making jewellery

 

 

Look, I've actually done something productive these holidays! How strange! Mind you this was only an hour-long feat compared to the millions of hours spent playing Skyrim and The Sims, but I still feel as though I have done something worthwhile. I don't have many jewellery making skillz just yet, but I think I am getting better. I've never been really good at anything arty farty so I am quite pleased with these creations! Yay. There are other things that I want to learn how to do, including sewing and drawing, but jewellery making/beading is quite fun and I want to make more and more!

Thanks for saying nice things about my last post, I feel a bit silly about posting those pictures online as it was something I tried to hide for a long time (yeah I'm a poet). I asked my boyfriend if I should remove the photos and he said, "nooooooo don't be silly." So they will remain. I will just have to post a lot more than usual so that the photos get pushed to the next page, haha.

One last thing - today I won my first giveaway! Hurray! Thank you to Denise of Gray Lavender. I am soon to be the proud owner of some totally sexxxxy shapewear. Oh yeahhhh!

go away, summer.

Good evening! Just a quick post to show you my new hair! It hasn't been this short in years, I quite like it! It's a browny/purpley/reddy kind of colour with some of the pink still showing through. I went to Total Image Studio in Camira for a cut, colour, eyelash and eyebrow tint, and eyebrow wax. ALL THIS FOR $59. Good old Spreets.

Also I bought that red polka dot dress the other day (as well as this one which you can kind of see in this post) with the voucher I won from the Dotti competition! Yay for free things that I don't need!

Hello! While choosing my outfit for a friend's 25th on Friday night, I noticed that I seem to have developed a small obsession with bird-related clothing and jewellery items.

1&2: Dress on left from TEMT, dress on right from Dotti (in stores now)
3: Mah collection!
4: Ring on right from Diva (in stores now), ring on left from Colette
5: Necklace from kirstin ash (the first birthday present from my boyfriend, aaww)
6: Can't remember where either of these are from, but they are nice so LOOK AT THEM.
7: Gold earrings from Colette
8: Necklace from Colette

I'm not even a huge fan of birds. If I walked outside and saw a bird, I would say "hello" and keep walking. If, however, I walked outside and saw a cat, I would run up to it, go "SQUEEEEEE" while giving it a cuddle, regardless of whether it hisses at me or runs away. And then if it ran away I would chase after it, making crazy eyes while rattling some cat biscuits. This is how I go about making friends with humans, also. But yes. I do love me some bird print.

My weekend has been pretty good. As I said before, I went out on Friday night to a friend's 25th. My three best friends from high school were there, it was weird but also cool to be able to hang again like old times. During school we were inseperable but then we drifted apart pretty much straight away. Sob sob waaaahhh. After the party we went to a titty bar in the city (a city titty bar?) and were the only females with clothes on. As I'm sure you can tell, I only visit the very finest of establishments.

Also on Saturday my boyfriend and I went for a drive to look at the house that we're going to be moving into next year! It's right on the waterfront in a cool little area. Pretty badass! Can't wait to finally move out of home!

windy day

Why hello there! Just a quick outfit post before I slowly die from the Giant Mouth Ulcer of Doom that is currently attacking me. Eeww, I hear you say. Eeewwww. 

I didn't really do anything in particular today. Just wore this outfit to pick my boyfriend up from work, and then we bought sushi and watched a couple of episodes from Season 8 of Curb Your Enthusiasm. Much laughter was had. I'll probably wear this outfit or something similar to work tomorrow.

Also, here is a photo of me from when I got to be Queen for a whole night last Friday. I went out for my friend's 23rd birthday (we went to a bar with topless waitresses, oohhh saucy), but she was drunk nice and let me wear her crown all night. :)

Too much smile?

See ya later alligators!
