Nothing Better Than A Bit Of Racism To Start Your Day

So this post was going to be a "Face Of The Night/OOTN", as I went to a friends' black and white themed party and thought, why not show you lovlies what I wore..... but then, on my journey home this morning, a lovely lady decided to spread her ignorance to the masses.... 

Cue story.... 

I was at the bus stop waiting for the bus as you do, and I get impatient when I'm at bus stops, and also I felt someone giving me dirty looks next to me, so I walked a little bit to see if the bus was coming round the corner; which it was...so I walked back... keep in mind I had been waiting at the stop for about 15 minutes... this lovely lady was in front of me, and she was with another girl, or woman, couldn't tell, who was sitting at the bus stop... bus comes, and I let the lady on because it's polite to let those who are waiting or already in front of you on first... and her child/daughter/lover/friend whatever is still sitting at the bus stop so I get on and she gets on after me.....

Lovely Lady: "DON'T YOU KNOW THERE'S A F*CKING QUEUE!!!" 
Me: "Yes, I was in the queue" 
Lovely Lady: "I've been waiting for 15 minutes for this f*cking bus and you just come out of nowhere and get on it!!" 
Me: "K, I'm really tired, I don't have time for this..." 
Lovely Lady: " Well I don't have time for you you F*CKING NEGRO!!!" 
Me: "Ooooooh nice bit of ignorance there, I hope you're proud of yourself, seriously, I'm really tired, and you clearly just want to make another dumb "racism on public transport" video so the daily mail can have another story so just stop here"
Lovely Lady: "OH JUST SHUT UP YOU DIRTY LITTLE B*TCH! I've got a pension plan and you just...." 

I kicked her in the face at that point... 

Ha! Just kidding! No I didn't get the last bit of whatever she was on about because she started harping on to her companion.... 

So yay... THANK YOU RANDOM LADY FOR YOUR WORDS OF WISDOM! ... I tried to take a photo of her but she was facing the other way.... it took so much out of me to hold my tongue and not go  crazy because this is the nonsense I can't condone..I just sat and stared into space... and when I got off the bus I told her to have a nice day. 



Whatever..... I'm not wishing bad on anyone but what goes around comes back around so good luck to her. It's just a shame that there are still ignorant and cruel people out there that can't accept people for who they are..... I pray it's not always going to be like this.

Melted Tights...Yay, or Go Away ?

Ohmygawshh I've done two posts this week!! It shows how much of a poo blogger I am when stuff like this excites me.....This is just a brief post to see what everyone's opinions are on the new "melted tights" that are hitting the web. It is a really unique design which I do admire (the unique/innovativeness, not the actual tights).. the tights look like something is melting down them. Here's a couple....


 Black on Black $55
 Glitter $50
 Neon Yellow $50
 Multi-tone Bubblegum $50
 Messy Black and White $55
 Neon Pink $50
 Silver "Limited Edition" $60

Neon Green $50


Now I'm not even going to lie, for me personally, these look like someone had a multi-coloured accident that just so happened to drip symmetrically down both legs....it's like what I would imagine you'd find in a baby Care Bear's nappy. I think I would prefer it if the melting started lower down, maybe thigh or knee level

What are your opinions? Would you try these out... actually, more importantly, would you pay $50 (£31.60) for these bad boys? That's what I want to know! I'm pretty sure other stores/brands are going to whip out their own versions of these, and to be honest I'm thinking they might be more "wearable". 

You know what, I'm going to attempt to make my own versions... or similar.. I've been meaning to customise some tights for a while, I think this has spurned me on... stay tuned :-) 

Also just wanted to share with whoever cares, I have finally completed both careers of Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit with 3 stars... WOOOP WOOOP!! 

It was "The Duel" on the racer career that dragged this game out for me... so frickin hard! 
If anyone else plays this, let me know how far you've got. Toodles x

Website Of The Week: Your Eyes Lie

Ello ello ello.... I haven't done a "website of the week"  in a while, most likely because I've spent most of my free time trying to complete both careers in Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit...(I am one assignment away from getting all stars on the entire game if anyone is wondering...no?.. well now you know)I'm telling you, that game is dangerously addictive...aaaanyways... I'm a tad partial to this site... Not going to lie though, it is pretty similar to Black Milk but me thinkies it's a little cheaper.... these are my favourites




Space Race Leggings £38



Digital Bohemian Maxi Skirt £40





Logogram Maxi Dress £26

DayAfter Scarf £30



LAK Oversize Tee £40


Feather Digital Print Shorts £35


Twin Tee £30


Pleated Moderated Trousers £35


Undeniable Digital Tee £31


I wouldn't say I'm a mahoosive fan of this site but they do have some nice bits and bobs... it's deffo worth a gander :-)

New Year, Same Me, More Posts....and Clothes

Hi girlies/guylies!! First off HAPPY NEW YEAR :-) ....A few days late but better now than never eh?...I'm going to keep this brief..not brief like my other posts where I say will be brief but somehow they end up longer than my dissertation... See, I've started waffling... No but I'm keeping this brief because I've had about 2 hours sleep therefore am ridonkulously tired...and when I'm tired I speak absolute nonsense..like seriously

Ok... to my point in 3....2.....1..... Well I don't think I had a point to this post, I had just realised that my last post was around a month ago and felt really bad... so I think this is more of a heads-up... I will have more time on my hands by God's grace to post a lot more frequently than I have been because my track record has been PANTS! Hopefully I'll post once a week/fortnightly at least..so yes, expect a major haul coming up soon...and a hair post I've been meaning to do for yonks... but for now, cake then bed :-)

Because I like pictures I may as well post a few images that made me smile this year (all 5 days of it)

Taraa for now

Liebster Awards + 64 Followers

It's my day off work... yaaayy... so I can finally do another post... about time yes I know, it's been about 3 weeks if not more.. sooooorrrryyyy... To make up for that here's a picture of a sloth giving a little girl a hug 

Anyways, I've been nominated for two Liebster awards which means a lot to me... I'd just like to thank my mum and dad for making me and providing me with food and shelter, my friends for being there for me and inspiring some of my posts, and I'd like to thank myself for working my frickin butt off to make money to buy this laptop that I use to blog... thank you Lis, thank you... 

ok seriously though I didn't want to make this post long (which it probably will be) so I'll cut to the chase.. it seems pretty straight forward but knowing me I'll probably fail somehow

Firstly I'd like to thank Mary- http://littlefeatherstyle.blogspot.co.uk/ and Rolana- http://www.ohsewfashion.com/ for their lovely nominations...THAAAANKSS GIRLIES (I don't know how to embed the address so if anyone does so it makes my post look nicer then let me know)

Post 11 random facts about yourself

11 Random facts about myself 

1. I'm scared of butterflies... I can't help it, especially the ones that look like they have eyes omgawsshhh I'm shuddering at the thought! 
2. I have a twin bro, he is lovely, he's called Brian (bonus fact: my older brother and sister are twins too... woop woop well done mum n pa!)
3. I eat about 6 bowls of cereal for breakfast... normally a rotation of bran flakes, coco pops, rice crispies, crunchy nut and cheerios.. but I had to cut it down because...well because I'm guessing that can't be good for you 
4. My camera's name is Xavier and my phone's name is Aubrey-Blake.. my laptop doesn't have a name though because I don't like him enough :-( I know... mean right, I might just name him now for hurting his feelings 
5. I hate whispering... like seriously hate it
6. A teacher once called me a cackling witch, that wasn't very nice.... but to be fair I was laughing at her, actually, no, no I wasn't! My friend threw a tennis ball at her head (by accident, he was aiming for his friend) and he looked so scared that he was going to get into trouble so I was laughing at that (and a bit at her)
7. My favourite item of clothing is my onesie(s), whoever invented them is a genius
8. I cried watching the chipmunks, despicable me, and happy feet (and I walked out 15 minutes after happy feet started because it upset me too much.... wow... that's embarrassing) . It's just so horrible how prejudice they were against him to begin with.. ughh let's not go down that lane right now.. dangerous territory
9. The witch (Ursula) in the little mermaid scares me, that cow gave me many a nightmare when I was younger! 
10. I have 7 piercings.. I want to get to 10 then I'll stop
11. I want 3 dogs and a rabbit when I get my own place

and now for me to answer specific questions... brace yourselves, there's gonna be 22 of them...

Firstly Mary's :-) 

1. What made you start blogging? Not to sound cheesy but I wanted to change someone's life. Not in a massive way but there's so much negativity in this world and so many people out there don't have someone they can talk to or any positivity around them so I kinda wanted to be that person. If someone could read a post and that makes them smile, or teaches them something new then I feel I've succeeded. I've seen some blogs and I literally feel inspired so I thought why not. Also, my lovely friend Sam has been blogging for a while so she said go for it. Which I did. Yay
2. What do you love most about blogging? I like the fact that I'm comfortable in this little environment I've made for myself. I like the blogging community as a whole, there's so many lovely people you can talk to around the world <3
3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would that be? America, not sure which state yet but I want to move there in a few years, maybe New York, or Atlanta
4. Favourite item in your wardrobe? My onesie, hands down 
5. Sweet or savoury? Savoury, and then sweet... you just can't have one without the other! 
6. What would your dream job be? A successful actress 
7. What is your favourite colour? I don't think I have one, for technology maybe red and black, for cars black, for hair ginger or auburn, for eyes green or hazel, or blue... so yeh, that didn't answer your question at all.. *thumbs up* 
8. Favourite fancy dress costume? I don't have one, but for my friend's birthday some years back you had to dress up as something with the first letter of your surname... I dressed up as an Orangutan's mother.... I could have just been an orangutan.. or an orange. Shows how clever I am ¬_¬ 
9. Which is your favourite season: spring, summer, autumn or winter? Spring probably, the sun can be very annoying for me during summer
10. Favourite band? I really don't have a constant one 
11. What is your star sign? Gemini :-) 

Now Rolana's :-) (some of the questions might be the same... such is life) 

1. What is your dream job? A successful actress, or Michael Fassbender's pillow
2. What is the reason behind your blog name? I like moustaches, and I like the words moustache and petite 
3. Going to an island, what are the 3 beauty products you would take? Whichever ones are edible.. that being said, if they're edible then they would be gone in about 5 minutes so I'd just say soap, moisturiser, and a sandwich (it can be used as a beauty product....somehow..if it's got cucumbers in it) 
4. Favourite way to spend your free time? Eating, or the cinema... whilst eating
5. If you had 3 wishes, what would they be? 1st one would be for an unlimited supply of wishes... BOOM GOTCHA!! The next 2 shouldn't really matter seeing as I now have an UNLIMITED supply! 
6. Favourite item of clothing in your wardrobe? My onesie








(it's a duck!!)


7. If you could travel anywhere, where would it be? Somewhere with a nice clean beach and cute dogs everywhere 
8. Favourite place to shop? Haha, EBAY!! 
9. Lipstick or lipgloss... and what's your favourite colour? Lipstick, I don't really like my lips shiny, I like dusty pink shades, or dark reds
10. Who is your favourite fashion designer? Whoever came up with the onesie, no joke.
11. What do you think of my blog? I'm very partial to it, that's why I'm following :-)... I think I wrote some sort of essay on how I loved your blog and I wanted to give you a virtual hug so that pretty much sums it up 

 I'm nominating......

My Questions: 
I'll try and not have all my questions about food... 

1. What's your favourite animal and why? 
2. What is your favourite beauty product?
3. Why did you start blogging 
4. What does your blog represent? (as in a make-up lovers dream? random ramblings etc)
5. Who do you gain inspiration from and for what? 
6. Desert island, you can take 3 beauty products, what are they? 
7. What is your pet peeve? and.. and what's your worst habit? Yes I know technically that's two questions but I cheated...sorry.... but answer them both 
8. What item that you own means the most to you and why? 
9. Do you have a special talent? 
10. What do you aspire to be? 
11. I think this is the most important question... what's your favourite food?  

and lastly I'd like to thank all my beautiful 64 followers for following my blog, it means a lot to me, and I know there are blogs with 1,000,000,000+ followers but it's not really about the number for me, it's about the fact that people are actually interested in what I have to say. So thank you... here's a picture of two adorable labrador puppies 




My pleasure :-)

Face Of The Day (FOTD)

I'm literally about to leave my house to go to work (by literally, I mean, after I've eaten/wasted a few more minutes doing nothing) and I felt really bad for not posting in a while... so here's a quick Face Of The Day because I haven't done one before and thought might as well

It's going to be brief because I don't wear a lot of make-up... and that's not necessarily because I don't need it.... it's more on the lines of PURE LAZINESS/BEING A CHEAPSKATE... I spend/ waste too much money on my mascara/lipstick habit that I don't really want to get into the whole foundation/primer/concealer business... I don't think my mind or bank balance can take it...and also if you are wondering about the state of my eyebrows... as my good friend Miley Cyrus said [they] "can't be tamed"! 























Face: Sleek blush in colour 749: Fenberry, Sleek blush limited edition 769:Honour
Eyes: Sleek face contour kit in 886:Dark (Yes you read that right, when I can't be bothered to look for my eyeshadow I use the lighter shimmery side of the palette..and that's pretty much all the time)
L'Oreal Paris Super Liner: Black Lacquer
L'Oreal Paris Volume Million Lashes Mascara: Extra Black 
Lips: Collection 2000 Cream Puff Moisturising Lip Cream in Fairy Cake

Kay, hope that didn't put you off your breakfast/lunch/brunch 
If anyone has any recommendations on a CHEAP, I repeat CHEAP concealer/primer whatever (not foundation, I'm not even gonna go there) then let me know....also, if you would like me to do more of these posts, which I doubt, then HOLLLLLAAAA! 

I'll be doing another post really soon because I've got my first Liebster award... YAAAYY!!... I'm actually really excited about it, I feel like I've won an Oscar or something! 

Toodles for now :-)
