Well hello there! It's been a while since my old mug has graced my blog! I never thought it would happen to me but I had a bit of an outfit post block. Let's not be silly, of course I was still wearing clothes! But I honestly couldn't find the time to set up my camera and tripod, clear this corner of my room (which has been de-moulded may I add!) and get snapping. This may have been partly due to mostly sporting PJs at the moment.
This cardigan is really a neglected piece in my wardrobe, it's one of those things that I'm not sure if I really like, it feels a bit preppy for me, but it was quite a mild day when I took these photos so it provided the perfect amount of warmth!
I'm feeling majorly rushed off my Doc wearing feet at the moment. I had been warned about the impending dooms of third year, but it's become clear that I am going to be flooded by work until approximately June next year. Yay.
Any graduates with words of wisdom or motivation, please send them my way! Nomore doom and gloom!

I'm in third year too, writing up lecture notes in my pjs right now (/massive procrastination!) I find it so hard to stay focused even though its really important!
ReplyDeleteI'm planning lots of fun stuff for the summer to motivate me, thinking of a trip to NY and Florida, Glastonbury and a holiday with my boyfriend! Lots of work now will be worth it then?

I find it hard to focus and be motivated! Ohh good idea :) xx
DeleteI'm afraid it's going to feel like the longest year of your life BUT that's what makes completing it feel so amazing!!!! Think of it as your nearly half way there....you can do it!
ReplyDeleteLovely outfit xx

I can't wait until I finish this year, but then I'll need to find a job - eeep! Thank you xx
DeleteJust to try and organise your time, so that you can define "working time" and "rest time" otherwise you'll get to feel as though it's all-consuming.
ReplyDeleteThanks Char - I wish I was more organissed with allocating time to work / rest, I'll have to give it a better go! xx
DeleteLove this outfit esp the shorts! I know what you mean about doing outfit posts, I'm behind on it too, it's either raining or too dark in the house! x
ReplyDeleteYes! It's such a pain isn't it! xx
DeleteLove that fur vest!

I am loving the fur! xo
ReplyDeleteLove that gilet, you look beauts xo
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Olivia :) xx
Deletelovely outfit! there were so many times during third year when i was convinced i would just collapse under all the stress. i don't really have any words of wisdom, other than if i - the laziest girl in the world - can do it, then you can too! good luck! x
ReplyDeleteI'm quite lazy too haha! Thanks for the words of wisdom :) xx
Deletethis is such a cool outfit, I'm desperate for some levi shorts and a fur stole too!:)xx
ReplyDeleteMy word of wisdom? PRO PLUS. Got me through many a night in the library!
ReplyDeleteBoring shiz out of the way I LOVE this, the colours look gorgeous on you and I kinda want to cut off your hair and have it for myself. Too creepy?
xx
I've got some to hand so I may take that advice haha ;) shall we swap hair? Yes? Please? xx
DeleteI remember 3rd year being an absolute stinker! My biggest tip is to set a cut off in the evenings where you don't work anymore - me and my boyfriend had a cut-off at 9pm and after that wouldn't do anymore work and would do what we wanted to do. I think it helps for your sanity! Failing that, lots of wine x
ReplyDeleteMy cut off is far too early at the moment haha! I think it's because it's so dark it feels a lot later. The wine sounds good.. haha! xx
DeleteThis outfit is lovely, I'm in love with your shorts :-) They're definitely one of the better DIY Levi cut offs I've seen ! Oh god I'm only in my final year of sixth form and feel swamped with work, I dread to think what uni will be like.. xo
ReplyDeleteah thank you :) I remember sixth form! They do try to ease you into uni work so don't panic too much! xx
DeleteSuch a cute fur stole! And I adore your stressed denim shorts... Great cozy, winter look!!

I'm so envious - your Doc Marts are so gorgeous! Lovely outfit, dear. It certainly does not seem like you were in an outfit post block. You have such an amazing sense of style and I'm obsessed with your lovely blog. I have followed you! (:
ReplyDeleteThere's a new post up on my blog and I'd love to hear your thoughts on it so feel free to drop by anytime. Have a great weekend!

Thanks Fatima! I'll check out your blog, no problem :) xx
DeleteOne of best things I learnt from third year is not leaving everything till the last month. Organising your schedule and revision time is crucial. Also revising with other people on your course if you can is so beneficial. It really helped me going through stuff with others. Builds up confidence in your abilities.
ReplyDeleteLove the fur stole!
Lola xx
Yeah I did that a lot in first year! This year I only have one exam in the summer, so I'll give group revision a go then :) xx
DeleteI really like the cardigan! Good luck with third year- the only advice I really have is try to stay as organised as possible but ultimately enjoy it as much as possible- I remember thinking third year was so much work and then had a serious shock when I graduated and realised working 45+ hour weeks are a hell of a lot tougher! I'd give anything to go back now- so jealous! xx
ReplyDeleteAh thanks Emily - yeah I'm a little anxious about going into the world of work! xx
Deletegorgeous look! i love the burgundy colour in combination with the denim! very nice!

OOOh love this outfit so much, great style! and oh my god, tell me about it! Im in third year too and it is horrific! Literally spend my life in the library, this year is going to suck! The only thing that is getting me through is knowing that people do it every year and survive! ha! Thanks for following my blog, following too :) xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Abi! Sucks doesn't it hah! Yeah - I know I'll do it but it's just so difficult! xx
