MY FAVOURITE QUOTES


Grab the sick buckets, it's about to get cringey. Nahhh, I'm hoping this isn't actually too much of a vom fest. I'm not really the overly emosh sort, but I do love these life quotes.. My phone gallery is forever full of screenshots with little sayings like this that I think are relevant. Just don't expect anything about love, how life is a journey or stuff along the YOLO lines.

 'You'll never look like the girl in the magazine, the girl in the magazine doesn't even look like the girl in the magazine'
I've shared this one on Twitter before (I think this was actually some daft quote from a reality TV show?!) as I do think it goes well with the particularly image focused blogging world. It's not just pressure to look like that Vogue cover gal these days, it's that crazy beautiful girl on Instagram or that blogger with a VS Angel like body. Whoever it is though, it's easy to compare.. Even when you know filters, good lighting & a good bit of photoshop can all play a part.

 'Blowing out someone else's candle won't make yours shine brighter'
Another favourite. I just don't get folk that feel good about peeing on someone else's parade. There's just no fun in being a Debbie downer, nor does it improve your situation. I dunno, I guess I'd like to think most people feel the same way. 

 'Your only limit is you'
This kind of summarises myself when I'm not pushing myself to be a 'yes' girl. I can easily talk myself out of things through being a total wimp. These days I try to not limit myself through being a scaredy cat, even if it means pushing myself out of my comfort zone completely.

'The things you take for granted someone else is praying for'
Eeeesh now we're getting a bit deep. This is my favourite for a reality check though. Yeah, we all moan about spots and putting on a bit of chub, but I do have to remind myself that there are bigger problems other than having a shit eyebrow day.

So they're the ones that I feel like I can relate to (without being embarrassed about being too much of a cringeville person). Let me know if you've got any favourites in the comments.. Always keen to add to my list of relevant life quotes!

corset & knit midi skirt

Choker - DIY, Coat - c/o SheInside , Corset Thingymabobby - John Lewis, Belt - Primark, Skirt - Primark, Boots - Dr. Martens I’m guessing you’ll have realised these pictures aren’t from today. Oh my days it is snowy up North. My area has got well over a foot of the stuff so I thought you’d let me off with trekking out to take blog pictures! Today I’ve been for a walk with my mamma in the woods so I did get chance to take a few pictures while we had a wander. My outfit basically consisted of lots of layers & wellies.. not exactly on trend! If anyone does want a nosey at the outfits I don't get chance to post on here then there’ll be plenty of pictures on my Instagram (fashioninflux). The little corset thingymabobby I’m wearing is actually what I wore under my dress for prom. Depressingly, that was over 5 years ago now.. when did I get so old?! I’m definitely going to be wearing under some form of sheer shirt when the summer finally arrives. Having a...

lace flares & cropped jumper

Image
Hat - River Island, Jumper - River Island, Belt - Primark, Lace Flares - H&M, Boots - c/o Missguided , Bag - c/o La Moda What does everyone think of the landscape pictures? I included a few today as sometimes I feel like you can’t really see the whole outfit. And the scenery was quite pretty. These pictures were taken a few days ago and my garden is now covered in much more snow. It looks lovely, but golly it’s a pain! I’m not keen on falling over or skidding in my car! I had to get my lace flares out after seeing Lucy look mega gorgeous in hers. I’m really sick of wearing tights and leggings so they make a nice change. They’re very see through so I’ve got a really thick pair of tights on underneath. I think I could have been wearing them in my first year at big school but they’ll do! The jumper I’m wearing has been worn to death since I got it for my birthday. It’s one of those things you can throw on over everything and feel cosy but still l...

slogan tee & cherry disco pants

Hat - River Island, T-Shirt - c/o Studded Petals , Belt - Primark, Disco Pants - c/o Glamorous , Boots - c/o Missguided I’ve been wanting to show you all this tee since it arrived. What do you think of the slogan?! I love it.. Such fun! Excuse the Miranda reference.. ‘such fun’ has now become part of my lingo. Ha. This is the closest I’ll be getting to anything Chanel related for a long time, which is fine by me.. it’s cute as a button. Fingers crossed though for one day earning enough mega bucks to end up flouncing around with a quilted 2.55 baby. Day dreaming yet again. Hopefully, you’re not all going to be turned off by a disco pants outfit. I know they’ve been overdone, but I’ve never really been the sort of person to be put off by something like that. If I like a trend or piece of clothing, I’ll still be wearing it even when everyone & their grandma’s has it. It’s more how you wear it I think. Annoyingly, I wore the t-shirt down after I’d take...
