Now it's fair to assume that we are not camping girls. BUT this weekend we are going to embrace our inner festival-goer and head to Wakestock Festival in Wales. I never win anything, but for once, I did! KissySellOut's record company were giving away tickets and all you had to do was write on their facebook wall and finish this sentence...
"If I was put in charge of the Hadron Collider
& asked to smash the atoms of 3 cult film characters together
at unimaginable speeds to create a MOVIE SUPER-BEING, the 3 peeps I
wud obviously chose are...........
(Doing my best to ignore the spelling errors, I wrote...)
Mr Blonde (Reservoir Dogs), Edward Scissorhands and Mia Wallace (Pulp Fiction) - scary, funky and sexy all in one! Just what you need.
... and I won!
So we are off tomorrow on the four hour drive to this...
So today I have been MASSIVELY craving sugar and chocolate. Luckily some fruit pastilles saved the day. However, it got me thinking about sweets and how maybe recent media has influenced my cravings... I know I sound crazy BUT sweets have been all over the place recently.
At the moment I have a massive girl crush on Katy Perry and her latest video for California Gurls totally indulges my love for sweets, cute clothes and quirky things. Oh, and it has the one and only Snoop Dogg in a particularly interesting suit. Here's a few snaps which reveal a few outfits from the video.
Only Katy Perry can pull off these funky wigs and still look amazing!
Love the wonderwoman style red outfit with a glittery, candy twist. ♥
Watch the video teaser below to see more...
I can't embed the full video so here is the link if you want to see Miss Perry in all her wonder. Literally. Apparently she only allowed girls and gays on the set due to her being naked! See for yourself...
Not only has that video influenced my need for sweets but I also think that this next clip may have had something to do with it. I have been watching bits and pieces of Britain's Got Talent on my computer and this particular act danced to a candy themed mash-up. Very cheesy, but cute and with a good selection of tunes!
I saw a girl on the train with a box of cupcakes and immediately decided to scan the internet for a local cupcake place! I must be the perfect consumer when all it takes is a peek at what someone is carrying! Anyway, as I'm in Nottingham I had a look around and found Heavenly Cupcakes. I haven't ordered anything from there as they are mainly for parties and big events I think but I have spent a long time just staring at the beautiful cakes! I figured they wouldn't mind some free publicity so have a look at these beauties:
Just looking at them makes me want to call up and order everything! They do sell boxes of 6... mmm...
If I ever get married (and that is a big if) then my only request is cupcakes!!
All these pictures are on the website with loads more if you fancy a look. I'm hoping I don't somehow get in trouble for linking and showing their pictures without asking first...
I won't ever get a body like Katy Perry if I keep looking at all this food! xx
I love collaborations in fashion, tv, music and make up. Perfect for lazy people like me who love all these things and enjoy having it all in one place. Collaborations have popped up all over the place recently with the new Sex and the City film coming out and new series of tv shows linking directly into fashion.
I literally cannot wait for SATC2 to arrive on our screens and I'm checking out everything on the internet, including the trailer...
'Sometimes, you just have to get away with the girls'
Below is a screen grab from SATC2 and Boohoo's tribute collection. I will definitely be buying from this. Love the body top with the sheer middle, heeled gladiator shoes and harem trousers.
Gaga and Cyndi Lauper with Mac. Perfection. I NEED some of this lipstick in bright colours.
Here's Gossip Girl and Miss Selfridge. I am obsessed with Gossip Girl but I think Miss Selfridge could have done better with this collection. The models could look like the characters to add to the theme and the clothes don't look as luxurious as they could. I was expecting lots of metallics, nudes and whites for Serena and rich colours and textures for Blair. Vanessa wears lots of greens, browns and muted tones. I will still be having a scan through to see what I can find.
Lady Gaga. She's nuts but that's why I (and the rest of the nation) love her.
I thought I'd post this video because I've been listening to it on repeat. Love the song, the hair, the dress, the shoes, the sentiment. Beautiful talent.
Off to see her at the end of the month so I'm busy finding outfits, shoes and make up to complete the look. Will update further when I have some more ideas. Here is one look I may not be brave enough to attempt!
