winter wonderland

I love autumn/ winter and I once again find myself dreaming of winter woolies, I think it's a mood induced by night shifts.

SodaStream is back!!

screw this i'm becoming a pilot

I've being toying with the idea of getting a pilots license and after today at work I am seriously thinking about it (we've had a new system in and it's stupid and it's been so busy). It costs about £7000 but when I see pictures of Amy Johnson and the 1940's WASPS all I want is an old school plane to fly to my hearts content.

Myla

I love Myla underwear, I want it all, so far I have two sets- this pale grey blue set and the wine coloured set. They're so beautiful and I treasure them as if they were gold, and I think they're two of my investments even though they do cost a small fortune.

films

1. Pick 10 of your favourite movies.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.

1. Casper was like the dad you always wanted - the one who lets you have lollies and fizzy drink, who lets you stay up and watch the late night movies.

2. Summer romances begin for all kinds of reasons, but when all is said and done, they have one thing in common. They're shooting stars, a spectacular moment of light in the heavens, fleeting glimpse of eternity, and in a flash they're gone.

3. Well the buzz from the bees is that the leopards are in a bit of a spot. And the baboons are going ape over this. Of course, the giraffes are acting like they're above it all... The tick birds are pecking on the elephants. I told the elephants to forget it, but they can't. The cheetahs are hard up, but I always say, cheetahs never prosper...

4. 16 inches! How long does a man's hose have to be?

5. And those are the words of a gentleman. From the first moment I met you, your arrogance and conceit, your selfish disdain for the feelings of others made me realize that you were the last man in the world I could ever be prevailed upon to marry.

6. Porthos dreams of being a bear, and you want to shatter those dreams by saying he's just a dog? What a horrible candle-snuffing word. That's like saying, "He can't climb that mountain, he's just a man", or "That's not a diamond, it's just a rock." Just.

7. My daughter speaks with the wisdom beyond her years. We've all come here with anger in our hearts, but she comes with courage and understanding. From this day forward, if there is to be more killing, it will not start with me.

8. Letting everyone down would be my greatest unhappiness.

9. If you've got no love in your heart, you've got nothing... No dreaming, not story, nothing

10. love her smile. I love her hair. I love her knees. I love how she licks her lips before she talks. I love her heart-shaped birthmark on her neck. I love it when she sleeps/ I hate her crooked teeth. I hate her 1960s haircut. I hate her knobby knees. I hate her cockroach-shaped splotch on her neck. I hate the way she smacks her lips before she talks. I hate the way she sounds when she laughs

magpie

I'm somewhat of a magpie where jewellery is concerned and I love all that tacky costume jewellery! But today I found something more sophisticated that oozes 'Upper East Side' appeal Anthropologie, until today I had never ventured to their website, they're experts in statement jewellery, most of it doesn't even need an outfit to go with it!

want ii

I think I've developed a slight American craze, hopefully so will the rest of the world as I want this too...
and who cares if I didn't go to university, I can pretend I went abroad to an Ivy League Legend to become a Princeton Tiger! And my Gossip Girl addiction has lead me to wanting this scarf and the 'gentleman' wearing it.

want

I know it's the middle of summer but today is all dark and gloomy and has got me thinking about autumn/ winter. I can never seem to pull off winter clothes very well, I love summer too much and I love my dresses and heels too much and have been known to wear skyscraper type heels in ice! But I've found something I absolutely love and want so bad, I've been searching for a baseball jacket and have finally found one on eBay- although I'd prefer a vintage one, I can't find one for love nor money and this one is amazing.

little treasures

Here's a few of the things I've found in the sales so far (when I'm no longer hobbling I plan to physically go to the sales).

Matryoshka dolls from Russia, I've fallen head of heels in love with them



And in the background is my 50p photo frame, and these are my fabulous baby blue shorts from H&M.




I love La Senza normally but even more when they have a sale, I bought a boyfriend night shirt- it’s amazingly comfortable and a set of underwear I’ve been longing for but couldn’t justify buying.


And here are some of my birthday presents, I have amazing friends that know me so well

Internet shopping <3

I'm already tucked up in bed trying to recover from my kiteboarding accident where I hit the ground rather hard and got dragged along a bit. I'm waiting for the bruises to come out and I'm in total agony, I'm in pain all down my side from half way up my ribs to the middle of my thigh. So basically I'm feeling sorry for myself and considering I can barely walk to venture in the mid season sales I'm so glad someone invented internet shopping, I'll share my finds later.

the beach




Yesterday I went to the beach at Minster, even though its pebbley it's one of my favourite beaches and I even went for a little swim. I took some photos on my iPhone using my new favourite app Hipstamatic add I think you should all get it!!
