Friday, 17 June 2011

Why hello there!

I have been gone for far too long!

A combination of Download prep, then the festival itself!, then the bf's birthday and work being manic means i just haven't had time to post which makes Kirsti a sad little blogger!

Just a short post to let you know i am still alive (if you follow me on Twitter you would have seen some sporadic tweets from moi) and i have lots lined up for my blog that will keep us all occupied for a little while :)


My 100 followers giveaway end tonight at midnight so get your last minute entries in by leaving a short comment and your contact details and you could win this cheeky bundle of goodies!


So how are y'all keeping? Have i missed much?

Day 30 - 30 Day Challenge - A photograph of yourself taken today + three good things that have happened in the past 30 days ...

Friday, 27 May 2011

Day 30 of my 30 Day Challenge - A photograph of yourself taken today + three good things that have happened in the past 30 days:

So this is the final installment of my 30 day challenge - time flies, eh!? I hope you've enjoyed getting to know the girl behind The Notebook a bit better.


 
Above is a photo of myself taken today. This morning i woke up in Kingston after a great night out with the lovely Zoe @ The London Lipgloss and outside the hotel i stayed in was this random collection of red telephone boxes - i couldn't resist a tourist style snappy snap before heading off home.

Three good things that have happened to me in the last 30 days:

1. I recently won Zoe's giveaway to meet Frank Turner and go to one of his shows. Me and the bf went along to the Hippodrome in Kingston last night and met Zoe and Frank :) Had a fantastic time! xx

2. I booked a whole bunch of gig tickets for the summer months including Download Festival, Gallows, The Blackout and a few cheeky others that I'll mention at another time.

3. I reached 100 followers on my blog!! Amaze :) Thank you all xoxo

Don't forget to enter my giveaway :)

OOTN - Coral Jeans - Colour Blocking Trend

Saturday, 21 May 2011

Hey girlies, hope y'all having a fabulous weekend. I havent got up to a whole bunch (which is bank-balance friendly!) but a little dull as i dont have many stories for you!

I did however pop to the local last night for a quick drink with the bf and some friends. Lots of discussions took place about our upcoming trip to Download Festival; food and drink being of main concern. I'm thinking of doing my ultimate festival survival guide before i go (i've had to compile one for some of the girls at work who are going to their first ever festival this year!) there's alot of these type of posts floating around at the mo so i'm not sure whether y'all need another one or not?! Hmmm...

Anyways, now onto my OOTN from last night's pub shenanigans:






... sorry the pics arent the best, the bf didnt want to take them and then i didnt want to pose with him being grumpy n all :/ lol ...


New boots - look pretty but gave me awful blisters on the balls of my feet and i have been hobbling around like an invalid alllll day :(


Leather studded jacket: sooo old!
Pale pink vest top: Primark
Feather necklaces: Primark
Bracelets:Primark
Coral Jeans: eBay shop
Fur Lined Buckle boots: eBay shop

What are your fave colour-blocking items? Have you got any deadly shoes that you repeatedly wear even though they kill?!

Wishlist for May ...

Tuesday, 3 May 2011

Hiya ladies :)

I've decided to a 'Wishlist for May' post about all the things i'm currently wanting/needing/looking for. As you'll see below so are a little far-fetched *hello, Alexander McQueen clutch* but most are affordable.

I'm trying to be good and not spend much monies as i have a very packed summer coming up so we'll see at the end of the month how good i've really been by whats still left in my Wishlist shopping basket!

Lets begin...

If you've read my other posts you'll know that i am currently obsessing over the boho look and the free-spirited style of Nicole Richie. I long for beachy, messy waves and i'm hoping this Babyliss Waving Wand will be my saviour!

Coral jeans. I first saw the most divine pair ever in H&M about 2 months ago but they only had larger sizes left. I checked everywhere for them - online, in Oxford Street, eBay but still havent found a pair :(

We're going to Download festival in June and i'm obsessed with the idea of having a teepee tent. The bf will not budge and has said no :( If i happen to come across a real bargain i will indulge and get one otherwise this will be staying in my wishlist until next festival season.

 I ADORE this Alexander McQueen clutch. I want NEED this in my life!!!

How cute is this!? Totally reminds me of something Katy Perry would wear. I think this will be hopping into my basket pretty soon ;)
I love this bikini but for £60 i dont think it will be mine (unless all my eBay listings do really well and i have some extra spends left over!)

So thats May's wishlist. What do you girlies think? Whats on your wish list?

Day 2 - 30 Day Challenge - Your favourite pair of shoes ...

Friday, 29 April 2011

Day 2 of my 30 Day Challenge - Your favourite pair of shoes



I have chosen this pair as i seem to be wearing these a lot at the mo when i'm not at work. They're a couple of years old now (as you can see by the scruffiness of them!) I wore biker boots all winter which i absolutely adore but now the warmer weather is here they're a bit hot and heavy on my feets :( boo! These are lighter, more in-keeping with my current Boho style so have replaced my gorge biker boots for now.

I think these will be my trusted pair of boots for Download Festival this year too so (depending on the weather) they may only have a couple of months use left in them!

xoxo
