Bowler Hats

Sometimes my fancy dress spills over to my regular wardrobe..and I kind of love that. I bought myself a red bowler hat for Halloween dressed as a clown and it was awesome :) Decided then that I would very much like a black bowler hat for those days when..why not?! You may have guessed from previous ramblings, I love fashion and playing around with different looks, so it was only a matter of time really ;)

So instead of buying clothes in my January sales shoppping, I bought a full price bowler hat..it may be silly but I bloody ♥ it!

Some rather pretty bowler hatted ladies and gents below...


My all time favourite bowler hat lady, the beautiful caketin :) No one rocks it like she does! Couldn't find the bowler hat pic I wanted, so here's her looking just as awesome in a top hat ;)

Fisheye

I was very lucky this Christmas and got two toy cameras to play with :) The first was a Fisheye and the second an action sampler. I've just finished the first film in my fisheye and I'm looking forward to seeing some probably, very random, results!

Thought I'd show you some awesome fisheye pics found whilst browsing the old internet, that I hope one day to acheive!

Rockabilly ♥

Rockabilly. Red lipstick, flicks of eyeliner and swing skirts..what's not to love? I have always loved the fifties and how the beautiful the clothes fit to a woman's curvy body. But with rockabilly, it has just that little more edge. Even better! Tattoos, pin ups and skulls give me that little extra thrill when looking at pictures :) I am particulary fond of the sailor themed dresses at the moment..anchors and navy blue ♥

So here are some beauties I have come across in searching for my perfect birthday dress....rockabilly of course ;)

♥

I very nearly bought this dress for my birthday, but sadly the ebay auction ended before I could purchase! Hoping they put some more on soon...

This is the birthday dress ♥ It's currently on it's way to me and I am very excited and hoping it fits! Can't wait to wear it...with my black biker boots of course :P

Festive Film Festival

One more week to go! Then I hit Christmas holidays and all kinds of fun festivities :) This weekend was my Festive Film Festival night, so Saturday I set about preparing.

I'd decided to have a go at making eggnog..I'd never made it before and the only time I'd tried anything like it was when I used to work in Starbucks and tasted the mix used for the lattes! But it was actually fairly easy and cheap, I used this recipe. The only problem I ran into was my lack of whisk but luckily Caketin brought me her electric one round so the day was saved :) The result? Delicious! I was pleasantly surprised and will hopefully make some for Christmas day...

We also had an abundance of mulled wine which is a bargainous £2 is Asda at the moment!

Pretty fairylights adorn everything in my flat right now...most of them stay up all year round as well!
I made cinnamon Christmas cupcakes which went down rather well despite them being a little flat! This picture is actually of my coffee and walnut ones made a couple of weeks ago..still my favourite :)
It was a really fun evening, the only problem being that we didn't actually get round to watching the film! But it was really good to catch up with everyone, make ridiculous jokes and generally ahve fun drinking and chatting :) I bloody love those people!

Last night I dug out some laptop fairy lights which my mum had given to me a couple of years ago..it's true. I am a little obsessed!

Hope you're feeling just as festive!
