Less hermione Granger more Emma Watson

Emma Watson



Okay so i was not crazy about the photo of Emma Watson on the cover of Elle, however I was very intrigued to find out more ! So I got the issue of Elle whilst away for a few days and I say outside the beach hut reading away.
My conclusion - Emma Watson looks fantastic in the photographs, she is interesting and the interview was pleasing to read.



I also then saw her on Jonathan Ross - looking very pretty and giving such a lovely little interview once again. As Wossy said, she was a lot less scary than Miley !



So i have to say, I was not a huge dedicated fan of the Harry potter books/films. I have read a few and have seen the films. But this girl, Emma Watson is going to go far (yes yes, I know, she has already gone far with being a wonderful actress and grown up in the Harry potter films). But I think she has a lot more waiting for us. She has something very intriguing, mysterious and the fact she is taking a big step into the university world means that she has a lot more to find out about her self personally and university sure does do that for everyone !




I am now a fan of this lovely girl and im quite excited to see what is to come! Good luck at university Emma Watson!

My weekend by the sea

I have been away for a few days at my parents holiday home. It was lovely and sunny and I was glad to see the seaside !

I love walking at night here, the sky looked so wondrous!


Sitting outside the beach hut in the sunshine on chairs with cushions I made !


Most of the days were like this - Sitting outside the beach hut, eating healthy lunch, reading old magazines and the new issue of Elle, which I actually really enjoyed.

I was hoping to get some running by the sea done, but a few days before I left, and luckily a day after the race for life, I fell on the sharp metal thing which the back door goes into and cut four of my toes.... really badly, they are starting to mend and I can actually walk now which is a bonus!


I REALLY want blonde hair BUT i dont think it will suit me :(


My dress is from White Stuff - Which I got on my trip to Leeds with my mum the other week. The cardi is from George !

Sipping earl grey tea

I have been making BBQ chicken

Reading vogue - Which my sister got, yay I didnt have to pay !
and sipping wine!

Earl grey tea in the evening is the best!

I had my hair cut the other week... here it is !

I also decided I will start posting more outfits.
The dress is from one of those random shops, i think its called "shout" - I saw it in the window and fell in love with it, so i braved myself and ran in for it !
The cardi Is from Asda
The belt is from GAP
The white pumps are Nike !! yes, nike. They are so comfy and cute.


I have now moved all my things from my flat in Manchester, handed on my keys and said goodbye to my room... The end of an era... or the start of A new chapter...

"HER PERSONAL STYLE IS ALSO A STYLE OF LIFE. BORN INTO A BOHEMIAN FAMILY,
HER FATHER WAS A TRAVELLER WHO WENT ONCE A YEAR TO AFRICA. SHE JOINED
HIM FOR THE FIRST TIME WHEN SHE WAS JUST 12 YEARS OLD. HER MEMORIES OF THE DETROIT BEACH AND GIBRALTAR ARE GROUND DEEP INTO HER SOUL AND REFLECTED THROUGHOUT HER EVERYDAY LIFE. ON THIS VERY TRIP, THEY MET A TRIBE OF MANOUCHES AND WERE INVITED TO SHARE A MEAL OF GRILLED FISH WHILE SINGING AND DANCING AROUND A HUMONGOUS FIRE ALL NIGHT LONG."

Their pretty dresses have made me fall in love with pink

I think for me - this summer - pink and white is going to be a major feature!

Just so that the girly side in me has a chance to shine.

Shopping baskets like these have always been the most useful for summer.

A sparkle and kiss of colour is shown so well in this delightful dress.

Finally to keep it simple like this is what I am craving today!

The fairy tale website, The dear running across your screen, the clothes of a bohemian girls dreams perhaps !
Dont forget the pixie dresses and whimsical photos. Which are so pleasing to the eye.
Or maybe just that it has a little bit of a Pocahontas vibe............
However, all in all its a wondrous mix of all these things !
Such a girly notion these clothes hold!

These stunning clothes are a leeetle on the expensive side - They can be found on ASOS however and here are some of the ones im thinking I should really save for ! (Do check the actual website though, its lovely)

Today: 17th June 2009

I woke up to a dull morning, began to get ready to head over to Manchester, and then - The rain came. So i have decided to stay in and try to get my room sorted and cleared out !

As much as I love hearing the rain hitting the window as I sip tea inside nice and warm, I do wish the sunshine would come back out to play!

So today I am sorting my room, as i mentioned before.

I want to get rid of lots of things and put things to sell as well as a trip to the charity shop!
The photo above shows my room, messy I know but you should have seen it before i moved all the suitcases!

I have almost everything back from my flat - here I am at home .. for the time being. Therefore a clear out, new start and maybe even a painting session when it is all done !

I hope to have it done today!... Ive said that a few times over the past week!

Above are some lovely finds from a recent charity shop trip with my grandma. I think they are just lovely




Last of all I am dreaming of Glastonbury and KICKING myself that I did NOT get myself a ticket this year. What a stupid mistake!
More photos from last year's Glastonbury can be found here

Im going to get back to my cup of tea and my room!
