FINEST HOUR

More pictures from the last couple of days:

The week started off super bad - I had patch testing for allergies which made me look like a sad robot.


Spent lots of time with my sister eating cupcakes. She is going to kill me for putting these on here but she is hilarious and I laugh every time I look at them. 



New Lola's flavour; Pimms. Beyond amazing. 

The sister from another mister, TC, arrived on Wednesday morning which was really great. We spent the day eating sweets, walking around and shopping.

But, my friends, the fucking highlight of my ENTIRE life to date was tonight. 
At risk of slaughter, I'm going to delve into the mind blowing experience that was Glee Live! 
That is correct. Laugh, scowl, boil with envy - whatever you please, because frankly I do not give a shit. 
It was phenomenal - bar the fact Santana was sick, though we decided that was probably a positive, as seeing her in the flesh might have brought on an early end to my life. 

We realise now that we are illiterate and our "L's" are backwards. 



Brittany did 'I'm a slave 4 u' which was ridiculously good. 

The Warblers. Darren Criss - I would seriously be on full alert from this point on. I have officially crossed the line from small infatuation to complete stalker. 

All the ladies put your hand in your man's face and tell him. 
Kurt - Single Ladies. 

What a show. 

HEY BOY

Ode to Darren Criss.
I don't know how much longer I can be without you. Admittedly - you're a bit short for me, but that's OK. I don't plan on us standing up for very long.

SKIN

A few pictures from the last couple of days:

Nails -
    I attempted gradient nails once again; the first try went really well so when I tried it again changing the colours I obviously got cocky and fucked it up.

I used purple for the base, ink blue in the middle and black on the tips. 

This is the one I fucked up. I wanted yellow fading into red like a sunset. It just looks like I've been handling a crime scene. 

Some mood boards I've made and put up around my room- 




Spent the entire day in the park today with my sister. Such a good day. 


Then dinner with my shmoooo

TEMPTATION

The beautiful Eva Longoria was photographed by Greg Lotus for the July 2011 edition of Haute Living. The photos are lovely but I think the film produced from the shoot, by creative director Gerard Bush from the brpr Group, is exquisite.

GLASS TABLE GIRLS

Alba Fidalgo by Gustavo Lopez Manas. I find Alba incredibly beautiful - her face is perfectly structured, I adore the bump on her nose and her breasts are phenomenal.

SHOWDOWN

    I have just awoken from a deep slumber thanks to Elle having a normal body-clock compared to mine - which is that of a vampire. I went to Roxy last night. Again. I seriously need to find somewhere else to go out during the week, it's getting silly now - but, alas, the drinks are cheap, the music is loud and a night out with your friends is always nice regardless of what shit hole you're standing in. I had a good night though, all in all, and Elle - when you read this, which you will because you're a true friend who follows my updates - I am the best fucking wing man you will ever have and you owe me. I won't hold you to it, but I'd just like to throw it out there.
    When I got home, after we walked from Tottenham Court Road to Marylebone at 4am with bare legs and shorts that only just had enough fabric to cover our asses, I realised I was somewhat tipsy. The influence of half a bottle of wine and four double mixers took it's toll when I pierced my knee cap on the corner of my bed, causing me to writhe around in pain for a good twenty minutes. I have woken up with what seems to be a small mound of swelling and bruise around the entirety of my knee cap.
    This chick I used to be friends with but am no longer approached me at the end of the night, whilst I was having a conversation with Elle separately to the rest of the group. Not entirely sure what the point of her advance was, but as Elle put it so eloquently; 'Respect her balls, but come now. What the fuck'. Which just completely sums it up, really.

What a body. 

Also, not entirely sure I am either completely obsessed with or massively put off by the Louboutin Fall 2011 Lookbook. Obviously the shoes are to die for but I'm not sure how I feel about the presentation:

HIGH FOR THIS

I had such a strange evening last night- the sister is super sick with some hallucinogenic tonsil related disease that has left her bed bound, shivering for an hour and then sweating the next. Whilst lying in bed stroking her hair, Rango on in the background, I was replying to a private message on Facebook and thought I'd go though all of the messages I'd saved - some were around 4 years old. So I was going through, laughing at most of them and deleting the pointless ones. Then I came across one from an ex-boy - and as I am a massive girl you can generally guess my what my thought train went like; He was so sweet, maybe I was too harsh on him etc. HA. That only lasted so fucking long. Slowly but steadily as I sifted through the chain of messages I realised about 85% of it was pure argument; You haven't spoken to me for a week - Sorry babes - Do you remember me?- Sorry babes.
It was actually strange as I've thought about all the ex-boys in the space of a week. One visited, one called me and the other popped up on my email. I guess it distracts for me for a couple of minutes every so often, but I've realised that that's ok - it's normal. I'm allowed to wish, want and regret. 
I want to go swimming.

DADDY

It's Father's Day today so after gifts and tea we took a stroll down the high street as the Marylebone Summer Fair was on today. It's pretty much the same as it is every year; nice food, nice music and nice little stalls.




My dad is literally the most lovely man on earth; he bought me this adorable necklace. I have worn the same necklace since I was 14 years old; silver, with an Evil Eye and a Star of David. Now, for the first time in 6 years I'm changing it up, with a new Evil Eye and a Hamsa.


I thought I'd show a photo of one of my favourite items of jewelry as well. My friend Kyle Hopkins made this ring and kindly gave it to me. He's already making waves and I know he's going to be a big name in the future. I wear this all the time. 


I got this onesie from ASOS whilst I was working at the magazine. Admittedly, I saw Chloe from TOWIE wearing it in one episode and when I saw it at the biweekly ASOS sample sale I thought why the hell not. However, every time I put it on I feel like a 5 year old going through my dress up box. I'm really struggling to find a way to wear it or accessorize it and it's starting to piss me off.


I would say oh my gosh I'm so sorry my room is such a mess, but this is really what my room looks like at all times. Piles of crap everywhere; ribbons, make up, Ribena and books. Everywhere! Yeah, so this is the onesie. The more I look at it the more I want to trash it. TOWIE was the influence after all....
