Quick thought(s)....

(1) I've decided this picture----------->
of my lovely mans arm is my new signature. Aha. When my mum heard about the picture she thought it was a real tattoo. Anyone who has met my wonderful mother, hardly needs to imagine how satisfying her facial expression was.

(2) Someone needs to take away all my debit/credit cards, erase the numbers from my memory, oh, and only allow me onto websites such as facebook and University websites, oh and the news. Basically ban any websites I can buy things from. Thanks ever so much.

(3) Does 'LadyRed' make me sound like a hooker? Anyone?........

General update on life:

Why is May always so hectic?

I had my first singing lesson on thursday, after much support from Charlie, and I have to say, it was amazing! I sing constantly, but only usually on my own/in front of Charlie/or when tipsy and playing singstar! The truth is, being at Queens, and being good friends with people who had been at stagecoach their whole lives, and close friends with a girl who is now well on her way to becoming a professional opera singer, the standards were pretty much impossible to compete with (or so I was made to believe anyway!) The truth is, I get so much joy from singing. I've been obsessed with the Phantom of the Opera since I was 10, I love musicals, music, piano, all of it! And I just want the confidence to be able to audition for something within the University, a chorus girl part in a musical, or a member of a choir, something extra curricular where I can go and sing my heart out, and not feel like I don't belong there! After just one lesson my tutor, Alice, has made me realise that I have a naturally great voice, and with her help, maybe I can make it better :) (ALSO: Extra-curricular alllllllways looks good on the old CV!)

In other news, Charlies (and mine I guess!) football team got into the Europa final on thursday night, very exciting stuff as they beat off all the favourites to win, beat some fantastic teams, and are playing Atletico Madrid (so are the only british team to make it through!!) So Charlie is whisking me off to Hamburg on May 12th to go and watch the final! COYW! God I hope they win, or Bobby Zamora is writing Charlie a very big cheque to cover the costs!

Also loooving working at Yo!Sushi, amazing people, great atmosphere, bearable hours, and discount on the yummiest food in the world. Mmmm. Sushi. However with all this stuff going on, Uni work has gotta fit in somewhere! Unfortunately I have an essay (last of the year!) due in on the 13th, when I'm away, so because of yosushi, the races etc, I've got exactly 2 free days to write it, and do a webfolio, and blackboard posts. Nightmare. I sense all nighters coming on, especially as today was a free day and I've done sweet f**k all!!! Idiot or what? Anyhoo, that's my little update on the past few days :) I should really be freaking out about this essay more...oh and the fact I need my new passport to arrive before the 12th....yikes!

I just thought, whilst Mari's beautiful headbands are on my mind, I'd show you the two I've bought:





Yes, I know, I have ZERO self-control. I'm surprised Natwest don't phone me daily to check no-one is committing fraud on my card. Although, worryingly, that happened twice last month. Very embarrassing.

Guilty Pleasures

I know you're not supposed to 'promote smoking', but that's really not what I'm doing here, I just think all women should at least HOLD one of these beauties in their hand. It doesn't have to be lit. Just hold it. And be taken back to the time, late early 20th century perhaps, when women smoking was considered chic and sexy, not lung cancer in a stick:

Sobranie Cocktails can easily tempt even the most anti-smoker (i.e. Moi) into the occassional pink puff.
They also come in chic black.
A packet of these, I'm sorry to say, are a must have on a summers evening outdoors.






My boyfriend is going to kill me for writing about these, sorry Charlie :)

Here it goes...

I've never thought of writing a blog before, I mainly joined this site in order to follow friends, family and my favourite designers. And then I realised, Ok, I want to go into publishing, shouldn't I be writing at least something about my life?
Even if no-one reads it? It's all practise right?

Sooo here I am.


And here are the most beautiful headbands ever created, I now own two.
Yay for me, Nay for my bank balance!
