Bonjour, It's the end of August and I only have two days of holiday left - where did the summer go?! It seems only yesterday I was looking forward to over two months of nothingness, and now school is just around the corner. Anyway it's time for my first monthly favourites post! I planned to do this at the end of July, but...
Bonjour, At the weekend I went to one of my best friends' house for shopping, hanging out and a sleepover, and it was amazing and wonderful and I enjoyed myself a lot. While I was there we watched the film Lolita, which I've been wanting to see for oh-so-long, and I was thrilled to finally see it - so much so that I've...
Bonjour, If, like me, you're in the last week or so before you go back to school after the summer holidays, you'll know exactly how horrible and disheartening the prospect of school starting up again is. Going from the lazy routine of getting up whenever you like, doing whatever you like whenever you like, and going to bed whenever you like, getting back...
Bonjour, So I know I haven't posted in a short while, but I was at my friend's house at the weekend and this week I've started a summer job which is basically childminding, but it means most of my afternoon is gone and I was too tired to post afterwards. Anyway, I went shopping at the weekend and here's what I bought: Black...
Bonjour, I've been meaning to post this for a while, so hooray for me finally getting round to it! In the same vein as this post I wrote about Marina & the Diamonds, I'd like to share some more of my favourite music with you lovely readers. This time I'me featuring the band MS MR, and here's a quick summary from Wikipedia: MS...
Bonjour, Although it may not seem like it, I do occasionally do more things than shop and blog, but I love both so blogging about shopping is my idea of heaven. Today I went to H&M again, because my mum was going to the local shopping centre and I decided to tag along. The photos I took are even worse quality than usual,...
Bonjour, I was inspired by my friend Joolz's recent blog post (go check out her blog please!) to make a list of 'things to be happy about' - or, as I've called mine, 'reasons to smile'. Some days it's so difficult to maintain a positive attitude, so I hope that by making this list I can do something to keep my own spirits...
Bonjour, Yesterday two of my best friends in the whole wide world came round to my house. We had a lovely catch up session and talked about what we've been up to so far this summer, and what we're hoping for in the coming school year. It was really nice to see them after so many weeks, as even though we'd kept in...
Bonjour, A trend I've noticed recently on Tumblr and particularly on Polyvore is jelly shoes, or jelly sandals. For me they're a complete flashback to about 1999, as I have lots of photos of me toddling around the beach near my grandparents's house wearing a glittery pink pair. I did some quick research, and found out that they were huge in the 80s...
Bonjour, So today I finally reached 100 followers on my main Tumblr! It might seem like nothing, but this is a huge milestone for me, as 100 has been my target since I made an account. I'm so happy, and if anyone reading thing follows me there, you have impeccable taste and I love you. If you don't follow me, please do -...
Bonjour, Today I though I'd post a poem I wrote a while ago - it's pretty terrible and I'm sure my English teacher would say it's a lot of fancy words but no structure or meaning, which is quite true. But get this, I'm pretty sure it's in iambic pentameter! I jazzed it up a bit on Polyvore, take a look: x ...
Bonjour, Today I went to the local shopping centre with my mum and brother. I don't go there all that often, because the only shops I ever really go in are H&M, The Body Shop, Six, and the newly-opened Pull & Bear. But anyway, I went into H&M first of all, since it's the biggest and best-stocked one I've ever been in, and...
Bonjour, So yesterday I decided to review my checklist of Things To Do This Summer, and I realised that one of the items on the list was 'make a ton of cards'. This is something I used to do a lot, from the age of about 10, but then I got my laptop and the internet happened, not to mention Polyvore which fulfills...
