A girl can't be helping her fellow petite fashionistas with a sleepy head in the clouds. So again, a big big apology and a promise to be on better form from now on.

So what's been going on during this gap.
Well I took a trip up to Hertfordshire to see my mum. Also it was my cousin's 30th. It was a great weekend filled with lunch consisting of a giant waffle topped with praline and ice cream with fudge sauce, at a cafe called Just Deserts. This was in a word...heaven! :)
And on Saturday night I had yummy food, smashed plates and danced in a very big circle. Yes folks, the birthday celebration took place at a Greek resteraunt. And wonderfully fun night it was too.
Since being home as I said I've not been on top form so my outfits haven't been exactly breaking grounds in fashion in the petite world. But i have been keeping as busy as I can going to show choir and meeting with my lovely friend Chantel. I must admit said activities did cheer me up immensely. some much needed me time was just what the doctor ordered me thinks.
Anyhoo. Now for some news in fashion land.
I have recently found some lovely tops and even a dress that looks and fits amazingly.
The dress is black jersey material with lace neckline. The skirt stops above the knee, and so makes my legs look not too bad for once :p
I wore it for my cousins birthday meal with black suede ankle boots for a rock chick look.

My favourite top is a striped vest top that I bought in New Look. It is long length but actually looks quite good hitched up by a very small amount with a thin black belt.
Admittedly I did buy this during the freakish lightning fast bit of heat we had. And I do realise we are moving into the Cooold time of year. But with a nice warm cardigan it'll be good for the winter too.

Which brings me to my next purchase. I had to buy myself a new coat today. No really I had to. My leather jacket I usually wear....well let's just say it may have met it's end. And so I hunted for about an hour in the general section of Primark until I faced the inevitable and went upstairs to the children's department. Now I know I rave about the teen section in NewLook before but I've also explained why. Primark children's clothes do look very young. Which is why I was very pleasantly surprised to find a leather jacket with gorgeously soft faux fur lining. In my size, plain black. Which in my books is a pass in kids jacket masquerading as adult coat on 4ft 24 year old. All for £14. Surfice to say, being on a tight budget this month. I was very happy to have found my emergency jacket.
I haven't got a photo of me in my new jacket yet. I shall aim to have one up for my next post though.

For now here is a run down of my recent outfits. There aren't allot considering how long it's been. But in truth due to my state of mind, my wardrobe hasn't been that inspired for a few days.
But I hope you like the ones I have got and as always I welcome any comments or questions with open ears and anticipation.

Oh I almost forgot. I found an amazing pair of skinny capris in NewLook Gen9/15. The feel amazing and I feel really confident when I wear them. Defiantly my star buy of last month.
