Personal Space

I use to have this real thing about my room. You know like one of those really particular and annoying people who has a place and vibe for everything. We lately I've let that slide. I don't know if that's because I've gotten a wee bit lazy, that my room is pretty small (though that didn't really stop me when I was at university and my hostel room was built for a very small smurf) or wehather it is because since Bif and I moved to the palace my 'space' has increased from being contained in one room to being able to be exploded all over the apartment. Well, looking at The Selby today has really kicked my little ass into gear. There's nothing like a little heavy lifting and spring cleaning on a Wednesday evening. Oh, and Grand Designs...



I also want to buy a cactus. But I've been told that having a cactus in your room was bad luck or something. Can someone clear this up for me?

Amber


So I have this friend, Amber, who I've known for a wee (ok long) while and has just finished her fashion design degree after four very hardworking years. Amber loves flowers, frills, being girly, bows, general prettiness and being a really great friend. Check out her final year designs in her look book (a little bird also tells me that some things are for sale...) Congrats on finishing Amber!!! and let's have a coffee soon; text me.

yup...

I am so ashamed

So as much as I hate on Lady Gaga...


I kinda, sort of, maybe, like this song. I didn't lurve it straight away when I first heard it, nor did I HATE it. But what really pushed me right over the edge into like-ville was this video. I bow my head in shame.

FUCK!


FUCK! I just woke up from a nap and discovered that my amber ring, THE AMBER RING, is broken. FUCK. The amber has totally come loose and fallen out of its setting. How, when and why did this happen?!?!?!!? And most importantly WHERE IS IT?! Fuck! What am I going to do with my life now?! Whhhyyyyyyyyy????

Book Club


I need a new book. Recently I powered my way through a few books aimed at teenagers, written by a Mormon, about vampires...I could very easily pick the final one and be done with it. OR I could read an actual book. A book written for humans. And I'm stuck. Half of the reason I got sucked into my Twilight spiral was that very few books hold my attention for very long - and I was overseas visiting family where no one was my age or spoke the same language as me. Sigh I've even battered my way through ye old Hunter S. Thompson recently (RUM DIARY IS BECOMING A FILM! WHO KNEW?) So maybe, unless y'all got some winning recommendations, I might just go crawling back to another old faithful. Lo. Lee. Ta.

The Wedge

This is my future. I want these. These will make my life (and summer wardrobe) complete. These shoes are amazers!!! I can't explain how much I've been thinking (and re-looking at them) since I was inspired by the girl I work with's awesome summery wedges and took straight to net-a-porter, and far away from my work, to look up wedges. Love at first sight. I want these so much I might even do a Veruka Salt tantrum all alone in my room over them.
