Happy Birthday Kate Moss!

Hey Guys,
Whilst in a waiting room yesterday, I picked up a magazine to read and to my surprise saw an article saying that Kate Moss turning is 40 tomorrow! I have admired Kate for a long time and to be honest thought she was a lot younger! She has had a wonderful career and has become an international fashion icon who is loved by many. And she dated Johnny Depp so she must be awesome!

For her birthday Kate is having a themed party, fashioned on Marie Antoinette and The French Court, which is going to take place on one of Richard Branson's islands.

"Kate is very excited about the theme. She has a big powder blue wig and will tell guests to 'eat cake' just as the French Queen did." (Daily Star)

 

Not only is Kate having an amazing party but her husband, Jamie Hince, is rumoured to have bought her a Parisian apartment, what a lucky girl! Jealous much!

Kate Moss has made a fantastic contribution to the fashion industry in her life so far and I hope she continues to do so long into the future, Happy Birthday Kate!

Song of the week

Hey Guys,
I'm certain all of you would have heard this song it's 'You and I' from Crystal Fighters; I never knew who they were until literally yesterday. I love this song because it's so upbeat and when it seems like this week is never going to end that's just what you need; I've basically just fallen in love with them. (It also reminds me of the opening credits for Wild at Heart).

Sighh designs

Hey Guys,
For a few months now I've known about this cute little shop run by a 17 year old girl at college called Polly Vadasz. I know that she's very proud of her shop and she would like to do this for a career; it would be fantastic if you could visit her shop and support her.
She designs pocket mirrors, phone cases and special products on seasonal events for a very reasonable price.

Visit her Instagram, Twitter and Blog for more information and obviously go to her shop (click the link or the lovely big photo).

Word Cloud Classics

Hey Guys,
As you know both of us absolutely love books, especially if they look fantastic; if you remember we did a post on Clothbound classics a while back.
Well today I stumbled across Word Cloud Classics. These are beautiful paper back with the durability of a hardback; they're made with some sort of faux leather cover which is embossed lettering, instead of having a blurb there are quotes from the book on the cover and back; not only this but they have beautiful end pages which have been specifically designed for that book.

Seeing as I only found out about them today, I don't know much about them but they're mainly classic books and I'm finding it very hard to located them online. I will list a few places that I have found but they're mainly American.
Anyway I'm really looking forward to buying them and although they're a bit on the pricey side of approx. £10 per book they are so beautiful and their spines will look amazing next to each other. As I am a huge fan of all the fairy tales stuff, my first purchases will definitely be the volume one and two of 'The Brothers Grimm' and then 'The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes'.

You must check these books out if you're a book lover you will fall in love with them.

This month I have chosen Rimmel London's Salon Pro Nail Varnish in 393 Desire. We both have this nail varnish from The Clothes Show, it is really good quality and this particular colour is very deep.

I also have a nail varnish from the clothes show; MINT London Envy, MNT14. You may have seen this in a previous post but it's a lovely green colour that's a bit unusual.

Song Of The Week

Hey Guys,
This week I have chosen the song Bedroom Eyes by Dum Dum Girls as my Song Of The Week. I love how effortlessly cool this girl band appear and that they actually play instruments unlike so many girl bands these days. They have a really unique sound. In this video they have a really great look which consists solely of black clothing, this looks really classy with their cat eye makeup and white guitars.

Song of the week

Hey Guys and Happy New Year!
Sorry this is so late and you'll most likely get another one of these tomorrow but I've been under the weather but better late then never.
Anyway I've chosen the song is Tennis Court by Lorde, I really like her music mainly because of her voice; and without a doubt I'll be buying her new album 'Pure Heroine'.

New Years Resolutions

Hey Guys,
Happy New Year! I thought I would share my New Years resolutions with you in the hope that it might make me stick to them! Every year I write resolutions but fail to keep to them for more than a month but this year I am determined!
So my resolutions are...
1. Stop procrastinating!!!
2. Read more
3. Moisturise every day (weird one I know, I am sorry)
4. Less tumblr. and more revision...
5. Stop pulling split ends in hair
6. Don't start biting nails again, even when life is very stressful (exams ahhhh!)
7. Make more time for friends

I tried to think of more, as 7 is an odd number and that annoys me, but I couldn't. I think as this list isn't too long I should be able to manage it and because she hasn't made any New Years resolutions, I'm sure Daisy will make sure I don't break any of mine!
