I'm working away at my new job and still loving it. I'm working with an amazing girl Becky who I discovered also has a blog so you should TOTALLY check her out because she has an AMAZING sense of style. Her blog is By Becky
I was so excited to learn on Thursday that I WON the Aussie Hair AussieMore competition (see my post here for what I did!). I won a £250 gift voucher for ASOS and found out that ASOS were also giving 25% off for students so armed with the boyfriend's student card I bought these 2 dresses
ASOS Midi Dress With Contrast Belt - £45.00
ASOS Midi Fit & Flare Dress with Basqued Waist - £45.00
I love this style of dress, which would be perfect for work and also going out. I'm not sure what else to get with my voucher though - I'm so used to trying not to lust after things since I bought a house! However I think being allowed to buy things at ASOS has caused problems and now I want things all over the place.
Also on my lust list is this dress from ASDA
Belted pleat dress - £20
I also love this jacket from Topshop where I have a £30 voucher left from Christmas!
Asymmetric Belted Jacket - £58.00
Moving in is going well, but slowly. Here's my bedroom at the moment (my hangout! I love my bedroom)
I still haven't found homes for everything, and the spare room is a mess of suitcases and boxes. I also have to get someone to tile the kitchen so we can finish it and decorate the 2nd hallway (which I'm hoping to start tomorrow). Moving is such hard work. I seem to spend my life unpacking, washing up and finding a home for things!
I will try to blog more this week. I have a few ideas so I'm going to try and write them up when I have time and schedule some posts. I am trying, bear with me and I will get back to normal when I've finished unpacking!
Much love to you all, especially the other Aussie Angels who made me cry with their kind words of support xxx
Huge congratulations on winning the Aussie hair challenge hun, your posts were brilliant.
ReplyDeleteI've had my eye on the same dress from Asda since i spotted it in the magazine the other day.
Trying to convince Neil to buy it for me.
Can totally sympathies with the unpacking/cleaning/finding homes for everything. Takes time but you will get there with it all xx
