It's day's like these that will make us happy, kickin back doin what we do....

CURRENTLY: 
Mood: AWESOME
Listening Too: The Cat Empire - Days Like These


Ok, so I've been running around town like crackhead for the last few weeks and between Uni, Drinking and sleeping, blogging got neglected...mybad! But whatevs. I'm hear now. Sweeeet!

So, summer is like my freakin life, I love it. I have an awesome unhealthy relationship with the beach, being tanned(see previous post) and chillin'! But today it was Sunday, which my friends and I have officially declared SUNDAY-FUNDAY Hell-to-the-yeah!!! It was sunny as shit this morning and on this declared FUNDAY what could I do?! Duh!, the beach! 






True to my word me and FakeBake are still having crazy issues!! I was kickin it au' naturale today trying to soak any last rays of vitiman D from the sun that I could before it really does disappear until next summer :( 
The beach was AWESOME! The picture's were fun but the water was like splashing in the damn Arctic and my toes went numb!! eeeeeek

Tonight I've cheated on summer, the shame! I've been checking out Fall/Winter  clothes...It's about time I admitted I just can't control the seasons, and what I found was enough to make me weep with joy 





So I'm gonna bid you all goodnight, and bid my overdraft goodbye!

XOXO

If I could write you song that make you fall in love, I'd already have you under my arm

CURRENTLY: 
Mood: Excitable
Listening Too: Mike Posner - Cooler Than Me


So apologies for my slight hiatus, I've been super busy last few weeks.
Firstly, I want need to educate you's all on tanning.
A current epidemic of mine is that English weather is a fucking nightmare and getting a tan on the South Coast before mid-May & past mid-July is damn near impossible. Fake Bake is my one true love...sun beds don't do it for me, maybe its that whole if you use them 'you will get skin cancer and you WILL die' thing that's got my back-up over then but whatevs, Fake Bake & Me were tight, okay!?

SO there I was flicking through my tagged photos on facebook De-Tagging any where my face looked offensive (at least more so than usual) and I saw someone  who I could only assume resided in sunny-sunny Asia and had three thoughts

1. Who is this whore and who the hell tagged her as me?!
2. Pfffft. Girl is O-R-A-N-G-E
3. Holy Shiiiiiiiiit, that bitch is ME!

Now girls your about to see somthing special, something that may have taken a beautiful relationship and shattered it forever.....or for at least a week or two. That's right me and my homie 'Fake Bake' are sadly breaking up :'( ..... now I'd like to take a second to mourn this relationship and then show you the shocking, shocking truth!

& here the offending photo, it literally doesn't look like me, maybe my long lost cousin from Kazakstan but me? Eh, Neh! 
Granted, I had hair extensions in but come on, seriously? 



I think know, I should lay off, or at least apply 1-2 coats instead of 30,000 before I go out. The problem is it dosen't look to dark when I do it, then it keeps developing all night so I leave the house looking English and come home looking Ethnic. Oh what I wouldn't do to have a bit of Greek or Italian in me so I could be olive-skinned all year round....but noooo I had to be born as white as a sheet of bloody paper. I could literally make a polarbear look tanned, fml. 

Speaking of which, I had a go at snowboarding this weekend :) LOOOOOVED IT! My friends and I enjoyed it so much were in the process of booking a Holiday to France this christmas to go Snowboaring =) WooooHOOOOOO!

XOXO

I could wait a thousand hours, stay the same in sun and showers, pick apart a thousand flowers, just to be quiet...with you

CURRENTLY:
Mood: Excitable
Loving: Lace
Listening Too: Lights - Quiet


I did a cheeky bit of on-line shopping today, I couldn't help myself!!!! 



I got a Lace Leotard, £5.45!!!! 
The patterns cool, it reminds me of either starfishies or the leaves of a palm tree...I like it :D

I also got myself a nice little Cable Knit Cardigan. I've had my eye on one from Topshop, but it was like £70, and this was £19, so I swallowed my pride, and bought this one instead.


Anyone else find that spending online feels like your spending monopoly money..., and then you get your bank statement and want the ground to swallow you up lol!
I always get to the Shopping Basket, fill out my bank details then close my eyes and click 'Confirm Payment' Then I open my eyes and it's done so I can't go back :D , its like my own little way of cheating myself, I LOVE IT!!!


I went down the Driving Range with a few of the lads tonight to play a bit of golf (turns out I'm really bad at it....I had 50 balls, and it took me about 6 attempts to hit the damn ball each time! and although its not fashion based the photos we took were hilarious, so I'm going to share them anyway :)



eat it...


Show me your teeth. I can't even tell you how many strange looks I got from the old people sat at the next table when I was doing this :) 


lols



Preppy! Rocking the AllSaint's jumper like there's no tomorrow!

She's bound to run amok Invested enough in it anyhow, To each his own

CURRENTLY:
Mood : Stoked
Loving: Tattoo's
Listening To : Broken Bells - The High Road


A quote below is one I believe to be true...

''The world is divided into two kinds of people:  those who have tattoos, and those who are afraid of people with tattoos''

I'm no punk rock kid, in fact I'm a long way from that image. I'm most comfortable rocking Topshop, Jack Wills, A&F, the preppy look than anything else. Yet, I love tattoos, there's something sexy and alluring, yet so untamed. Each person is a blank canvas, yet some choose to cover themselves with their story. 

I think that 'Kat Von D' is unreal, like this girl has PURE STYLE, not that her style is anything like mine, I doubt anyone will EVER see me in leather chaps, cut up motley crew tanks and sweat bands...but style has nothing to do with other people, it's your own. Something that defines you, and Kat Von D is one of the most beautiful women, yet she's covered in tattoos, even on her face.





Some of the most beautiful women in Hollywood are rockin' tattoos like Megan Fox and Angelina Jolie. But there's still a negative stigma attached to them.

So my parents aren't a fan of tattoos, I get that, the older generation are scared of them. They think tattoos equal drugs, alcohol, motorbikers, wild parties, rock & roll and sex & that's so not the case. At least, not these days anyways. 
Since my first one I have caught the tattoo-bug, there not addictive, but once you have one its easy to think of something that means a lot, or that inspires you and think 'yeah, that would look sick on my rib cage!' 


My parent's no longer care that I have tattoos, as does my older brother but whenever either of us discuss new ones they get all old-school on us
'You'll turn 25 and hate them all' 
No, No I won't. Because at the time that was exactly what I wanted to do and how I felt, you can change you mind, and your life and path my change but you can't erase the past and all tattoo's are a part of that past.


'what a bout when your old?! How would you feel if your grandma took off her cardigan and was covered in tattoos?' Erm, I wouldn't care because style is about person preference. And beauty to one person may be unsightly to another, but at the end of the day without that, what would define style or separate us as people?...

My next tattoo, is going to be on both hip bones, in Arabic, On one side,
When I fall, my family give me the Wings i need to fly  
and the other side
'and my friends give me the courage to pick myself up again <3'  
 It will look something like this


عندما تقع ، عائلتي تعطي أجنحة ط الحاجة إلى الطيران وأصدقائي تعطيني الشجاعة لاختيار نفسي مرة أخرى 


I'm also contemplating trying to incorporate some sort of angel wings, or phoenix wings to really finish the tattoo off. 

...


How do you guys feel about tattoos? Do you have any? What do they mean to YOU?

XOXO

Mood : Stoked
Loving : Recycling
Listenin to: Sublime - Santeria 

SO I was feeling a bit productive today, I got ready for battle and then attacked my wardrobe! It was soooo due a mass clear-out.
I found a pair of totally abused jeans that I used to love until I scuffed the hem. Then, I decided to cut the shit out of them and turned them into a banging pair of shorts... Seeing as summer in England has come to an end (although it seamed to of only lasted like 3 weeks) I donated my recycled jeans to my friend who's just started an online thrift store
