Fashionable friend

Whilst looking for some trousers for work I stumbled on these beauties in M&S of all places! They reminded me of one of the prints from the Clements Riberio collection in Evans as they are a cute heart print pattern.


Plus check out my new pet! I got him last Sunday when I worked at the Loughborough Mela. After seeing balloon animals gracing the runways of last season shows I was surprised to see a local balloon seller in town with them!

Where I get personal

It's all change over here at My Stylish Life! The new job is going well but it is challenging and tiring so I haven't been at my best outfit wise. Also the office is very casual so my usual style of dressing up doesn't really go.


On a personal note I have embarked on The Cambridge Weight Plan. I've always been overweight and learned to live with it but not like it so I finally decided to do something about it. The ma is doing it too so we can do it together, which is great from a support angle. I have lost almost 2 stone so far and there is still more to go but I am determined to do it and get to a stage where I am happy about my weight.


I know that this is a drastic way to loose weight ( it is a very low calorie diet consisting of shakes, soups, bars and small meals) but I feel like this plan is working for me.


I hope that whilst you may not agree with what I am doing, you can understand why and I hope that you will continue to read as I will be posting again! I feel that now it's time to be honest with you readers and in case anyone was wondering what had happened to me.


Anyway enough of the personal stuff! Here is a recent outfit post:

Pie eyed

So another day another show and yesterday it was Sweeney Todd! Such a major Michael Ball fan so I was excited to see how he was and he was great, the whole show was great! Decided to dress as an homage to Mrs Lovett but I think it was a bit fancy dress! I wore the stripey New Look Inspire "dress" that is incredibly short and to be honest is more like a tunic on me and I'm only 5ft 5!

Had a good day taking the ma and sis to Choccywoccydoodah and Forever21 so the sis could get some clothes. And then drinks at St Pancras Hotel before getting the train home.

This photo shows a "Congrats" balloon in the back as I found out last week that I've finally got a job! Hopefully this means more outfit posts for the future.

The dreams that you dare to dream

It's been an exciting time recently! I was an extra in a Leicester based film called Jadoo, met up with a friend in London where we had a delicious lunch at Tibits, went to see the Wizard of Oz and I moseyed along to the opening of the new Choccywoccydoodah store, just off Oxford Circus. Also been auditioning and learning lines for the panto awards night this Saturday.

And now for an outfit shot, wearing some goodies from Forever21:
