States of America

I only have to things to say about these necklaces 1. WOW and 2. I want. After browsing some blogs, I found this post on The Shoe Girl's Blog. The gorgeous writer's friend is wearing this first necklace. I love the idea of it, genius design by Maya Brenner, you can buy the two necklaces here.

My love for California is really niggling at me to get the state of California necklace, its like a reminder of my dream to one day be back there and it be for good!

The necklaces are quite costly, but they can also be personalised by having the diamond placed anywhere around the state line you like :)

Things like this make me SMILE :) XO

Poor Russian Dolls.

I got hair extensions (what do you think?), and I was thinking afterwards about the poor little girls who cut off their long beautiful hair to sell it, it gets processed and then sold to girls like me.

Ha. You never really realise how lucky you are do you?

(heres what my old hair looked like....)

These pics aren't the most flattering, I wasn't planning on putting them up here, so I wasn't too worried about smiling, but now I regret it!

I am happy today.
I'm learning to love myself as an individual again. Not as someone's counterpart.

Love lots.
SMile XO

Style obsession...

My current style OBSESSION is with Ashley Olsen! One half of the amazingly beautiful and stylish Olsen twins, I personally feel that Ashley is almost ...cleaner(?) if thats the right word, she has an air of sophistication that I don't see about Mary-Kate; DO NOT GET ME WRONG I LOVE MK's STYLE! But I just think Ashley is more... me :)

This is my favourite look out of the pics I chose for today. The simplicity of this look is what makes it rock for me, the way her hair is scraped but with the sunglasses. The oversized scarf and top with the skinnies and boots. I love everything and would be eternally grateful if I were given this outfit haha. Outfit number two, again is very simple yet sooooo chic! I love the oversized bag, ripped jeans and flats. This outfit would be very simple to re-create. Me likey.

Outfit number three again simplicity is the key, a fur coat with leggings and a pair of killer wedges all come together perfectly for Ashley. Adoring her style more and more by the second.

This fourth outfit rocks because of the booties we see again the oversized bag with skinny ripped jeans, but the boots are incredible. Yes please. Lets see if the closet angels could do their magic and let these boots appear there tomorrow!

This final outfit I just wanted to get a picture of to further stress how beautiful and sophisticated Ms Ashley Olsen is, there is no tacky bone in the young lady's body, she is all class and looks a vision in this beautiful The Row gown at the Costume Institue Gala.

.

All of these photos are borrowed from brilliant Olsens Anonymous, a fabulous site with beautiful pictures of the Olsen sisters, and their inspirational outfits. (Go check it out, you'll be hooked like me.)

.

Anyway, if I had Ashley's wardrobe I would need a spectacular closet to keep it all in, so if you click here you can see Joanna Goddard's article on fabulous New York closets....

.

I hope you all had/are having a fabulous day, mine was rather dull, but I remembered for tomorrow, I have some photo uploading to do. Yay. I'm off to sleep now, so I'll see you all tomorrow. Lots of love. XO

.

P.S remember- Smile, its infectious xo

.

P.P.S I saw this gorgeous Kate Moss for Topshop dress in about three different weekly mags and they all quote different prices, but I found it here on topshop.com and its only £40!!! What do you think of it??? xo

this girl's got some serious style.

I love all these blogs i'm finding on which all the sassy ladys take pics of their hot outfits each day. These are giving me some serious inspiration... I have these hot outfits concocting in my mind however there are setbacks such as (a) i can't find exactly what i want (b) i don't have enough money to afford exactly what i want... and (c) both of these problems!

This first set of hot outfits that I adore are from BEBELICIOUS ♥:

These two outfits are fierce! I love the trousers on the left, especially with the bright yellow shoes! The outfit on the right is everything that I love, top,skirt&shoes i<3them. align="center">.

I've had a crazy weekend...

...Hence why I haven't blogged since Friday!

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter. I did not get any eggs, as I'm officially off chocolate, however I asked for Fruit Pastels as a replacement haha!

Today I have a few sweet and sexy images for you from Le Love and Olsen Anonymous both sites are actually run by the same lovely lady! (She also has two others Le Smoking and Le Fashion)

I've only ever had one pet, and that's my handsome cat, Max, who had lived with me for two years this week! So happy anniversary Maxipuss!

This image is so cute, aww the rules of love.

This sexy 'look of the day' was worn by Mary-Kate Olsen, I love the dress and the booties. Hot stuffffffff.

I love this really casual look worn by Ashley Olsen, everything just goes so well, i love the ripped jeans, I am considering investing in (or creating) a pair myself. Im loving the bag also!

I may update later as I'm relaxing today after working 5 nights in a row! Have a nice day all! Stay sexy. Be happy. And love everyone. xo

P.S my lovelies, Ryan has updated the belly series and it is now week 28 over at pacing the panic room! xo

Rocking Rockstars & Their babies.

Today's post was going to be a bit wish washy so I decided it would be on something completely random: Rockstar daughters. Making a name; from their parents names.

So ladies and gentlemen, I give you *drum roll* the Rockstar Daughters Awards!!

.

Most Annoying Rockstar daughters: Goes to... Peaches Honeyblossom Michelle Charlotte Angel Vanessa Geldof (born 16 March 1986) and younger sister Little Pixie Geldof (born 17 September 1990), the two are the daughters of rock legend Sir Bob Geldof.

Both have insisted on forging careers as socialites. I can't decide which one is worse...

.

Most confused-about-whose-the-daddy Rockstar daughter:

Goes to... the beautiful, graceful Liv Tyler (born July 1, 1977), the Armageddon beauty grew up thinking that her mother's (Bebe Buell) then husband Tood Rundgren was actually her father, until discovering the truth at the age of 9, that her biological father was in fact Aerosmith's lead singer Steven Tyler.

Liv and her real daddy now share a close bond.

.

Rockstar daughter with the most 'issues':Goes to... the fabulous Nicole Richie. Nicole was born 21 September 1981, she is not the biological daughter of musician Lionel Richie, who adopted her at the age of 9 after becoming her guardian age 2, however he made sure that Nicole's every wish was granted after Lionel and wife Brenda's highly publicized divorce.

Nicole has suffered some very high publicized battles herself, with the eating disorder anorexia, her friendship break-up with BFF and co-star paris Hilton, and her many break-ups with countless boyfriends.

You'll be glad to see however that Nicole is now in a happy place, she has a daughter, Harlow Winter Kate Madden, with fiance Joel Madden as well as a new baby on the way.

.

Rockstar Daughter with the most Famous Friends: Goes to Kimberly Stewart (21 August 1979), the American socialite is a fashion model and fashion designer, and most importantly; daughter of legend Rod Stewart.

Kim is mostly known for her press coverage and who she hangs out with, in recent times these ahve included, Paris and Nicky Hilton, Courtney Love, Kim Kardashian, Anna Nicole Smith (deceased), Kelly Osbourne, Lindsey Lohan and Jack Osbourne.

.

Most successful-in-her-own-right Rockstar Daughter:

Goes to... Fashion designer Stella Mccartney (13 September 1971). The daughter of Beatles legend Paul McCartney is a successful high fashion designer won Designer of the Year award in 2007.

.

Don't you wish you could live the sweet life like these gals? xo

film buzz

I have watched some great films recently...

The first is light hearted comedy that I watched this morning, starring Doris Day; who my mum loves.

The movie is called 'Do not disturb' and it follows a young married couple who move to England for America, the wife (played by Day) is suspicious that her husband is having an affair.

Made in 1965, it was amazing to look at the recycling of the fashions.

The second film I watched was 'The Shawshank Redemptiom'. And I pretty much have no words to describe how it made me feel. I had a copy of the dvd for about a year and never wanted to watch it as I had been told it was a devestating story. I can assure you, it was far from it. The story was beautiful and revolved around hope and fear. Made in 1994 it had been voted the top film in IMDB's top 250 films ever.

Now for my favourite movie of all time....

It is of course the 1961 classic 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' starring the fabulous Audrey Hepburn. I believe she is so iconic because of the pure class that every pore of her body oozed. To put it simply. This classic film is also another that the fashions are very apparent and similar to today's revived styles.

That's all for now folks. xo

tattoo love

i really want a tattoo. like so badly.

i was having a browse today, and as i have no theme i just selected what looked pretty...

. i could have the audrey hepburn's autograph tattoo-ed onto my anatomy somewhere?

.

...or how about having 'what goes around, come around' tattoo-ed in arabic?
.
stars seemed to be a reucurring theme of my likes...
.

i like the positioning of this tattoo, just tucked in behind the ear (i also like the idea of right at the top of your neck, that way hair can hide it or it can be on show)...
.

...but overall this HAS to be my top one. i love it! i like how all the stars are different.

but the question is- are stars just a phase?

right now they have no meaning to me.

and its all about the love and meaning between the tattoo and its owner right?

.

let me know your views. xo

today i will...

...be happier than ...

.

.

...drink a milkshake this delicious.
(picture curtousey of Johnny Rockets 3rd street, Santa Monica CA.)
