L.F RAMBLES - SUSHI AND TORTOISE

CALOURETTE

I caved in and bought the ring I've lusted over for about 2 years or so. Calourette having a major sale on wasn't an incentive or anything.......

Glittery nails holding glittery polish. When did I get this girly?

Preppin'

20s or.....

30s?

Illamasqua Leeds had a Hollywood screen sirens drop in session and me and Sophie dropped by to learn some tricks. It was a really enjoyable session apart from the weather that day.... so hot and humid! Eurghhh. 

My grim looking bruise from after the Die Antwoord gig. I thought it was kind of pretty in a weird way.

52 editions of British Vogue's. My parents were so annoyed at me. But my defence is: I paid £20 for all of them and I have a well known obsession with collecting fashion publications.

BAEKDU

My first time trying Korean food. Or knowingly anyway. I'm not sure what I was expecting but my friend's were hyping it off the scale beforehand. The food was nice but it reminded me of Thai food? I'll give this place another visit, but I'm still a sushi girl at heart. 

I think our friendship went to the next level when Allan allowed me to let rip with a shaver on his head!

Pre DIY head shave and with 2 year old tortoise Quinten! Obviously the most logical thing for my jobless friend is to buy a new pet. Fingers crossed he gets a job - I know how hard it is.

WASABI NOODLE AND SUSHI BAR

This place is AWESOME. I think at lunch they have a £1 per sushi plate offer which is a really good deal if you are looking for a quick lunch. Upstairs they also have a dessert room which is SO good. I recommend the shaved ice and pandan waffles (green tea flavour) - might want to share them out though because they are quite large.

MEL BY MELISSA NAVY PUMPS

So comfy and they smell nice! Is that a weird thing to say?

Another pair of Converses because my last pair has been worn to shreds.

Apple passwords are a pain in the ass I swear.

Some Chinese fashion publications I found in my mums office. It's quite interesting to see the trends from across the pond.

My inner make-up artist side loved the cute kitsch-ness of this red lip enamel necklace.

My mum made me this giant pillow from some fabric we found at the market. I like the chirpy gecko :)

Hey guys, another round up from my Iphone! Some exciting news I have for you is: I have a job interview this week and I'll also be working on a photoshoot with some bloggers for a fashion brand. Woo!

PHOTO UPDATE 4

 I decided to venture into Primark for once

Why I don't go there often:

1. My spot-a-gem eye isn't so great there

2. The quality isn't that great.... *coff* most things made out of cheap nasty polyester *coff*

3.  Too crowded

4. Get knocked down by buggies

ANYWAY I found one thing which is the above. Oversized burgundy jumper with grey polka dots (£12.99). And surprisingly I got a lot of compliments when I wore it out. A gem I think. 

 This sums me up. I just look moody.

Some light reading.....NOT

 Have an essay to do.... blah. Decided to beat the rush and read some of the reading list before everyone takes them out. The last book is to cheer me up and give me inspiration for looks :)

 A bit of my wall. The collage 'poster' was part of a brief to sum up ourselves

FROM L-R:

I'm *trying* not to eat too much junk but yeah.. I picked up these in Morrisons today. BAD L.F. 

 I needed a Kinder Egg shell for a project and inside was these little penguin fellas from Happy Feet 2. Yay for penguin with jazz hands hahaa

Morris and nails are Essie's- Angora Cardi 

PHOTO UPDATE 2

5/05/10- I was debating whether to upload this or not but this is my typical school/college look! Its from after school so its not 'fresh' and I have my typically moody face on. Its quite a departure from my 'heavy' looks you usually see from me don't you think?

Topshop - £8. I love it and I've been constantly wearing it ever since I bought it. It reminds me of Madonna circa the 80s or Givenchy fall 2007 or 2008? Don't quote me! I'm too lazy to do some research...... well Google.

From Paris. I bought it from some famous cathedral I can't remember. Pretty unique me thinks.

Marc by Marc Jacobs - ASOS. Not sure if they still stock this watch but I picked it out for my 18th. I love black accessories/jewelry and Marc Jacobs. So my ideal watch!

Sleek make-up's tinted lip conditioner in electro peach- £4. Similar or shall I say rip-off of M.A.C's tinted lip conditioners. I love the formula it gives a 'juicy' effect :)

NARS sheer matte/glow - £29. I still love sheer matte but I tried sheer glow recently and "omg" it's so good! I'm no good at reviews but it gives medium coverage and a soft satin glow finish whilst still looking natural of course!

04/05/10 - I will admit I was not a huge 'fan' or anything before. Rather I don't really care much for the music scene any more but I went with my friends and was absolutely amazing! Loved the energy! My first ever gig and swear my entire school went (exaggeration) because every time I turned around I recognised a face! Conclusion? Amazing and was drenched (exaggeration again) of beer at the end of the night.

Hope you liked my photo update. I think you maybe wondering what happened to my hiatus?! Its still on! Art exam next week and it's kicked in I don't have much time before my other exams.... my first 'proper' one is on June the 9th!
