Nice is nice

I am back, after 4 gorgeous days of sun, tomatoes and baguettes. I took lots of pictures and have tryed to pick the best, but that failed; so now I'm going to post them all with a commentary. Warning- There are a lot of pointless pictures here that have nothing to do with fashion.

The market next to our hotel.

We went on this train around all the sights in Nice, eventually it took us to this castle which was on a hill and gave us a magnificant view of the city.

A birds view of Nice, no wonder there are so many pigeons.

On the second day we went to the beautiful town of Antibes, which had an antique market going on it was adorable.

My name written in sand, complete with a French pigeon.

On the way back from Antibes there was little room on the train, so I sat in a luggage space.

On the third day we visited Monaco, this picture is of the Casino Monte-Carlo.

We visited an aquarium and so I took some pictures of fish.

French Teapots

I decided to get creative and fill the boring spaces along side my posts; so I drew some rather rubbish but interesting teapots. There is more to come when I can find time to scan them.Also on a creative note I have become addicted to polyvore and am posting another collage today, I promise no more for a while because they are getting a bit boring (I don't own the actual clothes but I own lookalikes). Tomorrow at the insane time of 4 O clock I am of to the airport, to go to France yet again- I will take loads of pictures. I'm going to Nice and I'm hoping the weather will be hot and sunny, its only for 4 days. Hopefully when I come back I will have a nice tan and won't be burnt. X

Pretty pastels

I have just returned from an exciting day at Alton Towers. My time was spent 6/10 queuing, 1/10 scaring little kids, 2/10 screaming and 1/10 eating. All the rides were amazing but overal my favourite ride had to be either the squirrel nut ride or thirteen. Anyway on another topic, I am currently loving the pastel and floral trends going around, so decided to make a kind of collage of it all. X

Big Beetle, you are beautiful

Today I went on yet another epic walk in the gorgeous sunshine, with my darling friend Sophie. We took a few pictures and I will apologize now for my ever so boring outfit because I have no clothes, I'm taking a lot to France on Sunday so it's all packed. The walk included a delicious Frappuchino, a dog the size of a bench and lots of trees... X



Ohh, I almost forgot I would like thank Cat the destroyer from Imaginary Peaches for the mention on her blog :)

Lampshade skirts

This is from the Moschino fall 2010 collection and I saw it and thought just how amazing it was. Most of the other clothes in the collection are dark but then you see this skirt, which looks like it has been made out of a lampshade but I still find gorgeous. Yes, I do have very peculiar taste; anyway it also has the big reveal trend included in it without it looking to slutty, which I one day want to attempt, even though I probably look quite stupid. If anyone knows where I can buy a huge, cheap lampshade from, please tell me. X

Daffodils

Walked the Chester wall today and also did a bit of window shopping. Now I really want to go to Zara because I fell in love with their military style clothes, however I won't as if I do go I will spend all my money which I am saving for yet another trip to France. Don't worry England I won't desert you. However it seems I am obsessed with that country, on other obsessive notes I am also obsessed with daffodils- you may have guessed! At the moment I feel like painting a teapot with a union-jack, so I'm off in search of paints. X

Happy Easter

Spent the morning staring at a life-sized cross covered in daffodils at church and all I could think about was taking a picture of it. It inspired me to take some pictures in my recently covered in daffodils, garden. I always seem to feel awkard when people take pictures of me when I'm stood there doing nothing so I'm actually on an egg hunt. An interesting fact- they sell approximatly 200 million caburys creme eggs a year. I am hiding most of my face in all of them because of my sunburn and the fact I blink in nearly every photo.
