New In: Topshop knitted t-shirt

Knitted t-shirt & necklace both from Topshop

I realise that I've been MIA and I haven't promised to post like I said that I would.
This is changing from.... now! I feel like I've found a new lease of inspiration to write about anything that comes into my head, something I see, something I wear or do.

Anyway, more about my recent purchase! I've been holding on to my Topshop vouchers since Christmas because I've been trying to stick to my new shopping mantra: Buy pieces that fit in with at least two other outfits in my wardrobe and also 'What would Olivia Palermo do?' I saw this knitted t-shirt a few months ago and I haven't been able to forget about it. This is a true sign that I must really want it.
I've also been trying to play around with accessories more so this unusual necklace caught my eye and fit the bill.

I think I'll do a post on my new shopping mantra as I find it interesting how people shop and what goes through their heads before they buy things.

The Pay Day Wishlist

 I was over Summer a long time ago. Considering the only sun I've seen has been swiftly covered in cloud, it has left me no choice but to pack away my summer dresses and coo over Autumn goodies.

I've been on a somewhat spending ban for the past month but I have no choice but to break it to add these beauties to my wardrobe. Clearly you can tell that I'm not a fan of colour, but the rich blue and burgundy will slot in just nicely. It's pay day tomorrow and I'm planning on indulging myself in a lot of retail therapy.

The beginning of it all...

So this is me. My name's Sarah, I'm 21 and this year I graduated with a degree in English Literature.

This post marks the beginning, of what I'm hoping, is a successful future with many opportunities flying my way. In September, I'm starting a fast track course in Journalism and I've recently started an internship with an online magazine in Manchester. I finally feel like I'm getting somewhere and this blog will act as a kind of diary- recording my experiences along the way, along with the outfits that will be joining me. I don't want to commit this as a fashion blog as I'm planning on writing random features that might not be fashion related.
 I was in New York with my boyfriend when the photo above was taken. I've always been a lover of city life but being in New York made me want my dream job even more.
