22

It's my 22nd Birthday on Monday and high time I made a wish list of the gifts i'd love to be unwrapping! I'm celebrating truly entering the grown up years with a trip to London, starting off with a trip to Meat Liquor followed by drinks in Shoreditch on Sunday before stopping over, then spending the day partying at Notting Hill Carnival and hoping to get a spot on the guest list for the Red Bull party before heading off to see one of my favourite DJs Oneman at a Deviation night. Still need to find the perfect birthday dress! The next day is my besties Rachael's birthday when we'll be easing the hangovers with g&t's and dinner from the yummiest restaurant in town back at home. Bank holiday is always great with a double birthday in the mix!

Wish List; Pretty Underwear (Topshop), Opening Ceremony 10th Anniversary Book, Zubrowka Vodka, Chunky Jewels (Mawi), the Perfect Party Boots (ASOS), iPod....I lost my iPhone and i'm dreading the commute to my work placement without any music!.... Gold Casio, Beaded Clutch (ASOS), Ving Boots (Jeffrey Campbell), Molecule 03 (Liberty), Boo Boo Zap (Benefit) ..because any Benefit is great and the packaging of their skincare range is gorgeous, Free Run Sole Trainers (Nike)...I definitely can't pull off the streetwear look but fierce looking feet might just help me to dedicate myself to the gym a little more!

OLYMPIA

I am completely hooked on The Olympics, from the awe inspiring cauldron, to the sprinter shorts which have filled high street stores, from the high fashion hints to sports and onto the faded vintage sweats, the nail art (patriotic albeit tacky) to the unstoppable Usain Bolt...and less I forget the rumoured Spice Girls performance at the Closing Ceremony on Sunday. And haven't Team GB done us all proud. 

HI BROW

If you know me then it will come as no surprise that I am obsessive over eyebrows. After sporting over plucked apostrophe style eyebrows during my school uniformed years I began to lust over the full strong womanly brows. Eyebrows truly change a face and the coming season sees the brow taking centre stage. A certain sense of dystopian surrealism has been cast over the fashion and beauty worlds and I am in love with other worldly brow embellishments. I'll be experimenting with coloured make up pencils and glitter gels for evenings, the statement lip always was impractical for drinks anyway!
