blue eyebrows evri dai

hello friends, today I went radical and coloured my eyebrows blue because I had too many essays and a pile of art coursework which needed ignoring. The results weren't as radical as I was expecting due to the fact that I have dark hair but I have now realised that as soon as I get out of my super strict school that won't let me dye my hair, I am going all out on my eyebrows. Maybe I'll bleach them and go powder-pink; Ceaser-Flickerman style..
join my in the eyebrow revolution, it's weird and cool and new (to me) and you'll get really weird looks if you decide to go out in public with them. (some stranger called me 'smurf-brows' on the bus today.. I didn't find it very witty tbh)

Sharing with The Lisbon Girls

In France during Summer, we stayed with a family who had rented an old house in a small French village surrounded by hills. These are some photos I took of my bedroom, with only a blue tint added. They remind me a lot of The Lisbon Girls' bedrooms in The Virgin Suicides, especially with all the small religious items and the lace and bare walls. It was quite creepy sleeping there on the first night because I had just finished reading the book (of The Virgin Suicides) and if you have seen or read it, you know it doesn't end very happily. But it was really pretty in the mornings when the light shone through the lace round the bed and the whole room was a really bright white, so here are my photos:

☾ what the water gave me ☽

^Collected tumblr photos proving that turquoise water is the best thing ever. 

When I went to Greece last year the sea was just like that and it was perfect and summery.. I used to watch loads of underwater documentaries when I was little because I love the sea, and anything to do with it. If anyone's ever been to London Zoo you might know that the aquarium used to have this massive tank at the end of it with one big shark swimming round in it, which was always my favourite bit of the zoo but they moved it to another zoo and I can remember being really sad about it..
Also when I was probably about 6 I went to the New Jersey (USA) aquarium there which is the best thing ever because it has a tunnel that you can walk through and see the fish above you..There's also one in a Sea Life aquarium in Helsinki, Finland which I forced my family to take me to when we went on holiday there.

The Little Mermaid was always my favourite film when I was younger

Feeling Blue

My new summery outfit is based on my trip to Istanbul in Turkey last summer.  The denim top is from Topshop, the trousers are from a Turkish market and the shoes are a Liberty/Nike collaboration that I got from eBay. I love paisley in blue (it looks disgusting in brown/orange colours) and the geometric designs that are so popular in old Turkish design inspired me, as well as the Stella McCartney collection from last Spring/Summer.
