Happy Birthday To Me - Third Thursday Threads Linkup

08:00


TTT Theme Blanket Scarves
Cliché as it may sound, I genuinely didn't feel as anxious about my birthday this year.  Normally I have a 'pity me' rant/freakout.  For my 30th I even ran away to Barcelona to avoid the subject!  I am now the grand old age of 32 and couldn't be happier!

Part of building a blog is to gain exposure.  I'm doing this through my Facebook page and also via selected linkups with more established bloggers.  Briana from Work Clothes I Suppose runs a linkup each month called 'Third Thursday Threads.  Ok. so its now the 4th Thursday but hey I've never done on time!  The aim is to have a theme that all of the linked up bloggers stick with and this month's was the Blanket Scarf.

I didn't actually have a blanket scarf and whilst buying one for the link would be totally counter productive to my student budget, I was browsing the Mango website the other week for Christmas presents and needed something to push me over the 'free delivery' quota.  With it co-incidentally being my birthday I decided to treat myself to this beauty

Scarf (exact)


Now as I said I've never had a blanket scarf before.  I didn't quite anticipate how big it was going to be :-/

Yes, I am holding it up.  My arms are stretched up 
above my head and a little bit of the scarf still 
overlapped - I am a shortarse though
The outfit before the scarf
Jeans (exact)
Top (smiliar)

Belted - I'd never thought 
about wearing a scarf this 
way but might do it again :-)

The downside of wearing 
this particular scarf belted is 
that it engulfed my arms :-(


It was too bulky to wear as a
conventional scarf too

All in all the photo descriptions make it sound like I should return the scarf, but it is so cozy warm and I love to wear it wrapped around me like a blanket whilst studying so it is staying living with me!!!
