SUNDAY SNAPSHOT. Urban Outfitters top, H&M shorts.

A busy weekend of Ebaying, cleaning, and sorting my blog
equates to scruffy hair and a less-than-practical outfit apparently.

And now for some shameless plugging. After another bout of sorting, snapping, and uploading, I'm having a mass wardrobe clearout, so if you're in the mood for a bargain, head over to my ebay shop :)

Hope you've all had a lovely weekend. What did you get up to? I'm DETERMINED my next weekend will be a quiet, relaxed one. Phewwwww.

Nouvelle Annee!

Bonjour, and welcome to 2012!

If you're anything like me, you're already knee-deep in dreams for how this next year will be. But a fresh start must start realistically. Throw away those unachievable resolutions, and overestimated goals, and start with the simples: a healthy balance of a nutritional diet and guilt-free treats, regular exercise and lazy days (we need these for our wellbeing too!), and of course, a lovely mix of the people and things that you love. 
All of these things together make for the happiest and healthiest you that you can be.



Here are some of mine:

TRAIN MORE. TRAIN HARDER.

Pure and simple. My work schedule hasn't been the greatest thing
for my exercise routine, so I'm gonna get back into it, regardless of weather, times, plans.
Fit it in. Stop making excuses.

CLEAN OUT MY CLOSET

Get rid of the junk, and get me some serious DREAM PIECES.
Expect a mass ebay auction, or ten.

HONE MY SKILLS

Write, write, and write some more.
And then when that's done, write again.

KEEP DREAMING

One great thing I've learnt this year is to never give up on your dreams.
This will be the year I work harder than ever to make mine happen.

MAKE THE MOST OF MY LOVED ONES

Spend more time with those who make me happiest,
and less with those who don't. End of.

What has the last year taught you? Anyone made any life-changing decisions, or aiming to change anything in your life this year? I'd love to hear your stories.

Wishing you the very best of luck in 2012.

Neat things

Okay, so Im an absolute freak about arranging things; desks, drawers, cupboards. When I was at school, I would even have to have my pens and pencils arranged in neat arrangements on my school desk. So I thought I'd share with you all some of my favourite little spaces (mine and otherwise).

My wardrobe - sharing with my boy means my little wardrobe space is compact and simple.
Sectioned into garment type and style. Not my best work.

Hanging wardrobe sections make my entire life miles easier.  Tights, Belts,  Skirts, Vests.
All neatly arranged in their own lovely little square

Bountiful Books: the perfect example of organisation in small spaces.
Your past in books displayed for all to see. Beautiful.

Dressing tables of dreams = rows of rouge and layers of liner.  'mazin.

Sweetie Jar, Cookie tins and piles of antiques crockery.
The minute I move into my own place, I'm filling my kitchen with this and more.

A girls dream, organised in row upon row of colour-coordinated foot heaven.
 

And of course, there's this one. Nevermind the mess - this ones purely for aspirations purposes.
Thank you Miss Bradshaw.
