Creating a Header for your blog, the easy way...

Hello everyone! So if you're a regular reader of my blog you might have noticed that I have finally got myself a header and for those that don't know what that is, its basically the large picture at the top of the page. I have always admired everyone else's headers as they make your blog look a lot nicer than by just using the bog standard blogger setting, I was originally thinking of asking somebody to create me one but I was at home this morning and decided to Google how do create one for myself. 

One of the first pages that came up was one that claimed you can create a header for your blog by using the free and popular website 'picmonkey' - I was extremely chuffed when I read this since I already knew how to use Picmonkey for creating collages and editing photographs! I then simply followed their step-by-step guide on the blog post and it couldn't have been easier, I cannot believe how simple it was... 

I was always a bit dubious of whether to even attempt making my own blog header and that is why I just had to write this post and share the simplicity of creating one thanks to the 'blogguidebook'! I ended up creating two different headers for my blog and one for my YouTube channel too, all in no time at all. So, if you're new to blogging or fairly experienced but with no graphic skills like me then you are sure to love this post that guides you through the steps... And another thing that's important to mention is that the only aspect of the header that I applied which was my own was my image!

Christmas Day | OOTD 2012


Hello everyone, I hope you have all had a wonderful Christmas! I just thought I'd do a mega quick post on what I wore on Christmas day, as a family we usually dress up and I did this yet with a casual twist. 

Say hello to two of my cousins!

This was one of the pictures taken yesterday that best showed my outfit, as an overview - I wore a black jumper and jeans, which may sound uber casual but they still looked smart somehow. I think its because of the fact that they are two staple pieces in a wardrobe, a black knitted jumper and denim jeans, perhaps?  Anyway, onto the OOTD part ;-)

Black knitted jumper with diamante silver crosses on the front: Tesco - £7 (sale price)

Jeans: 'Shaper' jeans from New Look - £22.99 (current sale price, £9)

I also teamed this look with a black leather jacket and a pair of khaki boots. As I said, this is a very simple outfit yet bang on trend with the knitted jumper featuring crosses combined with a pair of skinny jeans! If you would like a 'Face of the Day' from this day then please don't hesitate to ask me in the comments below, thanks for reading!


Merry Christmas x o x o
