Sunburn!

The weather has been so good at the moment and I decided to go to the park and catch up on some reading...4 hours later THIS HAPPENS:
I am in severe pain right now. I have work tomorrow...will I make it? I'll let you know...

Oh I do like to be beside the seaside.....

Had a brilliant day today at the beach in West Whitterings with my housemates, the sun was shining, the sky was blue and the sea was warm. Perfect.

More Summer Lines from Jigaw

I am really enjoying jigsaw and the summer line is excellent! Here are a few pieces that have been a hit with the customers:

BBQ

Sun is Shining, The weather is Sweet.....

The weather has been so amazing as of f late that me and my housemate have rustered up a home-made BBQ and made a superb bacon double cheeseburger! Weather like this changes everything; moods, clothes, food, company...everthing just seems to feel happier. Long may it reign!

Anyways summer is here! The weather has been pretty dodgy but it has been sunny as of late. We had our summer ball the other day and luckily the weather turned out weel enough to take some nice photos and have a bbq!

I want the sun to come out!!!

I want spring to be here! The common cold has decided to take a pit stop on my nose and I seriously cannot take it anymore! I want the rain, the wind, the puddles to go so glorious sunshine can hit my face and people can mow there lawns so you get that amazing fresh smell!

Jigsaw's S/S10 collection

I am thoroughly enjoying the new collection at jigsaw! It seems a lot fresher, original and dare-I-say-it YOUNGER. I felt that although the winter collection was extremely good however a lot of the the styles didn't stand out of their own, however with this season, every single item is unigue and original. Our store has also been blessed with being allowed to sell what is called the 'stitches range which only 5 stores sell. They are extremely limited and are generally made from 100% cashmere and silk and give our store that extra individuality to the high street which seems to be over-copying trend after trend. Some of the trends included the revival of the Riviera trend, Bosten stripes and Safara skirts.

Here are some of the key looks on the website:

-I really like this striped club jacket, reminds me of Jack wills and had an amazing red silk commenwealth flag print inside.

The dress is inspired by 50s print and I like the use of the yellow within the print for a fresh summer look.

I hope you enjoy them!

The Girl with Glass Feet

My best friend and I were not able to see each other over the Christmas holidays, when we did finally meet up when stepped into waterstones, found two books that were the same price and traded them when we bought them.

Initially I was all out to get Tolstoy's 'Anna Karenina' for some serious reading but this little gem caught my eye....


Here is the description of the novel, 'Befallen Ida Maclaird - she is slowly turning into glass, from the feet up. She returns to St Hauda's Land, where she believes the glass first took hold, in search of a cure. Midas Crook is a young loner, who has lived on the islands his entire life. When he meets Ida, something about her sad, defiant spirit pierces his emotional defenses. As Midas helps Ida come to terms with her affliction, she gradually unpicks the knots of his heart, and they begin to fall in love...What they need most is time - and time is slipping away fast'.

I have yet to finish this, but I love it more and more and I believe it is a must read. It is tragic, beautiful and at moments funny. I recommend you read this.

Actions and consequences

Last night, my house at university completely broke down, resulting in me staying over a friends house. I can honestly say I have never been so shocked in my life at what happened. I couldn't bring myself to come home and didn't chat to them till 10 o'clock in the evening.

I will not get into the reason for me leaving the house, as it is not the reason for this blog.

What I am trying to say is that you should always think about what you say. It is alright saying you say what you think but you have no idea how it can hurt the other person. You can control it and you need to understand how it will effect everything.

We are all talking together now, but it's going to take a while for everything to be ok again. It never had to be like this either if people learn to control themselves.
