HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

I have sadly finally joined the 21 club the last out of all my friends. I'm glad I'm the last birthday as I seriously don't want to grow up! Being old is no fun I wish I was a kid forever! I'm the most immature & definitely don't look 21 at all & can probably still pass for 16. I don't feel older but the fact I am older & I know I am it makes me feel old if that makes sense? 

Gabby got my a cactus!

She also got me a yankee candle,  I can't smell pineapple though

Macarons from Patisserie Valerie

Leather Jacket - Matalan

Bag - Topshop

Top - From Danielle - New Look

Necklace - Mango via Asos

Jeans - Hollister

Cutout Boots - Zara 

These are the worst jeans ever I don't understand them like they are massive around my hips. I know they're super low & I got them when I was like 16 & a lot skinner but even now they still don't fit!

I went to the gym in the morning so nothing special or different. I think I fell asleep during the end of yoga when we do our relaxation... As I missed a step out! It's not the first time I fell asleep when I was jet legged from Florida. Didn't do anything all day then went to the pub with Gabby, Kelly & Danielle. These are only photos with me & Kelly as we were sitting next to each other.

These are gifts I got off my Auntie & Uncle & Gabby. Hannah has my presents off Kelly & Danielle but she couldn't go last night but they've got a surprise for me tomorrow so it'll be my birthday round 2. Holly couldn't make it to the pub as my mum was being a pain & in the afternoon I'd rearrange the pub from yesterday night to tonight but then as my mum wasn't doing anything last night I didn't want to stay at home I changed it back when she changed her plans. But I'm hoping to go go-karting in a couple of weeks which will be my birthday round 3.

I went to Rome with my mum & dad last week which is meant to be my birthday/graduation present. I've been meaning to do a post of Rome but I took a lot of photos which I need to go through so hopefully I'll get that up before the end of the week!

What a coincidence this is post 127, my birthday is on the 27th & 27 is my "lucky"/favourite number.

Also we went to my nan's for dinner on Sunday. The first image shows the table all laid ready to eat! There are quite a few dishes but they're actually the same things each end of the table so everyone can reach. We had crispy duck & pancake as well as the usual rice & different dishes of food.

How pretty do these cakes look?! My auntie made them. They're pastry & inside is custard & coconut. The white are plain, the green are green tea flavoured & red are beetroot. But you can't taste the beetroot. I love the filling the pastry not too keen as it was quite dry which not much flavour but they look too good to eat! She definitely needs to go on the bake off!

Dressed like a boy

Checked Shirt - Hollister couple of years ago

Jeans - Zara Sale

Anchor Print Converse - T.K.Maxx

I've been living in these jeans pretty much the whole of summer. Whenever the weather hasn't been suitable to wear shorts I've worn these jeans! They're really comfy & seem to go with everything in my wardrobe! I also love how Frodo tried to get into the picture. He's likes to make an appearance on my blog!

Today's weather has been horrible & rubbish! Just as I left the house to take Frodo for a walk it started to rain! So we had to go back & then it just poured down pretty much all day & was quite chilly too. So I spent the day watching the World Championships. I really wish I was an athlete & that my mum pushed me when I was little to do more sports!

 When my mum got home from work we took an unplanned visit to my auntie's new house. Meaning I just missed Usain Bolt win the 200m! :( Well I say new as we've never been & they moved in sometime before Christmas last year.. It's a really weird house the bathroom is downstairs!

Hoping to go car boot hunting tomorrow morning if the weather's nice but I think it's meant to be raining which means we'll give it a miss. I haven't been this year & there never seems to by anything good unlike all the other bloggers where you see all the amazing vintage & new stuff they manage to snap up!

Topshop Sale

Checked Shirt - Hollister (about 2/3 years ago) 
MOTO Vintage Kristen Skinny Jeans - Topshop

As you can see my 8,000 words worth of essays all due in Monday 14th January is going so well that I went to Topshop! I seriously don't know where to start & don't know what I'm doing as I've left it so long to do! I've made a start but no-where near finished! Why did I pick a 4,000 word essay module?! I hate uni so much! I wish I could have my dream job at the BBC then I could drop out of uni! :(

I got a denim jacket as I surprisingly haven't got one! (I have a tie-dye denim vest my mum got my from China last year.) It was only £9 reduced from £40! (Topshop are great that they still give student discount on sale items!) It's a size 14 which is 4 sizes too big for me but it actually fits alright, it doesn't look too big for me apart from when I button it up. I can wear a hoodie under it & wear layers & isn't cropped like it's meant to be. I also got another ear chain cuff to add to my collection I have 3 now! I am obsessed & love them! I also got a pack of 3 rings, I love double finger rings even though they do restrict you a little bit..

I'm on the hunt for a faux fur collar waxed jacket. Sadly they've all gone in the sale & are now sold out! :( I really want one! Next had a nice one but the one in town & Speke don't have it no more! Anyone know where I can get one??

I got an email from Look today with Primark's S/S 2013 collection & they have some really nice stuff in! I don't really shop in Primark as I don't really like their stuff & it's always really busy & messy so I avoid it. I'd buy some of the things from the collection but I don't think they'll all be in store! :(

Denim Dungarees

£17

China Print Dress

£20

Heart Cut Out Prom Dress

£15

Embroided Patch Denim Shirt

£12

Embroided Patch Denim Shorts - £12

Stripe Skinny Ankle Grazer - £13

These are my favourite items from the Primark S/S 2013 Collection. They're all very cheap & affordable! The shirt looks like one they had in Topshop but more than half the price! Same with the shorts & striped jeans! I love a good bargain so will definitely be on the look out for all these during the next couple of months! :-)

You can see the rest of the collection here

I really shouldn't be on here for a while as I still have so much work to do for the 14th! So I'm off to try & finish it now :(

Christmas Wish List!

TOPSHOP

AJ Cut Out Heavy Ankle Boot - £95 These are like the Jeffrey Campbell Roscoe boots but I think these are nicer & a lot more cheaper & 'affordable' (Still think these are expensive though!) Been after a pair of ankle boots & are stuck between these or them --->

Adonis2 Cut Out Boots - £75 (First out were £95)  These are cheaper than <---- & have been wanting them for a couple of months now & actually sold out & had a fault on the buckle but have been re-released with a different buckle & cheaper!

Amaze 2 Eva Stripe Wedge Boots - £75 These are like the Henry Holland wedges worn on tights packets for the suspender tights & are a lot cheaper & affordable! I've been wanting a pair of wedges for ages & these are just perfect!

Prickle Premium Chelsea Boots - £120 I have a bit of an obsession with shoe boots at the moment & these are studded! Just perfect for me! <3

MOTO Acid Spray Hotpants - £32 I have an obsession with high waitsted shorts & just shorts in general...

Zip Out Borg Clean Parka - £100 They had this coat in last year but it was navy & I really wanted it as it's the perfect coat I'm looking for a waterproof fur lined parka! Is it really too might to ask for?! The only reason I didn't buy it last year & not bought it now is I really don't think it's worth the £100 price tag...

Spike Drape Ear Cuff - £7.50 Love ear cuffs but £7.50 for 1?! That's really expensive!!

Pearl Swirl Ear Cuff - £6.50 Love this! Not seen anything like this around!

Twisted Link Rope Necklace - £10 Obsessed & love layered necklaces! Especially chain gold ones! <3 I really want a vintage Chanel One :(

Extra Long Ball Chain Necklace - £12.50 How is this necklace more expensive than that one <--- ?? It's only one & that one is like 3 in 1??

ZARA

Zip Biker Coat - £119 Wish I could afford this :(

Studded Check Shirt £39.99 My 3 favourite things.. Studs + checked shirt & green!

Studded Ankle Boots with Straps - £129 So expensive! But the leather looks so nice!

Studded Bike Ankle Boot - £79.99 I really really want these! But I've already got a pair of leather bike boots I got last year but they haven't got studs on or look as nice as these :(

I just want everything from Zara but it's gone so expensive lately! :( & the quality is still quite rubbish sadly so it's not really worth the price tag! Spanish made clothes seem to be all rubbish quality, they really need to sort it out because they can't charge that much when it clearly isn't worth it!

NIKE

Nike Blazer Mid Vintage Leather Light Charcoal Sail - £66.99 (Office) I've been after these grey leather blazers for like a year now! At first they only seem to sell the suede ones which I do like but in England with our crappy weather suede really isn't the most suitable material! They would just get ruined once you step foot out of the house! I think grey is the best colour as it goes with anything more than black & white (I wouldn't mind them either!) but I think with what I wear grey would be better

Nike Blazer Mid Leather Trainers Maroon - £67 (Asos) I love the colour of these but I don't really own anything maroon other than my pinafore so it'd be hard to colour co-ordinate!

Nike x Liberty At the start of this year Liberty London collaborated with Nike to produce these pretty blazers! I love these so much they're so pretty & love the colours! <3 Sadly they're now sold out & I can't seem to find these anywhere I'm dying for this pair!

Nike x Liberty They actually made quite a few different designs. These 2 are my favourite I can't really decide which pair I prefer more! If anyone wants to buy me either (or both) I really won't complain!

DR MARTENS

Dr Marten Spike Boot - £275 (Dr Martens Website) These are amazing I've been wanting a pair of Dr Martens for a few years now + spikes!! <3 I just can't afford them even though I would wear them 275 times so would get my wear for them! I just can't part with that amount of money on one item! :(

Dr Martens Harlen Shoe - £195 (Dr Martens Website) I've also been wanting a pair of brogues & spikes! Just <3

BELTS

Zara Belt with Flat & Cone Studs - £19.99 Studs & Spikes belt! <3

H&M Belt - £6.99 How cool is this belt with the double buckle??

Hollister Easy Fit Trestles Beach Sweater - £44 I love this jumper it just looks so snug & comfy! But £44 is a lot for a jumper considering my nan knitted me a long cardi for less that £6! Hollister has gone up in price I remember when they first opened their store in Liverpool One & had a sale I got my checked shirts for only £13, hoodie for £16 & jeans for £13 too! But there is no way you can get anything that cheap now!

Adidas 3 stripe essential hoody - £45 (JD Sports website) Love this hoody & the colours of the stripes!

American Apparel Riding Pants - £64 Even though I don't like American Apparel as it is extremely over priced plain sports wear, with a porn website I love the riding, disco pants & shorts but they are so expensive & the quality isn't even good either! They've gone up in price as well now but I really really want a pair of green riding pants (or blue or black!) But there is no way I'm paying £64 for them. Shops need to hurry up with their copies!

Motel Black Medusa Leather Look Skater Dress - £57.99 (Ark Website) 3 of my favourite things in 1 again! Studs + Leather + Skater dress! But with this price tag you could mistake it for a real leather dress!

SpiritHoods Grey Wolf - £99 (Asos) I've been wanting a SpirtiHoods for agesss! But can't decide which is my favourite I think these too are but they have loads of different animals. I think £99 is far too expensive though!

SpiritHoods Red Fox - £99 (Asos) Looks so warm & lovely fluffy! :(

So these are just some of the things I really want at the moment! However this list of "wanting" & "needing" is never ending as it just adds by the minute when I see something else! I've just seen something else I want to add onto this but I think there's enough already here! I doubt I'll end up getting any of these items for Christmas as my parents never buy me what I want or listen but I'll hopefully try & snatch some of these items in the sales after Christmas. Definitely a pair of ankle boots & grey Nike Blazers! :-) (I like to label myself as a well dressed poor person ;))

I love that studs & leather is so in at the moment as I do have a crazy obsession with studs & leather I don't really know why but they are the perfect combination! <3

What I want most for Christmas is actually standing tickets to see The Killers at Wembley in June 2013! I keep telling my dad everyday but I don't think he's listening to me so I might just have to buy them for myself again as I finally got to see them in my hometown 3 weeks ago Friday (Friday 9th November 2012) & it was the best day of my life I touched Brandon Flowers!!! <3 They were amazing & surprisingly standing Wembley tickets aren't that much more than what I paid for standing in the Echo Arena! It'll just be travelling & possibly accommodation in London that will cost me quite a bit but I'm sure it'll be worth the once in a life time chance! 
Car insurance would be great too as I past 1st time over a year now & only driven about 5x & not been left on my own! & gym membership forever dreaming of a 6 pack :(

Anyway that's enough from me for now.. I really don't ask for much.. If anyone wants to buy me anything that's been mentioned in this post I will love you & won't have a clue how I will repay you but you will be remembered & be the best person ever, I will be so happy you won't understand!
