Since starting University a couple of weeks ago, my social life has exploded, instead of staying in at home with a tub of Ben & Jerry's watching my favourite woman, Mary Berry, on The Great British Bake Off, I find myself agreeing to go out at any opportunity which is neither great for my bank balance or my minimal wardrobe.  So here the 'Student Style' post was born; I thought It might be nice for people who are also at university to gain some inspiration, or just to be plain damn nosey, I know in my case it would definitely be the latter option. So here you go, welcome to my student style...

Printed shirt- /Next

Chunky knit cardigan- /Dorothy Perkins

Black skinny jeans- /Primark

This Has turned out to be a really good outfit to wear to uni as I am currently battling with 'Freshers Flu' so layering is much appreciated. I have found black jeans are good staple when your at uni, they look cool and you can get away with wearing them a few times without washing them, if you're careful, fellow students take note. Oh and I am a sucker for a pattern so I teamed the jeans with this almost tribal looking red shirt which is super comfortable for when you have those long lectures. 

Evening: 

Collared jumper dress- /Primark

Statement necklace- /Primark 

I am slightly ashamed but impressed at the same time that this whole outfit was purchased from Primark, us students can't afford Topshop prices, unless we want to live of beans. Monochrome is something that will always stay in fashion and keep in your wardrobe for a long time. Because this is a jumper dress it's one that would also work well in the daytime by just adding a pair of tights and a cosy coat. 

Now excuse me whilst I go shopping for more clothes.

If you enjoyed this type of post, please do let me know.

Now you may think that everyone has a twitter account, well if that's you your wrong. I have always had a love hate relationship with the idea of creating a twitter account but I have had a bit of a brainstorm and thought, why not, there is no harm to be done and its a good way to meet new people and create some new opportunities. To be honest I don't really think anyone will be too interested in anything I have just wrote, but hey, it felt good to write it down. 

So if you want to, why not give me a follow on twitter.

I think you will all agree that it has been a long time since I posted on here about what songs I am loving so I thought why not do a quick post on what songs I am listening to on repeat at the minute.

If you are a fan of The XX then this band is probably one you will like also. Their music just instantly makes you feel relaxed and calm, which is something I really enjoy after a long day at University. With their new album, 'If You Wait', that just came a couple of weeks ago, I really think that they are going to do pretty well, mark my words. 

30 Seconds To Mars- Do or die

This is another classic by the band, I wasn't too keen on their previous single as it felt too 'pop' for my liking which did make me go off them for a little while (well when I say a while, I mean like two weeks) but once this song came out, my love for the band was most definitely re-kindled.

HAIM- Don't save me 

This is a pretty obvious one but I had to put it in this post because it's such a catchy song. I love HAIM they just seem like the coolest sisters ever and I wish I was one of them, sad I know. This is a really good song to sing super loud, yes I have done it multiple times. If you haven't heard this band before I would recommend them to anyone as their songs are just so catchy, oh and you find your self doing a sneeky foot tap whenever you hear one of their songs, not to be ashamed of. 

So those were a few songs that have been going round in my head for the past few weeks, make sire to tell me in the comments below what songs you are all loving at the moment, I would love to know :)

lots of love

Hey everyone, I did mention in my previous post that I would be starting University, well after a week of living in halls I can call my self a proper student. I must admit I was so scared and nervous of moving out and to another city but thinking about it I don't think I would of had it any other way, so far it's the best and biggest achievement of my life so far. Anyway enough of the cheesy stuff I just wanted this post to let you all know I am still here, I will try and put up more posts given that I have the time to do it. Nobody may even read this post but it feels good to get things written down as they say. I hope everyone is doing well :)

Have you recently started uni? Hows it going for you?

lots of love

Hey everyone, yes it has been a while since I have been on this very blog *slaps wrist*, I got back off my holiday in Greece, which was amazing (will do blog post if interested), and I arrived home just not being bothered to do anything, so I didn't, but now I'm back and ready to blog after having a few words with myself. Now in the near future there may be a few changes around here as I start University this coming Sunday and I can't promise any consistancy in my blogging, not that I am ever consistant, so I had a little brain storm to think how could blog regulary and that very way is to take pictures of my daily (ish) outfits and post them up on here seeing as after all this blog is suposedly one of a fashion kind. I will try to do more in depth posts at times as it's something I enjoy and hope you do to but I can't promise anything as my main focus will be my degree.

Apart from that I hope you are all doing well, Summer has clearly gone now so we can all bring out the wooly jumpers ( not a euphemism) and drink even more tea.

Lots of love

Jess.xx
