Hi there! "Thursday's Lovely Links" is a new column I'm starting that is essentially a bi-weekly roundup. Every two weeks on a Thursday, this type of post will come around where I'll be sharing my favourite posts from the past two weeks and you can tell me a few of yours in the comments. This way, we can help each other discover new blogs and it'll just be really fun. At least I think so.
This week, I picked a nice collection of posts that lead into back to school, but also help you make the most out of the last few weeks of summer. Speaking of which, how is it already the last month of such a lovely time of the year? 2014 has just gone by so quickly.

Adventures in Fashion: DIY Pierre Hardy Inspired Eye Heels
For as long as I can remember, I've had an odd fascination and thankfully, in late, so has the fashion world! This blog post shows you how to add a quirky eye to an ordinary pair of black heels to make them a little less ordinary.
I haven't gotten adequate amounts of sleep in a really long time, which is really awful, really, but there is always a positive side to everything! Obviously, I'm not trying to encourage not sleeping enough, but there are some great things that can come out of those hours you're not spending sleeping (like you're supposed to).

CloudyApples: Making a Good Impression
This is a video, not a blog post, but I thought it'd be good to include anyway. Making a good first impression or simply a good impression is something we all strive for and back to school is a time where those are crucial. I mean, who doesn't want their teacher to view them as a smart and dedicated individual or one who possesses equally admirable qualities? Of course, this can also be applied outside of school, so it's really a useful video.

The Chic Teen: Italy: The Pre-Packing "Extra Super Organization" Edition
Some of us are still trying to make something of the last bit of our summer and this blogger shows us how she likes to plan her outfits on vacation and it's honestly such a great idea. It might a bit over-the-top for some people, but for an artsy person who's an organisation enthusiast, the idea is kind of revolutionary.
