Blue Collar

It's been a long time I shouldn't have left you without no beat to step to, but between sorting my life out, fending off illness and getting myself embroiled in general grown-up activities I haven't had much time to dedicate to the blog.
Aaand what time I've had free I've spent with my nose buried in The Grapes Of Wrath, so being the weirdo that I am I decided to dress up like one of those migrant farm-hands Steinbeck was always harping on about.. you know the ones I'm talking about, they ploughed the fields in heels and wore fur over their denim overalls?

Pet My Fur

I literally jumped at the chance to wear this furry delight today, been thinking a lot about all the things I miss about autumn and the biggest thing is fur, so thanks crazy, attention-seeking, Icelandic volcano for messing with the atmosphere and giving me a legit reason to wear fur in the summer! I did actually have a leather jacket on to stave off the wind but I got brave and took it off as soon as I got off the tube and in the car. Very much in love with lavender and pink for lips and nails right now, I reaaaaally want a lavender lipstick but haven't seen one anywhere ..major grumps.

What You Waiting For

Do you ever feel like the synapses in your head are all shooting opposing messages through your brain to purposely distract you from doing the things you're supposed to be doing?! no? just me? okay.

Take for instance this week, how apt that I became obsessed with chocolate milkshakes (mana from Heaven I swear) the same week I decided to start working out again ?_?.. why does my mind hate me?! WHY is it sabotaging all my attempts to be better?!

I'm aware that most times the mind is willing but the flesh is weak, so I guess in this case my mind is just downright unruly.. it's riding off into the sunset with my self-discipline and any possibility of future accomplishments, and my weak flesh is too weak to do anything to stop it.

Hurrrumph.
In other news, I finally wore these Boden chinos I stole from my stepdad last year (muahhhahaha ..shortened them and took them in for a nicer fit), and I wore my little sister's t-shirt that I 'borrowed' and is noticeably a few sizes too small, but that I still fully intend on keeping.

You see that crazy look in my eyes? that's my hurry up and take the picture there's a Plantation Platter and a chocolate milkshake waiting for me at Harvesters-look.. 

I need to go to the place Gwen goes to to find her inner peace a.s.a.p.
