Fashion trends autumn winter 2012

This is my season for fashion and Im super excited about it!!
In the last few years iv bought very few items of clothing as the trends just weren't me!!
I didnt get the floral or the denim shirts or the leather it was all just weird to me and looked awful on me so i bought clothes from rock shops like ASHA and online things that went with my look!!
Now i feel like its my time to shine!!
The grunge look is toatlly me I love it!!
Skulls, tartan, studs, dark colours, doc martins (or my knock off docs)!
I feel ill have to stock up on items as it probably wont be around for long!!

iv included some prettier items like this flouncy little skull dress from new look

I love these stone washed red shorts and feel they will be great with docs and a skull sweatshirt

Iv started with this pair of studded docs !!

I also got this dress from new look in cream and black

I love this skull top with studs from new look

I cant wait to update my wardrobe with some of these looks!!

I love this trend and feel it covers my grunge and punk look in one!!

Diet

I decided enough was enough after putting on 1 stone in the last year and a half! I worked so hard to loose that weight for NY in 2011 and to put on nearly half of what I lost was depressing!!
I started my diet on the 18th of july but it took a few weeks to works the kinks out I lost a couple of pounds but then it just stopped comming off and I was near giving up!!!
Then I was looking through apps on my phone and I found a calorie counter so I downloaded it to my phone ... it was the best thing Iv ever done!!!!!
I added up what I calories I should be having for my weight and height and energy usage to loose weight and than I calculated what I had been eating and it turned out it wasnt good i was eating less than I had been but not to the point where I would loose weight so I redesigned my diet and this is it!!!

I feel this diet works best if your like me and you dont get up too early! I will have to change it up a bit as I will be getting up early with corey for school from next week!!
I have a low calorie cup-a-soup for lunch that's about 50-80 cal depending on the one you pick!!
At about 3 I have a cuppa tea or a low cal hot choco to keep my sugar up!! thats 30-40 cal!
Dinner is around 5 and I have what ever I like (unless im going out or going to the cinema that evening then I eat healthy)! thats usually between 700-1000 cal
For me not regulating my dinner too much works! I know through out the day I will get to enjoy a big dinner of borritos or spuds or pasta what ever I like!!!
I think if i was having diet lunch and diet dinner and everything was diet diet diet I would have given up a long time ago!!!
Then at 8 I have tea and a pink and white or lemon sorbet or a weight watchers lemon slice! its low cal but still a treat!! 100 cal
Evenings are my worst time I am a big evening nibbler all I wana do is eat so I have fruit and sometimes if im starving I have a small bowl of porridge!! 30-200 cal
so on average every day I have between 1100 and 1500 cal a day!!
And on this Diet I have been loosing 1 pound every 3 days!!
I will probably add a morning Banana into my diet 90 cal and an extra cuppa tea 30 cal as I will be getting up super early on weekdays from monday on!!
