Hello my lovelies! Hope you've all had a good start to 2011! So far my year has been uneventful, and I've spent the last few days wrapped up in the most shapeless, chunky jumpers you can imagine, no make-up, ugly hair, the works - so I thought I'd dress myself up a little bit to get out of this slump!
I look a little bit strange and I realise it's not the most flattering angle, but c'est la vie! I don't look like a model and never will and I will just have to come to terms with that, eventually! Today started off so lovely and sunny that I really wanted to do an outfit post, but as soon as we got out there it started clouding over and it was really cold as well, so it was a bit rushed. Anyway, I am wearing all items that have featured on here before: the New Look polka dress under my favourite H&M skirt, with new red tights I got from Santa! I've also got H&M short leggings on under the skirt that you can see better in the photo below:
Like I said, it was freezing! I'm also wearing my adorable panda hat that I love and treasure (thank you Jon!). I don't know that animal hats have really caught on in Luxembourg, I got a few funny looks when I wore it at the Christmas market, but at least it made it easy for my friends to find me, and kept my ears nice and snug as well!
In this picture you can just about make out the lovely necklace I received from Stephie for Christmas, it has such a pretty striped bow on it and a little Eiffel Tower charm as well!
Sorry this is such a rubbish outfit post, like I said, it was very cold and sadly we don't have any suitable backgrounds inside the house for outfit photos (I also prefer taking them outdoors, I find other people's outdoor outfit photos very pretty!). I'm missing the rest of my wardrobe back at uni, but having only a few items to work with means that I'm mixing stuff up a bit more, I suppose it's a good thing!
Moving on...I don't usually make New Year's resolutions, so I shall just carry on doing things I decided to do last year. These are as follows:
*I will try to eat more healthily and do more exercise (I am horribly unfit!)
*I will try to be more daring with my outfits (hence the blogposts, because they keep me motivated, in a way!)
*I will try to continue to embrace my natural hair (poofy and curly) and take better care of my skin (enough with the teenage spots already, I'm nearly 23!)
How about you, have you made any resolutions (New Year's or otherwise)?
xoxo

oh wow you look super cute
ReplyDeleteMy boyfriend is the opposite, he bought me a fluffy cat hat which I really like but I still feel embarrassed wearing it anywhere people can see me xD The panda hat totally rocks though. I didn't really decide on any resolutions..although the things I ve been trying to motivate myself to do are regular jogging (still manage to put it off by being unable to find proper trainers in japan..) getting a grip on my Japanese and spending more time doing art. Sigh it really is time for more doing and less wanting ;)
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your resolutions, may the force be with you!
