That time I lived in a Manor for a few days in the Peak District. 30th Dec 2024 - 3rd Jan 2025

The last day of 2024 outfit wearing
Tiger print fleece made in the UK from dead stock fabric.

Secondhand Zara patchwork skirt from
(Lovely charity shop!) Tops, cardigan & faux fur gilet all from various charity shops too.

Boots from pull&bear worn with those imitation skin look thermal tights from by that I am obsessed with (tights, socks & un**es are generally the only things I buy new).

"Some Things I Cannot Change, But 'Til I Try I'll Never Know" - Elphaba, Wicked musical. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👏🏻👏🏻💚

For some strange reason 'Wicked' was never on my bucket list of musicals that I 'must go' and see. I didn't know about the story, luckily that view changed as I decided I fancied watching in cinema after seeing all the interviews & promo about the iconic due that is & , I thought I'd check out what the hype was all about...

& I'm so thankful that I did, as I had no idea that it would be so 'me', about animal liberation & feeling different to others, so I truly connected with the whole story and then out of the blue I was driving home (ironically wearing a green & pink wicked inspired outfit) when my boyfriend called me to say his cousin had double booked and had tickets available to watch Wicked on the 17th December so thankyou .c99 for double booking 😅 - hope you enjoyed Slipknot!

The theatre performance was also incredible, very lucky to witness such talent. It is on in until the 12th January so I would definitely recommend going to see it if there are any tickets available! 💚💖

& Ofc it's meeee so I had to wear something green, black & pink - second hand obvs (both from clothes swaps! bodysuit from a swap years ago & black denim flares from a swapshop years ago) & on theme socks too! Animal print coat from & yin & yang bag Vinted bday gift (didn't go perfect with the outfit but I like the concept of the Yin & Yang between Elphaba & Glinda).

And All. That. Jazz. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Last month for me & my partners 12 year anniversary ❤️ we were very fortunate to have been able to catch whilst it was on at in Manchester.

The musical is now my all time favourite so it was very special for me to see it on a special day on the 8th November 2024.

I absolutely loved the film after watching it earlier in the year (for the first time!), I had always loved the music and knew I desperately wanted to watch it live in theatre asap and as soon as the opening song came on I was welling up even though it wasn't a sad song I was just so happy to be there getting to experience it all live for the first time.

All of the talent on that stage was incredible, if you're ever able to go watch Chicago in theatre know that your stockings will be knocked off!

These past few years I have started to realise my love for theatre productions and little did I know that I would be also watching Wicked next month too!

Of course I had to dress on theme with my outfit ofc all second hand apart from the stockings - faux fur black coat bfs Grandma's hand-me-down, sheer black embellished long sleeve top my grandmas, embellished black waistcoat - charity shop & lace playsuit.

Please wish good luck to the BSB babes that comes to visit the shops! (Plural now!!) Because we all know she'd love it here 💖

Massive congrats on the opening week of the new shop in Withington (📍160-164 Wellington Rd, Withington, Manchester M20 3FU )

I was lucky enough to visit the opening night party which was full of you know just gorgeous things & the loveliest, friendliest bunch of people (because BSB has the best most supportive community which I love to see & be a part of!).

.fashion so proud of you all for all the hard work 👏🏻 & I can't wait to come back! It's also in such a gr8 spot right near a bunch of charity shops & vegan food places, so it'll make a perfect little thrift trip! 😍🛍️🌱

Also well done to for the cute signage & all the other incredible artists who have their work on display, that cowboy boots canvas behind the counter - I'm obsessed 🤩

Goodbye Scottish borders Shepherds Hut 🐑 it was nice reminiscing. Bonchester Bridge, 'Curlew' 17-21st Aug 2021.

The first time we saw the milky way galaxy so clear and a shooting star! 💫 Having a picnic with french baguettes on the field with the sheep, painting Pokémon & pebbles, cosying up watching Julia Roberts movies, going for hikes and spotting a hare, wishing I could be back there.

First stay in a Shepherd's Hut, where my love for little countryside getaways in the middle of nowhere began. Bonchester Bridge 17-21st Aug 2021.

I think I belong in a little cottage, somewhere I can live peacefully around nature. ☺️

Taking a trip back in time to visiting the Royal Yacht Britannia & staying in a cool Airbnb apartment in Edinburgh, city break Aug 17th 2021.

Next stop Shepherds Hut in the middle of nowhere aka Bonchester Bridge.

Highly recommend going on a trip & splitting it in two (first part city break second part countryside/nature retreat).

Exploring Edinburgh Aug 16th 2021.

I bought this dress in a charity shop but it was too big on the sides so I took it in and made headbands/ hair ties out of the off-cuts.

Being a typical tourist in Edinburgh, 15th Aug 2021.

Although completely missed seeing the actual Bobby statue and thought the graveyard one was it, and didn't realise until I went back in 2023. 😅

Love the Harry Potteryness of the place, hence the Hermione-esque outfit I decided to wear that day.

Loved the magical cocktail making at too 🍸🪄✨

My bfs old pokemon t-shirt says adventure awaits the brave explorer. 🧭🥾🧳

T-shirts & leggings are my daily comfort wears, might not be the most 'stylish' but I sometimes love practical & comfortable clothing more so than fancy clothes, especially for walks & chill days.

Also so many wild mushrooms spotted on the walk! 🍄

Hey Mate 👋🏻 Let's go on a Date with Kate to Worth the Weight! Oh how I do love a cheesy rhyme 😉😅 @worththeweightvintage kilo sale travels around the UK and like it says on the tin it is defo worth the weight!

I love what I managed to find and can't wait to style them! We went to the Manchester pop up held in @victoriabaths & it'll be back again in Mcr on the 18th Jan at Halle St Peter so go check it out and grab yourself some bargains!
