There's so many groovy things to do

All you Americans will probably faint when I tell you that the British aren't really 'into' Halloween. I mean we have all that orange and purple plastic filling up our supermarkets as soon as September is even on the horizon and most young children do go out trick-or-treating, but you don't get the same buzz as the USA does, and in my case, the area I live in makes little-to-no effort to give out sweets on the 31st.
But the best thing about it is the costumes so here are some characters I am considering dressing up as for Halloween:

♡ DARIA MORGANDORFFER ♡

(see middle) If you aren't already aware of this amazing 90s high school cartoon made by MTV, you won't know how brilliant Daria is, but Daria Morgandorffer is hilarious and me and my friend Rachel are thinking of being Daria and Jane for Halloween seeing as they are such a fabulous duo.

♡ WEDNESDAY ADDAMS ♡

The coolest of the cool, Wednesday has always been my favourite film character ever since I saw the Addams Family film when I was little. Alexa Chung's book: It, devotes a page to her whole look and she's fabulous so I will for sure dress up as Wednesday this Halloween.












                 

♡ DAPHNE BLAKE ♡

The cartoon version, obviously. Daphne Blake from Scooby Doo will always be in my mind when I think about a Halloween costume. There are so many groovy things to do <3 <3 <3

♡ MOONRISE KINGDOM ♡

THE cutest Wes Anderson film to date, with the most beautiful aesthetic- wear an old scout uniform or a pink or yellow 1940s dress with knee socks. I really want to dress up as one of the characters from this film but my depleted wardrobe stops me </3

FLOAT FOREVER

Thought I'd share some of my doodles and collages that are supposed to be inspiring me for my art project in school that I've just started.. no luck so far on that front.

Anyway recently I've been listening to Swim Deep and Peace because they're really summery bands and I can't wait for summer. I really really reaaally want to go to Latitude 2013, because last year I went with some people and it was amazing, but this year Swim Deep and altJ will be there (not to mention a ton of other great bands) so I've got to go.

My favourite Peace songs at the moment are Float Forever and California Daze (although I have to admit they both sound so similar, I dont even know how the band got away with it) and Honey by Swim Deep is perfect. The music video for Honey is also so cute, and the girl in it is beaautiful, and she gets to dance around and spray paint at the band, so I'm super jealous of her.

 

SWIM DEEP : seriously, look how cool they are, I'd happily get any of these pictures on a tshirt..and look at all that hair. 

 PEACE: I'm seeing a hair trend here..
