Turn My Way




Top - Topshop / Jeans - Topshop / Coat - Topshop / Necklace - Urban Outfitters

Oh hai! Not quite sure how I ended up taking a month long sabbatical from blogging but I'm finally back. After two long months of waiting Sky managed to connect our broadband but then last week I got really sick and literally couldn't move without needing to throw up. On the plus side I might have lost some weight? But I have no way of knowing as I accidentally knocked my Wii Fit CD down the back of the fireplace. Oh dear... Anyways I feel like I've got a massive backlog of things to blog about now including ridiculously belated posts about the Cosmo Blog Awards & the Leeds blogger meetup!

So this is what I wore today to the young parent's group at my local sure start centre. I spent the afternoon making felt haha. What is my life?! My whole outfit is made up of new things I bought in Topshop. I felt the need to get some black jeans so I got the Leigh ones which are really soft but a bit on the thin side. I bought this top after I saw the lovely Vivianna wearing it in one of her videos. Its massive, slouchy, comfy & perfect for everyday wear. I love it so much I bought it in orange too.

And I finally managed to find a Winter coat that I like! I originally wanted to get this one from Urban Outfitters but I couldn't bring myself to spend £120 on one coat. This one was only £76 with student discount so not too bad I guess. I've not bought a new coat since I got that Topshop sailor coat a few years ago so it was definitely time to invest in something new. Its really oversized so not sure if I should've sized down. I probably look massive in it but oh well. Its a lovely coat that will definitely keep me warm throughout the winter months.

  7. Oh god Sky take the mick with broadband - I don't think they even provide a reason why it takes so long. Very frustrating. Love your coat :)

  9. Oh well I'm glad you're back blogging now :) I love this outfit, especially the coat and that's not a bad price considering you'll get a lot of wear out of it. I always upsize on coats because then I can layer up massively and still be able to to fit my coat on :P
