Winter Edition: Day 1> layers

Even though it's been, like, no time since I did Kayla's last challenge, but I am still super excited to take part in this one :) I can't really do every day because of revision -.- but I will try to do as many as I can!

Today's prompt is "layer it" and I have to admit it is one of my favourites as there are so many exciting ways to interpret it :) Originally I was set on wearing two shirts but I just looked fat, so I used another one of the inspiration pictures and decided to wear a shirt over a dress :) Oliver still thought it made me look chunky, but I chose to ignore him :P

See you guys later,

Say :)

Bear with, bear with...

Revision appears to be eating into all my free time at the moment, so I'm afraid that I may be a bit infrequent with my posting! But not to worry, on Monday Kayla's 10 day challenge starts! Yes, once again I'm returning to the realms of fashion blogging (it wasn't like I had a massive break, was it? :P) and I am ultra excited about it even if I may not be able to take part in every day because of exams etc.

And next Saturday my German exchange partner is coming to visit me, so I'm pretty sure you'll get to meet her too :) I just hope that she doesn't think its too mad that I'll be taking pictures with self-timer every morning!

So I'll see y'all tomorrow, same time, same place?

Say :)

Copy Cat Friday #1

 {via}

So today I'm taking part in Sarah's copycat challenge for the first time and who better to copy than the amazing and beautiful Sydney from The Daybook! So here is my interpretation of this outfit I found when I went through her archives the other day :)

I had to go blue instead of black, as I have both a blue stripy jumper and blazer :P And I'm sorry that I wore my jumper again, it's just that my amazing and beautiful boyfriend bought it (I'm doing a clothes fast and therefore can't buy clothes!) and I love it!

Seeing as I copied Sydney and I missed out on awkward and awesome Thursday, I thought I'd kinda make it  awkward and awesome Friday instead :P

Awkward:
-Getting a D on my law exam mock when I had my notes in front of me and no time constraint
-Agreeing to babysit for someone when they text me but not recognising the number and therefore not knowing who I was babysitting for
-Reaching the house I was babysitting for (I found out who it was eventually!) and not being able to find the house as I haven't been there for a while, it was dark and they had their driveway redone

Awesome:
-Finding out that there is an Outfit just down the road and that I can use my previously-thought-to-be-useless gift card from Christmas there (I can use gift cards to buy clothes as it is as if someone is buying them for me- see how I got round that? Smooth)
-Finally getting my bike lights put on so I don't risk dying on the way home from college (Cheers Oliver's mum!)
-Wagon wheels. I had forgotten how amazing you are. (And bad for me, but we can forget that)

That's all folks,

Say :)

Some new pictures of The Band :)

As I have had to do unbelievably boring really important revision this week for my law exam next Wednesday, I'm afraid posting has been a little sparse to say the least. But I thought I'd share some of my photographs of the gig last weekend :) One, because I am ridiculously proud of them :P And two, because I wanted an excuse to give you my real news...

I joined flickr!

Ok, so it is nowhere near as exciting for you guys as it is for me, and I only have about 6 pictures on there, but just you wait.. :P Add me as a contact: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sayholt/

Thanks,

Baggy jumper and playing with Lightroom

Oliver made me download Lightroom 4 beta and I have just been playing with it all day. I have kind of gone a bit OTT but hey, I'm still getting the hang of it! I look a bit miserable, but that was just because I was trying to take some serious photos! When will I accept that I can't be a model and just smile and be cute? :P

Love,

Say :)
