Weekly Update

Good Morning!


I woke up really happy and relaxed today, I also have a day off which is a bonus and my little sister is coming over tonight and The Future Hubby is doing a gig which is sure to be good.

I also read this really funny article this morning, and its so true...
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1318491/Great-wardrobe-delusion-The-12-items-clothing-women-NEVER-wear--dont-fit.html
How true is this? I have hundreds of pairs of clothes that dont fit anymore but I never get rid of them. One of my favourite bloggers got rid of all the clothes that were either too small or she doesnt wear. Lucky for me I was able to pick up a piece in her blog sale...


The funny thing about this jumper is I brought this about 5 years ago and lost it! Which I was devestated about, but now 5 years later we are having a little reunion the jumper and I.

In other news I brought this cute dress from ASOS in their sale, £65 to £20!!! Its so cute and the broderie anglaise pattern is just adorable.

I ♥ this!
Well this is all my news for now.

Flower Headress

I'm having a dilemma...

What type of head dress should my beautiful sister wear for my wedding day. I need to find a good style that will fit into our Garden Party theme, also she has lovely long locks and so I will need one that looks good with her hair down.
Here are some that I have found online


My fav!

I heart PARIS

My wedding is in June next year and im so excited about it. What im most excited about is the honeymoon- the Future Hubby and I dont like to follow the pack and wanted an adventure honeymoon instead of laying on a beach, so we decided to drive through Europe ending up in the place that I have wanted to go all my life...PARIS!

I literally cannot wait- so since I have 8 months to wait (eek) I thought id get in a little bit of paris style love


Here's an outline of our trip : )

A Disgusting Trend

I cam into work today and read the paper online, im so so so sick of seeing the same stories regarding kids getting bullied and then either killing themseleves of dying. How in a world of 'ipads' are we still allowing this to happen to our kids?
It is totally unacceptable for our schools to be allowing this to go un-noticed. It really pisses me off when schools say that they have had their budgets cut and so they are unable to provide the kids with the support or help they need. BULLSHIT. What we have to remember is that teachers are no longer these caring influences in our lives, they are there to earn their salary and try to make it through the day with hangovers, just like the rest of us. There has to be a teacher on duty during breaks, but still these kids are being left unoticed for all sorts of bullying to happen and no -one is noticing-how?
 Not only is this a problem at school but at home, kids have facebook and the like and are getting bullied through these social networking sites! What parent wouldnt know the password to thier childs account or check their history-its not being strict its being a good parent.

Read this story and think what justice is there for such an innocence to be so unhappy...

The Next Chapter

WOW...this week has been absolutely crazy so much has happened. So last Wednesday The Future Hubby got a new job at a fantastic firm, we went out to celebrate and then as I got home I reversed into another car (The Future Hubby was not best pleased), THEN the next day I got a new job!!! YIPEE FOR MEE!. Its not that I don't love my current job I just needed somewhere to progress too and now I will have that chance. I'm super duper excited but sad to leave my extended figgers family.

I'm going to be working at a local newspaper and I'm really looking forward to it. Me and the Future Hubby have truly been blessed this last week and I'm feeling a little overwhelmed...so I went shopping (not an unusual occurrence through any type of mood).

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥


In my second blog I wrote that I had just brought the Asos Khaki cape coat, as much as I loved that coat it did not look good on me. My breasts are FAR to big for it and I look like a hot air balloon! However I stumbbled across this gem from Next which I love and so it has been ordered (got to wait 4 weeks tho!)
The picture is tiny sorry but next dont allow people to copy pics! bastards

 
The Future Hubby also DJ's part-time and has a gig on Friday at a local bar (exciting!) Its only a local event so I don't need to get too trussed up but I have an image of my outfit in my head and here it is....





Also my super cool little sister is coming so I need to show her up!aha

I'm going to post up my October playlist- this month Ive been regressing to 50's, 60's and 70's music, with a few current dance mixes thrown in. I love playing this list as loud as possible with incense and wine...mmmmmmm. Watch this space.......
