It's a love story, baby just say yes - OOTD

Another speedy OOTD for you to enjoy - I quickly put this together in a rush this morning, hence my haggard looking face! Oh and I swear my arms aren't that big - my denim shirt takes being 'oversized' to the next level!

12 Favourite Songs of 2012 so far...

Hello everyone,

Just a little post on this miserable rainy Sunday afternoon - I officially despise English weather! 

Anyway, here's my 12 favourite songs of 2012 so far...enjoy!

1. Domino - Jessie J.
- I absolutely ADORE this song, it's so catchy and I can't help but dance when I hear it! It's an ideal song for getting ready to go out with the girls!
2. You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go - Bob Dylan cover by Miley Cyrus.
- I already loved the original version of this song but as soon as I heard Miley covering it, I knew I'd love it ten times more, her voice matches the song's meaning and rhythm perfectly. 
3. Levels - Avicii 
- This is such a feel-good song, perfect for those days when it's sunny (rare in the UK I know!) - this song has such uplift and makes me so motivated and ready to tackle the day.
4. Twilight - Cover Drive
- I absolutely love this song, perfect at parties...especially when with that special someone! - Enough said!
5. Alone Again - Alyssa Reid (the original version)
- I'd say this is a modern version of Britney's 'Everytime' as for me, the song really speaks to me and is personal, something which has been missing from the charts for so long. I'm not too keen on the remixed version of this song and think it destroys the song's meaning!
6. Call Me Maybe - Carly Rae Jepson
- Such a cute, happy-go-lucky song that cheers you up with it's upbeat and infectious tune!
7. Lego House - Ed Sheeran
- As a former student at my school I'm almost obliged to love his songs but I genuinely do! I know his album was released last year but I'm putting it here anyway! His voice is so soothing and all in all his album is perfect to fall asleep to - I've tried and tested this over and over again!
8. The One You Say Goodnight To - Kinna Grannis
- Again this was released last year but after hearing it as part of Gossip Girl's soundtrack I've fallen head over heels in love with it - it oozes old school love mixed with the little love heart sweets to make an overly sweet and charming song!
9. Safe and Sound - Taylor Swift
- Anything Taylor Swift I adore but this song as part of the Hunger Games soundtrack gains two brownie points from me. Again, this is perfect for sending you to sleep and is so calming.
10. Part of Me - Katy Perry
- Such a motivational song, oozing girl power ideal for post break-ups and girly nights both in or out!
11. Where Do Broken Hearts Go? - Whitney Houston
- Though this song was released years ago, I thought it was only fitting for me to mention this, my all time favourite song of the late Whitney Houston. My love life has been battered the past few years and time after time I've gone to this song when I'm upset. RIP Whitney and thank you.
12. We Are Young - Fun
- Such a catchy and relatable songs for teenagers like myself...you know what I mean!

If you've read this far, I applaud you, thank you for reading my ramblings...what are your favourite songs at the moment? Let me know!

OOTDs on their way this week!!

Leaping Lizards...it's a LEAP DAY!

Hello everyone, 

Just a short and sweet little blog post seeing as I won't be able to write another one on this date for another four years! Just imagine having your birthday on February 29th, you'd be a quarter of your age - being the pathetic person I am, I find this so weird yet so cool!
Leap Day traditions are just as cool/weird.... by Irish legend, women are 'allowed' to propose to men...
What will you be doing this Leap Day? I certainly won't be joining in this tradition - I'm single, and asking a boy to marry me will definitely not be on my agenda - maybe next Leap Day?! hahaaa

Home study is my best friend!

Hello everyone, 

After toodling home early due to home study and only having two lessons on a Wednesday, I'd thought I'd come home, grab a cup of tea and sit down to write a little blog post! The sun is shining today and coming home early has just boosted my mood so much, I'm literally on cloud nine at the moment; I'm in my pajama bottoms (I change into these comfortable creations as soon as I get home - luxury!) and I'm just doodling around the house, aka procrastinating and dabbling doing 'bits' of homework. And I use the term 'bits' very loosely - I'm rearranging folders, fun fun!

Any way, I thought I'd just do a rambly, un-planned post and just tell you what's to come! I'm probably going to spend the afternoon catching up with Gossip Girl, online - o.O yes online, so I'm way ahead of the UK's airing - cheeky! Then I reckon I'll do a little bit of homework and make a revision plan of some sort as mocks are coming to get me in three weeks time - eek! Nonetheless, I'm in the process of planning some little cutesy blog posts; books, beauty and fashion thingmabobs, advice and such things!

I hope you're all enjoying this beautiful sunshine the UK is currently having and likewise if you're elsewhere in the world I hope you all have a lovely day and rest of the week!

I'll leave you with an ickle photo of myself loving home study!

Till next time, Georgie xoxo

OPI Obsessed!

After a clearing of my bedroom and more importantly my wardrobes, I rediscovered my OPI nail polish collection and after weeks of having 'naked' nails, I treated myself to a nice new coat of paint! Luxury!
I'd forgotten how lovely these nail polishes were and the overall brand OPI - I have a few other beauty products of theirs; their lipstick line, of which I think may be discontinued now, is to die for!

I've recently become reacquainted with this gorgeous purplely blue iridescent polish, 'Sugarplum Yum' of which is flip-colour, changing in different lights. It has blue, purple, pink and perhaps a dash of silver to its tones and as OPI are all too well known for; it goes on a treat! OPI is renowned for its longevity and un-chipping nature, all of which I adore about the brand.
Here's a close up of 'Sugarplum Yum' - isn't the name cute? So whimsical and nostalgic, reminiscent of fantasy forests and such in fairytales!

Till next time, Georgie xoxo

OOTD - A day at sixth form

Here's my first OOTD, just a day a normal day at sixth form. I tend to wear comfortable casual clothes, grabbing whatever I can scavenge in my wardrobes in the morning!

Here's my outfit!

Cashmere Jumper - Vintage
Leigh Skinny Jeans - Topshop
Collared Top - Topshop
Grey Leather Boots - Topshop Sale

I absolutely adore this pashmina scarf, I'm forever throwing this on to add a pop of colour and pattern to my outfit!
Likewise, this pennyfaced owl necklace is in many of my outfits during the week, it was a bargain too; about £3/4 from New Look! My pashmina is a flurry of green and purple paisley print and is so snuggly and warm; I got it for a couple of £s at a market! 

I adore these Topshop jeans, they're so stretchy and I think dark washes are so much more slimming than lighter more summery washes. These Leigh jeans are quite thin though, which is beneficial as they feel like leggings almost and are so comfy but I am weary of how long they'll last before a hole emerges! These are £38 I believe though I snapped them up when Toppers had a 20% student discount special which made my purse very happy! 

Underneath my jumper I'm wearing this little sleeveless top which I bought last summer, it's got a cute flower pattern collar and I think it makes the outfit a lot more dressed-down and effortless; layering is so easy too! Especially in the mornings when I'm rushed for time! 

I'm currently crazing this OPI polish of which I rediscovered whilst clearing my wardrobes out during half term. It's called 'Sugarplum Yum' and either it's been renamed or discontinued. Nevertheless, the colour is beautiful! It's shimmery and almost flip colour, infusing pinks, purples and a dash of blue into the polish, it's so iridescent and like no other polish I've come across! Fair to say I'm so glad I tidied up my wardrobes! 

Hope you enjoyed my OOTD and I hope to do some more!

Tell me what you think!

Georgie xoxo
