Practical Legal Training Course

As I've mentioned previously, I'm currently in a 6 month course which is practical training in law. (hence why I cannot afford to purchase copious amounts of clothing at this point in time) Once I have completed this I can apply for admission as a solicitor in the next intake which is in February 2012.
I am loving this course so much I'll be so sad when it's over. The tutors and mentors are so lovely and helpful. They know absolutely everything and are basically walking legal dictionaries. The work we do really sets you up for the legal world I believe and prepares you for the workload. However the best thing about doing this course is the people! The other students in my group G & H are so amazing! They are all so lovely and come from all different backgrounds which makes it so much fun! We just celebrated one of the girls birthdays last night and there were so many great conversations!  Oh and did I mention there is a macaroon store only a 10 second skip and jump away? :) Have a great weekend everyone xx

OH DEAR I'M A SPEND THRIFT!




I had a tutor this week who was such a lovely old lady. She was very knowledgeable and I think it appropriate to say wise in this instance. However she was describing people and out popped the word 'spend thrift.' I suddenly thought...I think that is me...a spend thrift. I have to spend the money I earn on clothes. I have had an absolute ban on shopping for about 1-2 months and it was going so well till BAM! I went crazy this week and bought items from ZARA, TONY BIANCO, DIVA, TOPSHOP, EBAY AND MORE! I feel so guilty, hence today's post. Does anyone else get into this vicious cycle?
Well now that the damage is done what I bought are:

Tony Bianco Cooper Heels in Emerald Suede



ZARA wide strap singlet in white


Zara Hot Pink Skirt
