BEAUTIFUL DAYS

















Although today has not been the best day of my life, as it included
getting drenched waiting for the college bus in the rain as it was super mega late,
doing a Biology test and messing up my Biology practical exam because
I am scientifically impaired,  it also involved singing along to the radio
 in my best friend's car after we decided to use another mode of transport,
drying our hair under the hand dryer in the college toilets and the sun has
finally come out.

So right now, if I look out the window, all I can see are gorgeous
bright blue skies, lush green plants in my garden and a big beaming sunshine.
Top that off with the nutella pancakes I had for lunch and what seemed to be
a bad day has now done a u turn, and it is so very beautiful :)

So to celebrate that, I found these photos of beautiful days for you to enjoy
and I made them super large and everything, because you know, it's a good day and
all that.

ROAMING LONDON TOWN


The other week I went to London.
Here are some of the things I got up to.

Kissed David Gandy.

Trekked all the way up to Ally Pally and stood and 
admired the view of central London skyline.

Went to Rokit with money.
Left £15 poorer but 10 x happier.

Stood outside Dolce & Gabbana and drooled.

Did said action.

Fell in love with the flowers in Selfridges.

Made mental notes for future wedding.

Drooled at Selfridges too over the amazingly delicious 
desserts and sweets and choccies and everything...

Ate the most perfect scones in the history of ever.

Stared at Bradley Cooper's eyes and pondered
the question: how are they that blue?

Fell in love with this Ted Baker beaded beauty.

Also fell in love with this divine Ted Baker mini floral purse.

And again.

Gormed at HMV on Oxford Street.

Took a picture of my shoes, as you do.
SHOE SELFIE.

Got ambushed by a giant flock of birds at Ally Pally.

Admired the willow trees at Camden.

Fell in love with all the cameras and this camera
guy tried to talk me into buying a flash bulb for an 100 year old
camera which I do not have nor particularly want.

Admired the view of Camden Lock.

Admired the pretty coloured buildings at Camden.

Saw a tree with fairy lights.

Headed down Regent Street as dusk began to fall.

Perfect day wouldn't you say?

NEW YORK AT CHRISTMAS

I am one of those lucky sods
who's fortunate enough to have walked across the holy
land, aka. heaven on this earth, aka,
NEW YORK CITY.

And because NYC is quite possibly the most
gorgeous place in the world at Christmas time, aside Santa's
crib up in Lapland, and because as of
Monday it is officially less than a month until
we are simply having a wonderful Christmas time, I thought
I'd post some magical and utterly beautiful pictures of the BIG APPLE.

So enjoy my darlings...
and please join me in weeping in sorrow if like me, you
are stuck in the absolute furthest place away from NYC you could
possibly get :'(
(cough cough, Derby)








Oh my god I am literally crying!!


TO DO LIST

 EXPERIENCE CHRISTMAS IN NYC!!!

And just to get you in the mood...
it's my absolute FAVOURITE christmas song

I'M A LIVERBIRD


I love you all for holding on as I battle
through mountains of college work in order to find the time
to post on my beloved little blog
for you lovelies.

Now as it's 9pm, and I've done my fair share of college work (wahey), it's time for me to post, and I have some pretty cool things to write about,
the first being LIVERPOOL!

My family and I went up north in search of a new city
to explore and we landed at Liverpool, which for those of you who might not know, is on the north west of the UK,
next to the sea.

-Wait, I don't know why I'm acting like it's some foreign,
unheard of place, because I've just remembered something rather important and obvious...

LIVERPOOL IS THE HOME OF THE BEATLES, AKA. ONE
OF THE MOST WELL KNOWN AND BEST BANDS EVER IN THE HISTORY OF EVER!!!

And I'm an idiot!

Now anyway, as seems to happen, I had the complete wrong idea about Liverpool, as I had with Manchester & Newcastle & just about everywhere else in the British Isles.

Basically, I didn't think it would be as nice as it actually was,
because let me tell you now, Liverpool is GORGEOUS, and I can
completely see why someone would want to live there all there life and never ever move.

There's the stunning Les Mis movie- esque architecture,
the modern, arty buildings, the beautiful Albert Docks, the Beatles EVERYWHERE the eye can see, the friendly locals, the cute cafe's and restaurants,AND AND AND
THE SHOPS.
OH FOR THE LOVE OF THE GREAT HOLY MAN IN THE SKY,
THOSE SHOPS... think I need a tissue.

Those shops were AMAZING.
I splashed £40 (well hardcore) and trust me, I could've spent
a lot, lot more. 
The shopping centre was modern, insane, full of every shop you could ever wish to find... man it was BARE BEAUTZ as they say in Essex. 

Just as the rest of the city is.

And it's so lovely to see them so proud of the Beatles too, as they should be- our hostel had a 'Strawberry Fields' floor and a 'Penny Lane'one where we stayed.
At night I put my Beatles album on and we all sang along instead
of watching TV, I mean c'mon, HOW COOL WAS THAT?

So yes, I could ramble on for quite a long time
about Liverpool, but I won't for now.

But what I will say is if you get the chance to go,
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

I'm a complete convert & I'm pretty sure you'll be too.
