A little sorry. ( сожалею )

Здравствуйте or Hello. This is just a little post to say sorry for not putting a post up on Saturday.  The reason for this failure is because I was in Russia. I went for six days and theat days were full of excitement and adventure so I really did not have time to even upload a pretty written post because when I got back to the hotel I would talk for hours with my friends then fall asleep. It's not a particularly good excuse but I really wanted to delve into the different culture so I mostly stayed away from social media.

I have never experienced a place like St Petersburg but I probably never will again. I still can't quite believe that I did all so many things! Its been one of my favourite discoverys. Adventure is definitely the key word in this post apart from sorry! 

What has been been your favourite adventure? 

Light and Bright in autumn.

So the days are getting shorter, its dark when I wake up and its dark when I come home at night on some days. Therefore it feel like to snuggle up in pjs and in the day time i'm wearing layers to keep warm but I've found they tend to be dark layers. But why? I can understand wearing autumnal colours like greens and reds to match the leaves but wearing black is miserable. I brought this light blue jumper from New Look during the summer because i loved the pretty colour but it was just too warm to wear so it got put in my draws (with the label. I know its bad.)

It wasn't until a friend said "Bridge, you're wearing a lot of black at the moment" They were right, so I'm trying to mix it up. Im so restless when it comes to clothes. Depending who i'm going to be see a lot of or where I will be which is understandable but I can get so incredibly fed up. Anyway I hope this light blue jumper gets me loving the bright and light colour because fashion isn't supposed to be safe because as it has been said; "Florals for spring. Ground breaking" (anyone get that reference?). 

Lets just do what we want and not just be the same every year, but I'm not saying that I'm cutting out black because I doubt that is going to happen.

Adore me. Feeling sexy all year round.

*Blushes*

So here we go. I'm going to use the word 'sexy' on my blog for the first time, because I was asked to join in the flatlay project by Adore Me, If you are unaware of Adore Me is then listen up; It is an online flexible monthly membership where you can have beautiful lingerie, exercise clothes and lounge wear delivered straight to your door.  I have to say I'm not used to talking about my underwear in such a open environment, but Ill be honest, underwear shopping is my favourite kind of shopping, so I'll put my big girl pants on (excuse the pun) and get on with it.

 I was asked to talk about my favourite piece and here it is. Adore me really cares about you feeling sexy no matter what size or shape you are which is a fantstic message to send because being in underwear can make you feel extremely vulnerable. I think we can all relate to a time where we thought "oh, I really wish my_______was bigger/smaller", but the truth is there is no perfect body so we shouldn't be trying the strive for something else when we can all look sexy just the way we are.

I have only recently gained body confidence and it was mostly achieved my changing my mind set however a little trick I use is that I wear matching underwear everyday. My friends laugh at me for doing this, but when I've got my lovely matching underwear on I can take on the world, because I look great for me. I'm not relying on compliments of others, so I can always feel sexy even on cold autumn days when its dark and miserable. I wrap up warm in dark colours (mainly jeans) but underneath I have underwear that is gorgeous, comfy and a bit flirty . 

How do you get body confident?

Adore Me

A different asethetic.

Oh my goodness, I am the worst. I'll start with the excuses blah blah blah. Life has been so busy in the last few months and I've had no routine which is a big factor in how motivated I am plus my motivation was completely destroyed due to some personal issues as well. To sum it up i had no routine and I have recently started year 13 at school so I've got a routine back but it's been busy. But I've recently realised that life is always busy so I just have to get back on the horse so to speak.

So okay, with that over I can get into this post properly. Since getting my new Doc Martens I have changed my style slightly. Instead of going for classic shapes and colour I have been branching out into a slightly 90s look. Not really sure it is but that's people have been calling it. It may be because I need to wear comfy but stylish clothes for school or maybe because we are getting into autumn so I can wear darker colours. Autumn is my absolutely favourite season because I can cover up and not be over warm. 

But I try hard not to follow the mainstream trends religiously because I don't want to look like every other person because I use to clothes to show who I am, so there is no point trying to look like some other girl who doesn't know how I feel because then how are people going to know the real me. I apologise for the wishy washy whatever ness of that but to be honest it's how I feel. 

This outfit is something I've been wearing recently; the black polo neck is lovely and simple and doesn't take away from the beautiful embroidered flower pattern on the primary skirt. One of my dear friends also has this skirt so we did the mandatory cute matching photo. I know couple goals or what?  Anyway I bought these knee high black socks from Amazon to make the outfit slightly quirky. I've only done this because I've recently come across some self confidence therefore I've been able to be more myself and not care what certain people are thinking. I've had truely awful self esteem for all my teenage years but I've been working on it so hopefully it means I can really express myself without anxiety kicking in. 

What are you looking forward to wearing during autumn?
