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 :)

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!

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

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 :)

YES! MAN

Oh I do love 'Yes Man!' :)

As you can probably tell I just watched it and for some strange reason it always seems to make me really really happy! :) I love the Polaroid picture of Jim and Zooey on the bike, with Zooey's bike hat! Its sooo cute :)

Maybe its the fact that Jim Carrey always seems to find a way to make me laugh and Zooey Deschanel's clothes are always so pretty!






Today I have already continued to work my way through the gigantic Cadburys Diary Milk bar that the parents bought me for Christmas, its always so appealing just laying there on the table, how can I resist! :)

I'm majorly happy because snow has been forecast for this week :D Even though that probably means we won't get any, it would be nice to get some nice white snow. America always seems to look so beautiful in the snow and it would be really nice for London to look the same :)

I went to lunch today at my Granddad's house, which was really nice. Although he wants me to help him cook and Cooking + Kirsty= Inedible (haha) My speciality's include jacket potato, pasta, beans on toast and apple crumble. I think I should begin to learn how to cook this year. yes that would be fun :)

Ever since my nanny passed away my grandad had gotten really into cooking and today he made us smoked salmon starter, chicken for main with vegetables (some of which he grows) and apple pie (apples from his garden) and it really was very very nice :)

Its back to college tomorrow. I must admit I am looking forward to going back in because it does get to that time of year where I get a little bit bored. At least at college there is always something to do. :)

I'm glad I've started to write on my blog again, I missed it and I've missed talking to all of you! :)
Thank you so much for all the lovely comments that people left me on my last post :)

Have a lovely and restful Sunday everybody!

Love,

and so 2010 begins :)

So its now 2010! :)

I can tell that this year is going to be one of the busiest and most important years so far! To start with I am having University interviews fairly soon to try and get into a paediatric nursing course :) I really really want to be a nurse and I'm just worried that my maths isn't good enough. But I'm going to try my very hardest when it comes to the entry exams, I really am :D

Then I have my A-Levels as well. So many important things to do :)

On other news my first proper outing in the year 2010 was to London Oxford Street with Miss Madison Giddings :) It was soooo much fun today and I finally bought a new calender (Harry Potter of course ;), 'Yes Man' (Only £3 :o) and 'The Hangover' (I just love that film sooooo much!) I just watched it in fact :)

Recently I was bought a dress for Christmas from my parents and I really like it :) I wore it the other night when I went to our local pub with some friends and it was soo comfy. I just love the flower print and the colours used! :)

I love the fact that 'Topshop' has a vintage section now! Although it is expensive and I can never afford anything in it, its sooo pretty to look at! Some of the scarfs and bags are amazing! Ohh to be rich... ;)

I'm going back to college on Monday, which I am looking forward to; but I can't help thinking just how quick this year is going to go! But one of my main resolutions is to achieve my goals for the future :) I'm going to try and have positive thinking all the way :D

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Love,
