Treat em green keep 'em well, erm green....

Today I wore leggings as part of my 'i just don't care I don't have class for a week and it's a Friday' state of mind. BAD MOVE! It seriously highlighted to me that I am looking more ‘heffer’ than ‘Schiffer’ i am putting on weight, piling on the pounds, carrying a bit, looking a bit cuddly, letting myself go, am a few steps closer to a heart attack ...and I blame law school (not the tub of ‘knock off'  Ben&Jerry’s ice-cream in front of me- which I must say is uber -yumcious and I really might stock up on it whilst it is on special offer).

 ANYWAY... Back to my woes...these really are unfortunate times. Let me explain, if I have a bad day I compensate with bad food or shopping. Unfortunately for me on the LPC every day is a bad day and due to a severe lack of funds and the fact that I am currently embroiled in an ongoing dispute with ASOS (again) I have had to indulge in the former. Now, there are multiple opportunities to lament into a muffin or cry into a cafe latte.  Thus I am going to post some pre-sadness photos of one of my favourite dresses re-vamped for the arctic chill.

I  have already expressed my sock problem to all of you here and to my dismay none of you have tried to stop me. You’ll all be sorry when I cut eye-holes into them, put them over my head and come and stand outside your bedroom windows at night.

 I shall be called.....SOCKRATES...the toe raider.

Ooooh, p.s. I am on what we law students call ‘consolidation week’ which means I have no classes but does still mean I have no life...I will endeavour to increase my blogging rate!

P.p.s, that watch isn't mine, if I could afford a Raymond Weil i probably wouldn't even bother doing an LPC

Loves  ya  muchly!!

I call her Brenda..

Today I looked liked a Scottish Pirate Barmaid. Her name is Brenda.

Here is Brenda walking down some stairs

She cadnae look any more like a poser

Here is Brenda looking smoulderingly into the camera

Here is Brenda taking some wee orders from the other pirates

(for haggis mainly)

Eventually though Brenda had to go home to the moors where the other wee lasses were waiting....

Top : Primark

Skirt H&M

Bag: River Island

Waistcoat: I know my mum has not even noticed it is missing....

Lies and Deceit....

Picture the scene, it's a Saturday morning, all you have to look forward to is the library. You've checked the weather report from four different sources and have been assured that England will be 'basking in unseasonably warm temperatures' something of an 'Indian summer'.Filled with anticipation and delight at the fact that it is October and not -15 degrees celcius you don a pair of shorts (obviously) a silk top, a whimsical jacket...Sure you look fly 'aint no-one can tell you nuthin- nuh-uh.

But then as the icy chill sweeps across your bare knees you realise...............


THIS IS ENGLAND

now you are just cold....

The End

I just realised that these shorts make me look like I am in my second tri-mester....time to let go????

*No weathermen were hurt in the making of this blog post

Guys, I’m tired, you know the latent tiredness that sits just behind the eyes. The type that 6 and a half hours sleep just won’t cure, the fall asleep on the bus,  nearly fall into your coffee, people are talking but you can’t quite hear them kinda tired. I am Nytol!

Unfortunately for me I refuse to pay £3.45 for ‘energy boosting’ smoothies and I don’t want to ingest ginseng, pomegranate or jojoba (mainly because I am not trying to add body and shine to my intestines) or any other new fangled hoity-toity power drinks, i just want my mum’s (highly calorific) hot chocolate and I just want to be free.

Below are a few pictures of me in my lpc-induced prison cell. I am wearing an adaptation the original burglar uniform- something new for 2010....very Chanel....No?

This last picture of me was taken using CCTV.... In the bag is a lifetime's supply of staplers and blu tac....ah, the loot of the library.

I'm walking on sunshine....almost

Last of the Summer Shine.... (sad face)

Alas it is almost certainly the last day of the summer so OBVIOUSLY instead of doing my tax reading, I hit the park instead....It didn't do anything to me I'm just violent like that!

Anyway, I realised I am a little bit like a magpie, i like big shiny pretty things (such as this top) that I hide in my nest (my wardrobe). Strange, but what is a girl to do? 

It was quite a find from non other than Ebay, i put in a joke bid and it was accepted! Fantastic I know! I had a similar one that got stolen   i graciously gave to my mother. It was the whole 'she carried me in the womb for 9 months' line that she pulled!!

Oooh before I go I must reinforce to the world that apparently an auction i.e. ebay is a 'legally binding contract.' As a law student I OBVIOUSLY knew that.... :-S ....Sorry 'puppy20094eva'

Do you have any hilarious/slightly illegal ebay stories to tell....?

Top: Ebay

Shorts: Armani 

Shoes: Barrats

Bag: Primark

Embrace the braid

I braided my hair because I couldn't deal with the stress of trying to look like Kelly Rowland every morning. I unfortunately have too many books to read. I am embracing my Nefertiti, Lauryn Hill (insert afrocentric female here) thing...now if only I could sing....I could make a few buck singing outside a station on the Northern Line somewhere... 

 I also cannot seem to let go of my summer shorts or shoes despite the fact that I had the annual summer/winter wardrobe re-jig....It is truly a calamitous turn of events. I promise I will stop posting them erm sometime erm soon....OK late October MAX or as soon as frostbite becomes a real concern!

What can you not let go of....?

This is my Naomi

Here I am wishing someone would buy  me new summer shoes 

This is my 'i'm tired from the library face'

Jumper: I bought during the summer but have no clue where from
Shorts: Brick lane
Shoes: i think you already know
Bag: River Island
Bangles: Collected over the years, I actually found the cream one under my bed two nights ago

P.S if anybody wants to contact me I will be putting up an email address soon. Or if you just can't wait 'holla at me' in a comment...although hollering is for wolves....


Cheerio!
