STYLE S.O.S | 25 days UNTIL CHRISTMAS| BLOGMAS

It's the first of December, I can't believe Christmas has come back around that quickly I usually put our tree up on the first, but this year I realised we actually threw our tree out, so I'm hurriedly trying to find a decent replacement. 

I am more of a last minute shopper. Each year I promise I will change, and this year I might have converted. I bought the children a few things I saw on discount during the purge also known as Black Friday. 

My sleeveless jacket is frequently making an appearance when I have the school run or quick errands... Basically when I know I won't have to wear it long enough to freeze. I love the length. I also love an all black outfit. I don't usually wear my timberlands, which hurts my boyfriends feelings as they were a gift from last Christmas, but although they look cute and Tom-boyish, they feel extremely heavy on the feet. My extreme ripped black jeans are not for everyone but they are all that fits me right now lol. I hate wearing ripped jeans amongst my elders because I know they will be a "who tore those" joke thrown in there somewhere. 

I have decided I will in corrolation to doing my #mumstylechallenge be doing blogmas, and posting everyday. I may also be in the Christmas spirit and do a blog giveaway. Who's already got their Christmas sorted?

STYLE S.O.S | 30 days until Christmas

I love Thursday's because they signify that the week is almost over and I can have a mini lie-in during the weekend.

 Continuing on with my challenge and I have made it to day two, I had quite an active day, I signed Logan up to weekly swimming lessons,  today was his  second. I want him to be a confident swimmer and it's a great way to bond with him without the distraction of my phone or television. 

The lesson went swimmingly - pun intended,  until one overcautious mother made me paranoid, it always amazes me that some mothers will think of the worst case scenario, and share it with other mother's knowing what effect it will have, but adding "I don't mean to scare you"...of course you don't Sandra,    but I'll save that rant for another post. 

He is becoming used to the water. So many child parent activities involve a lot of fake smiling and singing to your children, to reinforce happiness and positivity, by the time I'm finished my cheeks hurt. 

 As I was going to be in the water with him I did my hair in a side braid and was so pleased with the curls it gave my hair when I came out.  The weather wasn't as extreme as it was this past weekend so I was able to get away with a leather jacket, I threw on a game of thrones slogan t-shirt, and some black jeans and wedge sneakers. Quite a simple and practical outfit. Click the links below to shop a similar style. I'm going to sign off and prepare for the madness that is black Friday.
