Inside Melly's Mind

The new term is almost upon us. New term = new clothes. Oh, and lots of reading in preparation, of course. But going back to school/college handily coincides with the coming Autumn season - what better excuse do you need to revamp your wardrobe?  At uni, my style stepped up, thank goodness. But I look back at what I wore during my college days and literally die inside. So, this post is partly for all the students out there who are stuck for ideas. But it's partly for me to fantasize about how I wish I'd dressed at college.  Believe me, it is possible to be slightly lazy when those winter mornings arrive and you're getting ready in a rush (because you wanted the extra few minutes in bed. No? Just me?) and still look gorgeous.

After my post about the Recipe for a Fabulous Saturday , I decided it was time to document another gorgeous Saturday.

This week's Wednesday Wish List is all about Pay Day. I wouldn't usually make a big deal out of what I plan to buy around Pay Day but I've got a few items in mind that I thought I'd share with you all.

This week's Wednesday Wish List is all about studs. They are everywhere at the moment and they're certainly a trend I'm investing in. Roll on Pay Day!

Lately, I've been thinking up some fab new features for you lovely readers to keep coming back to. So, welcome to Beauty Tuesday . I won't be writing this feature every week because I tend to focus more on fashion than beauty. But...I need to rave about the latest addition to my make up bag.

Welcome to my brand new feature: Wednesday WishList. Every week, I'll compile a list of items that I would LOVE to purchase if: I were infinitely rich/I could shop every single week and still pay my bills/I had room for all the things I wanted to buy. Most of these features will be what's on the high street - mostly because that's where I shop. I'm also hoping that making a wish list will curb my craving to go shopping. Also going to include a money-is-no-object designer item.

So, I've been rather naughty and neglected this blog a little but I'm back. And thought it’d be cool to show you what I’ve been up to, at work. As you’ll know, from this post , I’m a marketing copywriter for a fabulous jewellers . And as if by some miracle, the main crux of my job description is to blog. Woohoo! It’s like a dream come true. So, here are a couple of the guest posts that I’ve done for other blogs, on behalf of T H Baker. One post is all about how I’ll be rocking maxi skirts this summer. Which, as far as I’m concerned are the go-to item for this weird we’re-not-quite-sure-if-it’s-really-summer sort of weather. They look great with just a vest top or layered up with a gilet. Anyway, enough of my yapping, you can check the post out here . And secondly, I wrote a little Graduation Gift Guide – handy for this time of year, so check it out. I feel so blessed to have walked into a job, literally 5 weeks after finishing my degree. Although, it’s more excit
