birthday wishes

On the 2nd of Sept it's my best friends birthday night out, I put a holiday in at work with it being a Friday night so fingers crossed I'll have it off! Or I'll whinge as I've never took a night off work in the year and a half I've been there. 

We're going to Newcastle and said we'd get all dolled up and dressy for once as normally we're the "omg can't be bothered" when we go out. I've had my eyes on these cut out dresses for a while but I've never tried one on. Saw them in Topshop and New look but the ones I've seen have been twisted at the front.

I was on ASOS and saw this little beauty for £40.

I didn't think I could afford it so I left it, went back on the other day and it was down to £15! B-A-R-G-I-N. I've never bought anything online before so I'm a bit scared as I have such big hips and normally that's the biggest problem - getting things to fit them right. But I like this dress cos it's a little baggy so hopefully it'll fit good. I wanna get some bright shoes to go with it and an over sized clutch or use my big studded one.  I wanna wear my hair up but with the style of my hair it always looks a bit weird so I'm thinking on trying to curl all of it, quiff it and put a scarf in. Hm who knows x

we don't need no education

It's 03:31am and I've just got in from work...so it's time to blog about my night out last night. As it was A-levels results we decided to go out (I got my results last year but so, my friend Olly passed this year woo) and celebrate in fancy dress - school girls obviously. The make shift outfits were done within seconds and the wine was being poured.

We hit Durham and meet more of the girls there, after some glitter bombs and red vodka the dancing shoes were on. I had such a good night! Apart from arguing with a "man" called Liam Plunkett; a cricketer from Durham. He told me to lose weight, I told him to get better at his sport and actually make his country want him on the team. He told me to "grow the fuck up" I responded with "says you the 26 trying to find girls in loveshack...but pulling no-one cos we all know you're a wanker" He's an absolute arsehole! Anyway, all in all an amazing night. Sorry for massive picture spam but it needs to be done....xxxxx

Hiyaa, as I said yesterday I was quite upset about everything mainly my car..but today I woke up to a phone cal from the garage it's at saying they could fix it! Never felt such relief and joy ever. I'm having to pay the interest of £750 but I don't care as if I had to have the car wrote off I;d be given about £700 for the car then I'd still have to find another £800 to be able to get a new one. My car was in great condition for a 9 year old car so I am sosososo happy it's being fixed. I get a courtesy car in the mean time to get me around ad hopefully by 2 weeks time I shall have Carlos back! It only really hit me last what happened, I was getting ready for bed and sat down and started crying so much. I couldn't get it out my head, the noise and the feeling. My collar bone and arm is sore but I can't do much about that. So yes I am feeling a bit better now :)

Today I've sat in bed eating food and sulking still, now I'm watching Romeo and Juliet (1996) and making myself feel alright. I wanna go see The Inbetweeners movie tonight but as usual, everyone's busy x

like a tin of sardines.

I have had the WORST week so far of my life. I am not in an amazing place right now, my dad has pretty much lost his job, my grans poorly, and I'm having 'love life' problems. I feel like I can't trust anyone, I'm sick of people giving me false hope and keeping things back and yes I mean my friends too.
I'm sick of people in general, I don't deserve the shit I put up with or what I go through for people who don't give a shit. I feel like i'm on a bungee strap inches away from rock bottom but obviously I have my friends (mainly the girls) and family to keep me happy and have faith in humanity. Oh and also did I mention...

yeah I've wrote my car off so that just puts the cherry on the cake!!!! I hate 2011 it has been a shit fucking year. Please, give me a break and let something good happen x

online shopping, coffee and chocolate cake.

On nights out I normally wear a dress because I wear black skirts for work all the time and I feel like I'm at work when I wear them. But recently I am loving Topshops tops! I get to hot easily so I don't like wearing long sleeved or even normal sleeved so these blouses are perrrfect. I love the Peter pan collars on them and how they will go with my black skirts and make me look like I'm not at work. So when I go shopping I am keeping my eyes peeled for tops like this as sometimes Topshop is a bit expensive for me. But i deffo know what I wanna be wearing on nights out now and also I need to shop for new shoes. I prefer wedges or thick heeled as I always feel like normal heels are gunna snap on me and I hate when they bend inwards and make you walk all funny. I think I want some black ankle boots, you can never go wrong with a pair of black ankle boots!

war of the tans and hairsrpay.

When i fake tan i always use a spray, I used to use a instant rub in one but I like having a lasting tan by the looks of it. So I got myself into using St.Tropez which within the first use I LOVED and wanted to use all the time. But as it's like £21 a can I can't really afford it all the time :( so i try and stick to using it for special occasions or big nights out but I really recommend it. I wanted a tan for Heathers birthday tomorrow night, so being brave I went and got the Loreal paris sublimb bronze spray. I'm quite scared to use it and I dunno why but with everything new i have a little hissy fit so fingers crossed.

I like my hair big, no matter what.
I think I have a weird shaped face to I like to have my longer side of my hair big. Whether it's straight or curly. So obviously I need to have a good hairspray, For many years I've bought the cheap Insette hairspray and I think I liked it so much because it held like glue (and felt like it in my hair) but there was an offer on in Tescos for Tresemme; 2 for £6 which I was like "omg  if it's god enough for hairdressers that must mean it'll work amazing on my hair" it's shit. I hate it, it drops out within like half an hour and just doesn't set right. So I went into Bodycare today and got the MASSIVE bottle of insette for £1.99. Where can you go wrong?

Smoke on the water

I'm trying to plan a huge fashion shoot including smoke bombs I'm just having a hard time finding good ones like these. I need bright vibrant colours that will last for a while as I'm wanting a girl in the photo and who knows how long it'll take to get it right. Gah I have so many ideas and summers running out! I wish i was brainy enough to make these, but considering I'm scared of fire god knows what I'd be like with these with chemicals going off and bright smoke in my face.

So last night i was planning on doing nothing but sitting on my arse watching dirty sexy things, but I got a text from Adam saying they were heading over Alex's soon so i packed the car up went and got Oliver and a mcdonalds and chilled in all night. They played xbox drinking games...and i just downed my wine when someone lost. Was such a nice relaxed night.

Tonight I'm hitting bums n tums with Heather and Tasha and the gym after, this keeping fit thing is going well. just not the healthy eating...

Soooooooooooooo today, I woke up at 11 after 6 hours sleep ergh I need at least 12 and went for dinner with the boys (Adam, Phil, Will, and Oliver). We all got sundays dinner at the honest lawyer which was delicious, but whilst i was sat nice and relaxed Jhan my boss rang me asking me to go in at 3. So being the pussy I am, I did.

I finished at half 8, (after a massive stag do came in and complained about the fact we don't do draught beer and then the price of the bottles of lager) and I went and got a chinese for me, Adam, Shaun and Heather to munch on. But work was such a laugh, nice and relaxed. Now I'm on the couch watching a movie and blogging. 

night owl

Just got in from work, le sigh. 04:14am...
Anyway, I went shopping today and I honestly can't wait for summer to be over with! I am full on ready for autumn and winter to wrap up and layer my clothes. I love summer, but i get sick of the heat and not wanting to wear clothes but not being comfortable enough with my body and so on. And as always, this year round I plan to buy nice dresses that I can wear with tights or leggins and boots and a different choice of coats (as long as they match my Barbours)

hihohiho it's off to work i go.

So this is where i spend most of my time. Ebony, the champagne and cocktail bar in Durham. I started working here in February 2010 and it's pretty much took every weekend away from me. Most people would complain but I honestly love my job. I started off in the kitchen and glass collecting, now i'm a trained cocktail maker (well, i know what's on our menu :p) i have met some amazing people over my time here and have such a good friendship group. Sadly my body clock is messed now as i don't finish working till about 3am, and we get some horrible snotty customers in.

I love the cocktails we make, there's a massive variation to suit anyone's taste and if not a cocktail, wine beer and champagne.  If ever in Durham you should seriously try it out, we do food on a daytime, evening snacks and on a weekend is such a good atmosphere.

awake my soul

I have and have had quite a obsession with Mumford and sons for a while now, it's one of the very few albums I can sit and listen to all the way through without skipping a song. His voice is so so so relaxing but sexy? at the same time. I normally listen to them in the car on the way home from work and on really nice sunny days, but when I'm in bed at 00:56am on a Friday morning they are just the right kind of thing I wanna hear. I love Awake my soul, Timshel, White blank page, and Dust bowl dance so much. In fact I love all of them i can't even pick. I just want him to marry me and sing to me every night aw.

studio time.

So i'm gunna start off with posting some of my photography, i took these in the studio of Newcastle college which is where i study. Mercedes, the model is absolutely gorgeous and i LOVE taking photos of her. She's very tall and has an amazing figure and obvious a lovely personality. She needed some head shots for her portfolio to send to her drama school. So my missions was to capture her in every way i could..here's a few of my faves.

I'm new to this!

HIYA.
