Catch-up

So apparently this whole regular posting thing is just a bit beyond me... But I'm damn well going to try. Going to start with a catch-up.

After the hellish experience which was my summer exam, I was lucky enough to go to Bestival to have some fun and get atrociously drunk. Here are the only photos of me where I don't look like a complete mess:

 Old t-shirt cut into a crop top, Levi's shorts, vintage belt, black Dr Martens, white ankle socks, white cat eye sunglasses from ebay (no longer in stock from the seller I got them from)

My new vintage Planet Hollywood denim jacket (better photos to come soon!); top, shorts, belt and boots as above; this sequin velvet choker from ebay (has slipped to the side); this scrunchie again; my genius festival invention of a mini-torch clipped to a lanyard

And how could I not show you a picture of me in my half-arsed Bestival fancy dress?

My mum's leopard print top, my pathetic attempt at this amazing tutorial.

In case you were wondering, my favourite acts were Major Lazer, Disclosure, Skream & Benga, Stevie Wonder, Jamie XX and Friendly Fires. If any of you go next year, be sure to check out the Arcadia stage too!

And then last month was my 21st birthday:

Top as above, these silver hotpants from ebay (why do I always let them ride up when I'm drunk?!), vintage bag, Deathly Hallows necklace was a present from my boyfriend

So far my third year uni workload has been mountainous, but fingers crossed I can apply my new-found concentration to this blog!

Over and out.

My uni uniform

Another Woolworths polo, Urban Outfitters jeans (the best fit ever), random white ankle socks, Office brogues.

      As you may well have guessed, I'm back at university! So happy to return to my ridiculously big room (pure fluke, it used to be a double). I'm frantically typing this in between studying for a big presentation due tomorrow. The messy floor is courtesy of my junk food addicted boyfriend and the lack of time to unpack properly! Apologies for the shit quality of my webcam, must find my SLR cable and start using that instead.

      This is pretty much my uniform to wear to lectures and the like. It's so easy to throw on when you have a hangover that feels like someone has trampled on your head. Ahhh, the student life.

      Thought I'd add a quick make-up review which I hope will be the first of many. I've recently switched from Rimmel Exaggerate liquid eye liner to Maybelline Eyestudio Lasting Drama Gel Liner, which comes in a tiny glass pot with a comparably dinky eye liner brush (I hope you can make this out in the photo). I immediately became a convert: the formula glides on so easily, there is less of a chance of it leaking painfully into your eyeball, and it is virtually smudge-free! However, I would suggest waiting a few minutes for it to dry, as if you do get a smudge, it is murder to rub off. (N.B. the lipstick is a Mac Matte one in Ruby Woo).

      Also, just wanted to say a huge thanks to the people who have already commented on here :) How on earth did you guys find me?!
