i'm backkk

still using snow fairy in may; new favourite going out lashes; ring of fire; unpicking my life away these past couple of weeks; balloons for our trade stand; trade stand; can't beat a chinese buffet; rip creme cup; sunny day outfit; dj fresh at our ball; me + the uni' gals; dead after the ball; my new obsession spinning; blue skies; beer garden

Oh hiaaa, it's been a while hasn't it! I must firstly apologise for disappearing for a few weeks there. University work kind of took over my life for the majority of May (wasn't very nice I must admit!). I actually finished my second year of uni' on the 18th May but after deadline day had passed I needed a bit of time to sort myself out + to basically get my life back into order! I don't think it has quite hit me yet that all my work is done + that I'm free until September! I keep getting weird dreams where I've left all my work until the last minute + basically have a mental breakdown trying to get it all done, I guess that kind of shows how much of a stress head I had become!aha.. 

I have so much to fill you in on from the past couple of weeks but I think it's best just to treat June as a fresh slate + start over. These few instagram photo's are kind of a snapshot of what's been going in ma lyf; a blur of food, cosmetics + blue skies!ha.. With my summer ball, helping out the graduates with their fashion show + making costumes for my sisters birthday party, I don't think I've had a chance to totally chill out yet! Ooh, and on that note..


My little sister is eighteen today, I can't quite believe it! We're going for a big family meal tonight then it's her Disney fancy dress party tomorrow! I think I may be a little more excited than her!ha.. Finally get to let my hair down, woo! I've been busy making costumes all week so will definitely share a few photo's of how they turned out in the week!

This weekend is going to be a good 'un! My boyfriend + I are going to London for the night Sunday too! I booked it for his birthday back in April not noticing the date, so lucky us get to spend the Jubilee weekend with the Queen herself!(; I intend on being a bit naughty on Oxford St + hopefully see the Damien Hirst exhibition at the Tate, so fingers crossed I'll have a lot of exciting things to share with you when I get back! Hope you all enjoy the extra long weekend!(:

MET BALL 2012: THE DRESSES

Not my usual type of post today! During my morning scroll on twitter I couldn't help but notice the pictures of gorgeous women and dresses from last night's Met Ball + felt the need to share my favourites. Maybe it's because my university summer ball is next week + I would KILL for a dress like these but I am totally swept up in all the glamour! Flicking though the images I noticed a few trends so split my faves into categories..

METALLIC


How amazing are these dresses and how gorgeous do they all look wearing them! Cameron was my winner of this category but the more I look at Camilla's outfit the more I fall in love! It's accessorised perfectly with a retro sleek up do and that dark plum lip, GORGEOUS!!

 GOTHIC


Something a little different worn by all three of these celebrities. Beyonce's gown is just over the top amazing! I think MK looks a little like a crazy scientist but weirdly I still kind of like it?ha.. Lana just oozes a sexy vampire vibe with her porcelain skin, cape and again that Gothic lip.

OLD ROMANTIC

Lots and lots of tulle! (I love Sarah Burton in the background of Florence's photograph having a sneaky look at her creation!ha..) All are beautiful modern takes on the old classics. It's clear from these images that not so perfect up-do's are one to watch! Have you guys seen the pictures from last nights gala? Who wins your vote for best dressed?
