LOOK AT MY PANTS EVERYONE!

My 16 year old self would be so surprised if she could see me now - painfully shy, total geek (and not the trendy kind) and mega tomboy, living in tracksuits and doing my best to blend into the background. The thought of being the center of attention would absolutely horrify me. But I have certainly changed - I still don't enjoy being the center of attention, but I'm not afraid to wear something that is sure to make me stand out. I wear what I like and if people don't like it, they don't have to look.

I picked up these amazing twill trousers a few weeks ago in H&M for a bargain £7.99 - I love the print and how the zip fastening on the back, which gives them the most flattering fit, although I did struggle to zip them over my voluptuous bum on my own, I had to enlist the help of the boyfriend as I was way to frightened I might zip the butt skin in there, in 'There's Something About Mary' stylee.

This was worn on date night, off out for some hearty pub grub, it was fab - I do love food I do!

Printed Trousers, H&M - Same here.
Shirt, Matalan - Same here.
Studded Loafers, Matalan - Same here.

    They look crazy but in a good way :)

    I have been tempted by all these printed trousers but I hardly wear them, I have two pairs of jeggings and one pair of jeans! Maybe I should expand my small collection to printed trousers haha

    Dude. Rocking the pants. How much do you wish you could go back to your teenage self and be like 'hey, young me - stop freaking out, it all turns out ok' haha? Saying that, I doubt teenage me would have listened but it would have been reassuring to know that actually not being cool at highschool really had no impact on my life.
