It's My House And I Think It's Time I Got Out

Jacket - H&M,    Crop Top - Miss Selfridge,     Jeans - Topshop,    Shoes - Vans,    Bag - Ted baker

Hello! I am back with another outfit post finally! I recently bought some new clothes and have been loving them so thought I'd share on here! A couple of weeks ago I visited Manchester and ended up going to the Trafford Centre (which if you're not familiar with is such a massive, cool shopping centre in Manchester in the UK). As always I couldn't leave a big shopping trip without visiting a shoe shop and getting some new Vans haha!

As you can see here I bought some black classic slip-ons, which I've had my eye on for a while. I can't stop wearing them with my new Topshop Joni Jeans (one of my favourite skinny jeans around) which are ripped at the knee. Both items are so comfortable and great for everyday wear! 

A couple of days ago I also spontaneously bought a new jacket from H&M. I don't often buy stuff from H&M as I find it a bit hit and miss but I've had my eye on some shoes which are sold out in my size everywhere :( Anyway so this jacket caught my attention and I had to try it on to put my mind at rest and then I just had to have it! Although, I should probably tone it down with the jacket and shoe shopping as I have quite a collection growing haha!

In more exciting news my 21st birthday is approaching!!! I can't quite believe it to be honest, it's come round so fast. I have a party planned soon with friends and family so I'm looking forward to celebrating in style... with a few drinks of course ;)

 Hope you enjoyed my quick little outfit update! I'm off to repeatedly listen to the band 'PVRIS' as I've just found them on YouTube and now I can't stop listening haha

Cya later, Natalie x

Take Some Time To Simmer Down, Keep Your Head Down Low

 Crop Top + Joni Jeans - Topshop, High Heels - New look

Quick little outfit post! I went shopping the other day as I had some money from my birthday recently and I found these little beauties in New Look! Most of my shoes are black so I decided to go for red to add a bit of colour into my life haha

I love these types of high heels/wedges with the thick heel and platformed sole as they are super comfortable especially on a night out when you are stood in them for hours and dancing etc!! They are also a little safer than the thinner heel as after a few drinks when you're feeling a little merry you can be a bit unsteady on your feet!

It's my best friends birthday next week and we're heading out for a bit of clubbing so I may end up wearing this outfit!

Anyway, I have some more outfits lined up for some posts in the future so keep your eye out! :P

Introduction + 20th birthday!

So it occurred to me as I approached my 20th birthday that I'd spent a lot of time saying I would start a blog but never actually doing it! Well here I am a day after my birthday finally starting one. New year, new start and all that! I wasn't quite sure what to blog as my first post but I thought a little introduction and a few pictures from my birthday night would be a good place to start.  

Hello! My name is Natalie, I'm 20 years old (going to have to get used to saying that!) and I live in Surrey in the UK. I am a massive music fan, not too fussy on the genre as long as it's a good song! However, some of my favourites include Bastille, The 1975, Imagine Dragons, McFly, Paramore and Twenty One Pilots! I love spending time with my two best friends Fay and Shane, who I have known most of my life and we all get on together like a house on fire! 

 This may sound a bit cliche but I also love a bit of travelling and so far in my 20 years of life I have been very fortunate enough to visit quite a few places, with Florida being one of my favourites!

 I have the cutest dog in the world called Jack (not biased at all) who I'm sure will feature on this blog, one day I would also like to own a bearded dragon though!!

Anyway don't want to blab on for too long but this was a quick introduction!

As I mentioned before it was my 20th birthday on Saturday, it was made even better because my best friends who go to university were home for Easter so it was the first time we'd been back together in a while! I woke up with a numb toe, cut lip and scratches on my leg so as you can tell it was a good night!!

There were a lot of drinks and laughs involved and it was a much needed fun night! My outfit of the night was a toss up between two dresses I ordered from ASOS, plus some surprisingly comfortable shoes from Tesco!

I'm aware this post is rather long but I had a lot to get in! At the moment I'm thinking I will be featuring outfit posts and generally anything that interests me on this blog! Well done if you've read all the way to end! Hopefully I can get this blog looking a bit more jazzy and not so plain looking once I know what I'm doing haha!
