Never say never

Okay, so i may be a little bit behind with the times- but oh my god fur (faux) headbands!!

I hate the fact that because i have quite a high forehead i can't really wear my hear in a middle parting, and these are just beauty's for me cause now i can and my forehead is hidden! Never say Never!

Id seen such a beautiful one in Topshop like the one I'm wearing above, except it was in a burgundy red colour- SO nice! Buuut as usual with my luck they were sold out within like a day! I tried online and they also didn't have any so i went in a big fat mood as you do! Then i went into River Island and spotted this beauty! It was in the sale!! Previously had been £14.99 (i think) and i got it for £6, BARGIN! Its basically just a headband with elastic at the back to stretch over your head, full of faux fur! They did have some other colours too, a lilac and a grey and possibly some others... however I'm not sure if they still have them cause they were selling fast! I was a little worried that it would make me itch or actually hurt my head after wearing it for so long, but its so comfy! Heres my lilac purple one...

This one is just as fab (looks a little pinky on this photo but its more lilac in real life).. probably a little more outgoing as its brighter but still really cute! This was actually only £3 in the sale so a defo must have for me!

Are you a fan of these headbands? x

Food diary, Week One

As i mentioned in my previous blog post, I've gone back to my healthy(ish) ways; or I'm at least trying to... and I've started back at the gym! When I'm not at the gym i try to walk for at least 20 minutes a day, and i also find playing on things like Just Dance is a good easy workout. Ive not gone completely crazy on 'diet food', but i have cut down a lot and I'm trying to cut all junk food out! Also I've banned eating after 6pm! My plan is I'm allowed treat foods (within a reasonable fashion) at the weekend, which will be from Friday night to Sunday dinner!

A few people have asked what sort of foods i am now eating instead of the usual chips, crisps etc.. so to make things easier for me iv decided to log what i actually eat in a day on my blog (food diary), that way i can see what I'm consuming, and obviously you get to nosey at it! I won't list my food intake over the weekend as theres no point really as it will only be trashy food :p

\Week One/
Monday:
Breakfast- 1 piece of toast with low fat butter
Lunch- 1 banana
Dinner- 1 chicken fillet with 4 small new potatoes
Snacks- 1 apple and a few grapes

Tuesday:
Breakfast- 1 piece of toast with low fat butter
Lunch- 1 apple
Dinner- beef and tomato cup-a-soup
Snacks- 1 banana and a few grapes

Friday:

Just as a sort of disclaimer, the items i have ate and the amount of food i am consuming is an amount that my body can tolerate, please do not do this for yourself as it is in no way an example, its purely for my own benefit. For your own diets you should see a GP or someone who knows what you should and shouldn't be eating. Thanks.

I will never be the same; without you...

So bloggers I'm back, gosh its been a while! I apologise for my lack of blog posts; it has been a while. From my last posts before my break you will of seen work was becoming very busy for the christmas period. Ive been working 11/12 hour shifts which would finish at 9pm at night and then had to be back in work for 8.30am the next day for a 9 hour shift... that was my life over christmas! Then Christmas day was my only day off because of work, and on that day i had to cook christmas dinner for 5, yes 5! I hope you all had a lovely christmas and got lots of nice presents!

I did want to blog about my christmas, but i was that busy i just didn't have chance. My work front has quietened down a lot now, so i think i can finally say i will have time to sit down and blog again *yaay* .. I suppose sometimes life does just take over and before you know it so many things have taken place before you can actually sit back and realise the time that has passed!

Not too much has changed regarding me since my last posts, i started back on healthy eating and I'm back in the gym at long last! and also the obvious shown in the photo above, i had some pink put in my hair & i love it! Ive actually had a bit more put in since that photo was taken... i shall perhaps blog about it in the coming weeks, after all I'm back and the world is my blogger :)

Im not too sure what my next blog post is going to be, but it will be tomorrow so be sure to look back for it :)

All i want to do is be more like me, & less like you..

Cardigan- New look

T-Shirt- Primark

High-Waisted Skinny Jeans- Primark

Hat- Primark

Just thought id do this little OOTD even though it is not todays outfit, I've just had this picture for a while now & not yet used it! Most of this outfit comes from Primark, and it is just a simple and comfy one! I do think that Primark are actually stepping up their game at the moment as they have quite a few nice things in, even if they have started to put their prices up!
Its started to snow where i am today, I'm not sure if it will stick or not as the roads are still a bit wet from the previous rain we have had... but all in all so far it is trying its best! My car is covered in snow bless it!
As we all know it is now officially the christmas countdown, wooo! I aren't really feeling very festive at the minute, as from tomorrow through to next Saturday which is actually christmas eve, i have a lot of shifts at work to do including a lot of late nights... and I'm only getting christmas day off, booo! Im sure by the end of my shift on christmas eve i will be ready for that yummy christmas dinner :)

Hope you all enjoy this last week before christmas... enjoy the snow if you fortunate to get it!

A touch of pink..

Hello lovely's... Long time no see! Im back and I'm hoping you will love this post as much as i love the purchase I have done the post on! I'm sure most of you will of been watching, X Factor! It has now finished for the year! Little Mix won... Not too sure on my feelings about this as i really wanted Amelia Lily to win, but I'm sure she will go on to do amazing and i still wish Little Mix well! Anyway, if you were watching you may of noticed Amelia Lily wearing a beautiful pink faux fur coat as she did a gig at her home town... If not here she is wearing it.

I fell in love with this coat instantly, and i was on a mission to find it! I new that Topshop (what i thought at the time) did a similar one in grey and also in a blue/green colour, but i had no idea they did this beauty! After a successful trip to the Trafford Centre i was browsing around as you do thinking can i not just win the lottery to buy the whole of this shop! ... Then i saw it in the corner of my eye!

This coat costs £95 ... Im not sure if it is avaiable online but obviously you can check here ... I adore this coat, the colour is just like a faded pink and it is so so warm. It has two pom pom balls that hang from the hood, and fastens via duffle pegs. Defo one of my best purchases from Topshop, and I'm sure is on a lot of peoples Christmas wish list!
