I have no social life, but at least I have pretty clothes

Wow I'm having so much fun. Look at me and my friends in these photos having so much fun.
Life's a constant party, we're always having fun, lots of fun, see.


Facebook makes me sad.

So I'm going to spam my blog with poor quality photos of myself pulling faces in a rather pretty new acquisition of mine. Enjoy!




A smile is the prettiest thing a girl can wear, except she wears it for every one but herself.

black velvet & lace collar


Hey there lovlies! Sorry I haven't been around this past week, I started my final major project at college, which is like an eight week long exam period (and I thought gcse's were hard) so I'm gona be pushed for time these next two months, but as it's the easter hols now I'll try to fit in a few extra posts here and there.
This dress is pure magic, I'd go as far as saying it's absolutely wizard (oh as if my slang couldn't get any cooler) I'm watching Harry Potter and the half blood prince right now so I'm kinda vibing on wizardy words... I really do love this dress though, the little sparkly spots scattered on top of the velvet fabric look so enchanting under the right lighting. Initially I wore it as a going out dress but summer's on the way, and I'm guessing desperately hoping it'll be too warm to be sporting velvet, so I want to get as much wear out of it now as possible. I'm wearing it with a detachable lace collar which I made recently (and by 'made' I mean I got some lace and stitched a press-stud onto it). Pure skill there homeslice. Anywhoo, I'm off to go be wizard cool in my kitchen and magic up some chocolate covered strawberries, ooft yh, later dudes!


EDIT: The beautiful Sammy over at Sammy Scribble illustrated me, how cool is that? She's a real a talent - you can check out her post here.

peachy keen




Sorry for the blurry changing room photos (they're kind of a right of passage on style blogs) see I was way too excited not to show off my first pre-summer purchase. It's the girliest thing I've bought in years and with the ice cream colour trend monopolising the blogosphere this spring it's hard not to want to cover myself in pastel toned prettiness. But like everything I buy these days it has it's flaws; one of which is the back hook fastening which I've failed to master through all my want of trying. Another thing I bought recently was this glittery nail polish in "ice crush" by topshop. The photo doesn't do it justice at all, I've had so many compliments on it already. I had to apply about 4 coats to get an even covering but I think it looks best this way.

Anywhoo sweets it's the start of a new week, have a good 'un!

please prove you're not a robot



Not to be one to state the obvious, but isn't it ironic that a computer keeps asking me if I'M a robot?? Mmm.
Sorry for going AWOL again, I've had a pretty chaotic week sorting out bits and bobs for my portfolio deadline which was this morning. Feeling like a definite weight's been lifted off my shoulders - that was until I had to carry my beast of a portfolio to another uni interview which has left so much tension in my shoulder I'm worried I'm gona end up with a permanently slanted posture. Not kidding, check the photo above - see how my right shoulder looks slightly higher than the left? Yeahh, it's stuck like that, and that's just the product of a 20 minute walk from the station to college. Just gota keep telling myself it'll all be worth it in the end... EDIT: wow, turns out it has been 'cuz I've just received an unconditional offer from said uni, nice one, haha.

I'm one happy bunny now, ah and speaking of rabits (um, were we? oh we are now...) just wanted to say I hope everyone who went to the Juicy Couture x Fifi Lapin party had a fab time the other night. For anyone who doesn't know Fifi is a little cottontail with some super snazzy style and she's doing a collaboration line with JC, if you'd like you can check out her blog and photos from the event here.
Ciao for now lovlies!
