I'M COMING HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Here are some pics from my amazing trip to California last year to visit my family. AND GUESS WHAT! I'M GOING BACK!

Since I was a little girl I always dreamed of living in America, then my mum got married and my step fathers family all live in America. So now I have a free place to stay any time I can afford a plane ticket to California.

I'm so excited about the trip this year though! I've had a stressful year, what with college, my exams, breakups, hook ups, more breakups. Its just been chaos!

I'm heading to LAX on the 1st of September, my flight lands at approx 14:35 in the afternoon. And guys I'm so excited. On my old blog I posted the run up and how excited I was, as I don't hav that blog anymore i'll just have to do it on here instead! There will be a countdown, all my feelings and all my preparations, after all, this is what this blog is all about, my mission to get out of England and into warmer climates with endless opportunites.

Love to you all, SMILE! I am and probably will be for the next 36days!
XO

11 days until the fashion show!
36 DAYS UNTIL I GO TO CALIFORNIA!

p.s To any of my love American readers!
I'm going to L.A by myself this year (I normally go with the parents), and staying with my two 20 something year old cousins, do you have any tips of cool places, cool things to do whilst i'm out there? I'm out there for 2 weeks! Love to you all xo

The one and only 'FashionHppieLoves' shows us how to do star style- Copycat style done to perfection
At 'Luxenoir' three items equal chic- Simplicity to the max. Beauty to the max.

prepared to take the necessary punishment.

I have sinned. An awful sin.

I have completely disconnected myself from all things marvellous.
First I lost my way on the Hills, then 90210 slipped out of my radar, and now, sadly and worst of all, Gossip Girl. Lord please forgive me.
Help me find the light. Release the full Season 2 GG box set soon.
SMILE XO

shouting about my big night out....

I finally managed to get a night off from working in the club, and got the chance to go out last week with my best friends, I had a fabulous night and the best part was I knew it was a good night because I didnt wake up with a hangover. (Most people would say its the other way round- but I'm a terrible drunk haha)....

So here are some pics from the night out...

Jazz and I getting ready. She has theee biggest smile ever! (You can see my Audrey Hepburn canvas in the background...)

Lily, Jazz & Myself when we got to the club. All three of us nice and sober.


Jazz and Josh towards the end of the night. VERY drunk.

Lily & Jazz. Look at her HUGE gorgeous smile again. Thats the reason she's in the Miss Teen Queen finals!



Me, Lily & Jazz.. Posers. Josh on the right. What a cutie.

So pwettyyyyy.


Jazz, Josh and Lewis (The Aussie!).

Final pic of the night! Me and Josh, a bit worse for wear. You can tell when I start getting tipsy as I pout in like EVERY photo! Haha.

Well it was a good night, and I'm glad I got it off, and spent it with my two besties Jazz and Lily, can't wait until I finish working at the club before I go to Uni, I may get a whole weekend off :O haha, that would be crazyyyy! I have to work hard this week though as I need to save up as much mohoneys as possible for L.A!

I'm off to London again tomorrow to get my new passport! I'm not stopping for long however, saving my pennies NO shopping for me!!!

Sleep tight. Love to you all. SWEET DREAMS AND BEAUTIFUL NIGHTMARES. SMILE. XO

(My outfit consisted of: Topshop floral crop top, Topshop high waisted shorts, Topshop gold headband, Aldo shoes. Jazz's outfit: Topshop dress and Miss Selfridge shoes. Lily's outfit: Unknown.)

I missed you lots.

So after a long long week, and a break from blogging, as of today I'm BACK! To blog blog away.

A quick recap of whats being going on in my life....
  • I had a pretty hair cut.
  • Been busy organising the fashion show for the Phillip Green Memorial Trust, wow its hard work!
  • I went to Oxford Street, London and hit Topshop. Yummy.
  • My mum went on holiday and is now back, so I can once again eat nutritional meals. Phew.
  • Jazzy got her new Beetle, its called Bam Bam! So we've been driving around in that.
  • I got tonnes of new clothes so I've had lots of fun this week having soooo much choice! LOVE. Some outfit posts may well follow. So keep your eyes peeled!
  • I went to see BRUNO, THE HANGOVER and HARRY POTTER. Good films!

Here are some pics from the week... i'll post some of my big night out later! :)

This awesome tattoo is my friends sisters, I love leopard print so I completely fell in love with it, however I'm not sure I'd ever get it done!

This is my friend from work Shane and I, we went out for a few drinks one night, and I got a bit tipsy. Hence why I look so phased haha. Good times.

My 'evil' eyes. And Jazz being a child again with the hair dryer hehe. Wow we need to grow up. 18 and very immature.

Love to you all, I'll be catching up on other blogs later. I'm sure I've missed lots and lots!!! Hope your all SMILING :) XOOOO

the first time fashion's been un-fun.

Yep. That's where the fashion show is being held! How incredible does it look!?! I am soooo excited. There is so much to do. Stress is one word that keeps popping back into my mind! Hard work. Organization. Those are a few more words that I'm feeling.......

Anywho, anyone that can help in anyway shape or form, even if thats via a logo design, clothing boutique willing to lend us clothes etcc........
Lots of LOVE
SMILE XO
