Beth Ditto's clothes line for Evans launched today. There are 23 piece in the line and the sizes range from 14 to 32. I almost screamed with joy when i saw Beth was launching a line for Evans. Beths always in the magazines for her amazing confidence and her striking looks so why not bring a bit o' beth to the highstreet? The collection photos are below, enjoy! :)

See the range here.

Colour Me Pretty!

If you haven't already guessed from the photos above, this post is about nail varnish. Sorry for the quality of the photos but i do not currently own a camera (so so gutted) and so i have had to settle for my 2mp camera on my phone, which by the way is also slowly falling to pieces.

I love nail varnishes. I own quite a few to say the least (you saw a snippet of them) but not enough colours, i own too much pink. I buy one practically every time i go shopping, and spend an age deciding on which one i should go for, much to the annoyance of my friends! But nail varnish is important, it can potentially make or break an outfit and besides it makes me feel pretty! This post is basically a way to show my love and devotion and to overall feed my addiction to nail varnish as i can't wear it for ages and ages because it's against school rules!

I just want to go out and buy every single new autumn colour.

So basically, I MISS NAIL VARNISH! ;'(

BIG ♥ FOR NAIL VARNISH!

are you a nail varnish addict?

Hope your having a good week so far, V xx

Let us dance in the sun, wearing wild flowers in our hair - Susan Polis Shutz

Good evening sweeeties! So, i'm five days into year 11 and it's gonna be a longggggg year and a very difficult year, but thats no reason for it not to be an AMAZING year. Im sat on my bed, watching big brother and i have been since 7:30pm. To be fair it is the final ;( very sad times, every time Davina wells up, it brings a tear to my eye. I l-l-love Davina, she's just lovely (her big send off has just started :D ) and to be honest, she makes Big Brother, doesn't she. I'm so glad she wore red. She looks gorgeous in anything and we all know she can pull off black better than any human being, ever, but I always think that when it's the mile-stone episodes (e.g. the finals) that she should wear colour and she has! I'm going to miss her presence on my friday nights. Big love for the queen of TV :) .. I could honestly talk about Big Brother for ever and ever.

I need neeed neeeeeeeed a haircut! BUT i'm beginning to annoy myself, because I am incredibly indecisive. So i'll decide i want a haircut in a certain style, i'll be fixed on it for a few days then doubt starts to ruin my lovely dream hair :( I start to worry about it not looking nice and i start to imagine people will take the mic. I know you shouldnt worry about what people are going to think, but your bound to right? I've never really had any drastic style changes. Im 15 and I've never had a big drastic change, how sad that makes me feel :( I suppose the closest I've come to is either my mother putting a block fringe on me (which was so straight it looked as though they had used a spirit level to put it in) or when i cut my hair short-ish. I say short-ish because it wasn't actually short in reality, but compared to what it was before i cut it! It was long, very long. And to be honest, I didn't care what my hair looked like then, or my appearance come to think of it. Those were the days when i would happily leave the house in cropped grey, faded jeans with Adidas trainers wearing a little pink tee with a glittery monkey on it. Yes, there is photographic evidence of this, which will never work its way onto here! Anyway, yet again i feel i have digressed. So my hair right now? Blonde-ish, I'm in denial, I dont want to call it mouse-y brown...

Its layerd, but they don't last very long, at all. I have no fringe, i've never wanted to go back from the block fringe days of my terrible twos - 5's! I've toyed with dying my bland boring locks brunette recently but now i want to go blonde blonde blonde!!

I think i might go for choppy choppy layers and maybe a bit of a side fringe? Wonder how long this idea will last :)

Celeb hair style crush: BLAKE LIVELY!

Look how I've babbled on... and sadly not about anything too exciting.

Have a good weekend, get inspired? :)

FIRST 2 PHOTOS FROM HERE.

GQ awards

I'm feeling a little bit stinted, fashion wise. I'm not entirely sure what it is, but i'll take an eductated guess. So we're back at school and as per usual its all about uniform, uniform, uniform. I know a lot of schools have strict rules about uniform/appearence but I dont understand how much difference nail varnish or a hair braid can make to our education? I havent worn a hair braid since i was about 6, but i'd like to have the option, you know. Anyway, a couple of days ago GQ magazine along with Dunhill held Men Of the Year 2010 awards. As i'm not up for talking too much today (no idea why), I'll let the pictures do the talking...

Daisy Lowe in Gareth Pugh

Gemma Arterton in Viktor And Rolf

Lily Allen in Vintage with Chanel Jewels


Alexa Chung in Valentino


I suppose as it was the Men of the Year awards, so we should include them a little bit ey?



Aaron Johnson with finace Sam

JLS in Armarni

Ed Westwick (Yum) with Lily Allen

Dizzee Rascal in Dior

David Gandy in Dolce and Gabanna

Oh Mark...

Thats Tamara Drewe

I've loved Gemma Arterton ever since I first saw her in St. Trinnians. I mean, come on, who did not want to be her when they saw that film?! She's just SO cool!

Gemma is starring in a new film called Tamara Drewe which is out 10th September.

The premier was today, in Leicster Square, London. Gemma wore beautiful white floor length Gucci. She went with a very natural look with her make up, which works really well with the simplicity of the dress.

Cannot wait to see the film, im feeling an orange wednesday coming ;)

It's a must...

After two days, one of which only lasted a couple hours and consisted of just two lessons, of year 11 I'm actually exhausted! So far, my experience of year 11 has not filled me with high expectations for the rest of the year. For example, it's rained both days, neither of which i have had my umbrella with me. As a consequence of this rain, everything remotely resembling paper in my bag is now a big mess of ink and as a matter of face so was my face. Eyeliner half way down my face with hair that could easily have been mistaken for rats tails. Sad, but true. So, yeah, it's not been the best start to the year, BUT rain means COATS, which basically equals love.

As soon as i saw Coleen wearing this on the new Littlewoods tv advert, I came to find it on the internet! It's absolutely stunning! Millitary and glam.

Doesn't it look SO warm, but still stylish. Plus it reminds me of Gossip Girl. One Big Win!

Simple and classy. There isn't much more that needs to be said. Except the fact of the amazingly good price tag.

Last but OH SO DEFINITELY not least.

ME WANTTTTTTS IT! SO SO BAD!

Okay, calming myself down now. Not only is it incredibly pleasing on the ol' eyes, it has a hood! Why is a hood reason to get excited, I hear you cry? I'll tell you. For the days that I will, inevitably, forget to pack my umbrella, again, my hair will have some slight hope of staying relatively dry.

Here's hoping you've had a dryer start to the week than I have.

an inspiration in itself.

Hello :)

I stumbled across a blog this morning called Silver Lining written by a woman called Sylvie. I love everything about her blog, literally everything. As soon as I'd read a few of her posts i followed and went straight to add her to my blog list. As i said, i only found this blog this morning but i haven't been off of it since.

I've been quite sad last night and this morning, not for very big or particular reasons, but there has been a lot of tears. So to try and cheer myself up slightly I turned up the music and came to my blog. I was looking on the IFB wire for a new blog to read, something to distract myself and then i saw a post by Sylvie. I don't know why but it caught my eye (ooh apparently i rhyme now), so on i clicked and loved it! I started to flick through a few of her older posts, i tend to do this with all new blogs i find - don't know why, and i came across one about a love letter taken from a showtime series called 'Californication' with David Duchovny. It was a really cute post, but not the main thing that made me love this blog! I looked down the page a little bit and saw the label for this post was 'inspiration'. I thought to myself 'Well, i could probably do with a bit of that right now' so i clicked on the label and what came onto my screen? Post after post after post of inspiration. I love inspiration, it has the power to cheer you up (like me for instance), make your believe again, hope again. I have big dreams, school/career wise and personal wise, and i think everyone needs a bit of inspiration every now and again to keep them on track and to help them along the way. In my opinion you can never have enough inspiration.

Her blog has a bit of everything and every post is a good read. I've enjoyed reading the posts that i have already and it really has cheered me up and made my day a lot better. So thank you Sylvie and all i can say is i hope my blog is as good as yours one day!

I look forward to reading more of your posts, it has most certainly become a daily read! :)

P.S. I think there really can be only one label for this post, don't you?
