hi honeys

Feeling a lot happier today, thank you for all your nice comments. This is just a little post because I'm feeling so indecisive right now and need some opinions.

I really like this top, but I'm so used to wearing things tucked in so I'm a bit disconcerted by the detail at the bottom and can't think of many ways to wear it but I love the cute little bow print. I think it looks okay with a body-con skirt (pictured) and if I manage to find some vintage levis shorts (I know, everyone has them but so handy) but do you think it's worth buying it? Also not sure if it's very flattering and it's just a bit mehesepsh and not that "interesting". Hmm. Opinions? 

sorry for the boring post!

hmm

I feeling really fml about school at the moment. It's really horrible. I hate school. I wish someone understood about that. I just can't stand being there.





jumper - ebay
skirt - h&m
shirt - h&m
shoes - vintage


Ebay is the best thing in my life at the moment, so addictive! I'm so shallow, shopping seriously makes me feel better when I'm down & I love the thrill of a bidding war. Also this jumper is so lovely and cosy, my favourite piece of clothing - I've literally been wearing it non stop since it arrived (parcels are so exciting!!). Bought a couple of new jumpers today - can't wait to wear them so outfits soon - and some impulse buy wedges. Anyway, hopefully a few more posts this week, I have a little stash of pictures waiting.

hi hello how are you

Just a short post to let you know I'm still here. I've been quite busy lately, spending the weekend having actual fun for the first time in a while. I'm also in the process of (hopefully!) changing subjects at school. As well as all the mandatory ones, I currently do BTEC Art & Design, which I am hating, & history. I'm trying to swap art & design for normal GCSE art and sociology which is stressing me out a bit! I'm also trying to find a decent work experience, so frustrating when everyone's already found theirs. But changing to subjects I will actually enjoy is also making me feel a lot more positive about school, I'm studying Animal Farm in English (1984 was amazing so looking forward to reading this) and they just gave us our big books of poetry which I find so exciting! I'm always surprised by how much I love poetry, I find it so interesting.
Also I really need to go shopping, just struggling to find the motivation to go places & leave the house by myself, since there's no-one else I want to go shopping with right now. Oh well, things will sort themselves out.

I am a creature of desire.

I want all of this so much it makes me twitch. I think that's bad.


Who needs friends when you've got clothes?

Cause baby I'm reliable

I'll never go.




I'm a pretty damn inconvenient person, I think. Mainly because I always remember I want to go charity shopping on a saturday night and I'm always frustrated when I remember they're all closed on a sunday. Oh, well, I have a lot of work to do anyways. But I'm so tired and I want a bath. Basically I just want to sleep for a week or so and then have like a week long bath. At least I stole an Adrian Mole book from my brother's house today so I can keep myself sane for a little longer.

Today I went shopping by myself.

velvet blazer - £2 from a charity shop, best thing ever
shirt - h&m
shorts - topshop
rings - topshop, asos, accessorize, vintage


I used to hate it, I felt so awkward and didn't know what expression to have on my face but today I had a nice time. I bought a dress & a pleather skirt, it was nice to be able to just look by myself. I felt completely at ease, maybe I've matured or maybe I'm just bored of other people. Or maybe I'm a pretentious brat? Eitherway I had a good time. No proper outfit pictures, but one good quality one with natural light.

my beloved was weighed down

shirt - h&m 
shorts - new look 
belt - topshop 
shoes - office 


Today I found out why people like tumblr. I didn't do much else. Expect random pictures posts frequently. Also found out how to have solo fun with slow shutter speed and lights and take silly pictures of my face. So sad that I have school now and can't find time to trawl the charity shops like I want to, plus I have an angry charity shop related anecdote/rant I need to share but can't share now because it's after midnight. Maybe tomorrow. Or on Monday night when I should be doing some work. Either way it made me angry.

out of the loop

I feel so disconnected with the tiny world around me. A week ago I deleted my facebook and today I broke my phone. It fell out of my pocket when I was running and I stepped on it. Oops. Oh well, I'd had it for four years so it's not like I didn't get my money's worth. I think I just got a bit to attached to it, since I got it when I was eleven.

Kiss With a Fist

Because of my absurd holiday sleeping pattern, I have become addicted to late night radio. I can't really explain how this happened, but basically I listen to Radio 4 for at least an hour every night - I just like the sound of people talking I suppose. Last night between 11 and midnight I caught the end of a really interesting program where Florence Welch was speaking about the poetry that influences her music and I (re?)discovered what a lovely engaging person she is. I found her really inspirational to listen to and her speaking voice is just so sugary and sweet. She was talking about her love of writing about things anatomical (lungs) in her music and the concept behind her song "Between Two Lungs", about breaking a kiss down to it's simplest form - "a breath shared between two people". It just reminded me of how much I love her music and how amazing she was at Latitude. I actually just found the rest of it on catch up, which I might listen to later. I recommend it, though.

last day of peace

I changed the address thingy, hope you all found me.







1. My brother took most of our Adrian Moles to uni, so I've only had the cappuccino years and the growing pains to satisfy my craving. If you haven't read any Adrian Mole, you really should - he's a great comfort. 2.More pictures of my hands, boring I know, but I wanted to show off that big fat coral one. It was a Christmas present from my brother which was too small for my chubby fingers. I put it on today, though, and it fitted! Yay for small victories. 3. And these are my new shoes, an impulse buy (sort of), heavily reduced from £46 to £10. I'd wanted some for a while and spotted them when I was bored whilst waiting for a friend who was trying on party heels. I like them a lot.


I start school again tomorrow which means less posts (or same amount of posts,less work - quite likely) and sad Lily. I am dreading it so much, seeing people I hate and being patronized is not my idea of a perfect day. At least I have my hunk of  a French teacher for a double in the afternoon. Again, small victories.

mystery

This is my favourite song at the moment, I think it's so beautiful. Hopefully some pictures soon, I want to take some. I feel a lot better, I just received such a nice comment. It made me cry a little bit. Thank you all so much, I will be a proper blogger again soon.

oh hi these are my fingers

Still feeling a bit off mentality wise. I find it really hard writing down what I'm feeling because I would say 90% of  my life is contained inside my head. Does that sound insane? I don't know, maybe it's normal. I hope not, because it would be a horrible world if everyone felt like I do all the time. Instead of finding new friends, I've been rediscovering old ones and I think I'll stick with them. No-one else has the patience to spend time with me.
I haven't managed to find any batteries (should probably get some rechargeable ones)  for my camera so no proper pictures, but I felt I need to share something. Thank you all for being nice.

happy new year.

I had an awful night. I feel awful. 

My new years resolutions are -

1. Be less of a bitch.

2. Make new friends.

3. Stop trying to impress people.

4. Be myself.

5. Stop feeling sorry for myself.
