    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? ;)

  • This Week…

    – Day #4 – Fawning over winter coats already – Bought these from Zara, can’t wait till they arrive! – Day #5 – Day #6 – Seeing my friend’s do RENT, very emotional night – O.J. & a walk in the sunshine to work – Day #7 – Finished up read Elegance by Kathleen Tessaro – Watched my little sister in Joseph & his technicolour – Day #8 – Wish magazine arrived! – 

    B.O.B ft Taylor Swift – Both of us

    Hectic week was hectic! Getting used to a new routine was harder than I thought and didn’t help with blogging lol. It also didn’t help that I went to go see my old theatre group do two shows, one of which my sister was in and the other, an entirely emotional affair. One thing I have been finding nice has been delving head first into work wear. I’m slowly getting used infusing my own style into a new environment. It’s also giving me an excuse to do a little online shopping ;) The placement itself has been really good so far, learning lots but lots more to learn in the next few weeks and I have a little handover with the current intern. 
    It was also exciting to get Wish magazine in the post! I’ve already had a little read through and I’m already finding it wonderfully witty and gorgeously illustrated. I’ll definitely need to do a little review of it soon! 
    Trying to write this post while watching the Olympic closing ceremony so forgive me if it’s a little disjointed :P

    Keep on wishing…
