Long day....

After a heavy night out in Manchester's Gay village channeling my inner queen, just to clarify I am 100% straight I just love my friends and it's £1.50 a drink on Mondays. I awoke feeling kind of refreshed after deciding for the millionth time not to waste my thoughts on a guy, we shall see how long it lasts this time. Also with a frothy head I got up to inhale and drink my daily intake of caramel latte and my morning Greek yogurt and berries. I did a little blogging, a little shopping and caught up with some friends. This all before I gathered the courage to leave the warmth of my pug duvet and leave for the gym. The gym is kind of a daily event at the moment. Trying to get into shape for my summer holidays, travelling round Europe, it shall be a big event. Today I started on the treadmill again. Been feeling weak recently and only managed to go on the trainer ect. So today I thought I would have a go at running once again, I bossed it managed a full hour. Made me very happy to know I haven't lost my rhythm and can still run pretty well.

Unfortunately for me I had to go to work again. A silly 4 hour shift again, sometimes I wonder what the point is. However I do always enjoy work as I love the people there and have some amazing friends I work with. Was meant to be in G-A-Y again but i decided that a Chai latte was the way forward tonight. I eased the pain before getting on with my day by making a few online purchases. A simple white cami dress from Zara, justified by it being a plain go with whatever dress. Also some glasses. I felt like I needed to start to look intelligent as half the time in dozing or staring into space. A worthy buy, who knows they may encourage me to write a novel and be a literacy princess. 

Shirt- COW (Sheffield)

Jeans- Topshop Joni's 

Shoes- Topshop Astrix Boots

And finally, Today I wore. Strictly I broke the rules and ventured from the Topshop dress code, however as i'm in vintage and the customers can't purchase it elsewhere. So technically it's fine. My shirt was an absolute steal. Came from COW in Sheffield, it was in the sale so only cost me £5. It's silk and loose fitting so literally will look good over anything. Leggings, jeans, skirts over dresses. I love shirts like this, that can be worn in so many different ways as it feels like a new outfit each time. On my legs are the trusted Topshop Joni jeans, the current seasons high waisted style. They have stretch in them so are really good fits and so comfortable. A little fact of the moment, Jonis are best sellers. On my feet some hunky Boots. Topshop Astrix, they have a platform on the front and a slight heel. They too are really comfortable. There is nothing worse than being in pain during the working day.

Fringing...

With my last essay due before Easter I am taking the typical student way out and procrastinating like hell. Litarlly I am loosing the plot due to writing so much about Victorian class structure and poverty that all I want to do is headbut my computer screen into oblivion. Believe me it is only a short matter of time until i actually do. So i thought that I would break up the time before I head over to the gym to have a much needed stress relieving jog on blogging my day.

As I am only at uni I'm not overdressed but I quite like todays choice of outfit, even if it is all black, an unusual occurance unless it's a little black dress. My Jeans and jacket come from Topshop. The jeans are a pair of high wasted Jonis in black, they are not the denim ones however so they are solid black and as of yet the colour is not fading. They were also cheaper than the current collection of Joni's. I love high waisted jeans, as I dont really have a bum and hips, im have more flab on the front they are really flattering. The jacket I have to say is the one of the two gems in my wardrobe. Its a vintage style fringed suede jacket and goes with almost anything. It however was a one off find on ebay, the fool who sold it also let it go for just £12 so i definatly found a winner. Its great for summer and going out but right now its actually quite chilly to wear in the day so it doesnt get as much attention as it deserves. The top is just a basic chiffon cami from American Apparels last season, i'm borrowing it off my neighbour but the t-shitrt I had on earlier was boring.

Top- American Apperal

Jacket- Topshop via Ebay

As it was pretty sunny this morning I treated myself to a frapee from Cafe Nero, this is my new favourite coffe shop simply due to the mint frapee's and white chocolate mochas. I have always been a Starbucks girl but I fear the Italians may have for now, won my love. It's definatly the place to be getting a summer drink from as the frappee menue is huge, it ranges from lemon, to coffee, to strawberry and everything in between. What more could you possibly want from an iced drink.

Finally being a metropolitan uni girl on the all saints campus of Manchester, the only decent place to eat is the Eight Day Cafe. It offers a great range of healthy take away food. I was starving so decided to treat myself to a feta and spinich parcel and a cocunut and cherry flapjack. This came to £2.40 which considering the fact the flapjack was the size of my head, made my day. Im meant to be dieting but who cares I need my energy for all this mundane essay writing.

However I have to get to the gym now, considering that the flapjack probably contained my daily intake of calories. Until tomorrow.
