Buys an instant cake and burns a frozen steak


Good evening my dear friends/readers, I am currently sat in my dark front room and blogging via my mobile phone. My dog is next to me playing with a tennis ball and being all gross and scratchy. Ew. 
Well it is now half term and should be off school next week.. However, I must go back on Wednesday to catch up with art because we are doing an exam and I have to FINISH A WHOLE SKETCHBOOK AND FINAL PIECE WITHIN FOUR WEEKS!!! I personally think it's highly unlikely that I will complete any of it so please wish me luck. Also, on Thursday I am not looking forward to school again at 9:30am till 2:30!?? It's to redo some science coursework that I totes failed last year (my whole class literally got A*-Bs and I think that I got an E??!)- yeah so really not looking forward to that.

Anyways me and my friend Madeleine went charity-shopping in Eccles yesterday..... Um that is a super weird place no offence. Well I often went there with my grandmother as a child and have sometimes gone there on my own but yesterday it was pretty creepy. I bought the cacti above in Wilkinsons though and they are super cute! The pots weren't included and the little one cost only £1.50 and the big one was £4.00 and I recommend that everyone buys one because they are awesome!! I think I spent all my money on them but it was so worth it! 


I spent Valentine's with my grandmother and little sister at our local pub where they serve chips in little silver buckets. I thought it would be cute to dress in 'love'- themed colours. 


Here is some recent inspiration! Marc Jacobs for Perry Ellis ss91 OMG. 


Trying to be all Virgin Suicides yesterday with my cacti

Teenage Dream

I now know what it feels like to be under pressure thanks to school. I just want everyone to know that it is COMPULSARY that my year group attend maths and English revision classes on a SATURDAY......  OMG WHY!!
So anyways, I turned 16 last Friday and had a party after revision on Saturday to celebrate. It was actually more of a 'small gathering', as there was only about seven of us and we spent the day in my garden skipping and hula- hooping like children. I spent the Thursday night recording a mix tape and it sounds rubbish because I recorded the music off youtube from my ipod speakers straight to the tape recorder if that makes any sense at all. Now if I play the Human League on the mix tape it sounds fuzzy and I'm pretty sure you can hear Mrs Chibbles meowing in the background.....



Here are some fashion illustrations (?) I did a couple of weeks ago and literally only just scanned onto the computer.....

 
I'm liking that 'Bay City Rollers' pant and sock combo haha

 
I would like this hair and those shoes please.


I also finally took some film to get developed the other week. I think most of them are from when I went to London in Summer 2012...
 

This is at that Harry Potter Warner Bros thing last year. Those peeps in the yellow and red are my parents!

 
I have no idea who this lady is as I remember intending to take a picture of that swirly swing ride thing. 


This turned out a little blurry.


This one is from when I went on a coach trip to Haworth and some 1940s weekend was going on.

London again.


Also London.

 
I took this at the Harry Potter Land in London. It is a HUGE ice sculpture but really it's made of
glass.
 
 
As I am just finding old pictures that I have saved on my computer right now, I'll share some holiday pics from the summer......

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.

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!!!
