Into the Wild....

Emile...

Christoper McCandless 




I saw this film quite randomly at some point in Korea and was blown away. Luckily HMV were selling it for about £3 (I can't remember it might have been more?) when I decided to go wandering in there last Bank Holiday Monday. It's quite simply amazing, the true story of Christopher McCandless who decided to give up his possessions and travel the USA (a bit of Mexico and Alaska) as 'Alexander Supertramp' after giving up on society.... it's simply awe inspiring. It stars Emile Hirsch and Kristen Stewart makes an interesting appearance (despite being very annoying as Bella Swann this is the second film she's appeared in that I LOVE - the other being Adventureland)

Portugal last week...

So being an almost teacher I now get a two week Easter break, unfortunately the 'almost' bit means this year I had a huge amount of work to complete during the break, however I also desperately needed a change of scenery! Luckily my Dad lives in Portugal (he is currently turning the house into a guesthouse 'Casa Verde' and I was able to go and hang out by the beach and take all of my work with me... 5 hours of sunbathing a day was the incentive I needed to get somework... I didn't travel like I normally I did, I just stayed put in Povoa with its gorgeous beaches, cafes, restaurants and 25 degree heat... hence the onslaught of beach photos you are about to see.  What made it more interesting was the Easter preperation occuring and Easter events, due to the location of the house directly opposite to the castello I got a balcony view of the towns 'crucifixion', no I am not joking...










Amsterdam...

WAY back in February I headed to Amsterdam with five fabulous girlies from my PGCE course, here are a few images I have been meaning to post since then but never quite got around to it.... due to the mountainous workload and pretty horrific placement i've be on.... It was february, we were there for three days, it snowed on the second day and I was sick for the majority. I mainly saw the inside of bars and the sex museum. I need to go back at some point.

Her Morning Elegance

New Favourite Blog

This blog is my new obsession, so god damn beautiful it makes me want to cry and be sick at the same time. The Smashing Pumpkins soundtrack (Take me Down) just tips it over the scale of WOW.

In my head all day long....

Rumours





I was with a friend looking at Pantone socks in a department store earlier on and she told me about Pantone makeup and I had to do some research. Looks AMAZING, think it's just a prototype....

Best cereal in the world??





I can't for the life of me remember what I was googling when I found these, or where I found them but OMG, possibly the best cereal ever?? Although now I doubt it would taste that good...

I want pink hair...




I think I found this via Fashion Toast.... x
