friday the 13th, ha!

my friday 13th turned out to be a really amazing day!

♥ I GOT A JOB! new look rang me back and said i had the xmas temp job, i start on friday.
♥ my hair went good, for the whole day, which is an achievement in itself.
♥ i was only in college an hour, and the lesson was dead funny anyway.
♥ i had a mcdonalds happy meal, which always gives me good moods.
♥ then i had my favourite nutella shakeaholic, and got the 10th stamp on my shakeaholic card which means my next one is free!
♥ i got home and my phone couldn't be repaired after i sent it off, so they sent me a brand new one! with a gorgeous cover aswell - i didn't get one last time.
♥ had some pasta for tea made by my gran, i love it when she makes it.
♥ went to a bag, makeup and jewellery party where my mam bought me some viv westwood earrings for christmas.
♥ then had a play about with windows 7 on my new laptop, cause i got a free upgrade with my new laptop.

so all in all, a very lovely friday 13th :)

here's the outfit for the party thing..

snap happy.

my mam found me these two amazing old film cameras to play with today! i never even knew that they existed! i was so happy when she pulled them out - complete with lots of film for me to use in them :D .. i love things like that.



in answer to a comment on my post below about hair dye, i used loreal casting creme gloss, in 'plum' - but again i think i left it on for over the amount of time you need, so it's went a bit too black rather than purple ahaha :)

going grunge.

hiya everyone! :) well this weekend has been SO good, drank every night and had a laugh. we took soooo many photos but i'll pile them up in another post.
this post is about my hair, i have dyed it. i initially wanted it purple but i think i left the dye on too long and it's rather blackish with a hint of purple, it's only a 28 week one so i'll be brunette again before long.

here's some recent buys, i love them all :) first up is this t shirt. i found it in tk maxx and fell in love with it. it kinda reminds me of ed hardy and worn with my black wripped skinny jeans i think it'll look gooood :)
i got these boots from primark when i was in london, i've literally never taken them off yet. i've already scuffed the toes and battered them to bits, but i think they look better all shabby anyway. when i walk im them i sound like a cowboy with them metal spinny things on his cowboys boots, cause these jingle and clip clop :') it amuses me.
lately, i've also been wearing lots and lots of little rings piled up on the majority of my fingers. these rings are a few of my favourites. some are topshop and some are miss selfridge. the only thing is, they dye my hands blue! cause i wear them all day most days a week, oh well :')
right, the last thing i'm telling you all about in this post is my dress. i bought a dress also from tk maxx, which i think i actually LOVE. when i post a picture you'll see what i mean, it's devine! it's black, futuristic and covered in spiky studs. the only thing is, that it's a bit long. so i'm going to whip out the sewing machine and alter it - i'm so excited to see what it'll look like :D

so, purchases.. what do you think ? xxxxxxxxxxx

P.S. thank you to the two girls that i've recieved an award from :) ..don't worry i'll do that post later on and i'll link back to your blogs all properly and things, but now, i think i need sleep. i was up till 7am this morning before i got to bed! ahaha.

london - day one.

okay, so i should be doing some work.. but my blog has been neglected and i need to post about london and show you some of the pictures that i took - here's day one!

i went with my parents, my brother and some family friends at the weekend for a mini holiday - to experience as much london stuff possible that we could fit in!

so first of all we got the train down from durham, and arrived in king's cross, i was extremely disappointed to find out that they've taken away the harry potter 9 and 3/4 platform sign thing!! haha i loved that last time i was there.

then we put our cases in the hotel, and had a walked around mayfair (that's where we were staying) - just up the road from the ritz! my first day outfit was this... leather jacket: bershka, top: topshop, skirt: new look, tights: primark, belt: vintage, necklace: muse, bracelets: primark + pandora.

then we went for a gorgeous meal in grace, and went for a wander and a shop.. we got lost first of all, then i stumbled across urban outfitters, god i love that place!!

trying to figure out where leicester square was!

i got dragged out of here :'( .. i didn't want to leave hahaaa.

then we finally went to leicester square to get some cheapish west end show tickets, we got some for blood brothers. i studied the play for my english coursework last year so i wanted to see it actually performed on stage. it was amaaaaaazing!

then we went for another little wander and came across this row of shops, i was in actual heaven. tiffany's, chanel, mcqueen, d&g, ysl ..the lot!


and, it is here where i fell in love...

with this BEAUTIFUL alexander mcqueen bag! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
we then did a little more wandering about and taking in sights before heading back to the hotel to get ready to go and see blood brothers.

here's us in the lift of the hotel heading to the phoenix theatre :)

after the show we walked the long way back to the hotel to see london at night. for a laugh, we decided to walk through soho.. we went past all the nightclubs and bars.. god there were some sights to be had there! ahahaha :') i think we were all in shock. it was so loud and lively.

my night time outfit was this... tights: h&m, skirt: primark, dress(worn as a top): triple s, jacket: zara, necklaces: topshop + muse, shoe boots: topshop.

please ignore my hideous face!
i'll upload day two and three soon! xoxoxoxo

sorry for the lack of posts.

i'm still so busy with college work and things. i'll rack enough up enough banter for a decent post soon i promise - but in the meantime, here's my graphics homework we had to "doodle on a piece of A4 about things that define us".. i thought it turned out quite good, well alright.

Sunday 13 September 2009

can you tell?..

that i'm doing everything i can to distract myself from writing this essay (that's in for tomorrow) .. so here's an outfit post haha!!
Photobucket
shirt: primark, vest: topshop, leggings: bay, shoes: primark.

okay, and here's a problem.. that i need some help with. as you can see, the way i hang/store my necklaces is a DISGRACE. and it always takes forever to untangle them. i was thinking of hanging hooks from the shelf above to hang my favourite ones on.. what do you think? will it look good? or just stupid? haha :) let me know - it's getting on my nerves.

there's a drumming noise inside my inside my head, that starts when you're around.

i've had the greatest day today, i'm in such a good mood. i think it was the glorious sunshine, putting on my new tights for the first time, feeling different to usual (i had my in my extensions for the first time in public haha) and that me and charlotte went back into our secondry school to see all of favourite teachers (and to get help on this media essay lets be frank :P hehe).

we went to see mr. hindle first.. MY FAVOURITE TEACHER EVER! even though we only had him for the the last six months of year eleven, he got me my two english grade A's and i'm forever grateful. he's one of those teachers who you want as your uncle or something, he actually cares about you and how well you do, never tells you off, has his own funny little ways (like loving his hometown, preston and always talking about his gorgeous little girl harriet and his new baby son elliot born on august 15th 09 - he's lush i've seen a picture)

so shout out to mr. hindle, the greatest english teacher. wahoo ;)

then we went to see all our other favourites and then went to the deli for a delicious sandwich and then we walked to charlottes to sit out on the pub roof in the sun and start our essays, i didn't get to far though :') haha.

after that i went to durham with my mam and brother, we just strolled around the little shops and i spent a considerable amount of time in topshop. the only bad thing was the fact that they didn't have the shoes i want in my size, but hey i'll get them soon enough.

sorry i've blabbed in this post, i've just loved today ♥

there's my extensions even though they look dead, and my topshop tights XD haha. and here's some shoesss (£60) and a bag i want badly both from river island suprisingly - i don't get much from there. the shoes i've tried on lots and fell in love with, and i was drawn straight to that bag from across the shop. the studs, union jack, snake skin, tassles and buckles all on one bag (♥!) it's £30 but i'm considering it.

some spain pictures finally.

because i need to put them somewhere :) i thought most of my holiday photography would be bright colours and vivid, but thats not how wuite a few have turned out. they're muted colours and dark.. it's strange when the sun was pelting down 12 hours of every day there. oh and by the way this is just a few, i figured there'd be far too many to put in one almighty long post, so i'll put another few up each time i do a boring post :)
