Party Dresses

Season of the party dresses is already in full swing, and this year there are a load of different styles to choose from. Granted, some of the styles from Topshop are not my thing (I know. Shock horror!), I went shopping there and saw some nice things. That will come in another post.

 

All from Topshop.

 

I have found all these online that I really love in one way or another. I wouldn't wear some of them but only because they would definitely not suit my body shape. You'd have to really brave the cold against your stomach in that mint green number! And, the red and gold dresses are definitely for those girls who are the stars of the show!

 

In life news, I have been ill all week, but I am on the mend just in time for Christmas! I was supposed to go out tonight with my friends but obviously now that can't happen. Hopefully, I'll be able to go to Spoons tomorrow with some friends for a good ole' catch up! Then, again on Monday for a catch up with more friends, and then it's Christmas Day!

 

I did my Christmas wrapping yesterday which was really fun. I love wrapping presents!

 

I've started thinking about my birthday and summer plans too. I know that it is a very long way off, but I'm really excited!

 



Going Home.

I have not blogged in a long time. I have no excuse really because I'm not mega busy or anything. I've become a fan of Pinterest recently to put a load of different inspiration up, mainly to do with 'Ink' which I am loving at the moment.

 

Technically, as seen as it's after midnight, I go home tomorrow night! I am beyond excited and cannot wait!! I just want to have a full English and a hot Ribena on the couch, in front of the telly, in the evening. That will be happening on Friday among seeing the family!

 

I want to do so much whilst at home for the short three weeks I'm there, so I've made a list, but with proper SG style, here's an inspiration board.

 

 

L-R: Catching up with friends like the crazy people that we are; Making 21st birthday plans (way in advance!); Putting the Christmas tree up (parents have waited for me to come home :)); Eating a massive Xmas dinner; Spending quality time with my family (miss them); Reading loads; Writing what I want to write, not what a university wants me to; Eating a full English; Eating out at an Indian restaurant; Going out with the girls; Getting my hair restyled (I'm liking this - long layers); NYE; Seeing Breaking Dawn (it is at the top of my list!); Going to a panto with family; Being addicted as ever to tattoos.

 

This is what my diary of the next three weeks will look like, plus other things as plans are made and people come home for Christmas. It looks like I'm about to put on many pounds from all the food I plan to eat! It's a good job I've already thought about exercise for next year (including Zumba!).

 

I cannot wait to be in the comfiest bed in the world, and have the best sleep ever after getting home early hours of Friday morning!

 

I'll be blogging more over the Christmas period, and I've planned a couple of Xmas HerUni posts too so look out for them.

 

 



Moulin Rouge

Tomorrow night, there is a Moulin Rouge party at Teatro Circo club in Murcia. It is a themed night (obviously) and takes me back to the days when I used to dress up every Friday for BOP in first year. I don't tend to dress up anymore, but I will next year, as it is my final year *sob*.

 

I have never dressed up as a character from Moulin Rouge before, and I don't plan on dressing up loads like the characters in the film because I don't want to walk around the streets of Spain half naked with random men leering. I think I'm going to opt for the classic LBD, crazy coloured heels, and add a feather boa, and clip on hat (the last two I will have to find and buy tomorrow in the short free hours I have during the day).

 

I have created an inspiration board - it seems the blog is full of them this month - for Moulin Rouge.

 

 

I think the theme of Moulin Rouge is a fantastic idea for a birthday theme also (or any kind of party if you feel like dressing up).

 

I love the film too! It always makes me cry at the end. I might watch it in bed tonight before my early start tomorrow. I can get into the spirit of the theme even though I am already really excited to have another night out!

 

October In Spain

I have just done a bit of research about the goings on of Spain in October. There are many film festivals throughout the country, especially in Madrid, Barcelona & Marbella. Of course, there is also Bullfighting which goes on throughout the year.

 

 

For me, I won't be going to any of these things (this month at least). I've tried to be good, and say no to going out as much and spending a lot of money. So far, I've been doing okay, but as the plans for nights out keep coming in, my purse is hating me, but I'm loving life.

 

 

(L-R) Cocktails for 1euro on Friday night at BadulaKe bar; Sightseeing in Murcia; Getting dressed up; Moulin Rouge Party at Teatro Circo; Hangover McDonald's; Work Hard Play Hard mantra, Moulin Rouge inspiration; I love to party; Reading; Studying hard; Writing SG posts & articles; Shopping at Nueva Condimina; Halloween costume inspiration; Throwing a Halloween party; Halloween mantra to having the best Halloween ever!

 

So, in a nutshell, that they are the plans for October so far! I am excited for tomorrow night, and the rest of the nights out with my new friends in Spain to come! It is already the 4th, so I bet this month will fly by like the last! I can't believe I have already been in Spain for a whole month, granted on my own, without Mum & Dad, for just under a month. They are both visiting at the end of next month for six days which is very exciting! I shouldn't wish my life away, because I am having an amazing time out here, but it's always nice to have something to look forward to!

 

 

 



Inspired: May

This blog is my little inspiration diary, and I have left it for weeks! I need to keep it up, especially whilst I'm in Spain (which is in four months time!!) so I can keep all my inspirations and memories from there on this little piece of internet.

As we are on the 8th May already, I feel it's time to post some inspiration images like I do every month! it's my birthday in four days, so there will be balloons and party dresses in spring time.

Enjoy!

It's my birthday in four days, so I've made a special Birthday Mood Board for all you May birthday's out there (and everyone else too).

To add to this inspiration filled post, I've found an image that just sums up the fact that no matter who you are, whatever you've lost, whatever has happened to you in life, you can still head out to acheive your wildest dreams.
