Qwerty

Nothing like one asshole to put you in a bad mood for the day by being unnecessarily unfriendly. But nevermind, I just had some lovely Thai Red Curry, I have Hula Hoops and a Wispa in my bag, and I just see that someone has uploaded Teen Mom series 2. Life ain't so bad afterall!

Angus & Julia Stone

I recently read about Australian brother and sister duo Angus and Julia Stone as they've been nominated for the ARIA Album of the Year Award for their new album 'Down the Way'. Of course, as they're Australian, and Angus is quite the dreamboat (he has a feather in his hair!), I had to go and immediately listen to them and I'm quite impressed. Particularly like the first song on the album, 'Hold on' and the video is pretty damn beautiful too. The awards take place on November 7th.

Recent purchases

Despite the fact I still don't have a job (eeeeeek!) I have bought a few things here and there over the last few weeks, including on my trip to New York. Apologies for crappily taken photos!

Floral shorts, these babies were only $5.99. Bargain! They're a bit grannyesque but I love them

Floral dress(can you see a theme here??), this was only $7.99 in Value Village, the epicentre of junk! It's a bit long so I'll have to take it up but I think it'll be warm for Fall/Winter. Yes, I said Fall. Wooo!



60's Paisley dress, only $10!



Floral strappy dress, only $13.99 in New York in some No Name type shop! Bargain!



And finally, a ram/deer/moose/elk skull ring complete with awesome antlers from Topshop, cost $28 but it was worth it!!

A good way to be

God, I want everything that Holly Fulton showed at London Fashion Week, all printed dresses and geometric necklaces. But I particularly want the 2 clutches below, my life will be sad without them.

Want want want!

I have plenty to blog about what with going to New York for the weekend, but with Topshop Unique AW 2010 now being on the website, all I can think about is the following items which I really want.

Antler headband £80


Racoon print dress £80


I guess if I want to purchase either, top of my want list is a job. Sigh

I had a dream...of leather shorts?

When I'm not having whacky dreams or dreaming or drinking coffee, I sometimes dream about clothes and the other night I had a great dream about an amazing pair of leather shorts which surprisingly came from Marks and Spencer of all places! The shorts were a beautiful buttery tan colour and perfectly high waisted, although they did have a weird zip off part at the back. It being a dream though, I'm sure this can be attributed to the whacky part of dreams and not an actual feature I would want!

I've spent a lot of time thinking about leather shorts recently, I was watching a pair on Ebay but couldn't bring myself to bid when they rose to 60 euro. Sad face. It also breaks my heart to think that Penneys will probably make their own version which no doubt will adorn the asses of every skanger in Dublin, accompanied by neon runners and hoodies. Shudder.

I'd like nothing more this winter than to dress in a Chloe combination of the last few seasons (how uncool of me), complete with a camel coloured cape, leather shorts, a similar paletted blouse and big flouncy hair.

I saw a Chloe-esque cape in Zara last winter but didn't buy it as I knew I'd never wear it. Fingers crossed I see some cheap but nice leather shorts soon.
