Fashion Influx turns TWO!

Top - Topshop, Rings - Pandora, Choker - Ebay, Bangle - Pandora
Lippy - MAC Must Be Red
Mega Tasty Cake - c/o My Mumma and Marks&Sparks.. ha!

So, Fashion Influx has reached the two year milestone! Ahhh where does time go?! Now, this post may be a little naff, but I think it's nice to celebrate these things. My blog has done me the world of good, and for that, I think a little cake is deserved. When I told my ma that I'd been blogging two years this week, she tripped off to Marks' & fetched me this yummy treat and the number 2 candle. Forever thankful for having such a cute mamma.

My blogging year has been beyond anything I could have ever expected. I am incredibly proud of the work I've put into my blog and what it has lead to.. I'm not one to brag, but occasionally you do need to tell yourself 'well done girl!'. Fashion Influx won Highly Commended Best New Fashion Blog at the bloody Cosmo Awards.. who'da thought it?! Another highlight of the year (& my life) was getting to go to New York with their best bud (mamma bear deserved that trip for all her bloggy support!) thanks to Boohoo. Just a few weeks before I found out, we sat talking about how we weren't sure if we'd ever get to go to our dream city. It just shows you, if you put in the work, amazing things do happen. 

I'm not sure where blogging will take me next, but even if it reverted back to just me & my nanna reading it, I would still be forever grateful for the two years I've had. Big thank you & lots of love for all your support over these two years, you've made my life a whole lot better! xo

P.S.. I know I'm totally going on here but expect a few changes on the blog, what better way to start another year of blogging?!

lace flares & cropped jumper

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...

PERSONAL SHOPPING AT TOPSHOP | PARTY OUTFIT IDEAS

Image
Party season is the moooost wonderful time of the year, so when Topshop invited me in to check out their personal shopping service I was more than excited. As much as I love getting dolled up, I find the whole process of outfit hunting stressful – I’m pretty particular, so it usually takes me forever! Not only that, but I got to try the personal shopper experience in Topshop at Meadowhall… I love anything that’s blogging related and local! It’s nice to know that the rest of the country hasn’t been forgotten about, and we can all have an extra special shopping treat. I’ve been to a couple of personal shopping events before, and the team at Topshop didn’t disappoint! I was greeted with some dream boat outfits that the lovely Kirby, my personal stylist, had picked out for me. She found me so many pieces that were just my sort of thing! That’s all part of the service - you just give them a call, let them know what you’re after, tell them your size and they’ll do all the faffy...
