A Quick Little Primark Haul...

1 comment

It's been a while, since I posted a 'Primark Haul'.... 

So I thought, it was about time to of course blog for you all... What with Christmas, right around the corner it's always good to have Primark handy for cute gifts or sassy essentials.... I feel like, Primark can be very subtle at times but it can also be a very hit and miss so when it's a hit, it ends up that you buy the entire store.... Does anyone else agree with this?


With bralettes becoming the latest trend, how on earth could I resist this gorgeous nude embroidered one? It's simply stunning! 

 

Followed by, the pretty and pink version too... I simply couldn't say no!! Of course, it ended in my shopping bag too!! 


Then again, how could I skip by these cute little booties?... I'm very picky with shoes/boots and with it being chilly outside I thought it was about time to purchase a pair of slipper boots for lounging around the house. 




It seems, Christmas has become Primark's trend setter this year as Winchester has been absolutely full of a wide selection of Xmas decorations.... Including the Disney merchandise. 

How beautiful are they all?

I could spend forever walking up and downstairs spotting different pieces in Primark!! 


I guess, the saying 'Shop Till You Drop...' comes to mind with me... 

With Love.

Winter Obsessions...

1 comment

Ladies and gents, hasn't the weather all of a sudden become a little chilly?...

That's Winter calling!.... 

YAY!... 

Can you believe, it's the 1st of December on Friday? What!! It's shocking!!... 


It's been a while since I last posted a; Fashion based blog!... In all honesty, that's shocking within it's self... I guess, I have so much to share with you all these days! 


With it being an incy throw back kind of blog, I feel like it's really important to remind you all that I have now officially been blogging for just over 3 years!!.... 

It's absolutely CRAZY! 

It's mad to think, I have been blogging for a straight 3 years and I think it's fair to say that the blog has been a very big journey for myself but for those of you reading too. 

I could endlessly go on about how grateful I am for the constant support, you already know how much it means to me.

*** 

However, with Winter on the cards I thought I would reinstate my passion for Fashion and share my new Winter obsessions!!....

I have been eager for these to arrive in the post ever since the day I ordered them online and then I simply couldn't resist to wear them day in and day out.. Is anyone else, like me and finds themselves so attached to wearing something for days on end which feel like months and then you put them away in your wardrobe and completely forget about how much you were obsessed with that item?.... 

GUILTY AS CHARGED....




I'm presuming, you understand why I am obsessing now??... 

Rebellious Fashion, have their style to a tee right now!... 

Literally, obsessing!!!!..... 

Initially, I saw the cropped frilled detailed jumper and simply fell in love. The colour is stunning and the detail on the jumper is simply out of this world. 

Then I sneakily spotted the oversized cream jumper dress which wow blew my mind... 

I chose to go for slightly different colours as the colours were far too difficult to choose from...  I'm surprised, I haven't bought them both  in all honesty.... Who knows?... Next Pay-Day?... 

Without a doubt, Rebellious Fashion have hit the spot with these beautiful clothing items... 

So thank you!<3 

What's your Winter Obsession ladies and gents?... 

Much Love As Always...

Silence...

Leave a Comment


Silence, 

Did you hear something? 

SHUSH... 

It's the silence surrounding you. 

You were there, then you disappeared... Where did you go?

I'm tired of running in the silence to expect to find you. At what point do I understand there's no point in trying?

I find myself buried in your dishonesty and the silent whispers which influence the leads I follow in the hope to find you. 

To be so far, yet so near. 

I often recognise the burning sensation that swirls over and over... 

I'm so used to being on my own, yet caring so!

I find myself adapting to the quietness to distract myself from the thought of you.

The silence is drowning me, yet how do I scream? I'm tired. 

The constant blame revolves around the fingers being pointed, did you question or did you assume?

Did you question the silence?

Did you question the actions that were being made?

Or were you quick at judging rather than saving?

Sometimes, it's too difficult to fight. It's often a loosing battle. 

Can you hear the battles coming to an end?

It was an empty battlefield, the silence succeeded! 

Is there ever any peace?

Where's the saviour? 

I'm known to be the one in the wrong... 

The silence shatters, I've been quiet for far too long.

It seems, though the silence has been shattered your so far away. 

Couldn't you see, it wasn't me?

Often the silence tells the story, you just have to listen to the trapped screams of fear surrounding the shores.... 

I'm not through with fighting! 

I've been quiet for so long, do you remember the sound of my voice? 

Do I even remember the sound of my own voice?

Did you ever even hear me?

It happened way too fast, to ever be able to adapt. 

I should've removed the mask, to reveal my identity. 

It was all for you. 

The violence surrounds the silence! 

Is it the silence we should fear? Or should we fear how we allow the silence to develop to violence? 

Don't loose your identity. 

Fight the fear. 

Silence, please help me find peace!

Have I become far too trapped in what you can see but not what you can hear?

That's where you'll find me sat in silence and I shall wait here for you... 

Silence...

Wolves....

Leave a Comment


Dear Wolves, 

It's taken me a while to reach you. 

Don't make me choose! 

I've been strolling down, the darkest alleys with the hope of finding you. 

Circulating round and round, running to you! 

The questions spinning over and over... Is it you?

Falling down the darkest pathways for what seemed to be for you... 

Your fingertips at reaching point of which now seems like a blur. 

Was it a distant memory or has it become a fear?

I see the shadows chase me near, I skip the fear and pretend I'm not near!

Why do I chase you? You were never there for me. 

The tears stream day by day. How did you accept one to love and one to loose?

Drunk on my feelings, I turned to strangers and isolated faces who endlessly stare! 

Did I ever cross your mind? Did you question if I had ever thought of you? Too many times! 

You put the blame on others. It was you! 

You seem so pure, I viewed a reflection. What's drawing me in?

The wolves follow the dark side of the  moon, it seems like a jungle. I was so young and alone but I still tried to get to you. 

Nothing can ever change the hurricane which flew overhead, the same questions over and out! 

You expect me to forget, why? To pretend you were there!! With endless amounts of despair! You never were, it's a lie! 

Yet I still put my trust in strangers to get to you. Time and time again since you left I promised myself I'd never trust in you or run back to you again! 

You created so much pain and anger, yet I still feel my place belongs with you. I see so much light when I'm with you but with the flicker of a second the light fades to darkness.

Did you ever know my story? Did you ask? Did you guess? I guess you chose to read between the lines... 

With the starts far behind, but the darkness drawing near. The tears fall quickly, I imagine the life I expected with you there and the sharp hit of reality crashes against the sea wall once again. 

The silent whispers circle round the empty streets. Why did you let go?  Why did you hurt them? The blame circulates once again. I'm drowning in the pain, in the darkest of days I still did it all for you. 

We were like two moths, that were drawn to the fire. In hope to get to you! 

You questioned why I fall for the strangers who I once thought I knew. Did it occur to you, I was going trying to replace the love I had lost because of you?

I took the anger and the bitterness to try and be at ease with you.

You picture the life that's been framed with simply nothing but lies leaving your side. How can I hide?

Yes, I'd do it all for you! 

I would gladly run through the darkness in the hope of seeing you. 

Allowing you to hate me to protect you from the truth.

I'll run to the wolves to face the darkness to hope for a shimmer of light. 

The empty bottles surround the darkness, the rapid change in character. Was it me or was it you?

I clung to taking too much to restrain from seeing you.

The long list of words, the in-depth hatred from you allowed a brighter horizon for you. 

I'm not you, nor ever will be. I'm stronger, I'll fight for you. 

Why should I? To get to you... 

I try to ease the anger, I had hoped you could see through the brick walls that my heavy blue eyes and long locks remain drowning in. I had expected you to see. 

Running to the jungle had become a way for me to fade away without my Jimmy Choo's! 

Did you not question the silence? Or did the silence question you?

I still remain endlessly running to get to you following the darkest alleys to search for the shadow of you. While, you sneak back into the life you've always had. 

I often prayed the time we had spent together painted a picture of the things I'd do to have the love from you. 

Swirling over and over in the lies, what's fear or is it the scent of the New Year?

Will the Wolves ever leave me be, instead you made me choose? 

Here comes another stranger. 

Drunk on my feelings, facing the darkest journeys. 

Wolves.

TESCO STATIONERY & HOMELY BITS SPREE...

Leave a Comment

What with Christmas, right around the corner..... 

Of course, it's the perfect time to find little gifts and to spice up your office a little.! Not forgetting to glam up your household.... EEEK it's exciting!! 


Initially, when I spotted this I thought of my mum's best friend Michelle as she would love this!! Any excuse, to have a drink ha-ha! However, it's so pretty and I was super drawn to how cute it was... plus the excuse of pouring a cheeky drink or two seemed rather appealing! 


How could I have an office without a sassy notepad?...


With winter warmers being essential gifts for family and friends. How adorable is this Owl Winter Warmer?


It seems Anya Marie Ball couldn't resist the 'Selfie' photograph album! 


With travel mugs being the talk of the town or shall I say city recently?! How beautiful is this?

I must say Tesco, you have been an absolute gem with initiating my Christmas shopping and for of course breaking the piggy bank once again!!

Much Love As Always,

When I Get To Warwick Avenue...

Leave a Comment



Dear Warwick Avenue, 

It's been a while, since I saw you yet it seems like it was yesterday. Some people would say that's wishful thinking though some would say that's called being under a spell! Why wouldn't you release me? Was it being under you spell which made me, me? Or was it becoming your shadow which allowed me to see the light to notice me? Will we ever know? Has this become a journal full of thoughts spiralling round and round? I guess, it's an endless amount of questions that may never be answered... 

I'm standing up alright on my own! Though, I often heard you criticise in silent whispers when it appeared you were praising me! I become a stepping stone. 

Had I doubted myself that much to even know what were whispers and what were sweet nothings? 

In time, I hope you'll know what you did to me! Although, it's transparent you will never notice! 

I still remember the words you used to silence me, the endless promises and the sweet nothings which appeared to be our future... At what point, did you realise I would lay wide awake knowing that's all it was?... Sweet nothings.!

Time and time again, I allowed you back in to know the promises were never true. I guess the word, I am looking for is 'hope'. 

To scared to walk to the door and to know it's through. 

The cycles circulating over and over wishing that the train wouldn't come. It felt like I was never arriving but always departing. None  the less, I never wished for the train to come, as you were all I knew. 

My world metaphorically had become a train crash, though I found myself crumbling when you weren't there? Why? I often wished you would leave, then I figured that's all everyone seems to do. 

Is it a reoccurring curse?

The blame whirled round and round. I blamed you! 

The burning sensation as you walked away to know you could smell a sweet scent of success. 

Your sweet goodbye was a deadly kiss!... 

How was I meant to forget you? Who was I, without you? Everyone around me, become ghosts who appeared to be there but were they really there? Not without you, life become a blur. 

I couldn't nor wouldn't ever run back  as your love was torture but it was a torture that made me live until the end. We said our end to a goodbye a long time ago. 

Warwick Avenue, appeared to be the beginning of it all... The first baby steps, the first baby word and of course the first on-going cries as I often fell over as a child. It was time to set foot into a new world. 

To fade away from you as you're and always will be unforgettable. I couldn't allow you to stand their to enjoy watching me burn any longer. It was time to fade. 

Why does he do me that way? 

You're going down honey! 

You said you can't live without me,  so why aren't you dead yet? Why are you still breathing?  

After all the time, you still have that hold which you once requested from me. Standing by you seemed so easy, yet why was it so hard? Full of regret, empty promises and disappointment. 

Would I go through it all again, I would in a heartbeat. In order, to reach the point of where I am now and that's far away from you. 

You made me become so numb, so un-me! You trapped me in a world where I wasn't me! 

Was that your goal, to leave me trapped in a parallel world without you? Did you want me to experience the highs and the lows? Isolated from a world I loved and a place I knew! 

You lied to me, not just once but day in and day out. 

All the days we spent together and now I am finally departing. 

It seems it's been a while since I was here, round and round I would often search for the avenue until one day it hit me that I wasn't ready to depart. 

Goodbye Warwick Avenue...

Anya's Autumn Essentials...

Leave a Comment

It's officially time to welcome the colder weather into our homes... 

It's freeee-zzzinggg! 


It's been a while since, I took this selfie... To be precise it's been almost a year!... 

'I often find that the Winter months are the months where you take the time to look back and reflect on your life, don't you think?

I think it's fair to say this year  has been a roller-coaster as many things have happened throughout the beginning of this year to the present.

I specifically, thought it was time to write an 'Anya's Autumn Essential' blog as originally the blog was based around simply just fashion... I'm lucky enough, you guys allowed me to start blogging on beauty and lifestyle topics too!! 


How on earth could I head into Winter weather without a deep cherry red and a glimpse of glitter?? Err, come on Anya!! 

PS - yes that's mine and Emma's Christmas  tree in the background!! 


I mean come on, who hasn't guessed my main essential... 

Yes, of course it's annoying Emma with taking millions of Snapchats with the several different filters... Thanks love!


Would it be Autumn, without the pink cold shoulder which of course sparkles? N-O! 



My recent obsessions are of course  the corset belts!! How trendy are they right now? Oh my gosh, literally to die for!! 

I love how the corset belts are the perfect accessory in order to turn a casual outfit to a street chic inspired look! 

My favourite outfit to wear with corset belt is with a oversized jumper paired with jeans and a cute pair of platform heeled boots. It takes the look from zero to a million is about two seconds!

What I also love about pairing the corset belts with jumpers is the fact, I can get away with wearing an oversized jumper and tweaking the style with a little bit of sass but still feeling super comfortable. 




Last but not least, my adorable trendy chic faux fur charcoal black parka purchased from MissPap.... It's insanely beautiful not forgetting how chunky the faux fur hood is! 

With needing to purchase a winter coat, I couldn't go far wrong with this beauty! 



I thought I would share this selfie with you all as it sets the 'Autumn' tone! 



I must welcome Missy to our family!! 

Much Love,

Leave a Comment

We Welcome Christmas to the A & E Household...
(For those of you who are wondering what A&E stands for, it's Anya and Emma's Household!) 

Image result for November tumblr

First of all, how mesmerising is this pretty little November Tumblr photo? It's gorgeous!!

With Emma and I, still being bid kids and loving the festive seasons we fancied welcoming Christmas into our household super early... Mad, aren't we? Maybe, just simply content with still being kids ha!

So of course, we welcomed the joy into our home alongside Christmas music repeatedly playing throughout the day time and nights that have passed us by so far! 

 

Indeed, we had to take a Polaroid picture!! It wouldn't be the Christmas period without pretty and sentimental pictures spiralling around creating memories.! 


As it's November, that definitely means it's time for baggy jumpers and messy hair! 

Anyhow, with the excitement of Christmas being right around the corner Emma and I headed down to Tesco and ended up finding ourselves on a shopping spree.! Uh-oh!!!













As you can see, Emma and I raided Tesco's with the beautiful decorations above!! 

Eeek!! How exciting?? 

I won't even lie, now that I have started piecing the house together with multiple decorations it's finally time for the Christmas season!! 




With travelling to Reading on Tuesday evening, it gave me the prime time to welcome the festive spirit as the decorations and pretty lights were absolutely stunning!! 

So thank you Reading. for reminding me of how much I loved Christmas!!... 

Of course, Emma and I must thank Tesco too for providing us with  such beautiful Crimbo decorations!! So thank you Tesco!! 

I often, leave the house for work now and expect to return to  a 'Grotto'... I'm that worried, by the time I'be returned Emma has merged our beautiful home into a Grotto ha! It really wouldn't surprise me, with that one!!

With recent emails and comments I have received from you all, I knew it was time to post the Christmas homely decor blog post as from your comments it seems you have been super eager to see where I have purchased the decorations from so I hope this helps you all!! Enjoy spending the pennies and joyfully welcome Christmas into your homes like Emma and I have!! 

Much Love As Always,
