Foods- takeaways, marzipanimals and cake wrecks


i don't cook mainly due to laziness and awful eating habits so i'm always on the look out for cheap healthy eats! Kokoro just opened in kingston, i got salmon teriyaki and they do a wicked vegetarian yaki soba! i think for the whole meal i paid something like £3.50! wowzers!
i also like the sushi takeaway Ohaio in new malden i used to order from them a lot before i moved, they were a little more pricey (normaly a min of £10-£15) but you definitely got your money's worth


here is proof of my horrendous cooking skills. it was my boyfriend's 21st last week and i thought i would bake him some birthday cuppycakes......but er this is the result

i iced them to look like toads but that was even worse. by morning the icing had melted off (don't ask how) not cool

finally check out these guys! cute right! marzipan animals from patisserie valerie. i can't bring myself to eat them on account of their sweet little faces, no pun intended, so they are currently residing in my fridge until moments of desperation

I WANT MY MTV!

Hair cuts, Freakouts and Androgyny part deux- Boy Style





So i thought i would have a go playing around with a new look. does boy style suit me? i am very girly so i don't think this will be a regular thing for me

Holla if you think i'd make a cute guy!
lol

On Hair cuts, freakouts and Androgyny



ok due to a decade of colouring and abusing my hair i have officially fucked it up so much i had to have it all cut off. we all knew this day would come eventually. but hey what do you think? is this a good look for me? can i work androgyny?


reminds me a bit of Tank Girl....which is cool i guess

Yoko Oginome, Gaga before Gaga


i am loving Yoko Oginome right now. remind you of a certain Lady Gaga?
i dont know about you but i will be trying some looks inspired by this video

Brace yourself for Suspenders!

possibly one of my favourite accessories yet so under used! forget the realms of old men in ill fitting trousers and 1920s pornography (i say!) and think more This is England. there is something so cool about suspenders
what do you think?




Urkel Knows what i'm talking about!

Geek Chic and Fashion Week


ok so i know this was ages ago but i didn't get a chance to blog about it so i'm putting a few pics up now. i went to LFW's Fashion Weekend to go hunting for some designer discounts. got some great stuff though was a little disappointed with the goodie bag (tampons and coffee? really guys?). above are my two favourite looks from the catwalk show. i am a BIG fan of the geek chic look.
Me and Mama! she is my fashion partner in crime. i look albino due to my bleached eyebrows
