I've always had an obsession with bright prints on large t-shirts, and when i found this crazy-galaxy-hollymolly tshirt i knew that i have to get it!
And i've finally found my perfect military jacket that goes with absolutely EVERYTHING, no honestly im like wearing it all the time, i think me and the jacket became one!
....and alcohol hehe, to be honest our university's annual art and fashion exhibition is my favourite thing about being a student, it's like you get the chance to look at young talents, talk to them, take samples of their work before they will get famous. I absolutely looove the atmosphere in the art corridors, everyone is chilling, some are watching short films, others looking at interior designers' models, and there is me grabbing cute postcards, photos of artists to stick to my wall, you've saw it in my post about my room, and as you can see i have a bit of obsession to stick everything colourful what i come across to straight to my walls! (I have no idea how am i gonna take it all off to be honest, my landlady will be maad) But back to art, unfortunately i was to busy chatting, so i forgot to take a lot of photos, but here is some of them that i managed to take, i hope you'll like them ^^
Living the life as an independent young adult can be quite unhealthy, due to chronic lack of time, messed up sleeping pattern (parties, deadlines, part-time job- ain't nobody got time for sleep!), unregulated eating habits and so on and so on. Therefore the idea of getting a box full of healthy cute snacks delivered straight to your door sounds like a perfect solution! I randomly discovered Graze website from its promotional campaign on twitter where all the new customers can get their first box for free. All you need to do is register (you will be asked to give your credit card details, but you can delete it and cancel your automatic future deliveries straight after you'll receive your free box, as company uses an automatic delivery plan), choose the healthy snacks you wish to receive and click order! The delivery is super quick and as i said you can cancel your future deliveries straight away if you don't want to pay. I must certainly will use Graze's lunch boxes in a future, once i'll get a proper graduate job (paid, i hope:D). And let me show you the real evidence of these healthy cute things <3 font=""> 1. The box itself contains 4 little boxes with different snacks like raisins, berries, flapjacks, nuts and crackers depends on what you put as your preferences on a website's menu really. You will also receive a little booklet with information about the company,detailed description of your snacks' energy value and couple of vouchers for your friends.
2. Here are the snacks that i've ordered:
Sadly, berry flapjacks haven't survived my hunger attack, rip
If you, my dear readers like what you saw i have a voucher code that you can use to try this lovely snacks yourself :
This month promise to be eventful- new place, new job (hopefully ha!), new experience and new adventures!
In these past 3 years i have managed to collect so much stuff, it's ridiculous! Sometimes i'm having a hard times to find my bed, lol. Therefore i decided to get rid of some of my clothes that i don't wear anymore (even though i always think, i will find something to wear them with, but obviously it never happens) and sell them all on Ebay, if you, unlike me are currently looking to update your wardrobe for a bargain price then please don't hesitate and have a look!:)
Here are some of my favourite items, that i just can't pull off
Well, the time has come, i am officially graduated and i can say bye bye see you never to a 15 years of education,,brrr. So now the unstable, young adult future is ahead of me, in this last few weeks i've been trying to apply for variety of jobs in London along with room hunting. Stressed much?!!?
At the moment everything is kind of falling apart and stability is leaving me, once again! I think the hardest thing of living on your own with all these responsibilities in another country is the emotional, psychological factor, when you constantly feel that you don't belong here and you always feel insecure about your ability to be the one "who will make it to the top".
So now i'm just trying to see the light in the end of the tunnel and pull myself together. And here are some of the photos from this weekend, enjoying my short-time freedom and rare summer weather! ^-^
I'm very sorry for the lack of posts recently, i was (and still am) living a life of forever tired student 24/7 trying to combine my part-time job, volunteering at Oxfam charity shop and be a good girl who keeps attending to most of her lectures not to forget the-word-that-cannot-be-said-out-loud -DISSERTAATION. Brrr, but anyway i though i will give you people a sign that im still alive and waiting to have more time on my hands to get back to blogging. Today i want to show you some pics of me fooling around and doing everything possible to distract myself from doing work hehe ><
I had this phone case for a while now, but i forgot to upload a pic of it here, so voyla!
Stay classy San Diego and i'll try to post here more (pinky promise)
As i have a day off from work and the weather doesn't look very promisng,i decided to spend my time watching inspirational movies, and here is one, which i was absolutely amazed about, it's called Bill Cunningham New York and basically it's a documentary about a street style photographer who works in a New York Times, lives a very modest lifestyle and is absolutely inlove with clothes.
This kind of people are inspiring me to move forward no matter what and don't waste my energy, money and time on things that i don't need, the simpler you live the richer you are.
I highly recommend you guys to watch it, i will put a link here so you can watch it online
1.I've got this jumper for just £2 from a charity shop and it was absolutely new with a tags. The brand is called "The Orphan's Arms" that i never heard about before, but when i checked their website their have a pretty decent clothes, such a shame that they are too pricey - http://www.theorphansarms.com/
2. Another nice jumper in 60's style, i will probably wear this jumper with black skirt and black skinny jeans with my hair up in a bow.
Small, black John Lewis bag which will be my 2nd small bag, because i'm so used to a massive bags, because i could put everything on earth in them, but there are some situations in what carrying a big bag could become a problem (like go out and dance with your huge "forever alone style" or accidently hit somebody, who is sitting in a busy bus with it while you're trying to get out- been there-done that).
And the last but not least, my old bag which i decided to renew a bit and make it look crazy and immature just like its owner.
Soo as i'm a student at the moment it means that i'm kind of on my first stage of becoming an independent adult (boo), so i have to earn my own money which leaves me in a constant "broke gal" state, but to be honest there is a bright side of it. I become like an expert in saving money. Sales, charity shops, reduced shelfs, special offers, name it- i've done it. And my recent descovery is a Freebie websites where you literally can get all sort of stuff for free, from skincare samples to books and food, it's all just comes to your hands for nothing! Everytime when a postman dropes these goodies in my letter box i feel like it's Christmas time and i'm a little girl running down the stars to get my presents, hhaha. And just to prove how awesome that is here is a photo of my recent freebies:
From the top left corner we have full sized facial wipes, a necklace, InStyle magazine, Smashbox foundation sample, Garnier body lotion, "The Tools" book (which apparently could help me to change my life, aha will see will see), chewing gum to help you loose weight (i'm not really into that sort of stuff, but if its free whyt not to give it a go?), protein shake, some perfume samples and face cream samples for 14 days.
I think now i can make a competition to a coupon queens!
This is a documentary movie about a small town girl, whose dream is to become a successful model. The contrast between the "glamorous" and the real world is very strong. For the girl's parents modelling is the last hope to get some money in the family. This movie shows the real side of modelling, real tears, real pain, and the first steps towards a grown-up life.
I have officially finished my 2nd year of university guys! After the crazy night of celebration, some of my housemates had moved out, so now it is only two of us in the house. At first we were very excited- the thought of that all house is ours made us really happy, because it means that we are not going to fight for the bathroom anymore and i can finally wear my old sweatpants and huge jumper- the outfit that just can't be worn in public haha
But after couple of weeks the quietness got to us so me, my housemate and her friends decided to go to our University's annual Art exhibition where all the students who study design, fashion, photography and any other art related degree were showing their final work to everyone.
It was my second time when I've been there, last year we went to see our Spanish friends' work and i really enjoyed that. I wasn't disappointed this time either! I love the atmosphere of the Art campus, people look very stylish, friendly and busy running up and down the "Fashion corridor", looking at them makes me so inspired and creative. So anyway back to the exhibition i really liked the graphic design and illustration floor, i took a lots and lots of pictures so brace yourself people and i hope you will like them xxx
As i mentioned before i'm currently into clean eating and exercises, but it's not like i'm crazy about diets and sport, neither do i desperately want to lose weight. The reason why i decided to do it is because i want to have a nice toned body (currently my body looks like a pale marshmallow) not be ashamed of wearing very tight clothes and just feel good about myself really. I also have been feeling very exhausted during all these assignments time in uni and i didn't want to get addicted to energy drinks and coffee, that's why i started to think about changing my eating habits, but taking only a small step at the time.
The fights with my weight started when i was 12 years old. At that time i was a bit chubby but everyone tried their hardest to make me feel the fates person on earth. After all the bullying at school, hearing some offensive comments from my friends or even getting "are you really gonna eat all that?" from my family make me so angry and upset that i stopped eating for some time at all, then i started to drink teas without sugar, trying some healthy dishes without going all fuuu. And after some time i started to look slimmer, i think it was also because my body was still growing and i didn't really starve myself all time, i always have been eating sweets and i will eat sweets till the day i die, but my main point is that at that time it was easier to lose weight than now. To be honest i don't want to lose weight i just want to learn how to stop myself of eating everything tasty in the house in one day and be able to eat only at times when i'm really hungry.
So now my current favourites in food and drinks are fruit and vegetable smoothies, cream soups, whole grain cereals, oat porridge and egg omelette with tomatoes. As a snack i choose to go with nuts, rosins and bio yogurt.
My favourite smoothie recipes are:
1. 2 bananas, 1 apple, 100g of strawberries and a bit of lemon juice blended all together.
2. 50g of grapes, 100g of a different kind of berries and lettuce mix it all together and enjoy!
That's all with eating, for my workouts routine i'm doing a bit of aerobics just to worm up a bit and then i'm doing a 30 min exercise of Pop Pilates from Cassey's Youtube channel
I will put these videos here in case if you guys will want to try them out
1. For warm up
2. Pop Pilates for the whole body and a summer slimdown programme
So today i went to see my lovely pupsik Aneta and we have discussed our street part ideas for the Jubilee which will be this Sunday, and i really looking forward for it!We will go on our special Jubilee shopping to buy napkins, flags with a union jack print on them and the Queen plates. I actually need to start thinking about my outfit, but one thing i know for sure -red lipstick will be a part of it!
In conclusion of this post here are some photos of what i wore today^^
