August wishlist

My birthday is coming up soon so I'm going to compile a list of everything I'd wish for, real or not.

1.The weather has been real indecisive in the past few days to the point where I stick my hand out of my window to judge what to wear.
I've got s**tloads of clothes but don't have enough time in the mornings to match things and pick out an outfit so I just grab whatever and end up looking a mess. If only I had that outfit picker Cher from Clueless had. Hell I might even get some decent outfits since the 90s are back right?

2. I wish I could just randomly gain the ability to cook. It would not only save me hours of looking at food porn on tumblr but also actually let me taste it. I'm sick of looking at all the delish tumblr photos only to resort to butter on toast later. 

Just in case you've never experienced food porn then here are some examples:

WHO WANTS FOOD? I definitely do.

3. Urban Outfitters Dinosaur Kigu.

Who doesn't want to have need a dinosaur costume?

I can't really think of any more. I seem to always run out of ideas after listing 3 items/ideas.

Tbh, birthdays have never been amazingly important to me but compiling lists are always FUN!(That just made sound like some crazy super organised person, which I am sadly not.)

Favourite movies

Third post in three consecutive days, go me!

Since I'm on holiday from work and its too hot to be going out everyday, I've been having a movie marathon in the comforts of my own living room...with lots of food. It's bad I know.

I've always found it hard to say what my favourite film is because there's so many good films out there so I've put together a list of my current top 3.

So in no particular order, here goes:

1.Mean Girls

This has been one of my favourite films since forever. A lot of people act really shocked when I tell them but seriously, it's such a funny, quotable film. Not only is the screenplay really good, the cast are amazing too. I just love this film to pieces and to top off how sad I am, I know 99% of the lines. It gets really annoying if you watch the film with me haha.

2.Fight Club

I know this is so drastic from the first one but this is a really thought provoking film. It looks into the problems we have in society and confronts them in an interesting manner. I've yet to read the book but I definitely will.

3.Wall.E

I only watched this for the first time last week. However, since then I've re-watched a couple more times because with Pixar films, you've gotta see it a few times to notice the Easter eggs or the tiny background jokes. Again, it's a thought provoking film but done very subtly obviously due to the younger target audience but just serious enough to get the point across and be non condescending to older audiences. The relationship between Wall-E and EVE is beautiful despite the lack of communication. So much love for this film.

TkMaxx Haul!

I went shopping with my mum yesterday and she kindly offered to buy me some essentials for winter.

I know I've only posted up 3 item so I think I can class it as a small haul, hoho.

In line with my new shopping resolution, I only chose what I felt I really needed. I had to throw away two pairs of shoes recently because I've been walking a lot recently. A LOT. So, I picked out some shoes that are more comfortable and durable than what I would usually pick.
 This one is SUPER comfortable and even thought it looks slightly goofy, at least my feet will be warm!

This pair is pretty versatile and is going to be replacing my old brown pair which looks really similar. Lace up boots are such good shoes all year round and I just love them!


And lastly, the pair of skinny, high waisted jeans which I can't be bothered to model at the moment(I know I'm lazy!), but are really slimming because of the indigo colour.



I know this sounds crazy because it's pretty much middle of summer still for most places but I 
 am ready for autumn!Let's hope its a good one!

Future Primark hitlist! +life shizz!

Source: Tumblr
So, I went shopping with my mum, so I'm technically not breaking the shopping ban I set myself since my mum paid(it was all for things I needed, I promise!). We went past a Primark today and since the Easy jean dupe it has looked alright I thought I'd try some on. They fit/looked weird on me so I gave them a pass. Sadly, we didn't stay too long in there because we had more stuff that we needed to buy.


Not wanting to pass up on some bargains, I decided to have a look at the Autumn/Winter stuff that Primark is going to bring out and it really does not disappoint and I know that once my shopping ban wears off, I'm popping in to grab these beauties!

I think we can all agree that this season's Primark clothing is getting even better and harder to resist to buy. However, the clothes sometimes looks better on photos because with some items, you can't look closely because the material can be incredibly thin but that's only some.

Well, I'm looking forward to bagging these soon! And of course looking forward to a stylish, grungy winter yay!

On a side note, to the store assistant who was incredibly rude to me in the phone store, I hope you learn to be a better person soon because being a miserable bitch isn't benefiting anyone :)


Edit: Just remembered I bought these a few days ago....Oops

I promised myself that I'd start working out soon so these are kind of an incentive I guess :B
