Bloooooooooomin marvellous...

I received these beauties from my sister a few weeks ago...a belated birthday pressie kind of thing...



They're from an amazing Brooklyn-based company called Tilly Bloom...they make lots of weird and wonderful trinkets. On my wishlist are these prettyful curiosities...



Goodbye next paycheque.

In other news...Happy Saint Davids Day! Or Dydd Gwyl Dewi Hapus if we're doing it properly! I celebrated with my lovely flatmates by making welsh-themed celebratory posters to decorate our living room, listening to a welsh-themed spotify playlist compiled by Will (think Goldie Lookin Chain, Stereophonics, Tom Jones etc) and having a few friends over for drinks and what later dissolved into an heated debate over Tim Burton films...lovely.

Things I have been watching to make me happy...





Poorly Clothes?

I have been in bed all weekend.

This is mainly due me having possibly the WORST SINUSES IN THE WORLD.

But, I have come to a realisation...the existence of 'poorly clothes'. These, I have discovered, are the clothes that I always seem to wear when I am ill. My so-called 'poorly outfit' seems to consist of leggings, knitted socks with happy cows on the front, and a big cosy knitted jumper. Pretty standard. I'm guessing there must be other poorly-clothes wearers out there...somewhere?

New We Are Scientists track...

blatantly an excuse to put a picture of Keith Murray in here.



Festival festival festival...BESTIVAL?

I hate February.

This is mainly due to one specific factor; February is around the time that winter starts to get REALLY BORING...and I start to get pangs for a bit of sun. Which makes me think about summer...which makes me think about festivals.

One word...Bestival. Check this for a line up...
