MINI REVIEW ON HTTP://WWW.ACCRODELAMODE.COM

So I just checked my stats, and traffic was up today thank's to http://www.accrodelamode.com/. I only just checked out this site for the first time but OMG how amazing are all those illustrations of all those gorgeous Fatshionistas!? Thank you for the lovely mini-review Isabelle!

GUESS WHO'S BACK, BACK AGAIN, MELLYS BACK, TELL A FRIEND!

Hey y'all! Wow it's been a long time! In between work, play time and other boring chairing commitments I have, I seem to have got lost and forgotten about my blog. I haven't been taking many pictures even though I finally got my new camera mainly due to the fact I am embarrassed by the current state of my bedroom and it being the only place I can set up my camera on self timer. I guess I need to figure something out though because I have done nothing but shop so have so many clothes to showcase!
Here's an outfit from a while back when we had some nice weather in London:

Maxi Dress: Dorothy Perkins (UK Size 22)
Denim Jacket: H&M (UK Size XL)
Gladiator Sandals: Evans (UK Size 8 E)
Brown Leather Belt: Dorothy Perkins (UK Size XL)

Hopefully I can start posting a bit more regularly again! Thanks for sticking with me folks! xxx

BIRTHDAY GIRL!

You guuuuuuuuys!! I've been so busy since I started work but I actually miss blogging every week! I even had the cutest outfit on today- fear not though I will wear it again one day soon!

So tomorrow I turn the ripe old age of 26 and because I am still waiting on my new camera (which arrives tomorrow) I will share some nostalgic photos with you:

(Baby Mel a few days old) 

(My 2nd Birthday)

(On my 5th Birthday)


I promise promise promise I will be back with regular-ish posts soon! Hopefully in a lot better quality too!

AWOL

Hi guys! I must apologise for my absence. I don't like leaving my blog too long like I have the past few weeks. I have been super busy with all sorts. I've been preoccupied with sorting out a 'work wardrobe' for myself, buying bits and pieces that are more smart/casual rather than my beloved jeggings. I've also been busy organising Royal Wedding parties and just generally being a busy body.
I shared with you all a while back how my boyfriend broke my camera; well I ordered a new one and have been waiting forever for it to come in to stock and in the meantime I can't find my old one so haven't been bothered to photograph my outfits! I'm sure my new camera will be a good incentive to start up again though so fear not!

Anyway, till my camera arrives things will be quiet over here!

OOTD

My mobile phone has been playing up the last few weeks. I actually took this photo a couple of weeks ago before it was wiped off my phone before I had the chance to upload it. It miraculously came back yesterday so here we are:
Navy Hareem Pants: Evans (UK Size 22)
White Tee: New Look (UK Size 22)
Denim Jacket: H&M (UK Size 22)
Gold Shoes: Toms (UK Size 9)

I had a great outfit on today for the boiling hot weather (31 Celsius near me in London) but alas I forgot to take a picture! (sad face)

I should be getting a new camera soon so i hope to start taking a lot more pics! Also, my new job requires me to dress smart/casual so I will have to say goodbye to my beloved jeggings and jeans till the weekends! I don't quite know how to grasp the whole smart/casual thing so ideas and inspiration is greatly welcomed!

OOTD: JOB INTERVIEW GET UP

The de-lovely Laura of The Blog of Worldly Delights recently posted this where she mentioned having to dress accordingly for a new job.

I went for a job interview today and STRUGGLED to think of what to wear. I hate suits. I feel like my aura cannot shine through a boring suit but I was quite pleased with what I managed to piece together! I have to apologise for the half body shots- my mum has what I would put politely as, little photographic flair!






Black Linen Trousers: True F&F @ Tesco (UK Size 22)
Pussybow Bird Blouse: ASOS (UK Size 18)
Black Linen Jacket: Marks & Spencer (UK Size 22)
Black Shoes: Evans (UK Size 9)
Bag: ASOS

It was a huge step tucking that blouse in to my trousers- I have never done it before for fear of everyone seeing just how large my backside is but I don't care anymore! I thought I looked the part, and feel I managed to merge formal and stylish relatively well. Now here's to hoping I get the job!- Pray for me/wish me luck/think of me/send good vibes please!
