The Spontaneous Nights Are The Best

I do enjoy a good spontaneous night out. Last night ones of these. Me and my friend JS and her friend that was visiting from home AS decided to go to a little pub down the road called 'The Cask', we knew it was open mic night there and a few people we know are regular performers. I took it as a very casual night and simple wore jeans, a baggy jumper, converse and had my hair up. I also vowed that i was not going to drink because of the 9am lecture i had the next morning. Yeah, that went a little bit to pot! Got there and the first thing i did was order a cider and black! 3 of them and 2 double archers later i could no longer deny that i was drunk. Yet the casual night turned out to be lovely. We all laughed so much and made friends with loads of new people (even if the friendships were made because of arguments over Ed Sheeran). Then from 'The Cask' it was on to 'Bacchus', our amazing local, where we danced and danced and danced until the lights came up. Then crawled into bed to get up at 8am and do it all over again :)

Dress Up Times

In my house we love a good themed night where it gives us the chance to go all out and look a little bit like idiots. For this occasion it was my friend FH's birthday with the theme of favourite flora and fauna. So, not doing this half arsed, i went as a lion.

That is me as a lion ^. Pretty good i think! Now for a run down of the outfit...

• Hair - Backcombed to within an inch of its life - not fun to comb out the next day
• Face - Yellow face paint that lasts forever and is only £3 and a good friend (JS) who is very creative and will willingly do all my makeup :)
• T-shirt - Bought from a charity shop for £1.75. Is a size 16/18 but when tucked into a skirt it doesn't really matter
• Skirt - Bought as a present from my friend RK for my birthday
• Tights - Borrowed off FH. I later destroyed said tights and they are now in the bin

On the whole i think a good outfit for very little money. A little imagination is all that is needed.

Fashion Timesssss

I came to a bit of a block with what to write about in this blog. Not much has been happening recently that would be of much interest so i thought about doing a bit of fashion. I'm not completely up to date with latest trends and that but, as my sister has told me before, I'm not too bad at doing the student wardrobe thing and making something out of nothing. So here goes...

Saturday Night Out
As i do every Saturday i went out to the local bar called Bacchus, don't tend to venture in to town on a weekend because its a bit rough. Bacchus is an underground bar that looks a little like an old ladies front room, but it is possibly the friendliest place anyone could go.

This is what i wore ^^. The clothes i am actually wearing are not mine. I am quite fortunate that all my closest friends that i live with are the same or similar size to me so we do a lot of sharing. This play suit is from my neighbour JS which she kindly lent me. After going out every night last week i began to get stuck in a rut with my clothes, i got the feeling they had all been overused and felt it time for a change, and that is where JS came in.
