Fashion Rut

What a month it has been.

Mid/Late October I started a new job after my long and painful nine-month job-hunt and unemployed lifestyle. I've been lucky enough to be getting a decent amount of shifts at work and so far I've passed by two paydays which I must say I am glad to be seeing again.

However with working so much it means I'm stuck in a uniform that makes a potato sack look flattering! It doesn't help that when I look in my closet or dresser I am unhappy with all the clothes I see. Most of them seem so young, and since I'm constantly told I look 16-17 maybe it's time to switch up my look? If only that were easier to do than it is to say...

Does anybody want to give me some tips on giving my wardrobe a make-over? I want to get rid of a good 70% of the things I own, but I'm afraid of having so little options (although are they really options if I know I won't wear them and they are only there to make it appear as that I have a big clothing collection?)

I know I've been been blanking on blog post ideas but I'm feeling a bit more inspired and hopefully that feeling sticks around.

Santa's Secret

Buying a tin of Santa's Secret from DAVID'sTEA was the smartest idea I've had yet. There's nothing like a hot drink that tastes like the holidays (the extra peppermint twist and caffeine don't hurt either). I've only had four cups out of the 100g bag I have in my tin (it's hardly made a dent in the amount in there) and it's already paid itself off. I definitely need to purchase a few more flavors for at home, a great investment for someone who loves as much as tea I do, a great money saver too in the long run!
*Please note all opinions expressed in this post are my own, I was not contacted for a review, this was done because I truly love the product, and DAVID'sTEA is just great.
