Oh my god I am soo bored!! I've got a load of homework to do before school starts in September, and all my papers and exercise books stink because I have been keeping my school bag in a smelly old suitcase I bought at a vintage fair earlier this month. I went down to a cute little sweet shop near my nana's house this morning and bought some of that space dust that makes your brain go all fizzy and gave some to my dog who surprisingly did not react to the sweet(OK PLEASE DO NOT THINK I AM A CRUEL DOG- HATER BECAUSE I AM NOT!!)...

 
Cute lil' surprise I got in a pack of jelly beans I got today.


Our shower is broken so we now have to have baths until we fix it.

                             
 
Someone was selling this on ebay for about A £200. WHATTTT!!?????

                             
 
Amazing roller boots that someone was selling on ebay that I couldn't get because they were like 5 sizes too big. Sad times.



Holy picture I bought the other week. I thought it would look nice in my room but my mum did not approve therefore she made me take it back to the shop. I thought I could go all Winona Ryder in 'Mermaids'.

Hot tramp, I love you so!

Good evening huns, since my last post, I have skateboarded to my local co-op twice, been on a coach trip to Durham, and I went to a vintage fair. Today I bought a really cute pair of little gold 60s dancing shoes in AgeUK, but they broke when I just wore them round the house for like 2 minutes, so my mind has been crying for a few hours. I also had a dream last night that I saw 70s Mick Jagger on the bus, which was AWESOME!!

 
Well I am extremely jealous of this gal's style, the source of this image is unknown.
 
Here are some shots of my Tumblr......
 


 
Amazing Frida Kahlo socks I saw on Google images...
 
 
 

 
Super cute pic of a young Mick Jagger I found on Tumblr!!

Joe le taxi

Oh god.... my post titles are getting more and more ridiculous, so I'll apologise for that now before they get even more random and irrelevant!
Sooo, I HAVE LITERALLY EIGHT DAYS LEFT TILL THE SUMMER HOLIDAYS!!!!!! YEA BOIIII!!! Wow I'm so excited!
Well the weather's been fine where I live, you know, everyone's been in their gardens, havin' fun in tha sun!
I've also kept up with Wimbledon this year, so WHOOO MURRAY!!!!!


 
Well here I am blowing bubbles in quite an 'overgrown' area of my garden. I don't know why I'm wearing some sort of Mexican-style outfit.... um yeah I do actually, it's because I tried to go all Frida Kahlo.


I got this skirt in AgeUK on Saturday. I had to alter it because it was twice my size. My top is from a vintage jumble sale and I made my flower crown out of some artificial flowers that my grandmother was going to throw away. Oh yeah and my necklace is also from AgeUK!

 
yum.

Fantastically plastic!

They're about two weeks left till the summer holidays and I don't know whether I can last until then, as school is really tiring me out now..... omg.
So I've been feeling rather 'pink' recently. Umm yeah that doesn't really make much sense but OH MY GOSH IT'S SUCH A PRETTY COLOUR!!
Also I was looking at old Barbie dolls and I thought it would be fun if I shared some Purdy ones I've found with you...


This is part of what I wore a couple of week ago. I made the Barbie necklace with bits and bobs I found in my room, and the pearly gold one is from Age UK which I bought the other week. It came with a matching bracelet and earrings and cost me a total of £1.99. My shirt is vintage and has the poofiest sleeves. EVER!! I bought it at a vintage jumble sale event in Manchester last month.

 
Found this on Google images.

 
 
OMG SUPER CHRISTMAS 90'S BARBIE!! This is like the coolest thing I've seen for a while!
I found this pic on Google images.

Oh snaahhpp!

Hello there! Oh my, I have not done any blogging hardly this month... mostly because I didn't know what to write about and I probably forgot I even had a blog!
So anyways, since my last post, I've done a proper science exam and a few mock exams.... I also went to London last weekend (I took pictures but I've not put them on the computer yet)!!
I thought it would be good to make my own Etsy shop. I plan to put some stuff on it soon!
Well here are some pictures I've taken/ found throughout the past few weeks...

 
Here is me wearing my gold leather jacket I bought for £6.99 in AgeUK last month. It's by Jaeger, and is real leather, and I am totally in love with it!!


 
I made this little 'shrine in a jar' the other day. I thought it would be a good way to make use of all the cool things I think are too special to use....



I watched the film 'Alice Sweet Alice' a couple of weeks ago on YouTube (you can get the whole film on there if you just type in the name of the film). It's pretty freaky but I kinda liked it!

 
Inspirational image I found on Google Images.

 
OMG THIS IS SOOOO CUTE I LOVE THEM OMG DAVID BOWIE + MICK RONSON OMG PERFECT PERFECT PERFECT!!!!!! (found this on Tumblr).

lovely jubbly

I've not actually used the term 'lovely jubbly' for quite a long time, but it's so hard to think of titles for my post I just type the first thing that comes into my head. So, erm... I have a science exam next week that I really need to revise for and I need to finish my history and art homework for Monday so, um, yeah I suppose that's pretty exciting...

OMG I'M STILL WATCHING WUTHERING HEIGHTS (the 1992 version) AND OMG HEATHCLIFF IS FORCING CATHERINE LINTON TO MARRY HIS SON OMG INTENSE STUFF HER FATHER IS DYING AND HEATHCLIFF WON'T LET HER SEE HIM UNTIL SHE MARRIES LINTO OMG NOW SHE'S KNEELING AT HIS FEET AND ASKING HIM IF HE HAS EVER LOVED ANYONE....

Okay I'll stop now.....
 

Well here's a cute lil' sweet shop I found on google images.


 
I don't know how I came across these two pictures above- they're on this website I just found.



Pretty taxidermy butterfly display I found somewhere on Tumblr.


I found this on google images and omg they are soo cute I want one!

c-c-c-c-changess

POW!! I like, totally redecorated my blog! I just got sooo bored with the plain white layout so I decided to spruce it up a wee bit. Anyways... things that I've achieved this week; um... well I kind of figured out how to work Tumblr, I bought some jeans in a vintage shop in town, I did my maths homework at the start of the week, ermmm- I think that's it really.

I also really quite fancy blogging actual photographs that I have actually taken myself, and not just pics I've found on Google. I have a few rolls of film I need to take for developing so when I get that done I'll find a way of putting it on the blog.

I'll now move onto some sweet pictures I've collected throughout the week....


One of my new All-time favourite films has to be most definitely Marie Antoinette with Kirsten Dunst in it! It's like the most beautiful film ever made....


Shoes from Marie Antoinette.

 
I NEED MY ROOM LIKE THIS!!


Pic I took at Clothes Show Live last year (I'm sure I blogged it ages ago....).



Marie Antoinette art I found on ROOKIE.
 
 
Shoes from the film.

 
OMG THESE KITTIES ARE SOOO CUTTEEE I NEEEDDD THEMM!!!
