Cute New Things

By -
Cross hair clip - £1.50 Topshop

Studded pink headband - £2.50 Topshop

Thumb Rings - £2 River Island

Ear Cuffs - £2 River Island

Gel Eyeliner - Superdrug £3

David Bowie record - £1.99 Oxfam
Today I went shopping to Bury with my sister because she's going back to Uni on Sunday and I had the day off (inset days and I've only been back for a week). I didn't have a lot of money to take with me so I'm happy with my purchases today. I am especially pleased with the ear cuffs as similar ones in topshop were about £7.50! 

I also asked around for jobs and handed in CVs to Topshop (they were recruiting last week I cannot believe I missed it), New Look, Internacionale (is that how you spell it?) and Nandos. None of them actually had any vacancies but Topshop mentioned Christmas temps and Nandos said that a lot of their staff are going back to uni soon so that seems the most hopeful but I don't want to jinx anything.

What is Environmental Racism & 24 Helpful Resources to Help You Learn More

Environmental racism is a relatively new concept for me and something I am learning more about everyday. Environmental racism refers to the way in which Black people, indigenous people and people of colour are disproportionately effected by the climate crisis. Since this is something that I am learning about, I wanted to share some resources with you that I have found useful and that can explain it much better than I can. So What is Environmental Racism? Let's start with some definitions... "Environmental racism refers to public policies and industry practices disproportionately placing the burden of pollution, waste and the climate crisis on Black people, indigenous people and people of colour" - Waste Free Marie " Environmental racism refers to the way in which minority group neighbourhoods (populated primarily by people of color and members of low socioeconomic groups) are burdened with a disproportionate number of hazards, including toxic waste facilities, garbag

I don't know about you but all I am obsessed with podcasts at the moment. They are all I listen to, especially when I am working. But rather than listen to podcasts that simply fill the time and provide me with some background noise, I'm opting for ones that leave me feeling motivated and inspired. From activism to self confidence, I'm listening to it ALL . Here's my top 8 podcasts to listen to when you want to feel inspired and motivated and what's even better is that they are all hosted by female presenters.  Gurls Talk   presented by Adwoa Aboah. This is probably my favourite podcast at the moment. Learning from her personal experiences with mental health, activist and supermodel Adwoa Aboah founded Gurls Talk - a judgement free platform for women to share their own experiences. On this podcast you can expect to hear people talk about their experiences of various situations from sexuality and confidence to grief and depression - no topic is too taboo for this pod

An Ode to My Former Wardrobe

By -

14 months ago I hopped on a plane (or two) to sunny New Zealand, leaving most of my wardrobe behind. I packed my favourite items into my backpack and off I went. Not long after starting my trip I declared that I would try not to purchase any new clothes for a whole year to keep my wardrobe sustainable (and it went pretty well ). After 14 months of wearing the same pieces, I have to admit I am getting quite bored. Most of my capsule wardrobe consists of 3 colours: black, white, rusty orange so it's fairly easy to mix and match my pieces but I am longing for some change, particularly as my style continues to evolve.  I miss my pink cords, my favourite blue denim jeans that I wore constantly. I want my abundance of oat coloured jumpers  and my favourite customised blazer. I have developed a real appreciation for the wardrobe that I left behind and find myself styling outfits that I will wear when I return home. I am so used to wearing the same outfits that some of my old
