And atmosphere gets crazy life, where every breath transpires... ♥

I GOT MY HIP PIERCED! :D:D:D

I got it done in Ireland without my parents permission and I now have been given a list of punishments for doing so. But the main punishments are that I'm grounded until the end of march, and I'm not allowed any going out or clothes money, or sleepover's until my birthday which is in June. So I'll be walking around in jeans and winter clothes when its like 25 degree's out.

But yeah, I had a great time in Ireland. Got some new clothes! I got a black batman logo top which I bought in a huge size and have cut up to make it a bit nicer. I also got the same in a superman version, but I haven't cut it up yet. I also got a vest which I personally love. I also got a top from this Spanish shop called Bershka. I would link the exact item, but the website is in spanish. And I don't understand spanish. I also got a bag from All Saints, but I can't find it on the website. It's just a plain suede satchel thing in a desert grey colour.

I had other stuff to blog about, but I guess I'll have to wait until another time 'cause I've completely forgotten.

51 ELS AVENUE

'cause baby your a firework...♥

I'm going to get straight to the point and say I basically love every single one of the tops in this link.

I'd cut off the sleeves and wear the top with leggings and a cardie.

I would pick my favourites. but they're all so nice!

shame they're all like £40.

Ahh, if only I was old enough to get a job!

people who have jobs take them for granted. they moan 'cause they have to go to work. but I'd LOVE to be earning money! but i seriously refuse to do a paper round. its basically child labor. i just want a job at a shop or something like that! but i don't know anyone who owns a shop who could hire me at the age of fourteen. it's hard enough trying to get a job round here when your sixteen!

I really do hope I can get a job at a coffee shop or bakery round the corner. Then I'll be happy.

And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard... ♥

So as you know if you read my last blog. I've been trying to find the perfect outfit for my friends party this week. I'll probably do different variations on outfits until I find the perfect one. But this is the best I've got so far:

The bottom photo is completely pointless.

But I took it by accident and thought it was cool.

So yeah, the dress is from topshop. Shoes are by Cost.

This is a day late, so at the moment I've just finished photographing a different dress.

So I'll upload that tomorrow.

49 ELS AVENUE

made a wrong turn, once or twice... ♥

I have a strange obsession with pink at the moment. Not the colour, the singer. Her songs aren't only just good songs, they have such true deep lyrics. She sings about such touching subjects. Like for example the song Dear Mr. President. It's an amazing song and is so true. The lyrics bring tears to my eyes. Same with the song f**king perfect. They're the type of songs that make you completely rethink your life. And put you in such a good mood.

Anyway. In a bit I'm going to do an outfit post of the outfit I'm wearing to my friend Hattie's party. I'll probs post another photo of me and Reanne before we go out to see the final outcome. So yeah, I'll go do that and post it later.

48 ELS AVENUE

Won't come any closer, you've got to reach out a little more...♥

I really want a long necklace with a big statement piece on the bottom. Just one simple thing on it. Nothing more. These are my favourites from Love Hearts and Crosses Jewellery and they range from £12 - £19. My personal favourite out of the ones above is the 'drink me' bottle. It's so cute! It's a little more than I would usually spend on a necklace (£13) but it's so nice I might just have to make an exception!

This Alice in wonderland themed ring is at a hefty price of £20. I don't think I'll be forking out that much just for a ring. But I'd love to own it. It's absolutely gorgeous!

Something kinda ooh, makes my heart go boom boom...♥

On youtube a lot of people do room tours just showing bits and bobs in their room and what they use every day.

Because my room was a mess, I decided to do a dresser tour. Just of my make up 'station' and where I do my hair and make up, also what are some of my favourite make up.

This is my jewellery box along with some of my favourite perfumes. The bigger bottles of perfume are Jean Paul Gautier and JLo. The littler perfumes are HUGO and Insolence.

This is my jewellery stand. With my keys on. To school I wear every bracelet on here, along with the black necklace that isn't very visible at the black. Every other day I wear all that as well, plus the three silver necklaces. I like jewellery. A lot.

This is the inside of my draw. It's quite organised. Everything has a place. Whether it's always in its place is another matter. In the top right there's all my contacts and next to it my glasses. The rest is all cosmetics and make up. But here's it in more detail...

this is all my make up along with my brushes, and my favourite nail polishes. I don't use every bit of this make up. But I'll show you my main stuff.

These are my main nail varnishes. The rest are in a union jack cake tin on my dresser.

(from left to right) Topshop Nails in 01. No7 Stay perfect in 115, 100 and 0.

My personal favourite is the Topshop one. It's a perfect subtle grey colour that goes with any outfit.

The far one on the left (l'oreal) and the one in the middle right (clinique) are my favourite eyeshadow brushes. They are good for doing small detailing and getting the inner corners perfect. The second one in from the left (No7) is my concealer brush and is so smooth and good at putting an even layer of concealer on. And last, but by no means least, is my Dior blush brush. It is the softest brush I've ever felt. I guess in this case, you really do pay for quality. Which is rare with make up.

Maybelline's Dream Matte Mousse is probably a must have in every make up wearing teenage girls collection. It goes on well unless you have dry skin, but nothing a little moisturiser can't fix. My No7 concealer isn't the best concealer in the world, and I would recommend shopping around before getting this. But it does its job well and is a good cover up. My L'oreal blush mineral powder is a must have for me. I love it, this colour is perfect for me and is so easy to apply. Also, my No7 lose powder in medium transparent is a must have. Its so easy to use and although it's easy to get everywhere, it seems to be lasting forever!

These are all my main other bits. I take these everywhere with me and never go out without them on. On the left is like the mineral blush, but it's in black and has an eye-liner brush. Its a good eyeliner, but I prefer using it as a eyeshadow. Benefit Bad Gal Lash mascara is like marmite. You either love it or you hate it, and I personally love it! Its the best mascara I've ever used and goes onto my lashes perfectly. Bonjour Paris is quite a cheap brand and has been known to having rubbish make up. But their pencil eyeliner is absolutely amazing. It draws on so well and stays on for hours. Next down is my Rimmel London eyebrow pencil. It's hard to use eyebrow pencils on blonde eyebrows, but this one works rather well. Finally, Soap and Glory's Sexy Mother Pucker's lip gloss. (if you'll pardon the pun ;D) It is such a nice colour and although it's a bit sticky, it does go on really well if you apply a thin layer of lip balm before.

Well, that's it. A very long blog to make up for my lack of blogs for the past two weeks or so.

i'm the only one, i walk alone... ♥

I'm seriously obsessed with watching the topshop behind the scenes and photoshoot video's. I would link but they're on an app on my phone. I'm sure you can find them on the topshop webiste. But they're so weird and fun to watch. It also gives you a sneak peak at the spring collection. It's gorgeous! The main must haves I would say would have to be a geeky button up shirt and high waisted shorts.

There's these four tops that I've wanted for ages but never bought because I can never find them in stores, and my mums funny about ordering online. The first ones a gorgeous owl top. The second has a print of an explosion on it. The third one is a top with a fire thing on the front. And finally, the horse one. I've done them in order that I like them. Starting with my favourite. They're on sale at the moment. One day I will deffinately buy the owl one. They seem to be in topshops permanant section by a studio designer 'your eyes lie'.

I also want a plain pair of jeans. All the fading and rips are not in fashion at the moment. So I just want a pair of plain jane jeans. I was thinking a pair of vintage leigh jeans. They're so tight though! I tried them on in the shop and it felt like I was just in stiff leggings. I suppose they are really. But I didn't have enough for them and this other top, so I just bought the top.

I'm going to go through the topshop website and add up the stuff I want for summer. Might take a while....

45 ELS AVENUE

I have no excuses for my lack of blogs. Only the fact that I'm lazy and tired. I will get into the habbit. I'm just in need of more coffee all the time. need sleep now though. so this blog will be like two lines long.

four for you glen coco, you go glen coco! ♥

okay, so this is a quote from mean girls. 'cause it was the exact quote that was on the tv.

At the moment I've got a bit of an obsession with reading. I love books! All kinds of books I just love them! I so badly want a floor to ceiling bookshelf in my room. But I'd have to find somewhere to put it in my room. And get the books. In my life I've probably only read about fifty books. Bad I know. But I've gone through 3 books in the last two months and I just can't stop. I don't go out nowadays without a book in case I get bored. I also love my dads old fashioned books he used to read. They look like hard back dictionaries. But started reading one the other day and it was so good. I had to google one or two words but it wasn't too hard to comprehend.

I'm going to try to buy more books and convince my dad to either buy or build me a bookcase. It would be filled with books and notepads and cookbooks and just books books books! It would all be in order alphabetically. I'm now looking around my room wondering where I could put it. Going to go convince the 'rents. Wish me luck!

Say goodbye, as we dance with the devil tonight... ♥

I've got a bit of an obsession for tattoo's and piercings. I know it sounds crazy being as I've never got a tattoo and I have barely any piercings. But I want so many of them! My parents disagree with everything. They say no to any piercing. And just laugh at me if I mention a tattoo. But they haven't thought about it as deeply as I have. I've wanted my lip pierced for over a year. And think about it, what's a tiny bit of metal going through my mouth going to do? I want it done so badly. And I know its the most overrated saying going, but you really do only live once. And I want to live my life to the fullest I possibly can. I do not want to look back on my life when I'm thirty or so, and think 'why didn't I just go for it? Why couldn't I just grow a pair and do what I wanted'. Because at the end of the day, regretting the things you've done isn't half as bad as regretting the things you didn't. Now just try telling my parents that...

Sorry about this rant. Not really a worth while blog. But I kinda got started and couldn't stop. I tend to do that a lot. I'll explain that to my parents sooner or later. Hopefully they'll see exactly how I feel and give me a bit of sympathy. I just pray to God that if I don't have to go behind their backs.

Bet my old private school ain't proud of me... ♥

I'm seriously in love with Hey Monday lately. I can't stop listening to some of their songs! They're like a pop band with an indie reputation. It's hard to describe. But they're seriously amazing. No matter what kind of music you listen to, I bet you'll find at least one of their songs you like. But anyway, onto the real reason for this blog.

Yesterday I posted that I had got my belly pierced but I couldn't post a picture because it was all bloody and disgusting. After finally getting it cleaned and photograph ready. This is the outcome of my stomach. Apparently my belly button looks really small here. But it's not small when you see it in real life. The colour of the gem looks different hear. In life its more turquoisey. It's really nice and goes well with the black. I'm cleaning it so carefully and trying not to get it infected. I really hope it doesn't.

40 ELS AVENUE

Stand up, take a bow you have, no reason to celebrate... ♥

Today me and Roza went to Shamanic's down London Road in Westcliff to get my belly button pierced. I was so pleased with myself 'cause I didn't even get worked up or scared about it. Roza was getting more anxious than I was. When we got into the actual room where I was getting it pierced, I started to get a little scared. I was shitting myself when she clamped it. Roza had to look away she was so scared. But it was so quick and not nearly as bad as I thought it would be.

I also finally sorted out my work placement. Well, at least I think I have. I have to go for an interview on Tuesday after school. Hopefully that goes well then I will be able to do it at Past Times. I love some of the stuff in there. And my original choice was to work in Topshop, but they don't do work experience there. Which I was so upset about. But I'm happy I've got a chance to work at Past Times. Should be quite fun. I hope.

I'm not Schwarzkopf's biggest fan at the moment since I died my hair with their XXL hair dye and it came out a yellowy orange colour. But I have to admit, this could be the nicest hair spray I've ever used. It's a really good hold but it doesn't make your hair have that wet hair sprayed look. It's called invisible hold, and it really does stick to it's name.

My other favourite here is Bed Head's ego boost. It's a serium that you put on wet or damp hair to mend split ends. It's started to work it's magic and it's proving to be worth buying.

These two hair products are definite must haves for me.

39 ELS AVENUE

Cardigan: River Island

Top: Zara

Leggings: Topshop

Jewellery: Topman or abroad

This is one of my favourite outfits at the moment. I'm in love with my new cardigan. I wasn't to sure when I bought it because it actually has a zip, when I would've preferred buttons. But the zip isn't actually so bad. I'd still prefer buttons though. This outfit can really be worn with any type of top. I was originially going to wear it with my ACDC top, but prefered this one 'cause of the tiger. It's all neutral colours so any tops will go with it really. I did do a close up of the detail on the top. But it kept coming out weird so I gave up in the end.

My jewellery with this is quite simple. I've got some simple dog tags just to add a bit of 'bling' to the outfit. I don't like gold or silver jewellery at the moment. I like metals and greys. So Topman is perfect at the moment. The bracelets towards the bottom of my arm are from topman. The rest are from either France, Zante or Florida. My make-up's a bit extreme here. I normally do have quite bold eyes, but not nearly as much eyeliner on the bottom as I do here. It was mainly to match my lipstick. Its Yves Saint Laurent Lipstick for Heroines in Royal Violet. It's lush! Definitely an investment worth spending.

I've already got 3 blogs saved ready to post. I've just gone crazy blogging now. But I'm going to save them for a time that maybe I don't have any inspiration or am just ocmpletely out of blog idea's. Or just can't be bothered. Hopefully that should be very rare though.

I'll be the narrator, Telling another tale of the American dream... ♥

I havn't blogged in a while. Because I was just going to give it all up because I just didn't find it fun. But I've realised that was because I was blogging when I felt like it, about what I felt like. So now I've decided to put a bit more routine into my blogs. The sub title's will be rather random at times because that was one of the hardest problems I came across when blogging. What to make the title. So from now onwards, whatever song I'm listening to when writing a title I will pick out my favourite line from it and make it the title. Easiest way to do it.

I will also be doing more frequent 'outfit posts'. As you could call them. I will think of a more creative name when I think of one. These will basically be posts about my favourite outfits or maybe just before I go out I'll do a quick blog of what I'm wearing to the cinema or shopping or something.

I might even do a couple of make up and hair post tutorials. Just a few step by step pictures and show some of my favourite styles and products. I will never do any video's of things though. I hate my voice and don't want people to hear it. And I don't have the software to edit out glitches and mishaps.

And as always, I will sign off with my usual picture...
