Ok, so I know I said I would be away for a while, and I still am (had an exam this morning and one tomorrow afternoon!), but I just wanted to pop in and say hi, and let you all know some exciting news!!

So you might remember I told you I was chosen to be one of five contestants in the Newcastle Fashion Week Charity Shop Challenge? So that happened on Saturday and my mum, my sister, my grandma and 2 of my aunties came up to watch. So in less than an hour, I had to find an outfit made entirely of clothes from charity shops for only £15, and above is the completed outfit, and, *cough* it’s the winner’s photo =D
Yes, I won!! I was so happy!! I got all sorts of lovely prizes, a £50 voucher, free haircut, free wardrobe consultancy, 3 months supply of Vitamin Water, and some Newcastle Fashion Week official briefs (!) and T shirt signed by Scott Henshall!!
I do have quite a few other pictures, taken by Ben and my mum, and my sister, who was my official photographer from the day! I’ll put them up another day because I have so much revision to do, but Beth got some pretty good photos! The one above is from the official photographer at the event =)
So that’s that! And I’ll be back soon with more photos from that, wish me luck in the exams!!

    Another old outfit – this one’s from about 3 or 4 days ago I think!! I can’t even remember what I did on the day I wore this outfit which is strange – usually I remember days or events by what I was wearing, I’ll quite often say: ‘Oh yes, I remember that, I was…

    Every so often I like to take a break from my normal outfit photos where I stand and pose in my garden/driveway/(graveyard), and Ben and I take the camera with us when we go for a walk with dog and take pictures wherever we go. Recently this has included the moors and the corn fields above…
