CATCH UP

Since last posting, alot has happened. Education wise, I started and completed a Foundation Diploma in Art and Design at Newcastle College, selected Fashion as a specialism and finished with a Distinction. YEYYYY! This was the most challenging course I've done, way harder than A levels in my opinion and took up lots of time and effort so I was beyond shocked but so pleased when I got my final grade.

During the course I applied to 5 different universities to study Fashion Design and after receiving 4 offers and alot of deliberation I finally decided on Leeds College of Art. I loved the friendly vibe of the college, Leeds as a city is amaaaazing, and the course content really appealed to me.

Which brings me to now, I am currently living in student accommodation in Leeds after moving here 2 weeks ago. Its been a pretty hectic fortnight but I'm settling in well. My halls are nice, I've met some lovely people and I'm in love with Leeds as a place and hopefully as time goes on I'll figure out who I really click with cos if I'm honest I've only found a few so far. But everyone has said that'll come with time, and I agree. Its so hard to become instantly close with strangers in such an intense environment.

So yeah, that's you all caught up I think. Lots of other personal shit has gone down ha but that's all done now and really not worth talking about, everything happens for a reason has become my motto though for sure. I'm really looking forward to getting stuck into my course and I'm so happy to be somewhere new and exciting as opposed to being bored at home.

Anywayyyy, long catch up over, here's an outfit I wore the other day to uni, I'm really liking crazy patterned shirts at the minute. I predict buying quite a few over the next few weeks.


Shirt - Vintage 
Necklace - Primark 
Jeans - Topshop 
Shoes - River Island 
Bag - Vintage

YO

Okay so I've decided to return to blogging after a brief lengthy hiatus. Mainly because now I'm at uni, I have found myself with alot more time on my hands than normal and all the stressful stuff that stopped me blogging before e.g A levels a and foundation are now done. Also, with me starting a BA hons in Fashion Design I reckon a blog's gunna come in handy at some point and will be beneficial to my studies.
You'll have to bear with me cos blogger has changed quiteee alot since I disappeared so I'm kinda starting from scratch. I'm planning on totally changing the appearance of the blog, its veryyy dated now but that's gunna take time too. Also, I've stupidly left my camera lead at home so it'll be phone photos for a little while.
So yeah, basically just giving those few readers I have a heads up that I'm back, hopefully for good. x
