Not much of a productive day apart from nipping to Asda to get some shopping, trying my hardest to be healthy but my willpower is the worst and I could eat for England but I think I've done okay today! Brushed my teeth already so i hopefully won't be tempted to eat anything now haha I'm in bed right now too, considering I have to start work at 8am tomorrow because i didn't want to work a night shift! Comprises eh!? Anyways after I'd been to Asda I was bored and decided to be vain and try posing for Instagram, I'm the least vain person in the world but I like posing now and again! Bought some pastel hair colour sprays yesterday and tried the pink one out today as a test and I would need alot more time to let it dry into my hair before I went anywhere as I brushed my hair and it all came out pink in my brush ha! Oh also my mini Lady Million Paco Rabanne sprays came the other day as well as my Mac Kohl Liner. Just 3 more purchases I'm waiting on and then I'm not shopping` for the rest of the month! My bank suffered enough I think...

So that's pretty much the day done! I'm now going to relax in bed and listen to Ellie Goulding and Young Kato whilst playing some Pokemon.

Hope your day was just as interesting if not better!

Keep Your Distance.






Tie Dye Dress - Primark (£10)
Chelsea Ankle Boots - Ebay (£25)
Disco Pants - Ebay (£7)
Missguided Coral Peplum Top inc. Belt- (£13.99)

If you read my previous post I talk more about these pieces in detail, I just thought I would show you guys what the outfits look like on! I wasn't sure about the peplum top at first, as it seemed quite small when I was looking at it on its hanger this morning, however after trying it on with my disco pants (a key piece in my wardrobe), I feel like it would be a good party outfit! That tie dye dress is tote's amaze-balls too, I absolutely love it! Feel slightly hippy but i'll be wearing it all summer long (washes in-between wears of course!) either my blue wedges or summery sandals!
Not exercised at all today, which has kinda left me feeling all in huff, but I woke up late this morning so it put everything back for me! Just goes to show its best to wake up early! I think I'll do some squats and ab exercises when I get in from work later before bed!

Primark & Missguided.










Leopard Print Brief Set - Primark (£6.00)
Mint Bra - Primark (£5.00)
Pink Lace Bra - Primark (£5.00)
Striped Nautical Bra - Primark (£6.00)
"Drop Out" Tie Dye Vest - Primark (£5.00)
Tie Dye Midi Dress - Primark (£10.00)
Coral Peplum Top inc. Skinny Belt - Missguided (£13.99)

Primark is such a bargain! I don't care how many times I say it! I love that place! My main go to for lingerie and I can't believe the Midi Tie Dye dress was only £10! Fell in love as soon as I laid eyes on it! Pair it with some blue wedges and a bowler hat I think. Definitely a key holiday piece when I'm in Greece in 96 days! Can't wait to get my tan on! Loving the colour of the Missguided Coral Peplum Top too, the belt being included is a great extra! Will be pairing this with my trusty disco pants and my thick heeled Chelsea Boots for a night out soon!

P.s. I got shortlisted to the top 25 for a modelling competition in Manchester for OMG Fashion! I'm excited but also slightly nervous for it! I know there will be plenty of skinner and prettier girls! Thankfully I can take a friend so makes it a teeny bit less scary! In 2 weeks so better get thinking of my casual model outfit!

Wish me luck!

A Pretty Good Monday.











Faux Leather Jacket - Internacionale (£24.99)
Hey! Jumper - Internacionale (£19.99)
Black Skinny Jeans - Primark (£7-£8)
Brown Cowboy Boots - Primark (£12)

Jeez my face sure is funny... Anyway it's actually been a pretty good day today considering its a Monday! Not like I work Mondays but I do Tuesdays so I still get Monday blues, sort of.

So spent the day with my sisters and mum in the town centre, it wasn't too bad weather wise, just a cold wind blowing now and again! Wish I'd paired my snood with this look though.

So we went to open a savings account for me as I'm saving up for my own flat! Didn't realise you had to make an appointment but booked in anyways for tomorrow morning. Exciting stuff! Probably take me a few years but I'll hopefully keep at it! Then we had a pub lunch, tried to be good and not have anything heavy, though i did steal an onion ring from my sister haha.

Purchased a few things from the wonderful world of Primarni (Primark) and a Missguided delivery arrived today. Next post will be a little haul of what I got!

Introduction.


“What is this?”
Well, you’ve just stumbled upon Chocolate&Chains..
My name’s Leandra, I’m 21 and I live in Sheffield, UK. Many of my posts are about fashion, food, fitness (the 3 f’s) and life in general, including my photography. The goal of this blog is to share what I’m currently thinking about in terms of trends, or an accessory, street fashion, or something that I’ve seen on television or a magazine. Also my daily workouts and my journey to being a healthier version of me. Who doesn’t love talking about relationships and love life’s right? Well there will be some of that too. I’d much rather share with strangers then actual friends or family, I don’t know why, its just the way I am!
I hope you enjoy my blog and follow me if you like.
