My Beautiful Boy

I love this dog a ridiculous amount. He wakes me up most days and cuddles me every night. I literally could not live without him. We got him two years ago and he looked like this...

Since then he has made me laugh, cheered me up when i'm sad and sometimes been really annoying. He is the most affectionate dog I have ever come across and insists on hugs and cuddles 24/7. I could not live without him! He is like a huge teddy bear with fluffy, velvet soft fur and little tan eyebrows, mouth and paws. Anyone who is a dog lover will understand my love for him. Maybe one day I'll be a crazy dog lady with 10 puppies...

Trade Show

I don't know if I've mentioned it before but i study International Fashion Marketing at university which is mainly a business based degree but occasionally has interesting tasks such as this trade fair... We were assigned groups and given a retailer to focus our project on. My group was given All Saints. We then had to take this brand and create an innovative idea to expand the brand. We decided to create a sub brand called Little Saints which is clothing targeted at children. We had to design a range, give marketing ideas, decide on where would source the garments and all other aspects of creating and marketing the 'new' brand. It was so much fun and my group was really focussed and had great ideas! The final part of the assessment was to carry out a trade fair we we put forward all of our ideas with other extras such as decorations, business cards, goodie bags, music etc. It was a great day and interesting to see everyone else's ideas and work. The good news is.... We got a first! It was a success and our ideas were really appreciated! I wish every assessment was this much fun! Now to start revising for my exams :(

I have soo much hair and usually get compliments about how long and thick it is.. but I usually have no idea what to do with it to make it look nice. My new favourite is a little bun on the top of my head.. a cross between cool and ridiculous. The fluffy crop jumper returns once again. People probably think I don't own anything else but I promise I do, it just goes well with a lot of things. The white shirt is a linen/cotton material and although it creases REALLY easily it it's comfy and simple and such a bargain at £7.99! I wear disco leggings/pants a lot because I got bored of normal leggings that go baggy at the knees and think they make outfits look a bit different. American Apparel started the trend but at a whopping £35 a mere £4.99off eBay for practically the same product is a steal! My new FAVOURITE shoes are this pair of Topshop slip ons. Wanted some for a while and then my mum bought me a pair for my birthday. They killed my feet at first but now they are the comfiest things I own! They pretty much go with anything and the snakeskin effect makes them a bit nicer than just plain leather. For £20 (£18 with student discount) I think they are also ANOTHER bargain! Next time I will post about something other than my fluffy cropped jumper and boring black and white...
