He used to be a singer in a rock n roll band.

 Ooh, get me, posting midweek!
Actually this post is so pre-planned, it's a little embarrassing. On Sunday, I wore this, took these pictures, and made this collage. But I already had enough pictures for my post on Sunday so, being the sneaky gal I am, I decided to hide it away and bridge the gap between the next time I can be bothered to put some batteries in my camera.

Hmm, my pose didn't seem that silly when I was posing it.
Incase you were wondering, my bed is so low down because it's not a bed, it's a mattress on the floor. I have no bed. I decided I hated my old bed, and no new bed has been bought so... I have no bed.



That's the song, it's pretty. Listen to it if you like pretty music.

hopefully another post will come soon!

Contented.

My first week back at school is over and the second almost here, but with summer fast approaching everything seems a lot easier and more relaxed. But I'm becoming such a hermit, lately my ideal day is staying at home watching Come Dine With Me!
Yesterday I managed to drag myself out of the house for lovely Holly's belated birthday party.We all mooched about in a little nail bar and had our nails done, which was so nice and (continuing with the theme) relaxing. I chose "Ashes of Rose" because I loved the name and I've been swayed by the media into believing that everything should be in unoffensive shades of blush.

I wore the one on the right for the party, the left for lounging at home.
The shirt and amazing leather skirt were my recent H&M purchases, £10 each. The shirt fits like a dream, is a fab shape & and is so lusciously soft. The skirt is just amazing. Mmm, pleather.
And the denim shorts I made two years ago from my mums boyfriend fit Gap jeans, I just throw them on when the mood takes me.

Lately I've been feeling like wearing as many rings as I can stuff on my fingers, most of these are H&M from little packs that only cost £1.99! They're all so pretty, and this means I can stop feeling so angry when I look at overpriced (in my case, probably cheap for most people) Topshop rings.
This sweet little cupcake came in my party bag, and the tiny ice cream matched my nails so I got excited and took a picture. Isn't it cute?

love always,
Lily

P.S. How to the pictures look to you? I'm using a new editing program that Rachel from In An English Accent  reccomended to me and I think it looks so much better!

On Friday

I...

helped out my chums

had many a piggy back

looked like a very moody teenager when people took my picture (and turned pink)

Oh, and I was a cat.

Everything is better by the riverside, especially on a lovely sunny day. Unfortunately the weather is being quite nasty and cloudy now, but that's okay since it's just in time for school. And who wants to waste sunny days sweating in a classroom? Not meeee, so save them all up for weekends please!

much love
Lily

I'm making changes.

The blog is getting a big kick up the bum, or a makeover if you want to be more subtle.
I'm putting a lot more of myself into it now, and I really hope you are all liking it! This header isn't forever, and I'm aware it's not a pretty sight (ok yeah I made it in about a minute on paint) but I was bored with the old one and time and effort aren't my friends right now.
If you have suggestions, or even want to be amazing and make me a header, then pleeeeease do I will love you more than I already do for reading my blog.
In an attempt to make this an interesting post, doesn't Carey Mulligan just look like perfection here? Seriously, this picture is too perfect. SO perfect it makes me a little sad, but in a happy lovely ohmygoshshe'samazing way.


love forever

Today I did this.

And loved it.

Hot days call for strawberries and favourite books.
Tomorrow I'm picnicking by the river, first swim of the year hopefully - very excited! Hopefully summer has actually begun, no more false starts please. I already have tan lines, even if no-one else can see them.

Yesterday it rained.

I wore this. Still not sure if I like it.




(Blouse - Zara, Vest thing - Topshop, Skirt - H&M, Cardigan - Kew, Tights - ???, Brogues - Vintage, Satchel - My mums)
I love this satchel, it's so deliciously battered and worn - which I think looks much more appealing than a fresh out of the box one. My mum stole it from one of her boyfriends at art college and now it's mine. The brogues were my dream find from Portobello market, they are in such beautiful condition and the colour is so yummy.
ANYWAYS, soon I will post my supeeeer new purchases (INCLUDING PLEATHER!!!) which I am in love with.
