Guess Who's Back!

Hello you adorable, lovely lot!

I'm back; I've pulled up my socks with cats on, dusted off my blog and here I am ready to make it into everything I always wanted it to be!

This blog will now be an extension of myself- of my think-box
(or brain to normal people). I want to write about things that make me sad, happy, excited, angry & enigmatic. I want to write about days out, movies I've seen, dates I've been on and bloody great bargains I've found. 

Finally I'll actually do it, I'm not embarrassed to be totally transparent anymore.  

SO, A re-introduction of myself:

Hello, My name is Josephine. You can call me Josie. I'm 21 soon to be 22 in August and I'm a single independent woman paying my own damn Netflix. I'm obsessed with cats, I say hello to the same 5 every morning when I walk to the station. I also really really really love garlic. Garlic on everything.

I've attempted many careers in my short live thus far; Shop Assistant, Seamstress, Theatre Tech, Waitress, Musician, Teaching Assistant & Photographer. I've finally settled into something I really really love; Hairdressing.

I worked at Not Another Salon for half a year and It was interesting to say the least, but it gave a me a good nudge into the world I now know and love. I'm now at home at the wonderful Rockalily Cuts, training as a proper apprentice hairdresser and loving every second. 

I'm sure I'm not amazing at it all just yet, like many things in general. I still can't boil rice. That's a bloody skill that is. I'm just trying to get all of this adult-y stuff figured out y'no?

Fancy Joining me?

My Week in Photos | #1

Hello everyone!

I've been super busy sewing all week so no amazingly planned post! I thought i'd just post a few photos of my week for you!

Loki's 1st Birthday

Loki turned 1 on Monday! It's not his actual birthday but It's the day we got him.. It actually hurts my heart to see how big he's gotten, HE WAS SO TINY!

Sister Sister

I went to stay with my Sister for a little while this week because it's nice to get away and do no work for a bit! We hang out & Mooched in TKMAXX which is always good. Love a good mooch we do.

Sew on Sew Forth

I love this pattern that I got home to! I'm so excited to sew it I'm going fabric shopping after work this weekend to get the Red stripe outfit!!

Funkadelic

This is a commission I worked on last week for a friend, She wanted something really 1990's for a Festival and she was so happy with it! It's not quite my style but I have to say it's very cute! I also made a matching throw over blouse too!

Spring has Sprung

How lovely are these blossoms? I stopped whilst walking to the shop to take this pic after hesitating...it was too pretty to pass up even if there was a man watching me take the picture from a weird angle hahaha

Old is New

Me and my Mum went through a load of old sewing & knitting equipment and supplies on Thursday, She gave me all of these cotton reels for my sewing. Some of them were my Nanny's which is cool and cute!

Denim Dreams

This jacket was another treasure me and my mum dug out, It was my sisters when she was 15! It was very trendily bought from New Look's 915 Range in probably around 2002 haha! It fits like a glove & I LOVE IT.

Just a few photos, Let me know if you liked this because I'll happily do more posts like this :)
