School takes over!

Back to reality now! After 2 weeks of incredible lie ins, gorgeous food and presents, school comes crawling back! I don't mind school, I'm quite academical and I enjoy learning and having a laugh in school, but I tell you, when's half term?!! The days are dragging in, and I really just can't be bothered to do controlled assessments and translation homeworks! Bleh. 
Well the weekend is a day away, so that's not a bad thing! 
On Friday night I'm going ice skating with my youth, and on Saturday it's my friends birthday, so at least I have some things to look forward to! 
Til next time, Lucinda ❤️

Haul

Hello, my name is Lucy Allen and I am a shopaholic! 
The sales are on, the sales are on! I decided to go into town today and grab me some bargains. There was lovely stuff in most of the shops and I am very pleased with my results! 
First I visited DV8. Their sale was great I must say!
I picked up this black velvet dress, with cropped sleeves. It was reduced from £22 to £18. 
I then bought this knee long, straight skirt with a black and white checkered pattern on it. It was £9.99.

I then proceeded into TK Maxx, where I bought some gym wear.
I got a blue vest top which was £10 and three quarter length black gym trousers which were £13. 

Then, I entered new look, and that's where the damage was done....
I grabbed this NAVY (looks black) long sleeved jumper dress, and this was reduced to £4.
This pink satin top wasn't in the sale, but it was so nice I couldn't resist. It was still only £13.
I got this dress as well, and again this looks black but it is a burgundy red. So pretty, and only £10.
I got a little navy and white stripped long sleeved top, as I needed some more plain tops to wear. It was only £4 as well.
These shoes were my favourite buy of the day! Reduced to a tenner! Burgundy peep toe with shiny gold heels! Love them 
That's my haul for now! Bye !

Post-Christmas clear out and bff catchup


Today I finally tackled the task of my once known as a bed room! Everyone's house is a mess after Christmas, with all the new gifts that you receive, it's very difficult to find a place to put it all! This is usually a good time to clear out all your rubbish and unwanted possessions, so that was my ambition today! So I stuck on some comfy clothes, tied my hair back and got stuck into tidying the tip! I got lots of clothes and things for charity/auction, lots of old clothes for the clothing bin and bags and bags of complete and utter rubbish! It was so nice to clear it all away, and de-clutter for the beginning of 2014. I like to organise and clear out from time to time, it refreshes my mindset. I have to admit though, I am terrible at keeping my room tidy. I love to organise but then I get to lazy to keep up with it, so most of the time my room is like a bomb site! Oopsies! 
Here are some before and after pics!

I always use shoe boxes and drawer dividers to maximise my storage space^
(Listen mrs allsop here!)

My best friend Loren rang and asked to go out, so we went to josh macs for a meal and a catch up. It was nice to sit down and talk to her, and it was an incredible dinner! 
Loren and I ages ago!^

There was another little surprise and happy moment that occurred today....
Yes! Zoe is finally home!!! She's still a tiny bit ill but i am ecstatic to at long last be able to have her at home! She loved it here! So peaceful, lots of cuddles and is such an adventurer! She even climbed into the shower when I wasn't looking! She followed me about which was really funny, and I just couldn't get enough of her! I am so happy right now, Zoe is the most precious thing and I am thrilled to have her home and with me all the time now! Amazing! ❤️
Well I guess that's it for now, speak soon,
Lucinda 💚
