My new found love..

Knitting.

So I've only just started, so I'm not particularly good, but I think I have found my new thing, at least for the moment

I don't know if any of you are on ravelry , but it's an amazing site you can find me on, when I stop sucking & get the hang of things, I show you my projects and such, when I build up a collection, I'll almost definitely be treating myself to this



Oh is it not just perfect in every way? Kidston I love you.


but for now, I'm aiming for a very long pink rectangle, which I doubt any of you are interested in, so I won't bore you with pictures ;)

& if knitting isn't your thing,
try these.

My current wish list item..

Is a charm necklace from the amazing Thomas Sabo, when I was 7 or 8 I saved up to buy my very first pair of earrings & I've been in love with his work ever since.

Here's a few (okay quite a lot) of my favourites..

I plan on getting a music-themed one as a reminder of my time at Music college

..but first I need a chain & These are the I have in mind:




Then the carrier:

& Here we have three of my favourites, which just happen to be totally out of my price range:






Aren't they just Darling?

a belated post

Dedicated to, of course:

Lee Alexander Mcqueen

Today in England at least, it was revealed that he hanged himself. He was so creative, invented, people keep calling him a genius and I truly don't believe they are going too far.
He created things of incredible extravagance, sensually beautiful, to pretty elegant and demure.
Many people will think, "oh this doesn't concern me, this is all couture" but it filtered right down into every highstreet store, Mcqueen created low rise jeans, on top of all the abstract, creative, beautiful pieces, he could also create simple every day items, that are in almost everyones wardrobes, regardless of taste, style or budget.
A few of my favourites, RIP Lee.

Pink or Yellow? Orange?

Hello :)
I wonder if you can work out my current non dilemma..












Orange hair is so beautiful when done well, I'd love to dye my hair orange and red hair and make it look like fire in sun.






















Or I could have my other love, cotton candy coloured hair, pink, blue, lilac, everything. At the moment I'm desperate for pink candy floss hair. Pink Pink Pink.




Curve Ball.


Peace.

Thought of the day.

"I love sleep.
My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?"
