Cupid?


Where is that blonde curly haired kid in a diaper with angel wings?...they call him #cupid??
I'm sure he's sitting up there laughing at me!

Okay I just like the image here. But I guess the whole concept makes sense.

Sisters Wedding


My lack of update was due to my sisters wedding on Sunday. As a bridesmaid I've been running around doing little things and have been very busy.

This is a photo of my Mummy, Daddy, Little brother and Me just before my sister (the bride) arrived.

My Disney Couture Snow White Black Apple Ring :)



This is another ring that I purchased few weeks ago :) I LOVE!!! It's so cute and sparkly!!!

Okay so, this is the Poison Apple from Snow White as part of the Disney Couture collection. It has Black Swarovski Crystals covered on the top of the silver plated ring with a stalk and a green leaf :)

This ring is size 8. Yes 8, that is because I wanted it on my middle finger and not my other one...That's Just Me.

I got it from House of Fraser whilst on a shopping spree, it was just under £40 :) Happy little girl dreaming in Disney.

'UP' in reality...




This is the house from the Pixar animation Up. It isn't an exact replica as it's just the empty shell otherwise it wouldn't really happen...right?...Anyway It was lifed by 300 helium balloons and was done in Los Angeles.

I really like the animation it was definitely funny and I enjoyed it, however I thought that the adverts and promotion pieces just showed all the funny parts and that there wasn't more to expect from it....either way I got it on DVD :D

I might just be a little "clingy" .

With me it's either clingy or nothing...So which one is it?

She Sell Sea Shells on the Sea Shore...


These are the shells I got when I was young. They are from my Daddy's friend, Dominic whom is from Canada and whilst he was back there visiting he went diving and got me these...I loved them, still do...I still like to put them against my ear listening to the 'ocean'...I used to believe that it was...gullible me. They still remain sitting on the shelf in my house :D
Happy little girl :D
She did what she wanted. She listened to few. She walked to the beat of her own wild drum. She was beautiful. Passionate. She danced carelessly. She laughed loudly. She loved genuinely. She was irrational, moonstruck, shameless, endearing. She was Existing. Untamed. Painfully divine. Uniquely exceptional. Potentially dangerous. And extremely desired.

Honey packaging for Klein Constantia Farm


The packaging is so cute and resembles the production of honey - the box has embossed detailing of the wood and nails of a bee hive box.
The box of honey also contains small diecut bees detailed with gold foiling.

The honey brand crest is also foiled in gold on the front under the diecut slit, with a honey on the corner welcomeing you in to their honey.

Design by the team At Pace.

My Strawberry Ring




Since I was young I've always had a love for strawberries. This was a must purchase :D
It's made of clear resin with gold stem detailing and diamonté 'pips'.

I'm greedy so I'm going to keep where I got this from to myself :D

Oh My purple leopard print nails on clear polish...but chipping away slowly :(

Why do you always disappoint me?

It's like I'm always right to expect a disappointment to follow through...

Fingerprint building?


This isn't an existing building...if it was I think the structure would be quite...well...interesting lets say.

It is an amazing image.

But anyway its a poster design for the D-Station player thing...not sure what it is LOL

Nordstorm Hosiery




I really like the way they played with the type and the idendity of each product.
The way the H has turned into the type of stockings and the line in the type for seam in the design of tights. Cleverly thought.

Created by the design studio Turnstlye.

Your motive?

I might not question your motives to your face but I do at heart.

Siberian Tiger Campaign - Interactive T-Shirt Print

This is amazing. It kinda works too. wonder how they got the program to work...



Get shot while in the fitting room! Try on a Shirt with a Tiger print and when you look into the mirror AR technology simulates a realistic shot in your chest. Aim of that campaign is to save the Tigers!

This is pretty amazing work by Leo Burnett Moscow.

Cosmetic brushes made from Traditional Japanese calligraphy brush craft



Kumano Fude, the manufacturer of the Japanese traditional calligraphy brush has collaborated with an American cosmetic company Max Factor to produce a series of cosmetic brushes.

These brushes will be made with Kumano Fude technique of the traditional brush crafting of calligraphy brushes that use fibres that are 100% natural.

I can only imagine the brushes being extra expensive :S I mean normal MAC brushes are just pushing it but these...hmm I guess only people who have this money and are collectors will buy them.

Guilt

I had this sort of rush of guilt the other day. I normally get these rush of guilt's when I let me friends down when we plan to meet up or when I say no to things or when I don't talk or contact my friends for a while.

But this rush of guilt was slightly different, this person was to me on a different level to my friends and I guess it affected the way that I acted.
I felt that I was being really selfish because I didn't give anytime to consider this persons feeling when they were obviously trying to tell me something.
I mean looking back there were occasions where they told me about things happening in their life and I just 'ignored' it and didn't comfort them in any way. Or in the way that they have been because I've been stressing with stupid uni work!.

I don't like to ask questions and pry into peoples "situations, problems, issues..." this is me.

I'm quiet, cold, blunt, selfish and keep myself to myself...This is who I am, I guess.

I'm sorry for not caring and for making you feel like you trusted and opened up to the wrong person, I was obviously not considerate of your feelings.

I'm going to try and learn to be more caring of your feelings however it's going to be a hard and a slow process to let my guard down, especially from what I've learnt in the many years.

I hope you accept my apology.

Starbucks' New brand design


Starbucks is one of the most global recognised coffee shops. The siren in the logo has developed during the many years and has once again developed to be a more simplistic design, keeping it still as recognisable as the iconic design that it is.

"The work was done by the internal creative department here at Starbucks in partnership with Lippincott. The goal was not only to refresh the mark but to free the Siren from the ring, allowing her to be treated more artistically."

My Dymo LetraTag


I bought this a while ago and I'm obsessed with it...in a way where I am constantly labelling things...Like I have these bill folders and I labelled them "Gas", "Electricity", "Telephone"...

I'm a neat freak...I think I may have OCD :S But it's not that bad..I don't think anyways.

But Back to the Dymo LetraTag...

I got it from the Ryman stationary store.
The LetraTag Machine is around £25.
The sticker tape thing is around £5.

The machine is pretty amazing as it could print on to a variety of coloured labels plus features like
Text Size, Style: underlining, bolding, shadow...and Border
It is also possible to insert numbers, Symbols, a second line and the date. You can also set the language, set the contrast.

I went through all the symbols that were available and I decided to see how the pig and apple turns out when printed.... :D

It also has a memory circuit where you can save the inputted text.

The only thing that I dislike about it is the type face, it can't be changed...but with everything else it's better than nothing right?

I am a quiet person...

I am a quiet person, but that doesn't mean that I don't have an opinion or a voice, I just don't want to share it with you.

Or depending on who you are, I just don't trust you enough to let you into my mind. Give me some time. This is just me being me.

Come In/Go Away Ambigram Coir Doormat



I really like the idea that something can be read both ways. My friend has a tattoo with this idea that reads "Trust" and "Faith".

This is a doormat saying "Come In" and "Go Away".

Trip to Borough market


On a Friday me and a few class mates went to Borough market to waste a bit of time.

We walked around deciding what to eat. I didn't manage to take a picture but I ate a Falafel...it was yummy...it you're a person who like hummus.

Another thing that I ate was this "ferme des peupliers, Oueufs au lait Caramel" It was...the texture was like the egg parts of an tart...it didn't taste too eggish, it wasmn't as sweet as I expected it to be because of the caramel...but it was milky and creamy. The guys kept saying that it looked like baby food...well maybe a little. It might have been the pot that it is in...I think it looks cute so I decided to take it home with me :D

It contains Whole Milk, Skimmed Milk, Eggs, Caramel, sugar, Skimmed milk powder and Vanilla natural aroma.

We also went to the pub to drink :D What a great day!! It was sunny but Cold!

How was your pancakes? Mine were Sexual!

Ingredients:
1 Cup Plain Flour

I don't remember what this was for, but I really like it.

Each line is basically text and it's falling?

My house is now the Post Office!

For some reason my house has become a Post Office for my friends...and family.

My post...majority of the time comes before 12pm. And I know that I am usually still getting ready to leave the house this time (unless I go uni early in the morning) or that one of my sisters are at home, or my neighbour can sign for them, but still I don't need my house to be receiving parcels every other day of the week!!! Unless half of the things coming through belongs to me but they don't!!!

"Short Shorts, On Sale, Superette"

There is a Superette store in London, near Shoreditch High Street. It's a brand in New Zealand.

This is pretty clever and works in a way...excuse for looking at legs/bums :D
