you live alone, creating your life as you go.

so my ultimate #girlcrush and obsession of all time is edie sedgwick. she was and always will be amazing. 15 minutes of fame and inspiration that will last forever. so tonight im lucky enough to be going to a 60s/70s/80s fancy dress party. normally im like fancy dress, boo, as it usually means no food for two days in order to try look nice in a ridiculous outfit whilst surrounded with people dressed in lingerie #meangirls style (hello, fancy dress does not mean no dress!) anyway, at first i was like ah hippie style, yknow donn some plaits in my hair, tiedye, floaty skirts. im done. then i was ashamed at myself and wanted to slap my 60s loving, edie sedgwick devoted face; feeling like id betrayed her. so tonight im wishing i could be pulling out the twiggy lashes, sedgwick style shoulder brusher earrings (if i could find any last minute thrift shopping-off to antique warehouse) black mini dress and holding a drink in my hand all night - as a tribute to edie. heres some edie love for all you fellow devotees! <3

inspiration

its very often i find images that inspire me, but its not often that i upload them. i have files and folders on my laptop right now saved up so tonight im sorting through, making sense of my madness, so i can bring you all these wonderful things ive found suffing the waves of the web. for now, heres some non fashion related (who are we kidding, everyones a #fashaddict these days) images to keep you smiling and me typing. && my favourite lyrics from gotye's song, somebody that i used to know. i can reaaally connect to this song at the moment, and have this and video games( lana del rey #girlcrush continues ) on repeat no matter if im in the shower, working out, sunbathing or walking back from town. none of this shits mine, im not saying this shits mine, im not saying i photographed this shit, im just saying this shit interests me. KK.

now and then i think of all the times you screwed me over
but had me believing it was always something that i'd done
but i don't wanna live that way
reading into every word you say
you said that you could let it go
and i wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know

felt so lonely in your company

factor 8, snacks, shoe porn & sunglasses

pancakes, duck, prawns, shredded chicken, noodles, rice, crackers, seaweed...takeaway time

vogue on the pages, fab in the hand, lilac on the nails and gotye on the ipod,

strawbs to get me summery

tutorial: red base layer, green messy tips, tiny yellow dots (with cocktail stick or hairpin if easier)

spent today like ive spent the last few, soaking up the sun, reading trashy magazines, watching trashy television (weep, last episode of greek! <3 you #KTT) and eating icelollies as quick as i can before they drip down me. today had the added bonus of discovering the site below, eating leftover chinese takeaway and painting my nails like little strawberries, furthering my ode to summer! also with goyte, somebody i used to know on repeat, anyone else frustratingly obsessed with it?

whilst im posting, just thought id mention http://nailburgerlar.tumblr.com/
its pretty #amazeballs ,it combines two of my loves, burgers and beautiful nails. i only just discovered it and im a little in love so they can expect a lot of new hits.

my tools && essentials for diy nails

coke&vodka with the blonde fox

clouds go away please

boys of summer ☼

i'm drivin' by your house
though i know you're not at home
but i can see you-
your brown skin shinin' in the sun
you got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby
and i can tell you my love for you will still be strong
after the boys of summer have gone

so i made a little nod towards the summer today in one of my posts but im going to jump on the bandwagon and make it blatantly obvious im british by going summer crazy the second i see some sun! 20 degrees, and im out in my bikini, 30 spf suncream and shades on my eyes.

in order: my sister&muma, sunbathing, dolphins, greece, rocky roads, sisters swimsuit, leopard print bikini, me and papa, lunch overlooking sea, lunch on the sea

two sunsets, some local entertainment, fairylights and a tan, flowers&white denim, lace, chloe on the wheel, swimming in turkey, bays and bays...

im feeling all nostalgic for long summer days and late summer nights, sipping iced beers, with lemon slices through bendy straws by seaside resteraunts (on holiday, whos kidding ourselves, their shite in england) sitting under a kabbanna, with sea in the air, on our skin and in our hair. if we're feeling #crazay we'll get a few of these little braids in their too, wrap some rope bracelets round our wrists and ankles, add a few anklets too - because everyone knows theyre not acceptable anytime else but august.

too excited for sleeping with the windows wide open, summertime breezes floating in. boys in board shorts, learning to surf and dreaming of a summer romance that turns into something more. dishing on a diet of fish and chips straight from the sea and fresh fruit to tickle our tastebuds. living in ripped up denim and cropped up tees, tiny bikinis (if we're lucky) and popping bright colours, smelling of morrocan oil and aftersun. godess waves in our long locks, dancing to the beat of our own drums. this summer my soundtrack will be the everlasting and everfitting boys of summer , by #donhenley heres some photos from my past summers to keep me excited for the future ones..

live fast, die young, bad girls do it well

but if i go to bed baby can i take you - m.i.a

MAJOUR obsession with ripped up shit at the moment, destroyed beautiful things. is that a bit disturbed? maybe. anyway distressed, dip dyed, denim, dirty. im addicted. so im rolling on the suspenders this coming week, loving the new piercing, bathing (or not bathing) in jewellery, just dyed my hair almost black - kind of a mistake and doing some diy. kisses bitches.

had an interview at aldenham with my mum which went well so now waiting on a possible final offer (fingers crossssed) and also an appointment up in cambridge with an epilepsy nurse, boring stuff. thai restaurant trip for mothers day with natalie too, my favourite blonde fox, want to go see her new house in london soon! i was ill so it was a bit sucky.
a few trips to the pub and ronald mcdonald, other than that its all quiet from me. anouskas coming home in a few hours and were not exactly on good terms so il keep you posted on how it goes, heres hoping!

happy to have the thatchers gone and some quiet to catch some rays
