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!!!
