A personal post





Earrings- Ashleigh Wise
Jacket & Bag- Nasty Gal
Trousers- ASOS
Shoes- Topshop

Sorry it's this top and this jacket combo again but I just can't stop wearing it! I actually took these photos a week or so ago but my life has been mental this last week. I'm actually blogging right now as a form of distraction from going crazy. I don't usually openly talk about really personal stuff on my blog but here it goes..

As some of you may know if you follow me on twitter or facebook, sadly my step dad passed away yesterday after a 2 year battle with throat cancer. He had been in a coma for the whole of my birthday but being the thoughtful person he was I'm pretty sure he held on to pass away the day after. I actually never considered the fact that the cancer would come back as he was given the all clear but we found out just over 3 weeks ago it was back for good. So it's all seems to have happened really quickly which is quite hard to get my head around. Especially as this is actually the third time in just over a year I've lost a family member to cancer. 

My mum and I are trying to carry on as normal as possible at the moment as that's what he would have wanted. My perspective on life has completely changed the last year and if anything, made me more determined to make the most of life. Right now all I want to do is sleep the pain away but I know that when time starts to heal things I'm going to do everything I can to give my family and I the most colourful, happy life and to also help kick kill cancer's ass.
