Instagrammin'





Hallo meine Lieben!

I hope you're all ok?

SO sorry for not having posted in FOREVER! I've been so busy having had people come visit, work has been mega hectic and I just haven't had a chance to whack out my camera and get some proper pictures taken. This weekend I plan on being lazy at home so I will finally get a few outfits photographed and posted!

In the mean time, I've finally gone over to the dark side of Apple... sorry Blackberry. I have discovered -and become instantly addicted to- instagram, and you can follow me here: http://instagram.com/amylouise26x or search amylouise26x on instagram - I post pictures regularly so it won't be as boring/disappointing as my blog of late!

See you on instagram/at the weekend with some new outfit posts!

Have a lovely week!

F.A.W.N.

Hello! happy Monday!
How are you all today? Hope you had a great weekend!
Some of my friends from home were here and so I spent the majority of it in bed with a hangover but it was a lot of fun!

My look for today...hype on LOOKBOOK HERE!
The T-Shirt is from F.A.W.N Couture, which is the company of a guy I know which makes really cool tees and sweatshirts at great prices, all made in the UK. Check them out here: F.A.W.N. I've worn this tee way too many times since I got it at Christmas but I love it and it's so easy to throw on, and, obviously, it's black which as we all know is my favourite colour!
My shoes, ohh my shoes! I got them from TK Maxx after having had the sample shoe sat on my desk for months! They're Bullboxer and I love the cut-out detailing and also the silver panels on the heel and toe.
I think this is a very 'me' outfit!

What have you been wearing recently?








Have a great week!

Your mind is a mess, so is mine

Hello!
How are you all?
I am TIREDDD! I started on new departments at work today which was really exciting and interesting, but after 5 days off it definitely wore me out... and to top it off, I have to go to physio which is not fun!
On the plus side... HAPPY PANCAKE DAY! I think it's actually one of my favourite holidays and I can't wait for some lemon and sugar on my pancakes before the dieting begins tomorrow!
What's your favourite pancake topping?

Anyway...
my latest look can be hyped here: LOOKBOOK




Despite all-black outfits being my norm, this outfit feels slightly gothic even for me!
My jumper is a net jumper which I picked up at Primark in Germany - it's really great to throw over black, but in the Summer I'm excited to try some neon colours or bandeau tops underneath it.
My black shirt is just a plain shirt I picked up in the Esprit sale and my leggings are from Topshop.
I got the boots from a sample sale at work (jammy dodger!) They're really cool and although I'm not usually a huge fan of embellishments, they are just the right amount to set off an outfit! :)

Hope you like!
Until next time...let me know your thoughts!

Leopard Print & Skulls

Hello!
First of all a massive apology for not having posted in forever. Things have been so busy at work and home - the week before last I was in London for a meeting and then surprised mummaD for her birthday for the weekend which was lovelyy and got to see all my beautiful friends which was amazing. Then last week I was lucky enough to fly to Munich and visit the ISPO trade fair which is basically all the sports brands you can imagine - SO cool. If you ever get the chance to go, I recommend the action sports hall where Vans, Etnies, Zoo York etc are - such amazing stuff to see and a lot of cool people!


Anyway - I'm back with a new look! Check it out here!
My T-shirt was a Christmas present from my brother and I can't stop wearing it! I love that it's so simple yet the leopard print pocket patch adds a little twist. 
I got these skull print Vans a while ago and love them, I'm not usually a huge fan of print but as I tend to mostly have plain outfits, I find these are just the right amount of print to add a bit of excitement and edge to an outfit.
My black pants are as always my staple from H&M - I went back at the weekend and stocked up on another few pairs... it is an odd addiction.






Anyway hope you like the look! Hopefully things will start slowing down soon and I'll get more time to post!

Hope you're having a great weekend!
