Bonfire Night

 Last night was Bonfire Night! Scott and myself went to our local firework display, and had a monster of a bonfire at home.



 This was two months worth of scrap furniture from the shop, along with many local people's garden waste. It was so lovely to watch it all crackle and burn to nothing, and it kept us nice and toasty while we watched too.

I like this shot of my mum and Grandad.

Day Trip to Anglesey, Beach and Lunch

Today Scott and I travelled to Anglesey to pick up a shed we bought from EBay for Lola.

After meeting Phil and his wife we had a cup of tea and a mince pie and off we went to the beach.
There were tons of sea snail shells, mussels and shells everywhere, so I had fun photographing a couple.
 
Scott has a 'thing' for boats.
Finally we stopped at Pen Y Bryn near Colwyn Bay for a very tasty lunch. Meat platter starter for two, a bowl of chunky chips, mixed buttered vegetables and pesto dressed garden salad. So good! And such a lovely day.
Can't wait for our Bonfire tonight :).

Kate Winslet & Style

 I was reading Nylon magazine last night and they had done this feature about her style, so I had to share it! I LOVE the backpack, jumper and hair dye, not too keen on the cargo pants though, but overall her style is just so cool.

 This is one of my all time favourite films!  Kate Winslet is my favourite actress, but I am particularly fond of her character in Eternal Sunshine. I've always had a soft spot for her after Titanic (another favourite film) since I was younger. Everyone really needs to watch this film, especially if your the arty weird creative type, (which I hope I am?!)


Katy Perry Concert #3

 Monday night I went to see Katy Perry.... again!!!!! As expected she was wonderful, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.  Before the concert my parents and I went for THE nicest steak I have ever eaten at Gaucho's. It was so so good! Rare Fillet as always, with salad and chips, followed by chocolate truffles and desert wine, yummy.
  I now have a Katy Perry ring, poster and concert T-shirt, which is necessary after the amount of times I’ve been. Sadly this is now the final time, at least for this album anyway!
 Also, I am now the proud owner of a proper charm bracelet. I'm not really a Pandora girl, and this one is much more personal. It was my grandma's and the chain was made from my Great Grandfather's watch chain, so it's pretty special. I personally like the pig.

New Shoes!

 The most beautiful new shoes! I bought these yesterday from the Trafford Centre, in ‘Schuh’ to be precise.
I'm usually a red shoe kinda girl, but after trying on both the red and green countless times and aggravating the staff, I finally decided on the green ones! But the red ones are equally gorgeous.
They remind me of Dorothy's shoes from The Wizard of Oz. And they were only £65!
I wore them last night to a Halloween party and had lots of compliments, so well done shoes!

Earrings, Kisses and Scott

 My earring collection is nicely expanding. The Skelton’s are glow in the dark for Halloween!

Mum bought these Hershey's kisses from Selfridges in the Trafford centre yesterday. Yummy.  

Polaroid picture of Scott, Molly, Ella ( the choccy labrador's) and Harrison the cat.

Hair Dye

Today's impulsive decision.....

Dying two streaks of my hair blue and pink. I did however opt for semi-permanent
but I actually really like it so I may go all out permanent.
Colours - Flamingo Pink, and Capri Blue from Crazy Colour.
 I only chose two small sections, just in case.....

The bottle says wear gloves - In hindsight I would wear gloves.
 Though I do like the effect the ink has left J
The outcome - Pink = Works pretty well I think.
   Blue - Not so good! It dosnt take as well to my hair.
