The Festival Faux Pas

Me being me, has always believed that at a festival, you are allowed to look like a pure dog. I mean yes, okay recently supplement magazines have been full to the brim with gear for upcoming music weekends and maybe I should of got the hint. But I didn't think anyone actually brought these cutesy straw hats and spent hundreds of dollar on the infamous raybans....oh how wrong could I of been. 

From the moment I arrived at the festival it was like a scene from American Pie meets Snog, Marry, Avoid. Every girl was covered in fake tan, apart from me who was, by now looking a little bit red, "Mom, I don't need suncream, it's going to rain", is a phrase I wish I could take back. Every boy had a top half like Daniel Craig and I just stood and watched in awe as hundreds of girls walked by in boob tubes, wishing I had packed something a little more seductive than my mothers rain coat.

What amazed me the most though, were these little hotpants which every girl with a perfect peach seemed to be sporting, I could still spot some cellulite though so I'm not THAT jealous. I mean, I am a huge fan of the high waisted short on a night out, but there were literally ass cheeks dropping out left, right and centre stage. How anyone could be comfortable with a piece of cheap denim riding up their derriere is beyond me? 

Buttttt I suppose when you are the queen of pop you're able to pull it off as a piece of fine art/ass. 

Note to self: Next year buy a pair of the tiniest hotpants around and aim to look like Rihanna. (Think I'm pushing that latter comment slightly)...I'm still packing the mac though and maybe adding a waist belt for a glamorous feel. xxxxx

New Heights

I know it's a cliché, women loving shoes and handbags, but I genuinely have fallen in love with a new pair of shoes I've discovered. They're the first thing on my mind in the morning and last thing when I fall asleep, maybe I should consider leaving the house more!
Now I haven't actually had the chance to see them in the flesh, I've just been constantly stalking them on the River Island website........


There may just be a teenie weenie problem with these beauts...are they going to be high enough? Merely escaping dwarf height, I tend to wear 5 inch platforms.
Oh and the fact they're not exactly Primark prices and I really could use the $$$$$.

It's that time of year!

Your new year’s resolutions have flitted away (if they didn’t within the first week of January) and your telling yourself...sod it, there’s always next year!!
Deadlines are looming and you want everything out the way by Easter but you know you’re going to spend most of the holidays doing work anyway.
And on top of everything the summer is on its way and we have to deal with the stress of bikini bods.
But let’s look on the bright side, literally, the sun is officially HERE.....at least until the April showers grace us with their presence.

Here are a few tips on how to look good without investing in a summer wardrobe already:

Sunglasses- For me it’s all about the aviators.



Sandals- Although I’m not discarding my ugg boots just yet.
Maybe not these ones!!!


Fake Tan- Because when the weather rarely gets above 15, we’re going to need some bronzed pins!

I'm a virgin.

It's true, I'm a blogging virgin.The first time I have EVER considered writing a blog, boredom took over on a Sunday afternoon.
I'm sat with my fruit tea (purely because someone has rinsed the milk), supposed to be writing a feature on rock climbing.
And no...I am not a fan of climbing. As I'm only 5.2, reaching for the top shelf is a big challenge, so I'm leaving the mountains to the experts.
Writing a feature on a subject your clueless about, was probably a bad idea but 400 words into it, what's the point in giving up?
Anyway...to the point. So the tutors have been battering on about getting a blog set-up for a few months now but, and no offence to the blogging fanatics out there but I just don't care. Why, oh why, would someone want to know where I've been this week (or in general, JOKES). And especially who with! Okay, I'm actually gonna stop laughing at myself now :).
So if something interesting happens in my life, asides from watching Emmerdale with my halogen heater, I'll be sure to post it on here, in the hope that someone cares!!
