CHECKMATE

22 January 2013


The wonderful white stuff has gone at last which means I can finally resume taking photographs. Don't get me wrong, I could have taken some but I just didn't fancy standing about shivering, y'know! In case you're thinking, 'she didn't really wear those shoes when it's this cold', I can tell you I certainly did. Boy did I feel like a moron when I got home and felt like I had frost bite! My poor toes. Embracing the hope of some sun with sunglasses too, a little optimistic perhaps, but that never hurt anyone. There is a bizarre thing going on with my hair in these photos - the top of my head appears grey and ginger tinged. Not loving it, I can't lie - though, I promise it doesn't look like that in person. Honest, eep.

I really don't wear these trousers enough. I call them my rupert bear trousers as they're obviously checked, but I've since realised Rupert's are very bright yellow and not actually similar in the slightest. Never mind, the name has already stuck! I think they're perfect to pair with these shoes and my boucle jacket. You could sell me anything with a Chanel label on it, so the similar style of this jacket was always going to win my heart. Swoooon.

I've spent the day basically talking to myself as I have a presentation for uni that I need to learn by heart, bit bored of my own voice now, I'll admit! Bloomin' can't wait for uni to be over and I can stop whinging/worrying about it all - sorry for the tedious natter until then. Popping to london on Saturday for a very much needed hair cut, to do some bargain hunting at Westfield Stratford and to grab some tea and cake with my favourite blogger gal pals which will be rather lovely - can't wait. If you fancy coming too, just tweet me! Now, I guess I'd better get back to talking to myself like a loon ;)

  22. The very first thing that you'll need to perform while availing a low credit score car finance is always to know your credit history moocowpaydayloans.co.uk this post dated payment is then held for your duration of the lending with the company and sold again by them, in the agreed repayment date.
