Stop the Spot!

I don't have the best skin in the world when it comes to blemishes, but especially whilst it's still pretty chilly outside & therefore the heating's on practically 24/7! 
(To be honest, the optimum temperature for anywhere I live is pretty warm, because I really dislike wearing lots of layers at home...so maybe living with an O.A.P for now is a good thing!)

Because of this, I thought I'd share my favoriteist ever blemish treatment; 

Sephora Stop the Spot! 

Stop the Spot! $5.50

I find it's the best thing for when you feel one of those huuuge ones just lurking...or even just for getting rid of little normal ones! 
When I first got it I thought oh, the tube's pretty tiny & wasn't sure if it was worth the money, but the amount you need to use is so minuscule it lasts forever! 
I think I bought mine in Brighton, but can't seem to find it on the internet in the UK, but the French site I did find it on (it's a french brand) ships to England - yay!

Because with weather like this, it might be time to stock up :( 

A thousand times yes, when it comes to Dior...

I saw this beauty in the April ELLE, & can't stop thinking about it...

Wouldn't it just be the most beautiful engagement ring? Dior, £1900.

It actually really reminds me of a necklace I spotted a while ago.
Failing that, I'd be willing to accept this also...

Dior, £2800.

Nothing wrong with a bit of imaginary planning...

Birthday Plans

I know my birthday is still...over 4 months away, but nothing wrong with a little planning(!)♥

Miiiiiilk!

Cravendale "Cats with thumbs" may just be my temporary favourite advert at the moment -



I still blame Cravendale, however, for the urge to shout "miiiiiiilk!" every now & again -



Turns out the website's pretty jazzy too! Check it out here.

The ads were created by Wieden+Kennedy - "Cravendale is passionate about milk. This lighthearted campaign shows Cravendale’s superior taste and quality through a gang of polydactyl cats preparing to get to the Cravendale milk they love."

Makes me think that maybe I'll buy some next time I'm doing the shopping - good advertising should be rewarded, right? (This will be my reasoning when I get a new job & happen to wander past mulberry...)

Tumblr

I really forgot how lovely Tumblr can be until I set one up for work a few weeks ago (having totally neglected my personal Tumblr). 

At work, it's usually just the architecture-themed blogs I look at, but even those are beautiful.

(Via ArchitectureBlog)

I signed up for Tumblr Dec 17th 2009 (yep, actually went & checked), & until recently was pretty sure that apart from those on it & other slightly-geek-about-new-things-on-the-internet people knew about, but if the recent press it's been getting is anything to go by, it's just getting bigger & bigger - which, in this case, definitely means better... *Note - when I can find online copies of the articles that have mentioned Tumblr, I shall update this post!
In the meantime;

An awesome 'I heart Tumblr' blog post 

Find others equally obsessed with random things/people/places 

Tumblr's 'Goodies'!

Cute Boys With Cats. Don't think I need to say more!

And a few of my favorite, random pictures from the site itself:

 Oh, apart from the occasional bits of text, there are some amazing links too -

Enjoy!  ♥

Job + Flat = The Dream.

Time's been going so quickly! I've now only got about a month left at my internship (this is my excuse for lack of blog-posts - all my blogging effort has gone into this blog.  Check it out, it's pretty jazzy. 


But this means that I've got to start looking for a 'real' job now! Which is exciting & scary in equal parts...Well actually, I think that now I've had this experience in an office environment & know that I'm actually capable of doing the job, I'm more excited. 


Which is definitely a good thing! Because with a job comes a flat (hopefully)! 
Therefore, it should come as no great surprise that I've spent many hours already looking at property porn.
Ranging from the 'I could never afford this in a million years, but isn't it beautiful'

 

For the Super Rich only

*sigh*
But having said that, there are a few gems I've come across too, which aren't eye-wateringly pricey, which is nice to know. Only thing is, I don't know where I'm going to be working, or who I'm going to be living with (either The Boy or Sj) & where they'll want to live...Because I don't really have a preference at the moment, as long as I'm near a tube or train. 
This is mainly because my hatred for busses can threaten to become consuming at times.  

And another awesome side to moving out will be being able to decorate!!! Eeeee.
Hello Ikea!

As for the job hunt - well! 
The websites I've been casually looking at include:
Artshub 
Creative Review 
Brand Republic 
University of the Arts 

I think I'm going to start applying to a few jobs listed soon (when I know my current leaving date, etc.), but a couple of friends have mentioned that it might be easier to sign up with a recruitment agency, so I might just do that too! 

FIngers crossed :]
