The Wanderer Returns

Hello strangers..!

It's fair to say it's been a while since I last blogged - over 16 months to be exact. 

A lot changed in my life back at the start of 2011 - I moved to London for a new job and was thrown into a new, exciting world. This meant blogging took a back seat as I explored a new city, made new friends and tried to find my feet in a new industry.

I actually don't regret abandoning the blog, as I never wanted it to become a chore, which is how I think I'd have felt about it if I'd forced myself to keep writing. But recently I've been itching to get going again. I've still been following my favourite blogs all this time, and over the past few months have been feeling the urge to get reacquainted with my keyboard!

I don't have any master plans about how often I'll blog, or what I'll blog about, but we'll just see how it goes.

I thought about deleting all my old posts and starting from scratch, as I feel like I've changed a lot in the last year or so, and I'm not sure my old posts are still 'me'. But I then remembered how much work I put in to them and I don't want that to all be wasted.

So that's it - I'm back!

It feels good to once again by writing under 'Wings To Fly'.

My First Fashion Show! Tres Excited!

Hello loves :-)

I have some very exciting news to share - this Friday I'll be attending my first ever fashion show! Needless to say, I'm a very happy and excited little bunny.

I was lucky enough to win a pair of tickets to The LOOK Show in a blogging competition being run by New Look, who'll be showcasing some of their latest pieces at the event. To enter the comp, you had to write a short paragraph on your 'Top Autumn Trend Prediction'. As is always the case with me and these types of thing I got rather carried away, and instead of just writing a short paragraph this is the entry I submitted (you can click on it to see it bigger)...

New Look must have liked it, as I got an email earlier today saying I was one of their two winners :-) I'm so excited as I can't wait to see all the clothes, and apparently there'll be some celebs there too, and I do love a good ol' bit of celeb spotting! I'll be sure to post pics on here, and obviously I'll be writing a piece for the New Look blog too, so I'll post a link to that once it's up.

So now I'm off to find a friend to go with and, most importantly, decide what to wear! Any suggestions are most welcome...
