Just to let anyone who actually reads this know..

I'm probably going to abandon this blog.

You never know, I may come back to it, but for now:

is my home.

Bobs bobs bobs


Apologies for the lack of posts. I've moved home and it's taken a few days to sort everything out. And in a HUGE 'new me' twist I'm getting the chop. That's right - a bob. 'How very two years ago' I hear you cry. And you'd be right. I half-heartedly trawled the web for any scrap of fashion credibilty the bob might have left post-Katy Holmes. This was very unsuccessful, but to be honest, I don't really care.

I like that it's not 'cool'. I spend alot of time trying to run away from what's cool in order to avoid looking like the fashion victim that I know I am at heart. My rule is, once a trend reaches Heat/More/Look magazines etc I must move on. With this in mind I relish and look forward to my 'so-uncool-that-its-cool' bob.

I see a little silhouette of a man


There's something magical about vintage silhouettes. I'm going through a bit of a stage of loving all things old.. I'm yearning for quaint country-cottage style crockery. god knows why..
On a completely different note; I'm completely addicted to twitter. get yourself an account. and follow me here. Also have a gander at Twistori - it's strangely inspiring and it makes me happy to watch it go :)

Kawaii

Dear God. I've just discovered the adorable world of Kawaii. Literally translating to mean 'cute' or 'pet', it's basically a term for cute little japanese things. I was browsing the stationary on Lady Luck when I found this adorbale notebook:

And I saw that one reviewer has described it as 'Kawaii'. Intrigued, I googled and found a whole world of cuteness. I am now convinced that my life will not be complete until everything I own is shaped like an ice cream with a cute face.


Shop Kawaii has the most amazing and extensive array of cute things I've ever seen. It's a collection of every adorble japanese cartoon product imaginable, from bookmarks to toilet roll holders. Well worth a look. And THESE are the most amazing things I've ever seen. That's right, they even managed to make pee and poo look cute. Incredible.

Distractions

So.. The man I love, who I've done everything for over the last six months has left me. Because I allegedly 'get in the way of his work'. I don't see how this could be the case, as I hardly saw him anyway due to his workload..

I've tried my best to negotiate but I refuse to beg when I have done nothing wrong. So, I spent a while crying. About ten hours I think. I was tempted to post but it would have all been embarasing emotional rubbush. I picked myself up, got pep talks from my wonderful friends and I'm trying not to pity myself anymore.

So, now I'm faced with a huge obstacle. How do I take my mind off of this man? I need to keep myself busy busy busy..

I could cook, but I have hardly any food. I could go out, but I have nowhere to go. I could shop, but I have hardly any money..

So I window shop (or browser shop if you will). I look at all the things I want and that I can have in my new single life :) This gorgeous dress, for instance, by Reko of ladyluckrulesok.com. More posts to come :)
