Existentialism on Prom night...

Hey hunnies! 
                        Long time no speak but basically the last few weeks have been a mixture of the end of exams, a huge load of celebrating the end of exams, crazy last minute prom prep, uberly tanned skin, getting my first ever job, PROM, recovering from prom, starting work and a few more parties...
So as you can see I have been insanely busy as of late and I probably will be for the next month or so as not only do I have my new job which see's me working crazy hours this weekend ( I'm usually coming home at 4am not getting up to go to work) but it's also 2 of my best friends birthdays and I still have to celebrate my other best friend's birthday with her as it coincided with prom! And I obviously have to do all my other general day to day living too! So I just thought I'd show you all some pictures of the last few weeks or so and also finally show you my prom dress, yay! Enjoy poppets, speak soon, I promise!

Yes that's mostly prom pics, but I can only wear that dress once and I want to get my moneys worth...
I'm also on instagram now if anyone wants to have a gander at my every day shenanigans, through the oh so cool camera phone filters the delightful little app offers. My username's izzi96 
Hope you're all doing well and I shall be back with my summer faves post soon and hopefully a haul once I've got paid, yayyy!

Hello...is it me you're looking for?

Bonjour mon chéris! 
                                   Okay, I'll just get it out of the way. I abandoned you for a bit. There's no excuse and I'm sorry, I just needed some me time, you didn't do anything to piss me off, I just needed to be me for a while and remember who I was before we started this little love affair...Just kidding, but I am very sorry I have been away for a while. Don't worry though, now I'm back and glammer than ever becauseeeeee


EXAMS ARE OVER!!!!!!!!


Yes I know, the excitement is a bit much to digest, hence the reason I have walked round for the last few days happier than Larry...whomever Larry may be. 
So this week is going to be all about the prom preparations, meaning there's going to be lots of things for me to post about as I have been purchasing a fair few items to help me feel all goddess like and lovely on Prom night, yay! 


Sorry, that this was just a quick one guys but I'm just updating you all. Speak soon!


Stay classy!X

Degenerate Beauty-Queen...

Hola Chicasss!


Okay so terrifyingly I've reached that point in my life where things have started to get a bit serious and grown-up. In less than two weeks I leave school and start my GCSE's and in about 6 weeks they'll all be done and my future will be in the hands of those little dweebs called "examiners" *shudder*. To be perfectly honest, I'm absolutely petrified. I don't do well under pressure and I'm not one of those people who can sit for weeks in advance and prepare, as quite frankly I'd rather be out having fun. Now some of you may think this is the wrong way to look at it and after 16 years of life, I should've probably changed my ways. However, thus far revising for exams about 3 days in advance has worked fine, and snagged me 3 A's in my GCSE's that I took early may I add. So until that disgusting day comes when I actually have to grow up and sort my life out, I plan on carrying on as I am and live in a world of eye-liner,glitter, crosses, red lips and white tee's. Hellz yeah. 
Now with all the gross stuff out of the way I will get down to business, leaving school means GCSE's but it also means...PROM!!!
As a British teen who was grown-up living vicariously through American TV shows, I have been counting down to Prom for years. In my eyes Prom is kind of like a wedding rehearsal/warm-up, way in advance. It's going to be my first big event, that requires me to dress up, arrive in a fancy car, tolerate people I don't really like, have a crappy meal and then do the YMCA with people that I probably won't see again for a few years. 
The most important thing in that list of course is the dressing up, in a dress. And beautiful shoes. And amazing jewellery. And a lovely bag. SO exciting. 
Well at least it was until I realised my idea of what my perfect prom outfit was, does not exist. Anywhere. And I mean anywhere. For the past 3 months I have been searching everywhere for a dress that is perfect mixture of beautiful,classy,sparkly,perfect but most importantly NOT stereo-typical bedazzled,tulle covered, sticky out prom dress that seems to be the go to article for girls everywhere these days. 
Basically I want to look like this....



or wear this...
 Is this too much? 

But definitely not like this...



So if any of you have any idea where I could find such a thing, please do let me know, I would greatly appreciate it.

Speak soon lovelies!
Stay classy!x
