The Wonders of Whole Foods

So today I went to Whole Foods (I say today but I actually mean yesterday) and wow guys, it is amazing. I don't think I've ever said on my blog but I am a vegetarian and also intolerant to gluten. I always get ridiculed when I say I'm 'gluten intolerant' but I'm not full on allergic but give me something that contains gluten and my belly will swell up and some other not so nice tummy habits! But all in all, being allergic to gluten can be a downer because god damn it is expensive. Gluten free food is still expensive in whole foods to be fair, but oh boy there is so much of it. And it was only a small Whole Foods (I went to the one in Piccadilly) so I can only imagine what a big store has! I could have spent hours in there, heck, I think I did spend hours in there!

Please ignore the blur, it was taken on my friends iPod and believe it or not, posing in Whole Foods in front of all the fruit is pretty awkward. It was one quick take or nothing 

So not only was it busting with gluten free foods, vegan foods but oh man the fruit and veg section. I didn't even know mushrooms could look the way that I saw! I am very passionate about vegetables and fruit (oh what a cool teenager I am) and this selection made my heart sing. I ended up buying some grapes and in my mind, they're the best grapes I've ever had. I've probably had better to be fair, but Whole Foods just had this effect on me. Also, I had seen on so many vegan 'What I Eat in A Day Videos' (I'm not vegan but just enjoy watching those because wow their recipes are so inventive! Who knew dates could be consumed in so man ways!) roasted cauliflower and herbs, which seems so simple but I never made then low and behold Whole Foods sold a box of it pre-made and ready to be eaten. I didn't buy the box because my money was lacking but I tried some of my friends. They had this salad bar and hot food bar and juice bar and burrito bar (all in a very small space may I add, I'm not sure how all this food fitted)  and ah it was just amazing. I am very excited to go back to Whole Foods with my mum and get her to buy all the items. 

Although, Whole Foods did have some very weird items. I don't remember many but I do remember seeing avocado hummus which I have never tried, but the idea makes me uncomfortable. They're such different textures and tastes, how could the two be combined!? They also had tasters of raw cakes (which I've always wanted to try) and oh man it was amazing, next time I'm there I'm definitely going to buy a whole one. I ended up buying this chia seed pudding pot which I did not particularity enjoy because the texture made me feel weird. Also my friend who I went with got a vegan cupcake and it looked so good. 

Long story short, if you're in to healthy foods, are vegan/gluten/lactose intolerant, Whole Foods will blow your mind. I wish I could say here this was a sponsored post and then I could just go back to my fridge full of their roasted cauliflower and kale pot goodness, but alas. It is not. Don't worry though, I will try to re make this wonderful cauliflower and once I have nailed it I will show you how I done it. It's probably not even hard to make  but I never have a cauliflower in my fridge and that is a pretty damn vital ingredient. 

A Jumper In Summer

Okay I lied, NOW I am back to blogging. I don't even know what happened but now I am back for good I swear. I just don't feel very creative and have no idea what to post at the moment but hey ho creativity can be forced I suppose! Also I just got back from my family holiday and, oh boy, I didn't realise how hot England was. I would do a holiday post but I'm not very good at those and it was a very relaxing holiday, if I were to tell you what I done the post wouldn't last very long. I ate a lot of garlic bread though, probably way more than the average person should.

Oh I feel so excited to be blogging again for good, I have much more time now and can really focus on doing better posts. Wahoo! I want to make another blog twitter but last time a friend found me and it made me feel embarrassed. I don't mind some people knowing abou tmy blog but at the same time, it's my little space, you know?

Jumper- Urban Outfitters (the jumper is brand new but I can't find it on the website, apologies!!)  |  Socks- Topshop  |  Necklace- Urban Outfitters(old)

In these photos I look half dead and I am aware it is summer now and should show more summer outfits but, I got a jumper from Urban Outfitters and I love it. As much as I love the sun and heat I am not dreading colder times as much now that I have my new jumper. You can see the stitching on it and I'm not sure why I love that so much, but oh I really do. And the colour is so pretty, I bet it would look great with a tan but I have a feeling whilst I still have my holiday tan it will not be cold enough to wear this jumper. Also, these pink glittery socks are my life. I think pink is becoming my favourite colour and I have no regrets. Although these socks are a weird material and I can feel my feet slippin and slidin around when I wear my docs and when my feet get sweaty, well woah buddy it's not pleasant. But, it is worth it for the beautiful pink glitter.

Wow I really need to get on my game with outfit posts. I can't believe I'm showing you all my favourite jumper when it's over 20 degrees outside. Oh well, I haven't blogged in ages, I feel like a newbie. I need to sort my shit out, I tell ya. Anyway, adios for now I will be back (huzzah I am excited) with more seasonal appropriate posts. I hope you're all having a marvellous week!
From looking at my photos I realise these are not the best and I should work on my photography ideas, bloomin heck I feel like a newbie all over again!

Summer Recall

Well, two months later I have a blog post. Crikey, I don't know how I left it so long. My plan was to wait till after exams but then I just got into a rut of not knowing what to post/ not having any motivation but now my college has officially broken up for summer and I can never leave my blog. Although to be fair I never thought I' be able to abandon it for a couple of weeks let alone two months!

Oh the irony, wearing a jumper and drinking tea even though the title is referring to summer. Also how adroabel is my Saved By The Bell jumper, who remember this incredible show

Anyway lets all take a moment to appreciate the fact exams are officially over for now, mine have actually been over for a while but oh well. Now I get the joy of writing my personal statement, doing work experience and learning my driving theory but also the joy of summer! I study Classics and we went on a school trip for five days to Athens and oh wow it was such an amazing trip, all the old architecture was so incredible to see but especially because we had studied it for so long. Also they  had amazing tomatoes there. But I won't go into depth about the trip because it would be boring for you guy.s

Summer is also exciting because of all the books I can read, going on adventures, seeing friends and I just love being able to wear sunglasses. My favourite ones from last year broke after I sat on them , tried to fix them but just ended up repeatedly accidentally sitting on them however I got a good pair for this year. It's a weird summer this year though because loads of my friends will be going to uni next year and it's just such a weird concept! 

This is just kind of a crappy recap post, I will improve later on but just need to get back into the swing of blogging, hopefully I'll re-design my blog as well because it has been like this for far too long. Ah I forgot how much I love writing blog posts, even little ones like this (to be fair I'm far too tired to write a good 'un) but adios my friends, oh how I have missed you and see you soon!

A Productive Sunday?

I've been trying to have a productive Sunday for about a month now and they're just not working. Every Sunday I mean to write a blog post but Sundays are also the only days I can sleep in and also are the days of last minute homework, and blogging isn't fitting into the schedule at the moment. So, I apologise now and in advance for my lack of posts during this month (although hopefully I'll be able to squeeze at least three into April) and next month because as the vast majority of us know, it is exam season! Not only that but April just is a busy month in general because it's everyone in my familys birthday (except one of us) and I have been extraordinary tired lately.

I actually do have blog post ideas as well though, just too tired to take photos right now so we can have a little catch up.

sister club ft my mum and non biological but may as well be sister

My sister who lives in New Zealand is currently home with her boyfriend! She came home as a surprise for all our birthdays and boy oh boy it sure was surprising. It was my other sisters 21st earlier this month and my Dads 50th, so we've had some big birthdays to celebrate.

I went to see Years & Years during Easter and they were amazing (I didn't expect anything less) and you know when you just really love a band then you see them in person and you have that 'Oohf' moment, I had that and the whole concert was just so fun. I got a jumper after from one of the vendors outside and I was hustled, I asked for a large and the jumper I got could only be considered a large on a small child. However, for £10 it was worth it as a nice bed jumper and I'll hopefully get a proper one for my birthday.

Having a birthday so close to exams is so stressful because I don't have time to look for present ideas or go shopping but all I know is I would really like some makeup and some clothes. I know exactly what clothes I want but they require me to go out and try them on, and a few can only be found in certain London shops which I just don't have time to trek to at the moment. In this post though, I'm wearing a top that I love and want to find more like it. Does anyone have any clue where I can buy a dainty printed top like that from? I'm thinking get a few things for my birthday but mainly wait till after exams so I can go on a big shop, but I really am running low on clothes. I just can't wait for half term during exams so I can go shopping!
I hope you're all doing well and good luck for any upcoming exams!

Creepers Fashion

Ft my dog Lulu

Dress-Asos  |  Socks- Urban Outfitters (similar)  |  Shoes- I have no idea I got them from my sister  |  Coat-Asos (simialr)

Hello lovely people! Sorry I've been so on and off with posting I just never really use my laptop much anymore because I'm too god damn busy. Anyway, the other day I wore the cutest outfit to college (if I do say so myself) but I didn't get any pictures however I do have some other pictures of a cute outfit to show. I wore creepers (how 2009 of me) but I've discovered I bloomin love platform shoes! And they're not that hard to walk in, I thought I would struggle but I was fine, although now I've probably jinxed it and next time I wear them I'll fall. Although it was a simple outfit, with just a dress and normal tights it was cute, in my opinion. I'm not sure if it's big headed to compliment you're own outfits because I don't want to seem like some arrogant twat.

In other news, the other day I went to a party that was 80's themed and it was so much fun. I love a themed party! And I feel like 80's was appropriate because then you could either go half hearted with just a cool funky shirt or all out, me and my friends went all out. I wore lacey black tights with a jumper dress and a bright pink scrunchie and bright pink socks and a lot of bright eyeshadow which has inspired me to get more colourful eyeshadow (as I have mentioned here) and to get more scrunchies. All these things I want, no time to go out and buy them, what a life.
