On to the next one...

Now that all of my disclaimers and justifications are out of the way, I may move on. Although why I feel I must justify myself, I'm not sure.

This has been on my mind for a while tbh. I could not believe it when I first heard that Cheryl Tweedy was indeed going to become Cheryl Cole again.

A small disclaimer...

You know I always amaze/shock myself.

It's about time I updated.

I figure I'm way overdue a blog update by now, and so I present to you the random musings which occur in my mind, when I have far too much time to spare! Strictly speaking this isn't necessarily true, I haven't updated because I've been busy. Doing what? I have no idea. Although my dining room is apparently now looking very 'IKEA'. How? I'm not sure. That room contains NO IKEA furnishings whatsoever. All that I've done is change the colour scheme through a few (a lot) coats of paint. Nevertheless, I am exceptionally proud of myself. I now aim to complete the rest of my house, singlehandedly might I add!  *must-inject-taste-into-my-father's-life* This way he can't forget me when I'm gone! Seriously, I think this dining room makes me happier than my Second Year Biochem results, which arrived four days prior to said decorating spree. You can call me Miss Domestic Goddess ;) I'm sure I've said it before, but, it's-the-little-things-in-life.

Queen Vicky B - tbf this is how I imagine myself in my Goddessly role. She is everything I aspire to be *sigh*

I just want to be happy. Why does that always seem to be so hard?

To ease the boredom....

Been bored, been drawing.

1 week down, too many more to go.

Absolutely cannot hack anymore job hunting. Got turned away in under five minutes today! As if I need more confidence blows. Quite capable of lowering my own self esteem thank you very much.

I seem to be obsessing a lot lately....

Current clothing obsessions - 

Seemingly any Elie Saab creation from the last 18 months.

Beautiful waistline.

So floaty, so romantic, and so beautiful. Emma Watson looked beautiful last night, but I remember being obsessed with the Autumn/Winter collection last year too. So much attention to detail, and beautiful silhouettes.So flattering, and not afraid to use lots of material. Although this I imagine means they only suit the stick thin catwalk models, and make everyone else look like

One week home....

So inbetween tweeting-like-there's-no-tomorrow and choosing paint colours for my Gran, I've been job hunting. My God is it harder than it looks, (a bit like this blogging business.) Between trekking to Manchester Arndale for a really pointless interview (to get one four hour shift ever,) putting the phone down on a call centre (accidentally/ironic - *delete as appropriate,) lying to the woman from Beaverbrooks, no one wants to hire me! I have probably sent out 5 job applications everyday.

I can now say I've got the people on Jezza Kyle sussed.

My current obsession.....

My current obsession is platform court shoes. Personally, I think the only way to do heels of any kind, is with a massive platform, not good when you're as tall as I am, (had to make completely new *taller* friends!) Between the pairs I already have and the obscenely-gorgeous-but-horribly-overpriced-Kurt-Geiger's-I-nearly-bought-but-can't-afford, they are all I can think of. Literally, I've taken to prancing around the house in the them, because I'm currently too skint to go out to a club/bar. I feel all sophisticated saying bar, something which has come from being in London, see because in Wazza it's all about the pub OR a club in town. In London you can go to the happy intermediate bar, which means I can dress up, have a wee boogy even, and still be able to hear my friends/chat s***.  If I'm honest about it, the only part I really love is the getting dolled up ;). Anyway back to the shoes.

My beautiful shoes

I am still obsessed with ADELE.

It is no mean feat to have me still listening to and getting the shivers from a song after 8 months, but that is exactly what Miss Adele has managed to do with Someone Like You. Saying that I *hate* the album version. It should only ever be heard this way, in my humble opinion. I adore that with her, it will always only be about the music and the message. It helps that she is gorgeous, but she always looks the same, keeping it uncomplicated and it makes me so happy to see how well she's done, because if you ever watch an interview with her, you can immediately see that she is the most normal celebrity ever. I'd love to see her live. Love, love, love love love her. If you haven't already check out 21, it's absolutely phenomenal. Every single song is amazing, there are no skippers. 

Why Beyonce's new album is awful....

Beyonce - 4

It is, don't lie to yourself.
Don't get me wrong, it will still do exceptionally well, if not only because of her devout fans, but because of her incredible capabilities when she performs live. Watching her at Glastonbury even made me want to give 4 another chance. Watching 'Run the world' on Oprah made me desperately want to like the song. She is amazing, of that there is no doubt. However, she did not completely think this album through, I've no idea if it's because she switched from her Dad's management or whatever, but somewhere along the way she failed at making a cohesive piece of music. Rather spectacularly, she manages to make a disjointed album, on which not a single track is able to stand out, rather, they all sound the same. Amazing, considering not a single song fits together, don't you think?

A Work In Progress....

I'm writing this out of a desperate need to do something productive with my summer, and hopefully as a means of re-inspiring myself. Sometimes the world will just kick you when you're down, and this is the only free means of distracting myself I could think of. I plan to blog about all the s*** only I care about, so probably defending my taste in music mostly. Then no doubt I'll comment on fashion, along with any random musings life forces me to encounter.

I'm also not great with blogger, so give me time and have patience. I'm going to use labels, because I can't figure out how to get multiple posts on new pages! The labels will be music, fashion and personal (for my musings, the former two are pretty self-explanatory.) Maybe if my blog takes off, I will be able to hire someone to teach me such intricacies of blogger ;)
