OOTN ; Valentines, Ripped Jeans and House of Holland

Jeans + Golly Gosh Jacket: House of Holland | Shoes : River Island | Tinsel Top: H&M

Honestly, Valentines Day seems a million years ago now- since then we have a little bunny in our home named Buster who is 9 weeks old, a mini lop and a massive handful! Ive just spent the last half an hour trying to get him back into his cage.. we want him to be a house bunny but I think hes got a little too much freedom for such a tiny baby (he is staring at me sulkily as I write this.)

For Valentines Day me and Chase went to a restaurant called The Cosy Club in Leicester. Its interior is very vintage/tea rooms/pinterest and I LOVE it! We've eaten there before but this time it was nice to go for a 3 course meal and spend some time talking. away from all the distractions of every day life and social media. 

We're still testing out different settings with my camera, which to be honest would come out alot better if we researched and came off of the auto buttons, but for these photos when time was precious and indoor lighting and focusing was hard, hopefully they'll do! 

I got these jeans and this jacket (which is actually a dress) from the 'House of Holland' sample sale I went to in June, I love them and have been waiting for a time to style them up and dress them. I always thinks perfect clothes need to have the best first outfit ensemble, and then I can wear them day in day out wherever/however! I wore them with these River Island heels which I bought back when I was on my placement year at uni and have never got around to wearing! On a night out I'm a flats kinda gal and I cant drive and walk EVERYWHERE which rules out every day heels, but once I can drive they'll be on my feet alot more ^.^ (obviously not whilst im driving.. I'm definetely not that good ;))

 Over the past few days its been nice to escape back home and take some time to see familiar faces and feel that kind of simple happiness I find easiest to find when here.
Me and my sister Gemma went up to Rutland Water today and took some photos, it was nice to be able to experiment more with my camera as since getting it for Christmas I've felt limited in taking a variety of photos and playing around with all the settings. Although I didn't really do much else with it today it was still nice to walk around with it and pretend I was some kind of awesome photographer..
I'm going back to Coventry tomorrow for a week full of exhibitions/sketchbooks and portfolios and after coming home I feel happy to go back; its always nice to escape for a little bit but I think I'll forever be someone who likes to keep moving forward and I'm excited for London on Tuesday with Angie ^.^

Being Happy.

Two days into my design placement and i'm now in bed with a cold/flu; some weeks really do not go to plan..
I uploaded all the photos I took over Christmas onto my computer and it made me feel slightly homesick, I always find getting back into the routine of 'uni life' hard, especially the part of living away from the people and places I love, but for these final 6 months of Uni I really feel determined to push myself to enjoy all the things that this time next year I'll be missing.
I find myself focusing a lot on the places I'd rather be, the people I wish I could see and the lives that I can't help but be envious of whether their my friends or internet celebrities.. some days its easy to want to emmerse yourself in anyone's life but your own.
I hadn't made any new years resolutions so far for this year (except to learn all the words to Paul Simon- You can call me Al.) But from my (sick)bed I want to try and make 2015 a year of appreciating everything and everyone I do have and making more of an effort with them. Whether that mean's prying myself away from netflix so I talk to my friends or finding the positives in my life rather than the negatives, I really just want to see my world as something that's just as good as everyone else's, if not better because its mine and I have so many amazing things in it.
