Happy Birthday Madison! :)

Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday dear Madison, Happy Birthday to you! :)I thought I would write a blog post today because it is my best friend Madison's birthday! :) She has just turned 18 and we are all going round her house later for a birthday treat :)

It's her party on Friday and everyone has to go dressed up as something to do with the letter 'M' and I'm going as Maid Marion :) I can't wait!

I've known Madzy since I started Sixth Form College and she is one of my best friends. We always have such a laugh together and our regular trips to London never get any where near boring, they are always soo much fun!

I hope she has a lovely 18th Birthday, Party and Year :)

Love,

Peggy Sue Got Married :)

I would just like to thank everyone for the lovely comments that they write on my blog. I love reading them, its lovely to see that people enjoy reading my blog :)

Today I have got the day off of college, so I thought I would take the time to have a nice relaxing day. I'm going to practice for my university interview later as well.
On Friday I went to my friend Josh's 18th and it was really good, except for the fact that we had to wait 1 hour for our cab! However, the actual party was brilliant! and I think he had a good birthday :)



(Please don't ask me what we are doing here :s haha)


***
At the moment I'm watching one of my favourite films, 'Peggy Sue Got Married'. I don't know if anyone else has watched it but it really is funny. It's about a woman who is getting a divorce from her high-school sweetheart and she goes to her school Reunion with her daughter. Whilst she is there she faints. When she wakes up again she has travelled back in time to when she was a teenager in the 1960s. She sees all her friends again and tries to resolve the troubles that she has acquired in the future; mainly between her and Charlie. She becomes really good friends with Richard who tries to send her back to the 1980s, but there are certain things that get in the way. In the end she wakes up in hospital where Charlie is sitting by her side. Whilst she has been to the 1960s, she has changed an aspect of her past so that her marriage has the chance to be resolved.

If you like light-hearted comedy's, which has really lovely clothes in it, I would recommend watching it :) It is much better than I have described :D

Some of the dresses that Peggy and her friends wear are soooooo lovely! The colours are really pretty! :)

Another film that I love is 'Mermaids' with Cher, Winona Rider and Christina Ricci in it. It is quite an old film but again the early 1960s style clothes are beautiful. I'll write about this film in another post, I think :)
I hope every ones week is going well :)

LOVE LOVE LOVE :)

Topshop makes me smile! :)

I love the January sales so much :)

I was just browsing through the rails and I saw such a nice skirt! It was meant to be £35 and it was reduced to £20. When I tried it on I wasn't too sure but now I really really love it!

I think it will be being worn tonight even though its cold, who cares ay? :D


I'm off to Romford in a minute actually because I need to go and get my friends birthday presents. I'm going to resist from buying anything else, although it will be very difficult!



Happy Friday everyone :)



Love,

SNOW! :)

Woooo! It snowed! :)

I'm such a child when it comes to snow, but I do love it! :)

For England we actually seemed to get quite a bit, but compared to other countries it really wasn't much at all.

It was such a good day yesterday, we all went into college and I just had to take lots of pictures to show you! :)

Being England and not coping with the snow very well, we were all sent home early yesterday meaning that I could go to the Harvester for a meal with some of my friends. On the way back I kind of started a snow ball fight :s. It was mainly the girls being attacked by snow via the boys, but it was still really funny! :)





College was on again today but we got sent home early again, so I thought it would be the perfect chance to write a blog entry :)

I had a driving lesson today and I was a bit nervous because I've only driven in the snow once and it wasn't in as much ice. However, I felt it went quite well and we mainly went down the side roads so it was a good experience to have done. I did actually really enjoy it! :)


I haven't got to go into college tomorrow because I can't start my work experience yet, so I think I'll do some work and then I'm going to get a friend's birthday presents :) Hopefully if the snow isn't too bad I'll be able to go to my friend Josh's 18th birthday tomorrow night as well :)

I hope everyone's week has been good so far!


Love,

Costume party :)

Its only about 2 weeks until my friends birthday party and I can't wait! She's turning 18 and is having a costume party :) Everyone has to go dressed as a character beginning with the letter 'M' and I'm going as Maid Marian from Robin Hood :D One of my friends is going as a tube of mustard! (haha) I can't wait to see what he looks like :)
The costume came from http://www.bestpricefancydress.co.uk/ :) It really is a great website for fancy dress costumes. If your looking for one check it out :)

I'm wearing pink boots with it and am going to edit the outfit slightly if I can. But I don't want to ruin it. I'll see how it turns out... :)

I can't wait now and I will be putting lots of pictures on here so you can see what everyone went as and how creative they all were :)



Snow is meant to set in soon, I hope it does. I love going over the park with my friends and having snow ball fights; although it tends to be the boys who throw them and all of us girls just end up running away! But its still a laugh!

Hope everyone has a nice week :D

Love,

Amanda's picture :)

I thought I would go totally crazy and write two blogs today :)

Some time ago I entered a blog giveaway on one of my favourite blogs http://amandaatkins.blogspot.com/. This blog belongs to a lovely girl called Amanda and she is such a great artist. I love her work! :). She was offering a print of one of her pictures and I was so happy when she revealed that I had won the picture.


When I received the picture I knew straight away where I was going to put it. I've finally got round to taking some pictures of the wonderful piece of work that Amanda has created. I hope she doesn't mind me taking a picture of it :)

Thank you so much Amanda! :D


If you have not been on her blog before, I would definitely recommend that you check it out. Her blogs are always so interesting :)
