Tuck it in!

I always tuck my Tee into skirts, probs because most of my skirts are high waisted and so this looks best but I have found a new appreciation for tucking tops into trousers.

It's the return of the anti-rebel!

When I was in school we never tucked our blouses or PE shirts in , taking it as our right to free our waistband from bunching up, uncomfortable  material. Going all the way against it I sat in detentions for this cause, we rolled up our shirts under jumpers to hide it from these waistband thieves... only to be stopped in the corridors to be asked to do the embarrassing act of shoving the front of it down the skirt whilst everyone watched.

Now I find myself tucking my tops into my trousers .......I should be ashamed of myself.

I have been doing it a lot with these trousers (well I say trousers, they are elasticated and all that fly/pocket detailing is fake, they're treggings really!) I think it because it gives more of a severe look like army trousers.

I had a weird realisation this weekend, I've been feeling really stressed about deadlines and jobs to do lately, combined with losing my job over Christmas and stressing bout getting a new one but in the shower on Saturday I just had this overwhelming feeling of calm, content and just Happy being myself in my life. (and its far from perfect, not that I think a perfect life would be so interesting)

I am a happy person, but it was just a lovely feeling (and no I didn't have the shower on too hot) and it has continued so, I am not stressing and just enjoying everything, my little walks in the morning, wearing what I like, chatting to people I love, all the little things that I think we don't make enough of!

So Happy feelings to all of you, hope it rubs off <3

Here kitty,kitty,kitty...

Oh I wish I had a kitty, a cute little one to sit on my lap, snuggling in the warmth of a blanket, when I sit here to post, but for now I will make do with leopard skin....

 I like an animal print, or two, or three- OK I admit it I have an absolute obsession with animal prints and these jodper leggings that my cousin bought me for CChristmas satisfied my craving enough for today...

( I apologise for the horrific facial expression, I have resorted to using the self timer and change my face at least 10000 times in the space of 10 seconds and this is the result)

The shirt which I wear as a jacket was an amazing find for under £5 in a charity shop, crushed velvet with metal studding along arms and collar, I had bought it before I even saw the label!

First day back and I actually enjoyed myself, glad to be back creating and looking forward to rounding off this project at the end of this month!
Had the fun experience (although i forgot to take photos..soz) of having my leg cast with plaster today, it was very cold, then hot, then felt kinda numb but....  i enjoyed it! haha it was for my friend's Art project.

I would also like to share with you a photo of one of my fellow Art buds, Caz, after admiring her 70's inspired outfit for the whole day! So cute with the floral blouse and high waisted pleated skirt! Her parted hair and duck egg nail polish set off the outfit wonderfully!
