Spring back into life! lol no

Well well well. It has been a while. Sorry about the absence, what with school work piling up, and those exams getting closer and closer. Those GCSE things. Yep, them ones. Oh, teenage days! When panic attacks and break downs are an hourly occurrence =]


Now, onto mildly interesting aspects of my life...

This week started well, minus the school part, as my family and I went to see 'The Book of Mormon', a musical by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, the creators of South Park. If you haven't been living under a rock for the few years, then you have heard all the rave reviews, and let's be honest, if they created South Park then it will be genius. And of course, it was. Oh me oh my, it did not disappoint, and there was rarely a moment where I wasn't entertained, and I am pretty sure my father was laughing for 2 hours straight. If it's good enough for him, it's good enough for ALL OF YOUZ. As soon as it was finished, I started planning how I would get my paws on more tickets to see it again. If you haven't already booked then get yo self on the website pronto. If you are easily offended by comedy about religion, or any kind of controversial subjects, then just see this musical and re-evaluate your life  (☞゚ヮ゚)☞







Secondly, I would like to just mention that I am totally head over heels in love. There is a deep infatuation... and it is with Breaking Bad. Please, I urge you to watch it. It is as a addictive as the Meth the show is about. Okay, I don't know if I'm allowed to say that, but I imagine it's probably the same level of addictive as something like fries, like once you have one you want another and then you end up with a food baby and um what was the point I was making? Share a side order of fries next time???


............

I LOVE BREAKING BAD 

✧・゚: *✧・゚:* \(✿◕‿◕)/ *:・゚✧*:・゚✧




And here we see more examples of why I love the internet.

Now I would also like to tell you of the newest favourite film on my 1000 page long list of best films of all time. It's called 'The Dreamers', and here is a link to the IMDB if you want to know more about it. To summarize, it is set in Paris, they smoke the entire time, drink wine like water, they are in the nudey dudey for the majority of the film, they talk about politics and films, there is some sex (teehee) and my future husband, Louis Garrel, stars in it. A recipe for perfection.








Oh sweet baby Jesus, LOUIS HOLD ME.

Finally, before I sign off, here are a few items I have recently purchased (secretly ordered from eBay at midnight, which is apparently my favourite time to online shop, when my mother is unaware until the next morning 。◕‿◕。 )



Blatantly from my Instagram. No shame.

This catch up has been wunderbar, and before I leave, here is one of my top songs of the moment, and yet another amusing anecdote from 
'really high goat'.

It happened again

Earlier this week I got my hair dyed at Bleach again! It's black/navy and I luuuurve it. Since I have had light hair for a while I thought it would be a nice change. Hope y'all like it.

Backstage at Mary Katrantzou

Yesterday, thanks to our immensely talented hair dressing friend, Eugene Souleiman, I was able to go backstage at the Mary Katrantzou show. There, I got to gawk at the models getting their hair and make up done, whilst also getting a sneak peek at all the dresses! We were then shoo-ed out when things started to get hectic and went to our standing spots to watch the show. Admittedly, I'm not always a massive fan of the very structured and angular shapes used by some designers, as used in this show, but the way the outfits moved on the models, and the patterns on the material, were magnificent. The show was executed well, and the minimal, natural make up with the block false fringes accompanied the outfits perfectly. Another thing I adored was the music selection. Zombie - The Cranberries as the final song? Winner.

American History X

One of the cult films I had on my list of movies I need to watch was American History X. Finally, I watched it, and it did not disappoint. Admittedly, I was expecting a very different type of film, but it was one of the most emotional and thoughtful films I have seen yet. It really stimulated and evoked a lot of feelings about a subject matter that has always interested me, but it really spun everything and made me consider morals and belief. Sorry, that probably didn't make any sense and sounds super pretentious, but basically put, you all need to watch this film. It it life-changing and I can't wait to watch it again.





Oh yeah, another reason to watch this - Edward Norton is topless for majority of the film. His acting is epic too.... ABS-ABS-ABS-ABS ok sorry I'm done.

Coachella 2013

Kind of incredulous to the fact that I am going to Coachella for the second time. It's like a beautiful dream that I don't want to wake up from. Yes, it is at the end of the holiday we have to revise in, but DON'T GET RUDE. Of course, I will focus on my studies like a good gal, but then I am going CrAzY at Coachella. Nearly wept with joy at the line-up.


Most looking forward to - 
Alt-J, Bat for Lashes, Ben Howard, Grimes, Hot Chip, La Roux (lol she's still a thing), Lee Scratch Perry, Moby, Polica, Purity Ring, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Stone Roses, The XX, TNGHT, Two Door Cinema Club, Vampire Weekend, and finally, Wu-Tang Clan.

Holy whippet knickers, I am so excited I can't contain my happy dancing.

Post-Mock Shopping

CUE THE BELLS FROM THE HEAVENS UP ABOVE, MOCKS ARE OVER!!!!! As I didn't have to go to school today, Mother and I had a shopping day and went to see a couple of exhibitions. It was marvy, as I got some killer things. HEY, I deserved them, so it's all good in the hood.

From American Apparel...





From Urban Outfitters...






My hip flask is totes OF omgeez!!!!1

From Opening Ceremony...


After the glorious shopping trip, we went to Somerset House to see the Valentino exhibition, and it was pretty fab. Basically, my Mother and I spent a couple hours judging all of the dresses on show, and let me just say, it was NOT all chic. But of course, it's Valentino, so we must forgive and forget.


After that, we took advantage of the time and went to another show that was on at Somerset House, showing some of Tim Walker's work. It was truly magical and I think he is now one of my favourite photographers. The way he uses fairy tales and crazy props is very inspiring and it was awesome seeing a big collection of his work, seeing as I never really took time to appreciate it before. Thumbs up.


Mother and I recommend both of the exhibitions, so hurry and get yo a$$ cultured.

Sorry about not posting for ages, but I hope now the mock days are over you will be hearing
more from me........ 

P.S If you haven't listened to the new Destiny's Child song then DO IT NOW.
