My EBAY bargains...

I felt like such a Miserable Mary opening my wardrobe doors this morning. 
I'm SO SO bored of my clothes. 

 I just wish I could give all my clothes away to charity and start fresh. A massive London shopping spree (preferably with an unlimited budget). How perfect would that be? A whole wardrobe filled with NEW clothes, organised neatly, and all with tags on. But anyway, enough of the dreaming and feeling sorry for myself. Ebay is there for a reason, therefore I decided it was time that I made use of it. 

If I want new clothes then it's only right that I sell some of mine (stop being greedy Kirsty). Now, who DESPISES Januarys long old wait to get paid? If like myself you are counting the seconds days until PAYDAY then you might want to check some of these bargains out...

The bids all end this Saturday and each garment has £2.99 added on the below prices for standard delivery.

I've also put a few other bits on but I thought I'd just include my favourites in this post. It is going to be sad to say goodbye to these garments but I'm sure I'll be smiling when shopping for new ones! 

I can't wait to freshen my wardrobe up and I really can't wait for January to be over. Also, if I can help cure some other girls January blues with these bargains then that will be the icing on the cake.

Anyway, have a lovely evening everyone and feel free to purchase all some of the above! 

Help a Sister out!

Oh so hidden...

Photographs and words really do fascinate me. I'm one of those people who look into everything and for me, a photograph symbolises so many different things. Why is she looking over there? What is she looking at? Who is she waiting for? Where is she going? There are endless unanswered questions and this allows us to be imaginative, to decide on our own answers, to create a story that only we can see. 


Why am I blabbering on about photographs? Well, words fascinate me in the exact same way. If you look deep and beyond a sentence, a phrase, a word, there is so much more than you ever imagined. When you see Wardrobes.And.Recipes what do you see? Do you just see your messy old wardrobe with your Grandma's vintage recipe book, or have you searched beyond the words for hidden symbolism? 

Right, lets tell you why I decided on 'Wardrobes.And.Recipes' as my blog name; and believe me, it wasn't easy! 

WARDROBES

Fascinating little things really, aren't they? Each day you open them up to discover all your beautiful and old clothes just staring at you waiting to be displayed to the world. I believe the contents inside a wardrobe represent the owner to a T! Clothes can not only allow a person to express themselves but they help to create a persons identity.

The reason for choosing the word 'Wardrobe' is because they store the key to being YOU. If you want to be adventurous and go wild you can. If you want to play safe and be subtle you can. If you want to be lazy and whack on your onsie you can

Be Bold. Be Subtle. Be YOU.

My life will be complete when I own a Carrie Bradshaw wardrobe.
RECIPES

50g of this, 100g of that...
Recipes are a little bit too precise for my liking. Is it just me or do you feel a tad bossed around when reading them? What I love doing is mixing and matching...I love being creative therefore in the kitchen I am known for going a little crazy. If I want to throw in some brazil nuts(even though they weren't stated on the recipe) then I will do! If I want to drown my cakes in icing (because my sweet tooth took control) then I will do! Basically what I'm trying to say is that recipes are only there for guidance...they get you started but you must add your own unique, tasty touch. 

Therefore in my eyes, wardrobes and recipes both symbolise individuality. They both allow you to express yourself in any way that you choose. Wear whatever you like, add whatever you fancy, just be unique, and more importantly enjoy being YOU. 

OH and obviously I'm a BIG (I repeat) BIG lover of clothes and food...
