i know, you've been alone

for too long.

so here's a few things i've bought recently... i'll do an outfit post when i come back from spain. i'll only be gone a week. first of all.. i finally got a vivienne westwood necklace, i love it! i got the purple one, since thats my favourite colour and we're going into autumn soon. i got it cheaper too. it was meant to be £70 but i ebayed it for £16.99! its not fake either, it came with a real box and real tag - i was chuffed.
then i got a real leather jacket too, from bershka, i love it.. its dead soft and nice. the photo doesn't do it justice though :/ never mind.

now i'm off to spain! see you in a week lovey's ..x x x x x x x x x x x

i'm just like the happiest kid ever right now!

here's a birthday-money-shopping-trip post! .. (it might be quite a long one too hehe)

guess what i finally got after weeks and weeks of harping on about them?.. my TOPSHOP ANKLE BOOTS , aaaaaaaaah XD ♥ - i think i'm in love.

but i'll get to them in a bit.. so anyway first of all this morning i bought a '16th birthday' teddy charm for my pandora bracelet :) .. my birthday bear, cause i like all the charms to mean things to me.

then me and my mam went shopping this afternoon - and i rushed straight round to topshop. because the two previous topshops i'd been in didn't have my boots in - because they're now discontinued D: ..so i thought i wouldn't be able to get them. BUT luckily they had one pair in my size and i grabbed them :P hahahaa <3

also from topshop i bought this top.. and those tights (i thought they were dead cute).

then i found some EFFY JEANS (from the post below)! in h&m and they were a tenner cheaper than the ones that used to be in topshop.


and don't worry about the black and white pictures, it's a black and white outfit.
so you're not missing much in the colour department :) - it's all good hahaa.

i'll post the rest later of my shop.. because i'm really tired, night night xxxxxxxxxxxxx

birthday weekend!

okay, so this weekend has been soooo hectic, on the 15th it was nile's birthday. so everyone gathered round his house and partied until the early hours of the morning, which then turned into my birthday on the 16th.

but anyway, nile's 18th was great. catching up with everyone i haven't talked to in ages and ages, it's made me miss the summer of 2007 when we all used to go out and actually have lifes and enjoy ourselves - god some funny times :') i might upload some pictures from that summer later on. for the crack you know ;)



then i finally got home and got a few hours kip before i woke up on the morning of my birthday :) i got some money off my mam and the sims 3 off my brother. then we went for a family meal to durham, it was lushhhhhhh mmmm. after that i chilled until all the girls came over to sleep last night.



so all in all.. a GREAT weekend.

don't you know who you are?

your my shooting star.
air traffic - shooting star

and guess how many shooting stars i saw last night?! loads and i absolutely loved it.

but at first i thought i'd missed them all or something, everyone on facebook was saying.. "oh my god! i have seen 7 shooting stars" and "OH MY GOD i just saw a meteor!" i wanted to see some too. i thought i'd missed them all.. i was looking out of my window but it was cloudy.

by this point it was past midnight and i was gutted. my brother was in my room playing on his nintendo ds, so i figured i wouldn't disturb him and went to have a spy out of his room.

i'm so glad i did, because there are no streetlights blinding the starry sky through his window. so i sat on his floor and waited and watched - and i saw one! it was only small but really fast and was gone in an instant. i yelled for dominic to come and look but when he came to see no more happened.

so i forced him to sneak out of the house with me, past my sleeping mother in the next room, down the stairs and out of the back door - into the garden. then we lay on top of the trampoline until one o'clock in the morning watching all the shooting stars, singing 'twinkle twinkle' to see if they would start shooting :') haha, it worked once! it was an amazing night so sooo special to me,
i don't know why.



i took a photo of us on the trampoline (sorry from my phone again) to remember the night by. we look a disgrace but it was 1:04am! hahaaa, dominic looks shattered and i'm a rabbit caught in headlights but i love it ♥

& hiyaaa! to all my lovely new followers, can't believe i have sixty of you :) thank you lots and lots x x x

the biggest one of the left hand side is called ruby - i want to be her! she's my favourite. the girl with the camera is karli as is the girl with the yellow flowered headband. and the girl with the red and black flowers on her top is named gemma. then of course, there's a kate moss sketch in the bottom right of the picture. i tried to find a one called sophie.. but i'm still searching haha :) ♥ x

from an afternoon in the garden.


these photos were from the other day (sorry about the phone quality pictures) when me and my brother spent the afternoon chilling in my nana's garden. i don't know why but i've always loved that garden.. it used to seem sooooo big when i was little, but it's a lot smaller now. i still love all the different flowers and plants, the two old sheds full of everything and the greenhouse that grows all sorts. you usually find dominic my brother in the big shed, making whatever he can from little scraps of wood and i'll be sitting behind the little shed relaxing :)

that battered up elf statue thing is charlie, he's been in the garden since i was about three, and we used to paint him different colours every few years, but he's got slightly neglected lately.

here's some pictures of the green house and the shed :) i know they're boring but i love it!
theres something about my nana's garden that i absolutely love. the flowers and little ornaments dotted around and there are always cute animals popping into the garden too - there were loads of little white butterflies the other day, once there was a huge peacock on top of the shed and there's sometimes little brown rabbits and squirrels too ♥ i love it.

most successful shopping trip in a long time.

and i can't quite believe it haha : usually when i go out to buy certain things.. they never fit, they aren't in my size or they just aren't there all together - but this time was actually a good shop!

first of all i finally got my 'kiss of the vampire' top from topshop, i love it loadsss! and i went for the £25 topshop denim skirt aswell.. but i found one very similar for £10 in the topshop sale.


(i think im just going to cut the bottom of the skirt off and fray it a bit - you know, make it look distressed haha)

i found another sale item that i had wanted when it was full price.. this multicoloured dress (i'm going to wear it on holiday) oh! and i needed a new white vest top for my holidays so i bought this cute one, also from topshop.



i got some new acid wash jeans (which i'm also going to wrip up) from primark, a beach t-shirt and some bleached shorts from the zara sale...

and then the accessories, i got some little navy + gold sandals from accessorize (also in the sale) and finally some - in my opinion - gorgeous sunnies in the river island sale, HOWEVER.. they are actually men's.. i liked the men's selection of sunglasses better than the womens hehe.
i think i'm sorted, for now ;)
I'VE JUST REALISED THAT I HAVE 41 FOLLOWERS OH MY GOD, wow !! ♥ xox
