Holidays Part 1!!!

Hello world!!! So I've been quite for the past few weeks because I have been abroad on holiday!!!! So for 2 weeks I went to Turkey with Dad, and then for another week I went to Mallorca with mum!!!!!! But this post (part 1) is just about my stay in Turkey!!! So I shall begin!!!

So me and my dad decided that this year we would stay in the same place as last year, and this place was Club Tokmak, there's not really much to say about it really as it's just a standard set of apartments with a bar and swimming pool! Ha not particularly interesting I must say! But here is a picture of where we stayed, it's actually one of the places you can stay that's furthest away from everything! Although to me that didn't really matter because I am not! I repeat NOT! A beach person! all that sand and salt rash from the sea water!!! Bleurgh!!! Not my thing!!! So it didn't really matter we were out of the way as most days I just read around the pool!!! Hee hee I read 8 books in those two weeks, and so I have a plan to do a blog post on a book review so hopefully everyone'll like that!!!!


So we left on the 2nd of July, our flight was at 4pm Brittish time which wasn't too bad, but then the flight takes 4 hours, and when you get there there's a 2 hour time add, so it was already 10!!! Then once you get your luggage blah di blah that can take half an hour/an hour depending on queues and if your suitcase is last! Which mine always is so I always end up having a panic attack over whether my suitcase has got lost!!! That is like such a bad nightmare of mine!!!! Cause you always take your nicest clothes on holiday and I keep thinking "wah what if I lost all my lovely clothes!" I mean I'm the girl who never throws out clothes so the thought of losing some is traumatising!!!!

So yeah after we'd got suitcases then there's an at least an hour coach transfer from the air port to Icmeler (the village we stay in!) It was like 12 o'clock by the time we got there, and everyone knows how much I like my early bed times so it was really awful!!!! I was just like *grabs pyjamas and falls into bed/fold out chair*! But then next morning I'd unpacked! So here's some photos of my room after I'd moved in!!! Ha I'd only just been there less then a day and already the whole room looks messy!!!!



 
Although my wardrobe was in lovely pristine condition!!! I had all my evening wear outfits on hangers and such and then all my underwear and bikinis all folded neatly along that shelf with my ugly travel bag tucked underneath!!!! Then I had my shoes all arranged beneath the wardrobe!!!! Super organised!!! although I hadn't put things in rainbow order like I do at home!!!!


Even all my books, toiletries and electronics have been organised!!!!!


So we technically arrived in Turkey on the Monday alhough our first proper day was Tuesday, nothing much happened, I factored up with factor 40 sunscreen and sat under a parasol with my book all day!!!! Naturally I have really super pale olive skin (an odd colour I know but yeah!) and so even though I have skin that can easily take English/French kinda sun with no sunscreen what so ever, even I have to be careful in Turkey at first cause it easily hits 45 degrees C each day - hee hee SHEER BLISS!!!!

So as I said! Nothing of much note to say about Tuesday!!!!! But on Wednesday the big market comes to Icmeler!!!! So I took some photos!!!! I love the market and also I think I'm pretty darn good at bartering as well so it's such good fun!!! But here's a sign that amused me!!! There's a fair few signs like this and people shouting stuff like "cheaper than asda, cheaper than primark, cheaper than netto" (I don't think anyone's informed them Netto don't dell clothes but that's beside the point ha!) So yeah it's all very lively and hustle and bustle etc!!!!


Here's one of my favourite stalls! The bag stall!!!! I'm sorry for the blurry quality of the picture!!!! I was moving about the whole time and my poor little camera couldn't keep up!!!! But yes my favourite shops!!! I love getting bags from Turkey!!! They alwaysdo such pretty ones and I'll show you the two I bought for myself later on in this post!!!! I also bought bags for Lina Bear and Haz, I didn't get pictures of them unfortunately but Lina's is a royal blue Louis Vuitton one, and Haz's is a black Dolce and Gabanna one! I haven't given them to them yet but hopefully they'll like them!!!!!!

Here's another little random stall I took a pic of selling little wooden figurines!!! There were all kinds of stalls, behind this you can see one selling Turkish belly dancing costumes! And then there's like towel stores and tee shirt stores and Nintendo stores!!! All kinds of stuff you can get and you can get it really super cheaply if you barter well!!!!


There are also food stores which sell fruit, and Turkish delight, and here you see a tea stall!!!!! All those heaps of what look like spices are actually tea!!!!! Now I am most definitely NOT a tea drinker as most of you know!!! But Turkish tea is different!!!! Firstly it's not drunk with milk. which is perfect for me seeing as I can't drink normal milk!!! Secondly it's flavoured, the most famous flavour is apple! And boy oh boy I tell you Turkish apple tea is so super yummy! I've bought a big box back with me for uni!!!!! And thirdly the Turkish population as a whole has a sweet tooth and so the tea they have is really super sweet even before you've added sugar and so I find it so delicious!!! I can never come back from Turkey without a stash of apple tea to get me through the next year!!!!!


So I lied when I said our hotel was near nothing, when the market sets up it actually backs right onto our hotel! So here's a picture I took of the market from our balcony! It stretches really far up to the left as well! But obviously I couldn't fit it all in the picture!!!! But at least this gives you an idea of what it looks like from the outside!!! Also if you look past the market you can see all there is is forest-ey mountains!!! We really are near nothing!!!!!


Then some time after that our hotel ran a BBQ with like Turkish entertainment and other entertainment and such!!!! I was really proud of my make up that night as well! I did it using three of my Barry M Dazzle Dusts, I used a yellow colour on the inner corners of my eyes, thena bright orange on the edges, and put a glittery coppercolour over the top! And then I put a yellow under my eye brows and over the orange!!!! I know I shouldn't gloat and stuff but I really do love my make up here!!! Absolutely love love love!!!!!


So the first part of the night wasn't exactly traditional Turkish, but this guy does go round to a lot of the hotels in our area and I know I shouldn't but I actually find him so cool hee hee!!! I mean OMG!!!! Please someone get me one of those suits!!! I want a flashing suit!!! And not only does it flash red!!!!!


It goes green, and yellow and blue and purple and white!!!!! Yeah! Hee hee I know I shouldn't but I just love flashing things and it was just so bright and flashey!!!! Mega love for it!!!!

After that there wasa pretty shoddy Michael Jackson impersonator!!! He couldn't even moon walk he just kinda shuffled backwards!!! Father and I were NOT impressed!!!


And then cam the actual acts that seemed Turkish and did some like traditional dancing and such!!!



And here's the belly dancer!!!! I love their outfits they're so pretty! Hee hee I have a burgundy one in one of my wardrobes somewhere!!! Although it's fairly lost! Ah well I'll dig it out some time or another!!! She got all the women up and made us dance around although she did something ina really awkward 5 beats time even though the music was in 4! T'was rather confuzzling I must say!!! Good fun though!!!!


So in the next week once I'd built my colour up a bit we went on the boat ride from Turunc (one village over) the Marmaris, (the town over on the other side from Icmeler),
 I love the boat ride cause the breeze you get from going across the sea means it doesn't even feel that hot and you get some lovely views!!!! Okay admittedly I'm smiling really cheesily in this photo but hey I was really happy! Now I ask you all! Please look at that sky! Do you see a single cloud in that sky? NO! For the whole two weeks we saw not a single cloud!!!! It's such gorgeous weather the time!!! When you know you're going to Turkey for 2 weeks you know you're going to get blissful weather for two weeks! It's my absolute heaven cause everyone knows how easily I get cold!!!!

And everyone!!! Just look how blue that sea is!!! It's like something out of a film it's so gorgeous!!! It makes me want to dive in and have a swim even though I know it's all salty and icky!!!!! Just sooooo blue it's almsot hypnotic!!!! The boat ride was lovely!!!!! And then when we got to Marmaris I had a Burger King - delicious!!!!

Okay so I'm not even sure of when I took this photo!!! But my dad pointed out this really cute little lizard do I decided to get a picture, I had to sneak up on it really slowly and I have picture from further away because I thought those were all I'd get! Obviously this is mega zoomed in as I'm not quite enough to get as close as this picture makes it look like I was!!! But still! I mean look at how prettily coloured it is and it has that bright blue tail! Absolutely gorgeous though! It was as quick as a whippet though and when I took another step closer it was off like a shot down the wall!!!!


Then on the second Friday we were there, so nearly at the end of the holiday, once we'd REALLY built up some colour we went on a jeep safari!!! You have to wait till the end of the holiday cause if you go at the start you really will burn really badly! Cause you're out in an open top jeep from 9 in the morning till 6 in the evening and you don't even feel that hot cause obviously it's windy when you're driving so it is fairly dangerous for sun burn, but cause we left it till the end we were okay!!! So here was our jeep! Now usually when you go on these things in the morning you have  a massive water fight on these country roads with like water pistols and stuff wholst you're driving along, but because of Mr Cameron's double debt recession *hiss* tourism in Turkey has been down this year and we only filled one jeep this day, so obviously there was no one else to have a water fight with which was sad!!!!!


Still had a good time though!!! Our first stop was a beach! This water looked so tempting to go in but I knew I couldn't otherwise I'd get salt rash! I did dip my toes in though cause I only get salt rash above my ankles so I was okay doing this!!!

Then I had a wonder along the peer and sitting reading my book when father yelled at me and I turned around and he took a picture of me!!! I actually really like this picture with the peer and the bay and me and everything altogether I think it's rather good!!!!

 Also at this beach location back in the shade there were hammocks! Omg I actually love hammocks the side to side rocking motion is so soothing!!! I can see why babies love rocking cradles!!! Omg someone should make a bed with rockers!!! Please someone make a bed with rockers!!! I honestly think when I'm a little old lady I am so having a rocking chair for deffo! So here's me in the hammock!!!

Then we had lunch! And after lunch was my fave stop of the whole trip because it was ... THE WATERFALL!!!!! I actually totally mega love the waterfall!!!! There's a fair few pictures of me here cause father's a wuss and stood up on the platform whilst I was in the waterfall! Because unlike the sea, which is trapped in a bay and directly exposed to sunlight, the waterfall is obviously constantly changing water and is also covered by trees so it's shaded so can't warm up!!! As a result it is seriously colder than the sea, ha I think the word i used was ... bracing!!! Ha it's worst when you're walking in and it's about to go over your stomach it's like "eeep! COLD!" Once I'd finally got in though I swam across to this little ledge and posed cause someone else was jumping in so I had to wait my turn!!!!


And then I swam so I could have a picture right next to the waterfall!!!!!

And here's one of me saying something to father once I was about to walk up to the jumping in ledge!!!! You can tell I was cold brrrr!! But it's so worth it, the coldness of the water is exhilerating!!!!!!


So here's a really good one dad got of me jumping in!!!! As you can see you have to be careful when jumping in cause there are rocks and stuff about and lower ledges that stick out more so you have to be careful when jumping that you make sure to jump out so you can get into the deep bit of the pool! But it was so amazing and I am an adrenaline junkie so it's always fun!!! Yeah I really love this bit of the trip it's amazing!!!!!!


So after I'd gone in the jump in-ey pool, we went up again to the next pool where part of a stream joins the main waterfall and it whooshes down these rocks!!! I deffo wanted a picture here! So here it is!!!! I'm not sat very nicely though or anything though cause it's hard to balance cause the stones have all been worn away by the water making them super slippery!!! So you have to be careful!!!!


Then before we left to go to Jesus beach I saw this little dragon fly and snapped a pic cause it was a gorgeous bright blue!!! Not the best pic, but ah well, it is the best of the ones I got! Hopefully it's good enough for you all to be able to see!!!!! So I said this was before Jesus beach!!!! Now I shall explain what Jesus beach is!!! It's this bay and across half of the bay there's a natural sand walk way and it allows you to look as if you're almost walking across water, cause it drops away either side into the deep sea, whereas the sandis only a couple of centimetres below the top of sea!!! I would have taken a pic but I forgot!!! Sorry!!! and it's fairly hard to explain as well!!!! SOWWY!!!!!!


So then we just chilled around the pool and I read again until we went home on Tuesday, apart from a trip into Marmaris for shopping at this really cool shop in the Point Centre called "Trendy" where they do a brand called Kikiriki which is only available in America and Turkey, I love this brand so whilst I'm there I always buy up cause they do such me things! It's such a me shop!!! even the calculator they use had been blinged!!!! But anyway!!! Yes back to purchases!!!!

So this was a pink bag that I bought from the market it's Louis Vuitton and was supposed to be 100 lira (the Turkish currency, roughly £35), in the end I managed to get the guy down to 40 lira so that was about £15!!!! I'm fairly proud with myself I think!!!!


That bag was from the first week's market and these tee shirts were also from the first weeks I got these two Hello Kitty Tee shirts for 20 lira (£7)!!! I think I must have like 8 Hello Kitty tee shirts now I think!!! Hee hee I really do love Hello Kitty!!! They're lovely!!!!! And comfy and cheap as well which makes them all the better!!!!!!


Then in the second week I got a new Mulberry! So I already have a brown one and now I have a red one!!! I have so many red clothes I thought I did desperately need a decent big red handbag so here it is!!! I think I paid a little more for this than I did for the pink one cause the guy was being really annoying and wouldn't let me go below a certain price despite me wandering off!!!!! But yes the similar price was okay and I think it should last me just like my last one has!!!!!


Okay so here's some Raki I bought, I've always wanted to try Turkish Raki cause apparently it's anissed-ey so I'm assuming it'll be like Sambuca!!!! But yeah I still haven't tried any yet cause I'm saving it for a special occasion!!! I also got a smaller bottle for Hanny as her holiday present and I'm gonna get to give her it on Saturday!!! Hopefully she'll like it!!! As you probably guess though this is not from the market and this is from the supermarket!!!! I accidentally put it in with the market stuff!!!! Now back to the market stuff!!!!


So I collect these little bejewelled animals!!! They open up in half as well! You can kinda see the split if you look at the bird's chest!!! Also you can't really see the jewels from this angle either which is annoying, youcan see a few on it's head but they run all the way down it's back and make it look super cute and sparkly!!!!


And to go with the parrot I got a peacock!!!! So now I have 6 of these little animals!!! They make a lovely little collection now I think!!! I'm gonna get some more next year as well I think!!! Probably an elephant and an owl!!!! So far now I have a frog, a sea horse, a crocodile, a lizard, a parrot and a pea cock!!!! Squee so sparkly!!!!!


And the final thing I got from the market is this tea towel!!! Hee hee I know it doesn't look much but I bought it for going to uni so for me it's quite exciting cause it's another thing for my bottom drawer!!!! I still need much more things for my bottom drawer though!!! Like pink saucepans!!! I am desperate for some pink saucepans!!!!!!!! But yes here's my little tea towel with all the big sites of Turkey on!!!!!


And next are the 4 items from Trendy!!!! Okay so here is the item which pained me the most to buy!!!! These shorts are the most expensive pair of shorts I have ever bought I worked out they cost £44 in English money and I really ummed and aahed about buying them! but the fact I have been killing for a pair of black shorts with gold detailing on them for the past 2 years and have seen nothing like them in England!!! If i thought I could have got these shorts in England or something I would have left them and tried to buy them in England!!! But I thought I wouldn't be able to find anything like them so I bought them!!! I've already worn them 3 times now so I certainly think I'm gonna be getting my wear out of them!!! They're by a brand called "AMN JEANS, Madness National" So I'm gonna see if maybe they deliver to the UK cause they might have some other hot stuff!!!!

So the next item is by that brand I was going on about earlier Kikiriki!!!! It's a really cute corset style top but made girly with the floral print and black frills!!! I think this top will be really useful cause it can do cute or sexy, casual or smart all depending on what you team it with!!! I love versatile clothing like this so no doubt you'll see me wearing it some time soon!!!!



The other thing I bought that's Kikiriki is this skirt!!! I have actually been looking for a skirt like this for aaaages as well (like I said this shop does perfect me things!) and this skirt is just a absolute dream for me!!!! It's got frills, lace and animal print!!! It will work with a lot of my wardrobe as well cause it's brown and black!!! I envisage getting a lot of wear from this as well!!! I already have plans to wear it for my night out on Saturday!!!!!


The final thing I bought from trendy is this little black tee with a bling slogan on it!!! It's really great for casual but still has that glam feel I love especially cause of the slogan it has "don't just stay, stay glam!" How awesome!!!!! This tee shirt is by a brand called VDP club again I'm gonna try and search their website cause whilst I was in the shop there were loads of other tee shirts by this brand that I fell in love with but they were all really pricey cause they had more bling on whereas this one was only about £15! But yes I want to see if I can get some more of their stuff when I've done some extra shifts with work!!!!


So yep!!! That's the end of the Turkey post!!!! I hope you've enjoyed the sum up of my holiday!!! I hope you haven't got too bored either!!! I was aware there are a tonne of pictures!!! I did try and cut down as much as possible but I'm not really sure I managed too well! Ah well hopefully you made it to the end of this post and if you did! Woooo Thankyou!!!! I'm gonna try and get the Holiday Part 2 post up as soon as possible so this doesn't feel too disjointed but it took literally hours to get these posts up so the only promise I can try to make is before Sunday!!!! I will try my absolute best to get as much done tonight as possible though!!!!! Anyway much love!!!!!

I'm Backkk!!! Night Out, Olympic Torch and Afternoon Cocktails!

Hey everyone!!!!! Eeeeek well I'm back!!! My last blog update was waaaaay back in November which seems such a long time ago!!! It really is!!!! But since November it's like I haven't had a life!!! First I was revising for my January exams! And then literally as soon as they were over I had to start revising for these Summer exams!!! Me and Haz have practically been living in the library!!!! So yeah! I basically had to put my life on hold! But now!!! I have my life back!!!! Hee hee so now I can document every aspect of it! So here we are!!!

So to celebrate, Haz, Victoria, Anisha and I decided we'd go out for a night out in Halo!!! Victoria and Ani were away somewhere else during the day, so Haz came over to mine to get ready!!!! she arrived at 7 and we were just about ready by 9! But I'd been getting ready since 4 OMG!!!! So long!!!! But here's a full outfit shot of us two together when we were FINALLY ready!!!!

Haz was wearing an LBD from Primark that really had some really awesome cut outs in it!!! It's totally body con as well which shows off her awesome figure!!!! I think it's super sexy but could totally be worked as like a classy outfit as well, ha well with the evil thick black tights!!!! But yeah anyway!!!! And I was wearing an emerald green body con dress from American Apparel! I really love this dress, the colour is so yummy and because it's lycra it's totally body hugging as well!!!!

Shoes wise we were both wearing some high heels from this little stall in the Arndale Market in Manchester!!! They were both total snaps!!!! Haz's were £24.99 and mine were £27.99!!! so awesome! Haz's are all patent leather look and mine are a gorgeous red suede with flowers on!!1 And as you can see Haz teamed hers with black over the knee socks!!! They make her legs look so unbelievably long and yummy!!!!


So here's one which shows the back of my dress! It has a racer style back (I think that's the right word??? Any fahsionistas are welcome to correct me!!!) So yeah I love the back of this! Especially now the stress rash from my back has gone!!! Hee hee you can even see my birth mark! One day I pkan to get loads of glitter pens and get an arty person to do a fabulous design on my back!!! So it's more about the back then the front!!! But that's totally for another day!!!
So here are two close ups of my hair and make!!! My hair took TWO HOURS AND FORTY FIVE MINUTES!!!! Honestly that long!!! I have loads of ways of curling my hair you see, some are really uber quick and I can do all of my hair in like 15minutes! But then this particular way takes forever!!! And I usually end up burning my fingers!!! But I think it's quite effective for getting the princess like curls that I love oh so much!!! I always feel a bit like Taylor Swift when I curl my hair like this!!!!!

Make up wise I'd gone for a red lip, with Mac's Russian Red, Dita Von Teese's signature lip colour of course!!! And if Miss Teese rocks it then it's officially an amazing colour!!! Eye wise I used my Too Faced Smokey Eye palette and did a bottle green and black smokey flick eye!!!! My smokey eye make up is always super neat cause I just can't do and don't suit the smudgey smokey eye!!!! Ha I don't think I'm good enough at casual for it or something!!! Anyway!


Once Haz and I were done Ani and Victoria came to pick us up and once they were dolled up we hopped on the train to Leeds!!!!! Here's a pic of us on the train!!! It was totally weird cause we bumped into Beth Gill at the train station and she came over and hugged us!!! It was deffo weird making ha!!!! Apparently I've also changed so much, but then not at all at the same time!!! Ha I tend to get that alot!!! Maybe it's because of my baby face!!!!


Oh and here's one of Haz and I, I'm not quite sure why I put this one here, but I've done all my formatting now so I can't be bothered moving it up to the others!!! So here's a pic that shows Haz's make up!!! She'd used a pink eye shadow andthen done black eye liner with a nudey pink lip colour to match the eye shadow!!! I think it's nice cause that teamed with the socks just adds a bit of playful-ness to her outfit don't you feel???

Oh now I know why! That's also the last photo!!!! Ha I'm never very good at taking photos on nights out!!! I always forget! So basically! We got to the club, but then Victoria started feeling a bit ill and the flashing lights weren't helping so she had to go home and Anisha went home with her!!! So Haz and I were left by ourselves!!! We bumped into loads of people who used to go to our school and stuff which was totally surrreal making!!! And then Haz got a date with this very dapper gentleman who's taking her to Manchester next week!!!! Good luck Haz honey! I hope it works out well!!! We had such an awesome night dancing before coming home and toppling into bed!!! Ha when we were walking up the garden path though Haz had taken her shoes off ... And then stood on a snail!!!! Ha made me giggle so much! Bleurgh icky snail socks hee hee!!! Still it was awesome!!!


So we woke up the next morning and then Haz's mum came to collect her and I went off to my mothers cause we had plans to go to a party at her friend's house to see the Olympic Torch as it went through Lister Park!!! HOWEVER!!!! I went for an afternoon nap at 12, and instead of mum waking me up before she left at 1:30 so I could come with her! She decided it would be a good idea to let me sleep!!! So I missed it *pouts*!!!! I was mega upset, cause obviously like it's a once in a life time oppertunity to see the torch in person in your own home country!!! Mum could see I was really upset, so she drove me ALL the way to Leeds to see it squee!!!!! I was so super grateful!!!!

So here was the start of the relay on the bit we were seeing and here's the guy getting off the Olypic bus who was gonna carry the torch on this stretch! It was totally exciting cause not only did Mum and I get to see them running with the torch but we also got to see a change over which was mega exciting!!!!

Then a really random parade of buses came round!!!! One of them was a Coca Cola bus just like in the ads squee!!! They were giving out free bottles of coke!!!! But they missed us out!!! Was mega upsetful!!!! Still the bus itself was really uber cool!!!!! They even had a band in the back!!!! Next came the Samsung bus which was just plain weird!!!!!!

Even weirder was the fact that Lloyds TSB had a bus!!! Ha we were like "what on Earth!!!" It was a pretty cool looking bus though!!! I wouldn't mind owning something like that one day!!! Hee hee just without all the Lloyds TSB insignia on me thinks!!!! Maybe in like a pink!!! But with all like flowers and hippy dippy insignia on!!! Like one of the little VW camper vans!!! I would mega love thatt!!!!


So here's the guy stood around with his torch waiting!!! My mum's boss was doing some torch bearing somewhere else and was saying the torch bearers actually have to buy their own torches and it costs like £250!!! Ouchies ne!!! But I totally think it's worth it cause you get to keep the torches after! I mean what a fantastic piece of memorabilia!!! Mega want!!! I might ask mum's boss if I can have a picture with his!!! That would be so cool!!! Hee hee I can pretend I actually carried the torch!!!!

So as you can see in the pic above there's a policeman in the back cause they'd closed off the road!!!! Becauseeee the previous runner was coming carrying the torch!!! So here he is!!! Closely followed by another Olympic bus!!!!

And here's like the proper change over!!!! I couldn't believe it!!! Maybe I'm like overly patriotic and stuff like that! And too much team spirit-ness but I got so really super excited!!! And I also think this is a really good pic of the change over!!!



So once his torch was lit the guy set off running and I was like "OMG I'm actually seeing someone only a couple of metres away run with the Olympic torch!!!!!" Ha I really shouldn't get so excited over such small things but to me that was a really big deal!!!!!!


And there he goes dashing off down the road with the torch!!! Look at how many people came out to see him!!! There were loads of little kids there as well which made me really happy!!! I think it's super important kids are taken to see these things, like cause theseare once in a life time oppertunities, even if at the time they don't seem like a big deal!!!! I know when I have kids I'll be dragging them everywhere even if they moan!!! Hopefully they won't though! Cause there was like people there playing music and stuff so it was really fun!!! Totally a worthwhile experience!!!!


So that was Sunday!!! And now skip forward to Tuesday!!!! I had my last ever proper exam on Monday as well! That's it! School done with!!! Such a weird though!!! Cause I've been at BGGS since I was 4 so it's been such  big part of my life! And now! Apart from like prom and results day! That's it! But anyway! Yeah! So on Tuesday after work I had plans to meet Lina and Hannah for a Kaffeeklatch (which is basically a German word for a natter over coffee!!! It's a good word so I'm totally adopting it into my vocabulary!!!) So yeah!!!! For it I worse my brown silk blouse! Denim mini! Brown boots! And also in this pic I have brown tights on! Although I didn't have the whole time cause for a lot of the time it was pretty warm! I'd just got a bit chilly by this point!!!! So yeah! I quite like this outfit!!! Casual gyaru style I feel!!!

And here's my make up!!! I went fairly natural and neutral with really light foundation and blusher, no lippy, and just brown and tan eye make up!!!! I think I've pulled off natural pretty well!!! I didn't do anything with my hair except pullit into a side plait cause I'd been at work all day!!!! But yeah!!! so that's me!!!


Now! Technically the first person to arrive was Hannah!!! But we didn't take any pics straight away!!! And then we bumped into Jie Jie as well cause she was in town getting her dress altered!!! Before Lina finally tottered over!!! Because it was warm we'd decided to sit outside BUT!!! the wind kept making the fountain blow over us so here's a pic of Lina looking absoluely adorable sat with her brolly up to protect her from the evil fountain!!! Ha I never carry a brolly but Lina Bear always has everything!!! Hee hee she looked so peculiar!!!!


Then we moved over cause we decided after coffee we'd have cocktails so we moved round to infront of D Bar so we could get a fishbowl of Sex on the Beach!!! Mega love for yummy sweet cocktails!!! So here's Lina looking rather indignant!!! We were having a discussion on where exactly one draws the line between being straight, gay and bi!!! Ha it turns out it's a very wobbly sometimes disappearing line!!!!!!!! Ha was a super fun debate though!!!!!

And here's Hannah!!! She wasn't too amused at my camera cause she doesn't have any make up on!!! But I think she still looks lovely here!!!! And her hair looks really pretty as well! In fact Hannah is just pretty!!! Make up or no!!! And OMG!!! Everyone look at her tights!!! They are the coolest thing ever!!! And they're from Morrisons!!! Talk bout bargain or what!!!! I mega mega want some!!!!!


And here's another one of me and Hannah sat next to each other hee hee!!! You can see how unammused she is!!!!!!!

So I never explained the point of the whole kaffeeklatch!!! I have a crinoline I use for with my vintage dresses and Hannah has a prom on Thursday (today then!!!), but no crinoline for her dress so she borrowing mine!!!!! She was pulling it out of the bag to look at it and held it up to herself and me and Jie Jie were like!!! That looks totally hot!!! It really does don't you think!!! We;ve toold her she has to wear it like that one day!!! If she does I will make sure to get totally loads of photos!!!! And here's Jie Jie in the first photo of her!!!!

So here are we!!!! How yummy and delicious does her new pink hair look!??!!? She did it for prom on Saturday!!! I just know she's gonna look lush!!!! and look at her make up!!! She really does do beautiful smokey eye make up!!!! I need her to teach me how to do it some time!!!!

 

Oh by this point Lina had left to go have tea with her girlfriend in Manchester in Hard Rock cafe (jealous!!!!!) So it was just us three!!! Hee hee sisterly love!!!!!


So as I explained it was just us three at this point!!! And we came up with a TOTALLY awesome idea all of a sudden!!! We're gonna hold ... A FLASH TEA PARTY!!! Now I'm sure everyone's heard of a flash mob!!! I've always wanted to be part of a flash mob! But I don't think I'm cool enough!!! But this well this is different!!! We're just gonna hold a massive mad hatter's tea party in fancy dress in the middle of Centenmary Square!!! We think it's the best idea ever and so far we have 8 people signed up!!! I deffo think if you have a fancy dress costume and would enjoy drinking alcohol out of tea pots whilst cam whoring and having an awesome time you should totally come!!! It's an open invitiation the more the merrier!!! But we do request if you come, fancy dress is required and it would be nice if you brought along a bottle of something and some cup cakes or cookies or something! Just to share with everyone!!!! We're hoping it's a success!!!


Anyway! Blogosphere!!! All I can say is it feels good to be back!!! I've missed you all so much *huggles* I hope to be writing again soon!!! After prom will probably be the next one!!! Much love to you all!!!
