Let's just start this paragraph off by saying I BOUGHT AMERICAN APPAREL DISCO PANTS. I know I have raved about the ebay versions for months now, which still remain a firm favourite item of clothing in my wardrobe, but the more I saw other people wearing them (no thanks to tumblr and lookbook), the more I wanted them. Yeah, they are £70 and my Mum thinks I am slightly crazy but 1. Haven't treated myself in ages 2. They are worth every penny 3. They make my bum look good. Honestly couldn't say enough good words about them!

Really cracked on with my FMP (Final Major Project) this week. Haven't really been working on it much as I've been stuck between ideas and just generally haven't been all there the last couple of weeks, but now it's well on its way. I will blog my artist references at some point next week!

It was my Mum's birthday on Friday so she's had a packed weekend. Friday we popped into Essex and had a spot of evening shopping. However, I think I'm going to return both of the tops to Topshop as I quickly picked them up before the store closed. Not really loving them! Last night (05/05), we went to a Greek restaurant and had a three course meal which was alright, nothing special and then had a late night disco until 2am. I wore my dip-hemmed ASOS dress which creases like a bulldog but I love it. The night was really good and even had belly dancers and flirty waiters! I was literally grabbed and spun around and around by one!

Hope you all had a lovely weekend? I am currently in bed in a big jumper feeling sorry for myself. I feel so tired! Shame I'm working bank holiday Monday!

P.s the pouty pictures are a joke haha!*

  5. I love your blog, and new layout, and you're really pretty!
    It makes me want to change my layout, I used to have a piczo site so I should be ok with making graphics ha, that's if I start posting.
    I might buy those ebay disco pants, I don't think I'd ever convert to the AA ones but who knows. Haha it looks like you had a lovely meal.
