2017 Reading Goals

I'm very, very good at setting reading goals... and I'm very, very bad at completing them. I may still have two books unfinished from my summer reading challenge. With this in mind, I've decided to keep 2017 fairly unstructured. I want to read 60 books over the course of the year (this was my plan for 2016 but I only managed 52) but I'll only pick a handful of specific books to read, so I have the freedom to choose as I go along. 

January ASOS Wishlist // 20 under £20

One of my Christmas presents was ASOS vouchers, which always go down very well! Now that the sales are fading away, I've been turning to the new stock to see what I can spend my £20 vouchers on. Erm, I may have got a bit confused when I created the image. Pretend you haven't seen the mistake.

OOTD // Alpine skirt

See this skirt? I bought it after my first trip to Salzburg in April because I knew it would be perfect for my Christmas trip. For the whole 8 months, it sat inside it's bright pink packaging behind the sofa waiting for winter. It was only when I went to put it on for the first time when we were in Austria that I realised I hadn't even thought to try it on. Luckily it fit perfectly!

Fixing my eyesight // My experience with Ortho-K lenses

Imagine this: You've spent most of your life short-sighted, wearing glasses or contacts to correct your vision. Then you try out this new technology- contact lenses that correct your vision overnight so when you take them out in the morning, you have perfect vision without the need for glasses. That's some crazy sci fi malarkey right there. Except it's not. It's real and I'm experiencing it right now. It's called Ortho-k and it's going to freaking change your life!

December Reading Wrap Up

December turned out to be a surprisingly good reading month for me. Considering I had so much going on, I was amazed to finish five books. Admittedly, three of them are tiny but that's not the point!

2017 Goals (and 2016 Reviewed)

'Tis the season for an overwhelming amount of goal posts. (That's posts about goals, not the things you have at either end of a football pitch). I happen to thrive on setting goals and failing miserably so you better buckle yourselves in for a whole week of posts dedicated to the things I definitely won't achieve in 2017.

Top Outfits of 2016

In 2015, I really struggled to write my top outfits post for the simple reason that there were hardly any to choose from. In fact, there were four entire months where I didn't post a single OOTD. This past year, however, I've made a real effort to create more fashion content and I'm so happy to be back creating the sort of posts that I started with. It's also made it a hell of a lot easier to choose my favourites!

The first three months started much the same way as the previous year, with not a single post between them. I only posted four looks between September 2015 and April 2016- Seven months and only four outfit posts! After that, however, I had a renewed drive so let's pick up this post in April.
APRIL

It was the magical Salzburg air that kickstarted my desire to create more fashion content. Everywhere was so pretty that I had no issues finding nice locations and this embroidered folk dress was perfect for running around the Alps!
