'Haul' Pictures

Not too keen on the word 'haul' as it implies that I bought lots of stuff, which for once, I didn't. Anyway here are some pictures of the items described in my last post, I couldn't be bothered to take off the horse print dress to photograph it seperately so sorry about the multiple mirror shots, but you'll get the general idea :)














Love this bag :D


Enjoy :)

Track of the week 4.


The Vaccines- Post Break Up Sex

Love this song at the moment, may have to check out some of their other stuff :)
Just realized that my dissertation is due the first tuesday back after the easter hols, so it looks like I'll have to cut short my holiday in order to finish, print and get it bound. Nightmare. And I'm still only on 3000 words. Ughhh. Lots of work to do. Including numerous other essays/projects. Got pretty good exam results though on the upside- two firsts and a 2:1 which I really can't complain about :D

Anyway, got to look for a present for the boy's birthday- no idea what to buy with a very limited budget- blame the rent. On the upside I got given some money as a present for passing exams etc so I went to Primark and went a bit crazy. Managed to get 2 hair scarves, a tiger face t-shirt with horrible fake stick on diamonds on that I managed to peel off- result! Also got a horse print dark blue dress with a lovely lace collar and a chiffon terracotta colour dress- which happened to be the last one in the shop haha. It's quite long for me- just above the knee, but at least I won't be flashing everyone and the colour is what does it for me- beaut. Got some ripped/lacey tights from good old M&S and a lovely brown leather frame bag from Topshop, pictures to come soon :)
Primark's jewellery was rubbish- usually they have some good stuff, I was looking for an owl ring but no luck, and I can't afford Accessorize, boo. I will keep searching.

Hair Scarf

Ok sorry to spam everyone with loads of self-pictures but I tried out tying a scarf in my hair and wanted to show the results on here- I think it went pretty well considering my hair is quite fine and things I do to it usually fall out in 5 minutes- thank god for hair pins and freeze-hold hair spray, plus it was a good opportunity to test out the effects of my mac's photobooth hahaha!

 Sorry for the lack of posting recently, (if anyone actually reads this), got a bit of a tumblr obsession at the moment, easier to post up photo's and such, but I'm back on blogspot now so it's all good :)







By the way, if anyone knows how to get your own background for your blog (I would love a polka dot pattern) pleaseeeeee help! I have no idea how to do it!

today

Asda lemon cupcake, you have no idea how happy this makes me, especially after a long hike in the Wiltshire countryside. My foot has a huge blister on! :(

Anyway, I got a tumblr account, I find it easier to post pictures and share them on there than on here, but I prefer writing my thoughts on my blogspot, so that's how its going to be, although I'll still be putting up pictures on here. I'm not so sure about the whole reblogging thing on tumblr, when I do it I try to credit where possible, and always put a link to my page on my photographs. I think as long as you try your hardest to credit the photographer then its ok, and that goes for on here too.
I don't really have any new photos at the moment, except for some very sweet ones of my boyfriend looking all sleepy, but he'd kill me if they appeared on here hahaaa. When all or most of my work is done I will get out and snap some stuff. Going to town tomorrow to attempt to get some Valentine's presents for the boy, I have set a £10 limit for both of us...could be interesting, wonder if Primark does V.Day gifts..? JOKE! Anyway, I am shattered and need to make my foot better, plus I can feel an impending headache coming, nap time. Enjoy Valentines!
