Leggy blonde.

Well, I am not so leggy to be honest - never have been. But more recently I have been starting to experiment a bit more with statement tights and I really like how they can instantly change an outfit.

Here are a dotty pair from Primark that I wore the other day:

I wore them with a topshop tee and high-waisted shorts from Miss Selfridge and I think that they made the outfit really fun.

I'm not used to drawing so much attention to my legs as they have always been a problem area but once I got used to the occasional person's eye darting at the pattern I found myself getting extremely comfortable. But now we have a problem - I just can't stop wanting more...

I want, I want, I want, I want, I want!!

This last photo is my favourite and it really makes me want that denim skirt. I am looking at it as more of an investment - a skirt that goes with everything and is suitable for all seasons is definitely a worthy one.

Sorry I haven't been blogging as regularly recently. I had a big exam yesterday morning but now that is well and truly out of the way. I also got some brilliant news today. I have been accepted onto the Broadcast Training Programme for the Olympics next year, which means my initial application was successful and I am through to the next stage. If I get the job then I will be gathering news at the Olympics which makes me very excited. A good stepping stone in my journalism career.

There's nothing like lots of Diet Coke and good news to bring you out of your celebrations hangover.
