I am a typical blonde however I do love to write and cough up my creativity onto lined paper as a story, in the future I would like to be either a journalist or author, but hey who knows. But it is a vision I am fiercely chasing, for the moment this blog is a mix of a 16/17 year olds life- fashion, music,and other nonsense. Likeable things :) Records, Ticking clocks, nerdy things, torchwood, West Ends, Potter, and Converse, music, pendants, summer dresses and hair bows, blonde hair in a messy bun, art, guitar, LUSH, topshop,Fern, jack wills, Bath the city, tea with sugar please, exercise, SWIMMING is a passion, reading, candles, watermelon, ipod, perfumes, nina ricci, the wolfpack, AlexKatieTheaRoisinRhiannon, & humming along to unknown tunes.

you overdid it doll.

Ok so it is the last weekend before school starts, great!
And I am kind of a bit smothered with homework, especially Art and Science. So I just wanted to say if I don't get to see you then sorry :} really.
I can't wait to do a summer post soon, lovely. Also I have ordered the Fashion Book by Phaidon and it is finally on it's way!
My favourite band for summer :)

half term!

Just 4 days left of half term, nooo!
 Actually it doesn't sound that short, and i can't wait for them. So far it has been good and let's be honest if I am up and about at half nine-ish, 'Morning Jeremy Kyle!'
But I am not as sad to watch re-runs all day, although I could be tempted, and I have done things over the past few days like; a muddy walk with Beth, shopping, fun art day with Jake (jeez did I really go into school IN THE HOLIDAYS!?), and Friday I am going to Christies for something that someone can not know about.. so I won't say.
Yes I have quite a lot of homework, well not very much actually but I plan to start that Friday evening and do it at the weekend :) and  also need to meet up with people still.
then back to school ..
Well people enjoy the holidays!

if it smells good, it has got to be one of those Yankees.

No I do not mean Americans, no offense and I'm sure they smell fine, but I am talking about Yankee Candles. It is half term and I happened to purchase some today to keep my room smelling good, and I thought i would do a review; why not?
So in our house we have a couple of stashes somewhere, and that is mainly why I have so many, these are the ones in my room:



Yankee Candles are just so amazing, and seen as I haven't done a blog in quite a while, I want to show you my favourites :)

not in order as that would be impossible for me.
But the first ones are the tart candles;

Sage&Citrus- tangy and refreshing

Evening Primrose- late afternoons in the garden

Island Spa- a runaway resort

As these are tart candles they burn strongly, I think they are all very spring/summer and smell simply 'WOW'.

I also have 3 small jars (which to be honest are quite big-ish.)
Cranberry Chutney- with a good book and a chair.

White Chocolate & Mint- luxury sleep
I have to say Cranberry Chutney is really good, but as I love white chocolate; it is the one I use most even though the smell is thick and not every one's taste. But so good for winter and cold nights.

Today I got treated to a Vanilla Cupcake tart, I can not get enough of this smell, it is like when you open the oven to freshly baked cakes and you get that dreamy whiff. Adorable. 
Also I really was looking for a summer candle to burn at weekends and I found it. It is Mango Peach Salsa and it smells so so so good, like fruit salad my friend has but with a stronger juicy smell, LOOVE!



The last thing I brought wasn't YC, but I think it is pretty damn cute :)
A lovely tea light holder as a tea cup. Tea AND candles?! YES PLEASE.
Overall Yankee Candles are long -lasting, worthy and damn good to smell. Take a deep breath Ladies and Gentlemen, because Yankee's are sure to suit anyones scent.


Sorry about the length of the post
See you around, unless I am too busy smelling these beauts'
;)

our time is running out !

Right now I am listening to Muse, I forgot how much I like them :)
After getting home from school I decided to 'redo' my wardrobe and now it looks SO much tidier :)
My sister got me these today;
I adore the cute floral pattern on the sides, a bit early for summer yet, but as soon as the sun is out, so will these. 
Ah Time is Running Out is on, my personal favourite .
