Back to uni / what do you need to take to uni?

In September I will be going into my second year of university.
Below are a few things I've purchased for when I go back! p.s please note I am a stationary geek!!


Here are all my new purchases and will go into detail, these are just a few refresh purchases such as stationary etc.
There is also new bedding, mug, boxes, revision cards and a holder, weekly planner and some lunch boxes.

This is a weekly planner from Paperchase, includes space to write under every day with a notes section that you can tear off at the end of every week. Even though I have a 2014 diary, this will be a useful to do list, details of when I'm working and what university work I have to do!


These are some cute storage boxes for uni to store stationary, make up and other bits and bobs and bits of clutter I seem to come across whist at uni. I also love the cute colourful lids, they are from wilkinsons.


Look at these! Cute lunch boxes!! The one on the right is for my sandwich only, it keeps it fresh without me having to wrap it up in foil or cling film which will also stop it from becoming squished! And then on the left is another lunch box to put the rest of my lunch in to keep it separate from my sandwich. I also bought them because they were pink, from asda!


Other items you will need are bedding, duvet, pillows, washing basket, bath mat, towels, plates, bowls, cutlery, cooking utensils, pots and pans, food, washing up stuff, bathroom toiletries, stationary, laptop, speakers, music and more! My mind has gone blank haha but if I think of anything else I will add!

Love new uniform time at work!


So I may have mentioned I work in River Island and we have just had our new uniform period! I love it, I want to get excited about the clothes and wear something a bit different and try out new things and not just get a top and some jeans for the sake of it!

After trying on several items I came across this outfit..


Now in the picture is a pair of some dark navy Molly Jeggings. They are the comfiest jeans I have ever worn and every pair I have had last really well and I still wear them! They're fabulous, so soft and comfortable and compliment every fit!

Next up I teamed a champagne grey colour racer back cami top with a crop ribbed top underneath!
I wanted to experiment and doubling up a ribbed top underneath a top/dress is a new style statement this season. 
I think it adds such a lovely look to the outfit and jazzes it up abit rather than just a cami and some denim!

I have had so many compliments and I hope by wearing it at work other people will take notice and encourage others to try out this look too. 

In River Island there is a leather look dress (very similar to this top) and you could team that up with a grey ribbed top underneath too. 2 outfits in one, wear the dress on its own and with a ribbed top enabling you to wear it differently day and night!

With my work outfit I also thought a silver statement necklace would complete the look. This is my favourite outfit at the minute it looks lovely on, believe me!
