Starwars at T in the Park

I had quite a lazy day yesterday. A day for relaxing. I'd had quite a busy hectic week, so it was nice to not do any tasks. I'm not going to lie and say that's how I'd plan to live out the day... But I'm trying to learn that it's ok if plans don't work out, or go the way you originally thought they would. Just try and get back on the track, that is life. Today I'm aiming to finish a lot of blog & youtube work, so that I don't fall behind. Plus, I'm not doing anything else so I want to use the time wisely and feel proud of myself at the end of the day. I'm also hoping to have a mini clear out this weekend, again if i don't do it tomorrow that's fine! But, I think it needs to be done at least by sunday!

As much of a relaxing & task free day that it was, I did have my cousin and her new boyfriend over. As well as actually stepping out the front door... So rather than doing the same old grab a baggy jumper and whatever pair of jeans/black leggings that are clean, I thought I'd show you what Id wear on a casual day while still trying to keep it fresh & chic. There really is no reason to let style go out the window when you are having "a hair up kind of day", I know I sometimes also fall into the trap of thinking, no need to try today. But there are days when you're still wanting to look cool & fresh while not giving a fuck about life.

So since yesterday was a laid back day, I got some of the tasks I wanted to do today. I've also set myself a few goals for tomorrow as well! But, i'll need to be up at a decent time tomorrow as I'm off out for a dinner date with someone else from work! As I said, It's been a busy week & there's no plans for this week coming up at all! Im hoping to get a lot of blog & youtube prep done this week. Just so that, if I get busy again I don't need to worry about pushing myself too much and meeting deadlines. Chris and I did end up going out for a meal, but I never managed to get outfit photos as it was too dark. Just means It's an outfit I can pop on another time for you guys.

Outfit Details
So as I said it was a casual day so I wanted comfort. And you really can't go wrong with leggings so I popped these awesome ones on from Blackmilk. I then added an old festival top as baggy tees really are my go to. With the pointed metal flats & leather jacket I think it really added some coolness to the outfit. As well as looking like I "tried".

SOMEWHERE ALONG THE COUNTRY PATHS

Heya everyone :) What have you been up today? When we got up we went and done our weekly food shop. We were going to go for another bike ride but the weather is/was extremely hot today! Also im not 100% as i missed 2 injections the day before yesterday. Oops! So my heart was feeling a bit sore... bad isnt it? So instead of wasting the day we decided to stuff ourselves silly ;) We went to our usual favourite spot, Amarettos'. Honestly, if you are ever in or near Glasgow make a trip to Bridge of Weir! Its one of the best restaurants ever. The lunch time menu wasnt on as me missed it by few minutes or so. There was, however a specials menu on and we've never seen it on before so it was a bit of a surprise. Chris (fiance) ordered from the specials for a bit of change but i stuck to the main menu.

Chris had meatballs in napoli sauce with garlic bread to start with, then had a sausage, mozzarella and caramelised red onions in a napoli sauce calzone. I had potato & leek soup to start with then had breaded chicken with mozzarella & ham covered in a napoli sauce.

Todays outfit was pretty much thrown together as i was in a rush to get out the door, i was pretty hungry and so was Chris. I dont think ive ever worn this dress so i threw it on and because of its light material. Waay to hot for me! I put on my red snake skin heels as i thought they were a nice touch, plus i wanted to wear heels, but i had to be careful what to put on. I have a sore from another pair of heels on my ankle at the moment. I have very sensitive feet due to my diabetes so i need to be very careful what i wear. The white bag, obviously matches the white in my dress and i didnt have to struggle to get it out of the mountain of bags in my wardrobe. To be honest thats why i go through stages of just over wearing certain bags, i cant be bothered to have a fight every time i want to change my bag. The hat i thought would add a nice lady-like touch aswell as helping with keeping me cool!

THIS ISN'T ME..

Hiya everyone how are you all today? Our summer in Scotland has now been and gone. Now replaced with the grey skies and the grey mood that accompanies them. I have had a very lazy day, not getting up until past mid-day! I know, im very naughty. I was very tired from yesterday so i fell into a very deep sleep filled with loads of crazy dreams. As Chris is normally on breakfast duty, he made us both to a square sausage (lorne sausage, sliced sausage, flat sausage) sandwich. Its a scottish delicacy. If you ever come to Scotland you have to try them, none of that normal sausage crap :P

All we have literally done today is run to Asda to get some puddings, as i cooked some dinner for Chris' grandparents and us. I cooked my famous honey-roasted gammon. Its one of my favourite meals and meat! With it we had rosemary & garlic roasted potatoes with cauliflower cheese & brocoli, with added cheese on the top. Fatties. Here are the results.

I wore this outfit a few days ago, well last week, and never got round to posting it. I think i just had a few lazy days then i was visiting my dad. But it dosent really matter as you are getting to see it now! Now the reason for the title post is because i felt well out of my comfort zone wearing this. Its very pastel & pink. I know i look like a girly girl but girly things and pastels do not make me feel comfortable! I need to add something dark or a kind or rock/grunge vibe to it. But im glad i pushed myself and wore something out of my comfort one. I do think ill wear more pastel outfits and maybe ill get used to it, but i think i will maybe try to add something with a darker edge to make it more me and feel comfortable.

GUNS DONT ARGUE

Hey guys, sorry i haven't been around lately! The weather in Scotland has been so miserable! If its not been raining the freezing wind has been out and its really not fun for outfit photos! I don't really like taking photos inside ether, for some reason photos inside really don't compliment me at all! Ill try and figure something out for the up coming cold months! We have been having the odd sunny day but its still freezing and because we haven't been up too much i don't feel like dressing up as much. I've also been rushing to get college work to do but im being so lazy atm! I don't know if its just because its the winter and i want to hibernate for the next few months.

Plus with my blog, its a daily style blog, im only going to blog about the outfit i've worn that day. Its more real for my and my readers i feel. Plus i don't want to give an illusion about my life with making up outfits. If i need to wear something big and fancy for something i will, im not just going to put it on so i can blog about it. It doesn't feel real to me and like i said id feel as if i was being fake, lying to you all. Im not saying i don't have nice things and bla bla blah but im only going to post an outfit on my blog if i've ether worn it that day or a few days before. I feel that way my readers can connect to me and my blog more because they can see what i've worn and done that day.

So this is what i wore today, its pretty casual but i knew i had to post sooner or later! lol I have been pretty casual recently i just cant be bothered with heels i just want to be warm and comfy atm and because i'm at college and taking photos, running about in heels aren't really suitable! Im trying to use jewellery a lot atm to jazz up my outfits, make it look like i've tried harder than i have. Thats all i'm really allowing myself to buy now is jewellery. Glamorous all the way i say, the one i wore today i would describe as a statement piece and thats what im into and it really does make a difference!
