How To... Avoid Growing Up

Due to the fact that yours truly is doing the big-girl adult thing and moving out in less than a year, with her boyfriend no less, growing up and being sensible is taking it's toll. I'm worrying about paying rent, how to cut down electricity bills, getting a decent part time job and wondering how the heck I'm going to fight the urge to splurge my rent money on a pair of cute Miu Miu shoes, or a Topshop spree or a life supply of jellybeans, or something.

In order to preserve my sanity, I have taken to frequently flicking through the Urban Outfitters home section, because their ranges of kitsch kitchen accessories, crazy gadgets and colourful nic nacs are cool enough to make me excited about moving on up, but without making me feel like a grown up - after all how can you consider yourself a serious adult when you have a Snoopy snow cone machine?

XOXO
