love, love me do. you know, i love you.

we got a snow day off school today, hooray!! also, my mum just got a text from my school to say that school is closed again tomorrow too. happy days :) my dad brought me a cup of tea this morning, i pulled on my cable knit jumper, got back into bed and watched control. now i'm just listening to the velvet underground and text messaging a friend.Photobucket
and here is the much awaited post of purchases, ha. penny loafers from topshop -which i bought with my own money, i must add-, an oversized cream blouse from new look and a maroon peter pan dress from topshop which i plan on wearing with the loafers when i go to dinner with all my friends for christmas celebrations.

enjoy the snow, love.

nothing lasts forever, except and you and me.

love will last forever, between you and me.
you are my mountain. you are my sea.
i went to see Biffy Clyro last night. they were fucking amazing. the setlist was beyond any level of greatness i could ever imagine and simon has died his hair back dark and it makes him look soooo nice. we (me, clare and calum) stood right down the front and then it got crazy. i couldn't breathe, got head-butted by this big guy, threw up in my mouth a couple of times but i survived my first mosh put. ha! all the songs were so unbelievable wow, i can't pick a favourite. oh, and at the end, scott bought me a Biffy Clyro poster. great night.

bruises and aching bones from the gig combined with tiredness from working resulted in very little effort in taking pictures of recent purchases, but i'll be sure to get those up soon. however, here is my new blouse from new look, which i wore to work today with topshop jodpurs and my new boots.

and she's half in love with you.

i've been such a busy bee these past few weeks. all of the gigs were beyond amazing, seriously the best nights of my life, and i worked on a photoshoot for a hairdressing school too.
last night my friends came over and we lit rockets, played with sparklers, danced (very badly) and took about a million pictures. me and ellie re-created the alex turner and miles kane picture, then me and jennifer did the alexa chung and alex turner one. it was such a good night. i really do love my friends lots and lots.

i wore: floral print dress from new look, chunky-knit cardi which i got in the river island sale last year, and my winter print bobble hat.
judging by the weather, winter is officially here (what actually did happen to our summer?) and i'm sure christmas will be here before we know it, so i'm going christmas shopping next friday to glasgow with jennifer. we'll probably just shop and go to starbucks and have a really nice time, as always. hope you all had a great fireworks night!

i wonder what it's like to fly so high.

hello, bloggers. i'd like to apologise for the mess of my blog at the moment, i'm in the process of giving it a 'new look' and it's taking quite some time to re-do each post with larger images etc. i do hope you are all having a great week, and highly suggest you have a listen to the velvet underground, if you are not already a fan.

how could i help, but stare.

i should really be doing business homework right now...
i spent the last week up north, for october break, with jenna and my parents. we didn't do anything exciting, just spent the week going walks through the forest where we had mini photoshoots and wandering into town.

and here are a couple of looks we opted for, throughout the week.

i'm really looking forward to the next two weekends, as next saturday i'm going to see One Night Only and then on sunday i'm going to see McFly. then the next again weekend, i'm going to see Mystery Jets on saturday and Foals on the sunday. the Foals gig is actually on halloween, so i'm sure it'll be pretty rad when some people dress up. i'm considering going as a native indian, but in a very simple form, as i don't want to get too dressed up for a gig.

my blood is singing with your voice.

london fashion week. oh, how i wish i was in london right now, attending fashion shows, dressed head to toe in my loveliest clothes. instead, i'm sat at home in my joggers with a cup of tea, catching up with fashion week via the internet. topshop unique s/s 2011 was particularly eye-catching, with it's chiffon dresses and bold colours that just scream spring/summer. i noticed a lot of tassles and fringing too, especially in that amazing pair of shoes (featured in quite a few of the looks posted below). definitely looking forward to s/s 2011 already, and embracing my inner hippie.

also, i'm admiring the use of stars and metallics, sported in the house of holland catwalk. henry holland has always been one of my favourites, and after meeting him earlier this year, i'm constantly in awe of the man. he is such a talented and creative genius.

i had planned this post around my most recent purchases, including a pair of edgy boots and beautiful wedges, however my camera ran out of battery once again and i'm having to wait until it's charged. so hopefully i will have some spare time tomorrow after school and be able to blog then. hope you're all enjoying london fashion week :-)

you and your beautiful soul.

here it is: the predictable apology, for being 'blog-missing' yet again. i had a school emergency, which involved some of my artwork going missing, one week before the deadline. so yeah, i've been busy working on my artwork every night after school, but now it's all finished and i'm back.
here are the scans of some of the photograph prints i got from my disposable camera. i love them. each and every print turned out great, and holds a memory :')

i purchased yet another new lens for my nikon this week, and it got delivered this morning, so i shall be experimenting with that today and may post some photographs tomorrow.
have a lovely weekend, m'dears.
