Fashion Friday #1

Recently I have been loving anything that is forest green. When I was in Topshop last week I happened to have spotted some dark green jeans. As soon as I saw them I knew they would be coming home with me.

They are the Moto forest Joni jeans, super skinny, soft and super high waisted and I personally think flattering on. They have no pockets at the front which I like but have two pockets on the bum. This style also comes in other colours and I wouldn't mind trying out a light blue shade for the spring. I got a shorter leg in these jeans as I wanted them to sit right on my ankle as I thought it looked better.

I love these jeans and at the moment I would style them with a crop jumper, a statement necklace and ankle boots. I think these jeans will carry me through into spring, if turned up at the bottom and worn with a floral cami.

Hey Guys!


Hey everyone, welcome to my blog!

I’ve been planning to write my own blog for quite some time now, so as we have started into a new year I thought this would be the best time to start something new.  I’m Alex Paden, 17 years old and I live in Newtownards, which is a small town in Northern Ireland. After 12 years at being in the same school from when I was 5 to 16 I knew I needed a change so decided to study at college for 2 years. I am currently studying a Business course which I really enjoy, and in 8 months’ time will be heading off to University.  I am really excited for this new opportunity and can’t wait to meet new people, move away from home and live in a completely new place and of course study!  


As a self-confessed shopaholic I will include anything and everything from what trends and styles I love to my favourite beauty/skincare products, but I will mainly be writing about lifestyle related things. I’m excited about getting this going finally and I really hope you enjoy reading it.
