I’ve never really got that unusual sad Monday morning
feeling. I’ve always quite liked getting up early and making money. I generally
enjoy getting on with my week and starting Monday productively (the way it
should always be started). So when it comes to Sunday, I don’t dread Monday. I
embrace it and try to make the most out of something so daunting and glum.
I’ve had a really quiet weekend, I basically spent the
two days stuffing my face with incredibly unhealthy foods (a few too many Nutella’s
might I add) and binge watched crappy television programmes and films. I definitely
took advantage of cheat weekend, to say the least. I also finished watching ‘Buffy
the vampire slayer’ for the first time, and I’m feeling a little emotional
now it’s all over. I was highly disappointed with the ending though, that was a
massive let down (damn you crap endings, constantly making me feel empty
inside).
I haven’t felt like leaving the house at all the past few
days. My mood has been as dull as the weather has been. As much as I am loving
these grey days, the bitter cold has seriously put a damper on the way I feel,
and I am honestly so fed up with winter now. I’ve always suffered with the
cold, it doesn’t matter how many layers I wear… I am cold, spring needs to
hurry before I freeze. Or borrow every warm thing my family and friends own.
The hit ‘Orange is the new black’ series is
on trend in more ways than one this season. It’s time to rethink the tangerine
shade. Traditionally orange is meant to be looked upon as a sunny colour,
however, it’s been given a winter makeover. Orange might look like a shade with
a few less than flattering associations; let’s think large over the top orange
airline in the sky, or over used applications of fake tan. Yet for this season,
I feel like orange is finding itself on the enormously more stylish ground. Think
warm and comforting shades of terracotta, rather than something horrific that
most probably requires a large pair of sunglasses.
I blame it on the brightly coloured seventies, which has
been controlling trends for the past few seasons. Beautiful shades of orange
are key to channelling the amazing boho vibe of this decade. The easiest way I
think to work the trend into your wardrobe is through suede. Outerwear works
with warm cinnamon shades also, and they are definitely an investment buy
(however, to incorporate the colour into your look more, opt for accessories).
Earthy shades, like the colour I am wearing above, are
ideal for mixing and matching. If you aren’t feeling very adventurous, separates
can easily be paired together for more basic and modest looks. The look won’t
be disappearing anytime soon, and I am loving the new updated styles that are
appearing in the high streets right now.
The midi dress I am wearing above is a stunning fit with its
wrap over design. It has a plunge neck line, tie waist and two front pockets on
either side. I found this dress to be very flattering for a smaller chested
girl like myself. I’ve always liked dresses that enhance the waist due to me
having a very small waist line, so a tie waist is perfect. I purchased this beaut
of a dress from my favourites at Missguided.
I paired the orange wrap dress with my delicate black
courts from New Look. These heels are a perfect evening heel. They literally go
with everything I pull together when I’m in a rush.
