dark side of the moon

I am totally in love with Australian label Evil Twin and their newest winter collection called Dark Side of the Moon is spot on. For more photos visit their blog Platinum Evil.

that is one awesome cover photo.

another apology

sorry AGAIN for being a shit blogger, it's all paid off though I have a new job starting at the end of the month which I'm super stoked for. I've been going back & forth from London a lot recently but hopefully I'll be moving back very soon!

Anyway, last night I had the pleasure of attending an intimate Lana Del Rey set at the Jazz Cafe in Camden. To be honest, I'm not a huge fan of hers but I was offered the ticket for free (cheers Kels) and after hearing mixed reviews wanted to check out what she like IRL. I was very surprised (I think a long with everyone else in the room) but she was actually really good live! Maybe her SNL performance was just a blip? Also, she looks a lot less freaky & plastic up close. Her set was only 35 minutes long and if I'd paid to see her I would have felt a bit ripped off and she could have interacted with the audience a lot more but ultimately, I was very impressed.

i rock a lot of polka dots

i think these might just be my next purchase, pretty smart but with elasticated waist (ftw). only £14 from george at asda!

hiatus explained

SORRY ABOUT THAT. i got carried away with work/ looking for a new job/ going away and neglected to post anything, oops. SO a few things:

1) if you follow me on twitter (which you should, i tweet a lot) i hopped over the channel to spend a long weekend with my lovely french friend pauline. i had an amazing time & the weather was glorious, photos to follow when i get my film developed.

2) whilst sunbathing in parc des buttes chaumont (#smug) on sunday i finished reading patti smith's 'just kids' and i would highly recommend. such a beautifully told love story with all the real bits left in as well as an insight into patti smith's fascinating life.

3) a little off topic but next have a too-good-not-to-share collection of boots in their sale right now. all pairs shown below are between £20 and £35, you're welcome.

i'm in love with this silk map print dress from carven, if only i could afford the £455 price tag!

let me see your victory roll

my hair is a complete boring mess all the time that i can barely do anything with, however (after watching a few youtube tutorials) i managed to attempt a 1940's victory roll. as you can see i still need a bit of practise, does anyone have any tips for pulling this off with short hair?

pink, its my new obsession

jeans / george / £10.00

it's not really i just wanted to use aerosmith lyrics for the title of this post. i haven't worn jeans since 2007 (i remember because it was the day i passed my driving test) and yet last night i impulsively bought this dull pink pair. i don't know what happened i just really wanted to try them and so here we are, opinions? about the jeans that is, i'm fully aware of how awful my hair is and that i look very grumpy.

if anyone is looking for some odd (in a good way) coloured jeans then these are from george at asda and there's a few other lovely colours for only £10.00 - i was very tempted by the duck egg blue as well.

any excuse will do

i would really like an excuse to buy this lovely dress so if anyone has a wedding/ christening/ bar mitzvah that they'd like to invite me to that'd be just great.

i saw various pieces making the rounds on pinterest the other day, i literally want everything.

hey guys, i've got an announcement...

JUST KIDDING. but i think i have lost the plot, do you think as a non-pregnant person i could get away with wearing these maternity t-shirts as dresses? i reeeeally like them and they're cheap.

cross my heart

although i'm not religious in the slightest i do love a good cross, here's my current favourites from the high street. i think i might just have to get those earrings...

necklace / dorothy perkins / £6.50

 bracelet / miss selfridge / £5.00

into it

1. uniqlo high rise briefs. maybe not the sexiest underwear but i think they're pretty and probably quite flattering.

2. striped dress from new look : i just love the pattern!

3.jumper with leopard print colour from g21 at asda

4. how amazing are these liquid lipsticks from sweetpea and fay? the colours are so good and because they're liquid i bet they're really moisturising.

i really didn't want to use the word 'boho' but i didn't know how else to describe these dresses, they're not to everyone's taste but i just love them & how effortless they are to wear. i always get compliments when i wear mine (even if it is from 5 year old girls!)
