Just a quicky. As Grace says, we should do lots of little posts rather than feeling scared to post because it must be planned, and readable, and coherent. BAH! Who needs those things, when there are beautiful things we can look at without having to think about very much. Such a thing. Or… things… are these videos that I found today after checking up on netaporter. So, I get the gist that Stella McCartney has done a capsule collection ’specially for netaporter, and someone has made these lovely videos to show off the lovely ethereal clothes. Here, I found ‘em on youtube and invite you to have a looksee. Excuse the lack of sense in the formation of words and sentences in this. I have been studying Spanish, then Irish, and French in the past few hours and my brain is a bit mussed up. Yeyuhh, and I can’t be bothered to even read over this and fix the nonsensical-ness. I can talk the way I wanna talk, hey!

illness leads to contemplation, which leads to REALLY NEEDING A SHOPPING SPREE~!

According to medicinenet.com, Influenza symptoms include fever, respiratory problems, headache, muscle ache, fatigue, and sometimes nausea. Check, check, check, sextuple check! So, while I was wary of saying it, because of often giving out about people throwing the term around willy-nilly, I think, on my fifth day in bed, I’m gonna do it. I have the FLU!

I feel like doing a clothes-related post. I feel like I haven’t shopped properly in ages, and there are some things I am really wanting. REAAALLLY wanting. I’ve been salivating over  netaporter.com, which has a sale and is amazingly good value, almost the same type of prices for some things as on Asos, which I had a look at. Wasn’t that impressed, however. But the Topshop website has got me aching to go on a shopping spree. Lately I’ve been really stressed and tired all the time, leaving me really un-bothered about dressing interestingly. I also feel much more self concious about my body than I have in a long time. It’s like the more unhappy I get with myself, the unhappier I get, the more I eat, the fatter I get, the more I eat… etc etc. So I’ve been dressing in a really boring way, just jeans and t shirts mostly, and loadsa black.
BUT NOW! I’ve gotten this surge of motivation to go buy, and I feel for the first time in ages that not only do I feel like I need to get new stuff, but I know what I want, too. It’s fantastic, but also painful, because I’m not sure the next time I’ll get to go shopping.
Anyway, I think I’ll do up a few little outfits of things I WAAAAAANNNNNNTTTTTTT….

untitled1
All from Topshop, bar the t-shirt, which is American Apparel. I really want these jeans, maybe. I need to try the on, though, because I have made an image in my head of how they’d look on: all slouchy and ending a bit above my ankles. Maybe if I bought them too big… And I’m falling for fringe, too… I want a pair of fringed moccasins, what’s gotten into me? It’s so un-me. But with a pair of super skinny jeans they could look pretty hot…

Okay, that’s all I have time for, so I’ll get some more pictures up of things I want.

For my own benefit, of course, since hardly anyone reads this.

A Wintery Blog

What is UP?
Welllll…
It is January, and we’re just back to school (ugh). My main news is that I was in the Alps just after Christmas for a week, so I feel like talking about that. I seem to only post anytime I’ve been abroad, which is kinda silly because I’m not abroad that often. But maybe that’s the reason why it works, because I rarely have the energy to blog so whenever I get it together it just happens to be every six months or so, which has ended up coinciding with my travels!

So, the Alps! It was a very quick decision to go. See, I have a Parisien aunt-in-law who has a family chalet in a little town in the Alps called Les Contamines and she has been telling me to come with her for years and years, but I never took her up on her offer. But about three weeks before Christmas I thought that it would be a great idea to go and stay there to try out a bit of skiing and to practice my French. So I quickly okayed it with her and booked flights for the day after St. Stephen’s day. On arrival I was TOTALLY breathless with amazement. Imagine a set for The Sound of Music painted by Michelangelo, with pointy snowy mountains and clear blue skies. That was the view everywhere I looked. It felt like someone had rolled down a canvas all around the ski resort for my entertainment. (Remind you of anyone, Grace?)

I have started to listen to Carla Bruni a lot! (This happened in my preparation for France, to get into the moooooood..!) But I love love lovvvee her now. Or some songs. And I just found out she doesn’t write them which is a bit of a let down. Oh well, she has a pretty voice…

Let me leave you with a song and pictures to enjoy (:
