The Outfit
Jacket, Jeans & Boots – Zara // Jumper – Next // Bag – Karl Lagerfeld
Of course, when I saw this jacket in Zara I knew it gave me an instant ‘Chanel’ vibe and I absolutely had to have it. The white tweed material with a slight metallic thread gives it that touch and makes it look that bit more expensive. This jacket cost around £59.99 but its totally worth the money as its an extra special outerwear piece that you can wear with so many different outfits. I was lucky enough to have a voucher for £50.00 left over when I went to purchase it so it technically only really cost me £10.00, as long as you think like me.
It’s finally down to the my last week in work before the Christmas holidays, officially three days left once this post goes live. I am so excited to be off over Christmas this year. Firstly its my fiancè, Nick’s Birthday on the 23rd December, then of course Christmas day the 25th and then on the 30th its my mums birthday, so Christmas is always a busy one with us [and an expensive one!].
I have had fun these past few weeks getting winter blog shoots done with Nick who plays part-time photographer for me but its also been stressful too as with a full time job I am limited to weekends and when Nick is in work sometimes we are down to one day only to get at least 3-6 outfits shot. Not to mention other complications like the weather for example which is always a risk in Wales and the number one most important aspect whilst shooting is lighting! which is especially hard in the winter as the nights get so dark quickly.
I am also so excited to announce in the New Year, I will be starting my very own Youtube Channel. This has been in the works now for at least the last six months if not more. I have always wanted to start a blog and finally after a year of designing the layout with my web developer and launching it this July I finally took the plunge, but I noticed a shift in the social networking sites and saw swiftly one by one bloggers expanding their brands over to Youtube. I filmed my first video over in the states while on holiday and this video will more than likely be the first video live on my channel, but of course I will keep you updated on this.
I feel like this is the next step for me and honestly I didn’t think I would do it this soon but I feel like I am ready to get my blog noticed more and expand my audience. I still am very skeptical at starting a Youtube channel as there are so many people that comment nasty things online which obviously puts me off, but I decided I can’t spend my life hiding from something I really want to do just because some people may be making fun of me, I need to do it for me. My favourite Youtuber’s right now are Lydia Elise Millen, Ashley Brooke, InTheFrow and Tamara Kalinic and watching their videos have inspired me that I definitely can do this too.
I hope you enjoyed this post and if you want to start your own channel my advice just do it!
