Thanks to my wonderful friend Roz for getting tickets, I got to see Lana Del Rey on Thursday. I got even more excited when I found out Kassidy, perhaps my favourite Scottish band were supporting her. More on that tomorrow though. What to wear was a tough one, it tends to get hot in the crowd but its still pretty cold outside here despite being … Continue reading I put my Red Dress on Tonight
One downside of reading masses of fashion blogs is discovering bucket loads of clothing and accessories I want to buy. This is just a small selection of things I need in my life. ASOS Africa print top: There is a whole range available full of amazing prints and floaty fabrics. This top is my favourite and may be purchased for summer. BCBGMaxazria Novak Jacket: The … Continue reading If I was a Rich Girl
At the end of April I was invited along to the INAA finalists event for the Scottish Hair and Beauty Awards. My friends Roz and Bex were also invited. Bex took some amazing photos, which I featured below. I’ll admit I hadn’t heard of the hosts website before. INAA stands for I need an appointment and helps you find beauty salons in your local area … Continue reading Fresh from the Barber Shop or Fly from the Beauty Salon
Bon Iver is one of my favourite singer/songwriters. If you have never heard of him, shame on you. If you’ve only heard the Birdie version of ‘Skinny Love’, I urge you to get on you tube or spotify and listen to the original. Following the breakup band of DeYarmond Edison, Justin Vernon holed himself up in a remote cabin in Wisconsin. After three months he … Continue reading The Wolves Act I & II
Last Sunday me and the man went out for what was meant to be dinner, but turned into dinner and quite a few cocktails. We went to The Boathouse in Kilsyth which is not far from us. The food is always delicious and there’s a great view out onto the canal. I’m going through a bit of a fish phase just now and got prawn … Continue reading Don’t like his baggy jeans
As much as I love fashion I never have loads of spare cash to be frittering away on expensive clothes. I spend A LOT of time looking for cheaper alternatives to the clothes I see in magazines (Vogue). This month I treated myself to two things I have been wanting for ages. Both I found on eBay, if you’ve got the patience to look its … Continue reading I’m gonna pop some tags, only got $20 in my pocket
I got a little but hopeful for the bank holiday weekend and thought there might be the opportunity for open toes. I was wrong, it rained. Since my toes are hidden for work I could be a little but more adventurous with the nail art. I went for comic book style. The design it’s self is simple but it is really awkward trying to paint … Continue reading I’m just a teenage dirtbag baby
Crybaby is Danny Coughlan, Bristol born guitarist. I heard this song on Made In Chelsea, yes it’s my guilty pleasure I’ll admit it. The few bars of the chorus I heard really caught my attention so I instantly stuck the lyrics into google to find the track. I downloaded the self-titled album as it was less than a tenner on ITunes. If I didn’t know … Continue reading We’re supposed to be in Love
This week I have been so busy. I finished my last volunteer shift for childline, I simply don’t have the time with work now to commit to it. I was and still am very sad to have to leave, but its time to move on. I’ve taken on a new role at work too which I have been working on this week. Although it is … Continue reading Under the top and bottom buttons
This weeks On the Cover features French Vogue’s May issue. The gorgeous dress is Dior Haute Couture, you can imagine how much that will cost. I’ve not been able to find the details for the shoes and tights as I don’t have the magazine. I think the shoes look like Jimmy Choo’s though. I found this dress on ASOS in the sake for only £19, … Continue reading On the Cover of a Magazine
