Wish Box - Missguided

I am loving this shirt I think this would make a great holiday evening piece, sheer light fabric so you won't over heat, yet still smart and sophisticated for an evening meal or event. I am yet to be converted to having all the buttons done up on a shirt ( it seems to make me look huge) so I would wear it with a few buttons undone and a bikini top underneath. I would team with a bralet if not on holiday.

another piece I chose with my holiday in mind is these shorts. Again the light floaty fabric is perfect for the hot day times of holidays, and the warm summers of home, a slightly quirky piece which I would pair with a knotted denim shirt

I thought this necklace would easily add a splash of colour to any outfit which I wear it with. As well as being a subtle nod to the tribal trend.

My wildcard of this wish box would be these leggings these were definitely not picked with holiday sun in mind and would without a doubt be more suited to the English weather. They are quite far away from what I would usually wear but I find myself drawn to them! and the fact that vertical stripes are meant to be lengthening on the leg is a definite bonus! ( I am fairly short) If I somehow get an influx of cash soon these are what I would first purchase I think.

all these items are from missguided

Surprise holiday prep

So as I am in my first year at uni and have not got myself a new job yet I kind of accepted that I would not be going on holiday this year to any where remotely exotic or outside of England. Cue my boyfriend:

Him: I have a mission for you this week

Me: erm ok?...( a worried look on my face) 

Him: find a holiday for us, somewhere quiet and sunny, at the beginning of summer ( he then went on to detail the budget and boarding etc) I'll pay, you just save up your spending money.

I am ecstatic! and so very grateful to him. I know that when I have a bad day I can just look for holidays and it will instantly cheer me up.

Though of course with A holiday now on the horizon I have to do the usual pre holiday body blitz. Recently I have been doing Jillian's 30 days shred, not religiously as is meant to but I figured some exercise is better than none. I have now vowed to myself to keep this up.

I also plan to change my eating habits ( I am a bit of a junk food lover) I let myself have my last sinful breakfast this morning ( bacon egg and cheese bagel) and from now on am going to try my hardest to eat more fruit and veg and to generally be more active, no more lazy days in my pyjamas when I don't have uni !

I'll let you know how well I manage to stick to this and any little tips and tricks which I find have helped.

Is anyone else planning a holiday this year? where too? do you have a pre-holiday ritual?
