Nerd Shirt

30/10/2013

 
All natural today, no make up, just a fresh face and natural hair parted down the middle. 
This is one of the comfiest outfits ever, the jeans don't feel like jeans and don't dig into the back of your knees which you're sitting down. 
This outfit is super casual but can be dressed up by tucking in the shirt fully and added a few more accessories and a nice pair of shoes or boots. 
I chose to wear my black combat boots with this outfit, what else would I choose? Haha. 
I can't say where I got my bracelet because it was a present. 
Nerd shirt - Primark 
Pink skinny jeans - Topshop

17th Birthday Bash

30/10/2013

 
On the 28th October I finally turned 17! Yay!
I was in such a good mood even though I had to go into school during the holidays for play rehearsals but my boyfriend then picked me up in a bus, we were driving in style haha! Christopher bought me such lovely presents which will be down below and we had such an amazing day just being cute. We cuddled on the sofa and watched The Walking Dead and Geordie Shore. What a mix. He also scared me half to death when he turned off the light when I was hiding under the bed and pretended to be a zombie. I haven't screamed so loud in my life haha! Mummy brought home chocolate cake from Marks & Spencers which was very tasty but I ended up giving mine to Christopher as I wasn't very hungry. 
This is the outfit I wore;
It was a navy playsuit from Exhibit with lace details on the front and lace sleeves. It is actually so comfy and it was a birthday present from Mummy and Daddy. I wore this with black tights since it was quite cold and my black combat boots from shoefashionista.com 
The Theory book was from my parents along with the playsuit. The scarf was from my boyfriend's family. The jumper and perfume was from my boyfriend and he also got me the biggest and most cute card I have ever received. It's pink and has glitter on it!!!

Is this not the cutest ever with the cutest message on the inside! But I'm going to keep that to myself.
I would just like to say thank you to everyone who gave me a birthday present, sent a card or wished me happy birthday. I had an amazing day! I don't want to brag about what I have or anything, this is just a blog post, sorry if I offend anyone.
Hugs with Christopher are the best

Love

It was myself and Christopher's three month anniversary yesterday and I just want to make a short post for that. 
I love Christopher so much it's unreal and he's so special to me and I think about him all the time. I feel like I can't be without him and I miss him so much when we're apart. I think the world of him and he's is perfection to me and he has great hair. I love you Christopher <3
I'm so cheesy.

My Bedroom

29/10/2013

 

After a number of weeks of sleeping in Robbie's room on the floor and painting my furniture and my walls, my room was finally done!

I absolutely love it, it feels more warm and mature. A real girls room. Cream and brown works so well together and I love my new room. Such an improvement from the pink walls with blue tac stains and the rough brown furniture that didn't match the next piece of furniture.

Here are pictures of my new room.

Saturday morning and I usually just throw on a pair of jeans and a casual top but today I went for something different.

I found my pair of newspaper print leggings and I never wore them because I didn't like the idea of people looking at my body but I'm a lot more comfortable with my body and I don't care what people say or think about me anymore or not as much anyway.

I wore the leggings with a black short top and my black combat boots.

I went to my Granny's today and I got some birthday cards :) she also had a wee kitten that I wanted so badly but daddy said no *cries* but oh well I'm not sure if she would have gotten on well with Molly anyway.

She's so cute!!

Sugar Skull

24/10/2013

 
  Happy Halloween! Haha
  My family don't really do anything for Halloween but in the past we have gone trick or treating and to a few parties but that's been the extent of it. We actually made a few of our costumes in the past, one year I went as 'Xena Warrior Princess' and my brother was a dinosaur. 
  I was on tumblr late at night, as usual, when I came across a few sugar skull make up looks and got inspired to recreate it. I fell in love with this look as soon as I searched for more pictures and versions of it. 
Here is my version of the look;

Red Riding Hood

21/10/2013

 
Just thought I'd share a wee 'photoshoot' I did a few months back, it was Red Riding Hood for my GCSE art. This could also be a Halloween idea if anyone wanted to, it is pretty easy to recreate. 
As you can see the make up is pretty neutral, I just filled in my brows and added some false eyelashes. 
The cape was slightly difficult to make but it took all of an hour and with the help of Bethany's video I found it manageable. I will post the video below.
Here are a few more of my pictures. 
Thanks for reading
