Day Four of the Job Hunt;

WHAT A BABE? Yes, I gave in to Jeremy Kyle.

30 job applications, 2 sort of interviews, and one meeting with destiny (or well the job centre).

I must say, my misuse of the post-it note over this time is well documented in my wee folder filled with lists and phone numbers.

At least through all of this I have London (or well Bury St.Edumunds) to look forward to :)! Can't wait to see Tanya and have some new adventures in a new place. Got my tickets through and everything!!

Joining The Ranks Of The Unemployed.

All I can say is... I hope if I do one day become homeless, I can be as fierce are the America's Next Top Model girls a few seasons back!

In the mean time my life consists of too much Facebook, ridiculous amounts of emails to stores where I don't possess the right "look" and of course the big one; printing enough CV's and cover letters to reinstate a quarter of the rainforest.

This is all in the quest for a full-time job. Let's not forget. A full-time job I will moan about constantly until the end of time. But a job none the less.

In the mean time my main concerns stand at... Should I go to the job centre and get the little evil sign on book as a hopeful way to make some cash - maybe. Should I tell my parents - maybe. Should I give in and watch Jeremy Kyle - NEVER!

Looks dead good doesn't it? Even got a policeman guarding it! The things we do for money eh??

forth time lucky;

I wish it was Halloween every day. Would be a good excuse to buy any of these. At almost five hundred for a corset, there would have to be a great excuse.

imaginary wedding planning;

So as bridesmaid for my big sister I keep looking at wedding dresses, and websites to help plan and other similar things. However little old single me keeps getting distracted and planning my own (non-existent) big day! So the cute quirky vintage elements in all these images are almost perfection, if only they would work in Scotland! Our weather is far too unreliable to even contemplate an outside wedding!

my new warehouse crushes;

Fairisle Blanket Cardi £60

Nomadic Traveller

Okay so Debenhams is rarely too cold, but late one Thursday night it was freezing! So grabbing the nearest jumper to me I threw this beauty on; unfortunately for the Royal Bank of Scotland it was love at first wear. Because if this winter is anything like the last everyone will need one of these! Love Love Love.

Swallow Print Dress £60
Wonderland

So I haven't even seen this in the "flesh" never mind tried it on, but as a taste of things to come winter is looking pretty damn fine. My manager's return from the inspiration day in London sparked my interest; the theme "wonderland" which has a 40's feel and is inspired by Alice and Wonderland (think prints similar to Miu Miu this summer) is what I'm looking forward to most about the new Autumn/Winter stock. And if this dress is anything to go by, I am positively peeing my pants in anticipation!

Lace One Shoulder Dress £40
Gothic Dandy

OH MY. I first spotted this little beauty last week and I was mega excited at the prospect of even going into Glasgow and trying it on but on Tuesday (a day of horrible 20% off green promo tickets) I opened the first box of delivery to find my beautiful dress lying on top. After a sneaky wee trying on session it has been concluded that it is gorgeous on, very very reasonably priced and I had to go down two dress sizes!! This is my party dress of the winter :)

lingerie obsession part 3;

The excitement I felt when I saw new stock online was possibly equal to Christmas, and then I realised that a) I have no money to buy anything and b) there is no way in hell I will look as good as the model in them!

Scrap that, can I just be her?
