Beehive & Kitten Heels

After seeing wishwishwish's beehive tutorial i really wanted to try a full beehive i normally just go for the high hair and a ponytail. I was really happy with the results i don't want to take my hair down ever! ha







I love my kitten heels! these lovelys are from asos, they come up a bit big but thats not going to stop me wearing them. I have had them since christmas and i havent really found an outfit for them to go with, but seeing as im wearing all black today i thought that would be okay.

Brighton Rock

Im a big lover of Brighton and the 60's so when i saw the trailer on the news i knew i had to watch it. I'm a huge film buff and i tend to have a need to watch most films but this looks even better because parts of the film was filmed in the little town i live (just next to Brighton).


The film is a remake of the 1947 film and the book.



This makes me want to go to the sea front a lot more shame i don't have a 1960's gangster boyfriend!


images from google.

It comes out February 4th. I'm too excited!
 Hope everyone had a good day, i spent mine in Brighton having a interview for an art course and window shopping, shame the only thing i came home with is sore feet!

White tights and rain.


The other day me and Lavender Bones went for a walk and too take some blog pictures, it wasn't very nice at all and it just got worse, so we couldn't go far as my poor hair was getting really damp.



My pea coat is a new edition to my wardrobe i got it in the topshop sale for only £20 so i had to pick it up. I'm a big lover of coloured tights i have an ever growing collection it would give blair waldorf a run for her money. These i brought a couple of years ago and i cant remember where from its a good bet that's its topshop or primark? And in the winter I'm never out without my trusty scarf i like to believe it goes with everything.


Have a lovely day, I'm going to spend the rest of my day drawing well hopefully and dying my hair.

i have missed you!

i have really missed the Internet it was a bit odd really not to have it, but at least i was able to get somethings done. Mostly watching to much glee and drawing. The best part of my week was reading and then watching Harry potter. Boy do i have a crush on Rupert Grint!

Cupcake wars

For Christmas one of the books i really wanted was the hummingbird bakery cookbook, all the tempting treats looked so yummy i just needed to learn how to make them. So on Christmas when i received it from my sister i just couldn't wait to start baking i thought i would start and the beginning of the book and so it was vanilla cupcakes.





They came out to so yummy! The butter icing is the best i have ever made (i could have whisked it more and the icing would have been more fluffy but i couldn't wait that long!) i didn't do anything fancy to them like make the icing pink or blue etc. i thought that the icing without colour would do just fine, i just added a pinch of hundreds and thousands to the top and they where good to go! 



In other hummingbird news i hear they have a new cookbook coming out on march 17th with a hundred new recipes! That's getting added to my amazon wishlist.

Outfit Post.

                
            


Well i say outfit more just the dress, i did however have a lovely outfit planned with my new loafers but i was in such a rush today when i was out i didnt have time to take a nice outfit post in a pretty place so im affaid for now my room with have to do (i tried my best to make them look as good!). My dress is annie greenabelle its just so damn comfy! The only downside is its makes me look a bit bustie, well more bustie than i actually am, but the bottom half of the dress is nice and forgiving.



I hope everyone had a lovely weekend.

Knitting Project Take One!

For sometime now i have really wanted to learn how to knit, so seeing as i had some spare cash i thought it would be the perfect time to invest in some knitting needles and some wool. With the help of some youtube videos i have taught myself how to garter stitch (harldy!). I have changed my mind on what im going to make a lot already and i havent even been knitting 24 hours yet! My first attempt was to make my mums friend who had a baby on the way some pink botties (its a girl) but that went wrong so now im attempting make a blanket because i have heard its less tricky, and quite frankley i dont know how to stop and a blanket is quite a big project. I took some photo's so you could see the progress or lack thereof. 



As you can see im far from done, and i have missed some loops or stiches? (oops!)



Im also hoping that over the weekend i can get out and take some outfit pictures buts its so rainy, so im praying the weather will be better on sunday.

Something to brighten your day.

With the weather horried like it is i thought that you might like something to brighten
your day, hopfully this does the trick.


Nadinoo Pixie's Print Shorts
 
Nadinoo Pixie's Navy Mini

Nadinoo Pixie's and Lula's Plume Mini

Im head over heels for nadinoo at the moment, i would say the shorts are on my 2011 wishlist (more about my 2011 wishlist to come) they remind me of Betty Draper and something she would wear while shouting at Sally. But really i would love to have any items but these three are my favourite at the moment. Now im off to get a spot of lunch and have some nadinoo day dreams. Hope the weather is better wherever you are!
