What I'm wearing today

(more or less) & I'm pretty happy about it. Who needs summer! 

Pah.

Summer Outfits

White Wedding

On a (hopefully!) sunny day in May this year, one of my best friends is getting married!!!!!

Incase it wasn't obvious, I'm a touch excited. 

A little part of the excitement is planning what to wear! As we're going to be there all day (no doubt crying our little eyes out & taking too many pictures) & all night (dancing 'til the small hours &  probably crying some more). So. This means finding a dress that is wedding+day+night appropriate...

*Que a lot of pinning! (& then a little polyvore-ing)

I'll probably end up making more of these as I find more pretty dresses & things...can't wait for the vows/seeing the dress/the first kiss/the first dance/& all that jazz!

Adorbz. 

Although a tiny part of me would love it if HW turned up looking like this...

*all pictures above from tumblr.com :) 

Surprise surprise...

If I saw these images without reading the text about the link first, I'd be scouring the internet trying to find these gorrrge pieces.

But there's no need - they're all from Primark!

Uhmaze. 

Race you to Primark for this one:

Currently Listening to

Eminem.

I was just reading his bio' on Spotify, thought it was pretty interesting & worth sharing:

"To call Eminem hip-hop’s Elvis is correct to a degree, but it’s largely inaccurate.
Certainly, Eminem was the first white rapper since the Beastie Boys to garner both sales and critical respect, but his impact exceeded this confining distinction. On sheer verbal skills, Eminem was one of the greatest MCs of his generation -- rapid, fluid, dexterous, and unpredictable, as capable of pulling off long-form narrative as he is delivering a withering aside -- and thanks to his mentor Dr. Dre, he had music to match: thick, muscular loops that evoked the terror and paranoia Em’s music conjured. And, to be certain, a great deal of the controversy Eminem courted -- and during the turn of the millennium, there was no greater pop cultural bogeyman than Marshall Mathers -- came through in how his violent fantasias, often directed at his mother or his wife, intertwined with flights of absurdity that appealed to listeners too young to absorb the psychodramas Eminem explored on his hit albums, The Slim Shady LP and The Marshall Mathers LP. 

  With hits “My Name Is” and “The Slim Shady,” he ruled the airwaves, but it wasn’t long before some detractors acknowledged his depth, helped in part by singles like the mournful “Stan,” written from the perspective of an obsessed fan. Eminem capitalized on this forward momentum by crossing over into the big screen with 8 Mile, earning acclaim for his performance and an Oscar for the film’s anthem “Lose Yourself,” but a number of demons led him to shut down for the second half of the decade, an absence that proved life is indeed empty without Em, before he returned in 2009 with Relapse."

Aaaand picture of the day:

(There's gonna be a few today, because it's so nice outside it reminds me of summer, when Helen, Sj, Jake, Ryan & I went on a boat to the Isle of White for the day - now know forever as "Boat Day"!)

Helen on the boat (sitting up front).

Me & Sj in the back!

Ryan & Jake, driving.

Ahh, I miss summer!
