Green with envy

I've spent the entirety of this evening having a one sided conversation with my cat whilst watching a documentary about transexuals... sounds exciting doesn't it? Well, it wasn't. 
AND
Whilst i sat doing this, my parents were at a Muse concert. I'm not a massive fan of Muse or anything, although i do think they're a good band, but i am absolutely overflowing with envy. To be quite honest, live music is amazing whoever the artist, I just love the atmosphere and being part of the crowd. My mother dearest recorded a few of their songs that i like for me and it looked like a really brilliant show, flames, fireworks n all sorts... snazzzzzy! 

I have to mention how brilliant some of the Muse album covers are, I don't know what is it but theres something about them which I find really fab.




And for any of you that haven't heard their music before...



Nightynight loserz!!!!!!

It's a time of change

Heyho all you lil slothbags! So, today i have managed to irritate every single person i've conversed with, so I thought it sensible to spend the day alone. I spent an entire ten minutes attempting to revise some Biology but soon lost interest and went for a little stroll.

I haven't done anything particularly ravishing and therefore won't be sharing anything great with you but i've spent rather a lot of time thinking about deep, philosophical things lately.

Something that has been on my mind a lot is change. Partly because a lot of changes are happening in my life at the moment i guess, and it's something that fascinates yet terrifies me. 
This is so perfectly true..


And on the topic of change I've been making a few collages showing how things have changed over time in my life, slightly pathetic, and very time wasting but yeah..







Random, rather bizarre post i know, but i'm just speaking my thoughts.

Hell week

I feel obliged to start by apologising for my lack of posting, I assure you I have not abandoned you all! This week has been what is commonly known in the world of year 11 students as 'hell week' ... basically I had a TON of exams and therefore my blog was neglected ever so slightly, but HEYHO here i am!

Today I went to Oxford Street with mother dearest in search of a prom dress and it was a SUCCESS!! I described what kind of dress I wanted in a post a few weeks ago and I found something absolutely perfecto, here it is ( and my new heels ) ...




The dress is from Bershka and the shoes from Aldo... I confess, i have spent the past two hours walking around my house in the outfit like a total goon.

Hope you've all had a lovely week and didn't miss my posts too much lol xo

Oh so grunge

Today i was in a really awful mood so i decided some retail therapy was needed so i started browsing through clothes websites.
That got me thinking about how trends come and go and how 'grunge' is now suddenly the 'in' thing. However, i don't know if i'm alone in this view but our recreated 'grunge' just does't live up to its original. I started looking at photographs of the likes of Johnny Depp and Kate moss in the 90's and they look so unbelievably effortlessly cool but somehow these days it always seems to look like one has put a ton of effort into their 'grunge' look.

Anyway, i concluded i love the look of the 90's and their effortless style and if i could, i'd go back in time so i could be a teen in the back then.

Ok, it's been a long week and i'm aware im probably making absolutely no sense and i do apologise. I'll just show you some of the photos i've been looking at instead of waffling on...






Hope you all have a lovely weekend!

Smile for the camera

A few weeks ago I did my art GCSE which involved doing a ten hour final piece, which for me was a painting. The day before, i called upon my wonderful cousin and had a mini photoshoot - the theme was Force and I was focusing on movement and dancers and flowing materials, nonsense like that. It was great fun because I got to spend the day taking photos, something I love, AND the photos had a purpose. 
I thought i'd share some of the photos with you, they aren't great quality and the backgrounds are awful (my kitchen door!) but they were the best we could get with such little time and space. I was aiming to capture her graceful movement somehow, so here you go...





N'aw isn't my cousin beautiful xo

Sweet dreams

I'm off to bed as i have a whole day of revision ahead of me (woo, cannot wait xo). I've had an extremely unproductive evening doodling and collaging. I'm going to post them here so you can all stare at them whilst I sleep (sounds creepy) but anyway, goodnight! 


and my favourite...


Sleep well,

Doodlin'

Now that my art GCSE is over i've been feeling deprived of creativity so i've started doing little doodles  and I thought i'd show you a little shitty one i just did.

It's a jokey animalised portrayal of body image issues/a load of nonsense..


Its stupid and pretty rubbish but yes, thats what i spend my time doing haha. Poor lil kitty xo
