A big goal update

So I was chatting we my bandmate, Furious Dee, about going to Cardiff next year to ponce around the bay pretending we are in Torchwood. We’ll probably save our pennies and go next year.

I mentioned that I’d like to be in the 13s by then. We then both agreed that by Summer next year we would lose 2 stone. It starts tomorrow. That’s our official weigh in day.

However, I’m posting the stats now before I forget.

Current weight: 214lbs (15 stone 4 lbs)

Goal weight: 186lbs (13 stone 4 lbs)

To lose: 28lbs

Wish us luck folks!

My plan for now is to eat breakfast (today it was homemade jam on toast) with a small lunch and normal dinner (tonight Nandos, fail.)

Then as soon as I can get my arse into gear, maybe this weekend, I’m going to join the gym!

£75 impulse buy shoes

You might know by now that I’m an impulse buy sort of gal. Well, I had to pick my boss’ mac up from the Apple store in Norwich. With that all done I then had to walk back to my car. I walked past River Island. Looked in the window and fell in love with some shoes.

Decided to pop in, had a bit of a look around and walked away with these beauties.

clog, boot, heel, platform, river island

I was actually torn between them and these ones, also £74.99 (pictured below) but I decided on the wood ones because they had a zip rather than being just pull on.
boots, pull on, platform, heel

Must stop spending now. <3

The Michael Kors bag

I love it for its pinkness. It’s real leather and bright! Serious new bag love. Bought it for £55 reduced from £155.

Please note hand-knitted scarf (by my Grandma) in The Darkness colours of orange and blue. Yes I wore these together.

Cashmere!

I’ve always been a big fan of cashmere, it’s soft, warm and feels expensive. I’ve recently discovered Pure Collection a company who specialise in cashmere cardigans for women.

Not only do they have a fantastic looking website, they also sell the most fantastic clothes. And the cardigans aren’t just your usual boring types, there’s a wide variety to choose from. I particularly like the Zip Front Hooded Cashmere Cardigan, it a luxurious take on a wardrobe basic.And fantastic for layering.

When winter comes around – although it feels like it’s already here – I can see it being worn over a long-sleeved dress with thick tights and boots. Maybe pop a mac over the top for ultimate warmth.

I’m a big fan of the warm and snuggly. And if it’s cashmere then extra bonus.
