I must really try and blog some more, but what with organising work experience, assignments etcetera, i really havent found the time. But here i am, so i shall have a little rant and fill you in on some of my favourite things.
Music:
At the moment im into kinda chilled music with a good beat, bringing me to The Cat Empire. Theyre an awesome Australian band with a unique, but very catchy, sound.
Also on my music radar are: Josh Pyke, Bob Evans, Franz Ferdinand, Lisa Mitchell, with a bit of Patrick Wolf and Prince thrown into the mix.
Fashion:
With the weather becoming chilly its time to rug up. Skinnies are still going strong with very dark blue being the colour this season, team this with a tee and an eskimo hoodie or a black leather jacket, for a snazzy ensemble.
For a different option, buy a pair of bright or printed stockings, add one of those cute dresses usually reserved for summer and a black, leather jacket.
Winter brings with it warm, knit scarves and beanies and comfy ankle boots; so embrace the cold and the fashion opportunities that come with it.
Hair:
With side fringes every where you look, its refreshing to see the front fringe making a revival. If your feeling a little daring and want to stand out from the crowd, this look is definitely a good idea. Team with messy bed hair and you're ready; if your hair isnt a natural with waves, lightly curl your hair with a straightener the night before and sleep on it. So easy and so chic.
Makeup:
KISS - Keep It Simple Stupid, probably the best advice ive ever heard. Dont go OTT with your makeup, you'll look so much better in your own skin. Combine minimal makeup - just a coat of mascara and eyeliner, possibly a little foundation if necessary - with tousled waves, to create a stunning, natural look.
In Nail News, purple is the colour to rock this season, with so many great shades to choose from, there's something for everyone. Just slick on a few coats and be prepared to stun.
Winter Reading:
With both the Harry Potter and Twilight sagas completed, we must search elsewhere for the perfect book to snuggle up with, in a blanket and hot chocolate cupped in our hands. And i think i've found it. Nightmare Academy by Frank Peretti is the second book in The Veritas Project series, and is really well written, has an exciting plot and leaves you thinking long after the last page has been turned. It might seem a little strange at the start, but persevere.
Interneting:
fmylife.com
Hilarious anecdotes about the horrible, little things in life. Hours of fun at your fingertips.
I really ought to get back to writing my story for English, but i'll leave you with a picture of Taylor Momsen modeling for IMG.
