It's Studenty



Blazer - H&M (old stock)
Dress - New Look
Super Cosy Tights - Primark
Necklace - Courtesy of Chelsea :)

- Hey guys! Yesterday was a good day for me - I enrolled at my new college! Even though travelling there will be draining and difficult for me to fund (I'm still trying to apply for different support options) I'm really looking forward to starting this photography course. I just hope hope HOPE that it doesn't disappoint and turn out like Writtle did because I was so excited to start there and it was horrible. I also hope that I can make friends with everyone, especially as I'll be two years older than most of them. Usually when I'm on my own with a bunch of people I've never met before I just go really quiet and say nothing which is bad. I never know what to do though! I start in two weeks time and we're going bowling on our second day which I hope will turn out well even though I can't bowl haha.

- Anyway, the clothes! I got this blazer in the beginning of the year and I really like it. It keeps me warm and looking good haha ;) The dress I only bought a few weeks ago when it was new stock but it's already disappeared from the website! I'm really annoyed at how quickly New Look are turning over their stock at the moment. I bought a skirt a size too big (again, new stock) and when I went to try and exchange a few weeks later it had gone from everywhere: Lakeside, Chelmsford and online. So annoyed because I love the skirt and it'll be awkward to take in. I don't see the point in shops doing it either especially if their target group is students and young people - the ones that don't have loads of money! They're the ones that will probably have to save for an item, so if you take it off a few weeks after you got it those saving will be too late. I'm sure there's some reason why though, but as I don't work there I'll never know! Haha.
Anyway, I really like the dress as it will be good for winter. It's a nice thick material and has sleeves and I don't have a red dress! The tights are my lovely super cosies from Primark and the necklace is something I won in Chelsea's recent giveaway. I'm so pleased with it and want to wear it all the time! It's very quirky and I have nothing like it (which is difficult to believe haha). Necklaces are definitely my thing, thank you so much Chelsea! :)

  7. Thanks for letting me know about the Primark jeans - I love Primark jeans, they always seem to fit me really well! But the trouble is my nearest Primark is half an hour away and tbh it's crap and never has anything decent! :(
