Love to Layer!

Hello! Happy Burns Day! Even though it was yesterday, anyway...

Where I live we've been hit with the snow, just like loads of places in the UK at the moment, sadly my school wasn't closed though. :( After I post this I'm going sledging with my lovely friends, I'm so excited haha, we haven't had snow like this in two years!

So when the weather's like this I like to layer up all of my outfits as it looks cute and quirky but I still keep really warm! I thought I'd share with you how I layer my looks, I hope you enjoy! As a side note, sorry for the bad camera work, I'm working on it! All of these pics were on my mum's iPhone as my camera was out of battery, me being unorganised as usual! 

No.1: I find one of the best ways to layer is just popping a basic shirt under everything! It gives off a really cute, preppy look. I love the shirt underneath this stripy dress. It's a tad short so I wear thick ribbed tights. Its still the middle of January so I've still got my Christmas beanie on. I think it makes the outfit look more relaxed.

No. 2: If I fancy a change I'll add a jumper on top of the dress and shirt, I actually prefer the outfit with the extra layer. I like how the jumper kind of cuts the dress off at the wrong place as it looks a bit different. To keep me cozy I added my parka jacket from a couple of years ago. I wear this all the time because it has a really warm lining and cozy fur hood! 

Dress: Johnnieb @Boden // Shirt: School shop // Tights: H&M // Jumper: Jack Wills // Parka: Topshop // Hat: Primark //Doc Martens // Socks: Tiso

No. 3: This is another shirt and dress combo, I've kept the same shirt but I've put my mossy green, speckled dress on. I bought this dress in a bigger size so that it's really slouchy. This outfit is quite casual so when I go out (example: out for dinner) I'd add my leather jacket. It adds an edginess and more dressed up look which I love! As a head accessory I put on my knitted headband which I'm in love with, one of my favourite christmas presents.

Dress: Topshop // Leather Jacket // Shirt: as before // Headband: Jack Wills

No. 4: This is the most causal outfit. I think the colour of the jumper, and the purple jeans go really nice together and the jumper is quite bright so the white shirt looks good under it to tone the look down a bit. Again, the parka keeps me cozy and is perfect when I go out for walks- the perfect time to wear this outfit! Do you like my brooch? It says "Don't Forget" on it and is made from completely recycled materials! Sadly I can;t remember the name of the company that made it..

THE POST I SOPKE ABOUT IN MY LAST POST

I'm going to make some changes, for one I will try and blog once a week at least. I'm also going to try and show my outfits more, on my old blog I used to never be bothered to show them, oddly enough though it's OOTD posts that are my favourite and I'm going to start by writing posts that I'd enjoy reading. If more people come to join the party then I will blog about things that we will all enjoy! I hope that's okay. 

So, here are some factoids about me: 

1. My first name is Flora and my middle name is Bella, I love my name though it does bring up a lot of references to butter. You'll either get that or you won't.

2. I am 14 years old on the 11th of May. Woopwoop!

3. In relation to the last fact, I am 5ft 8. Which is extremely tall for my age but it's really good! I can get up to the tallest shelf in my workshop class and everybody thinks I'm 18. I also have size 8 feet, I'm a blooming giant...

4. I'm a basketball player and  I have trials for the National Squad in March, I'm a bit nervous...

5. Tumblr is one of my many obsessions. http://floflo-florab.tumblr.com < followers welcome!

6. I like One Direction. My favourite songs are Kiss You, What Makes You Beautiful and I have a soft spot for Harry, I'll leave a little picture for you...

7. My favourite blogs to read are FashionRocksMySocks, and SheWearsFashion. I highly recommend you check them out.

8. I am currently reading The Perks Of Being A Wallflower by Steven Chbosky. So far I'm really enjoying it.

9. Flowers are all over a lot of my things, maybe it's because of my name and flowers are just planted into my brain, see what I did there?

10. I have no idea what I want to do when I leave school but I would love to be a model. Wouldn't it just be amazing? I'm not sure if that'll happen though.

I hope you enjoyed this, please follow my blog if you did! 

This really makes me smile :) Bye!

SCRATCH LAST POST!

Hey guys, I've decided to scratch the old post and stick with this blog. This has posts from 2008 or something and I'd like to keep all of my posts together. So, in a few years I can look back and see how my blog developed!
Sorry for confusion guys!

I posted on the new blog that I had but since I'm going to delete it I thought I'd post it on this blog. It just gives you a little insight into me! I hope you enjoy. xo

PLEASE READ THIS!

Hey everyone! I hope you had a nice Christmas!
I am writing this to tell you that I have started a new blog, and I will be writing on it instead of this one. I just think it would be better to start fresh since it's a new year and I hope you will follow me on my new blog. Thankyou for being brilliant followers and hopefully I'll see you over at http://florasbloggings.blogspot.co.uk.

Bye! x
