Three things

Three things I love right now.

My new Mulberry clutch, the amethyst version of this necklace and the cute clutch I got for 50p at a boot fair last week.

I can just picture her

I had such a hassle getting this jacket to me from Leifsdottir but I really love it. I wear it for work sometimes and it really stands out in the sea of black suits and boring jackets. Unfortunately it does get very dirty up the sleeves so I have to be very careful where I put my arms. Not so easy squashed into a train with a billion other commuters.
I went to Brighton today and planned to take a mountain of pictures but stupid me forgot to put the battery back in the camera, so no pictures. It was so nice walking round the Lanes in the sun but after eating a huuuge lunch I got serious food- baby fatigue (as did my sister) and we ended up shuffling around like zombies.
I'm having major nail problems at the moment. They keep breaking and flaking and just generally looking crap so I bought some Sally Hansen nail stuff to see if it will sort them out. It should for the price it is.

Crystal

Remember these? Yes? They're back in the shop but I only have four so grab one quick if you want one.

Unscripted Moments

I decided today that I don't want to let my blog fade into nothingness. Which it has pretty much already. Despite literally no free time I'm going to try and squeeze blogging into my routine so good luck to me. I realised that after I stopped regularly reading fashion blogs, I lost loads of inspiration and forgot how much I love fashion so I feel like its essential for me to get back to it. Even if I do have to sneak in a few blog- reading minutes at work. Come on, we all do it.
Another less crappy side- effect of having a job is that I get regularly paid, which is still quite a novelty to me. I've allowed myself to treat myself to one item of clothing that is a bit more expensive than usual after every payday, so slowly I can build my wardrobe up until its full of good quality, investment pieces. This month it was this dress from All Saints. I bought it to take on holiday to Turkey last week but unfortunately, my suitcase turned up 6 days after I got there and I didn't get to wear it for the things I wanted it for. On the other hand, it was fun fitting 9 days worth of outfits into 3 days.
I love this rams head bangle. I got it for £2 in an antique shop in Hastings and its definitely the oddest piece of jewellery I own. My Mother thought it looked like it would be cursed and told me not to wear it. Maybe the curse stopped me taking a good picture of it. Who knows. Also, if anyone lives near Hastings and hasn't been - go. Its such a relaxing day out and there is about a billion cheap vintage and antique shops. Yes, that's right, BILLIONS.
Whilst in Turkey, I upheld my tradition of buying at least one ring per trip. I thought I was rather too restrained this time round as I only bought one. It's nice though. It's the turquoise one.
