    Another Autumnal week of photos. I still can’t get enough of this change of season, though am already a little miffed at all of the rain we’re getting. 
    I was very productive yesterday and managed to do a big wardrobe/beauty stuff overhaul. Believe me it was the best feeling in the world finally sort out my mess of clothes, out of date make up and tangled up necklaces. Out of the overhaul I managed to get rid of a good chunk of my old clothes, some of which are going to le mum & le sis, but alot will be going to charity. As much as I wanted to do a blog sale for some of stuff that’s still in really good shape and have only worn once, the hassle of organising it and posting and all that jazz was a little daunting to me. What about you guys? Thoughts here and there on blog sales?
    Apart from that it’s been the same old with placement – this week is gonna be pretty hectic though! I treated myself to Marie Claire and some beauty freebies, which I may review at some point. Have also been in a bit of a flailing mental state when it comes to catching up on my good ol’ fandoms and spent most of Friday evening feeling all of the things when it came to the last Glee episode (it was called The Break Up…’nuff said…). 
    Mine and Erin’s book blog project is now kicking into high gear, we’re very close to naming it and have already signed up some brilliant regular and guest contributors! It’s still not too late to get involved though, so hit either of us up if you still wanna write for it. 

    Keep on wishing…

    A little big busy and a little bit chill and a lot of awesome this week. 
    Kick-starting off with a brand new blog project in the form of an exciting collaborative book blog with the help of lovely Erin! I’m super excited to get this off the ground and we’ve already had a lot of interest from people who want to contribute. If you’re still interested check out my Tumblr post for a few more details or message/tweet me or Erin with an email. We’re hoping to get something out by this week (#tentative =S) in an email outlining our vision and master plan. In the meantime, inventive blog names for the book blog would be appreciated! – you will of course be credited!
    Awesome thing no 2. Autumn! I just really love it, that’s all ^_^ got out my lovely new Forever 21 coat today (despite it still actually being quite warm…Oops). But how is it October tomorrow already?! It means I’ve been at my placement for 2 months now. Madness!
    And exciting, exciting thing no 3….I’ve hit triple figures and now have over 100 followers! I’ve been so wrapped up in posts and writing and work that I didn’t notice until this weekend, but I’m just so unbelievably proud and humbled that you all choose to follow my ramblings :) A little celebration is in order, so I’m hopefully going to try and get on a 100 follower giveaway very, very soon! So look out lovelies :) and thank you again for following me!

    Keep on wishing…

    Another week, another round up…but the weather’s taking a turn into Autumn and I’m actually really excited. A new season of fashion is upon up us and I dug out my first knitted scarf. Autumn is seriously my favourite time of year. I love boots and coats and scarves and knitwear and tights and oh everything about this season. 
    I’m also musing about starting a book blog. I’ve been reading alot during my commutes and want somewhere else other than this blog to write about it, but I’m not sure I have the time to get into it…maybe do it as a collab blog? Thoughts? ;) 

    Keep on wishing…
