with love…


Last year I sent my two best friends Hollie and Laura hand-made valentines day card and this year I plan to do the same, and maybe my boyfriend might even be lucky enough to receive one!
Whilst looking at some design websites I got distracted and started to look at cards, and I saw these beautiful ones which I thought I'd share with you for inspiration!

So cute right! The cards by Lisa Jones are only £2.50 and are just so adorable so if you aren't into making things these are such a cute option. I will be making mine myself and I'll post the outcome when I'm done :)

'The Birds'


Whilst doing my research for my 'RSA' British Fashion stamps I started to look at Alexander McQueen, I'd forgotten how fantastic his Spring 2008 'The Birds' collection was…


My favorite will forever be the Peacock dress (which looks very similar to the wedding dress Fleur wears when marrying Bill Weasley (who apparently attends my university?!) in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows) it's so elegant and beautiful.

Now I best get back to researching Britain's most influential fashion designers.



Cinnamon blouse

As I said in my post yesterday I brought a new blouse and scarf, and that I'd take photographs of them so here they are!

Blouse: Primark
Body Con Skirt: Primark
Grey Bra: Asos

This is the outfit I'll probably wear on friday night when I go out with Sam and Leanne, although most likely with a different bra. This is the scarf I got as well…

Scarf: Primark
Bag: Miss Selfridge

And as for the surprise I thought my boyfriend was cooking me, turns out he'd just ordered dominos, which was amazing.

2:1



We had our assessment tutorials today from our mid-year hand in that we did just after Christmas break. I was the 3rd one in the year to have mine this morning, so I was a little uneasy about it all, but with no need so it would seem because I ended up getting a 2:1 over all! Which I was pretty happy about, because this is the first grade I have got that actually goes towards my degree.

Whilst being on a high after my midday class I went into town to pick up a few goodie, which included a new blouse and scarf from Primark (which I'll post about tomorrow or something) and…


and for £2.50 I'm sure you'll agree quite a bargin. Shame they didn't have volume 1 as well though, but oh well! Going to cuddle up and watch it with the boyfriend later, after he's cooked some kinda surprise?! Not totally sure what I'm in for there.

starting over…

Blogging isn't a new concept to me, I've had my tumblr since 2008 but recently I've grown bored of it and deiced to come back to blogspot, not to mention now I can also cut my bookmarks in half because I can now follow them on here.

I don't fancy posting the same bullshit I was on tumblr, these posts will be more personal, full of photographs and more creative.
