STOLEN GIRLFRIENDS CLUB SS12

I HAVE A SOFT SPOT FOR AUSTRALIAN/NZ BRANDS, I AM TOTALLY CONVINCED I WAS BORN IN THE WRONG COUNTRY! STOLEN GIRLFRIENDS CLUB IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITES. BELOW ARE IMAGES FROM THEIR SS12 CAMPAIGN 'HERE LIES THE BONES'. SO COOL. I AM COVETING THE SKELETAL LACE MAXI.

1. THOUGHT I'D SHOW MY FACE, HELLOOOO.
2. WENT IN TO TOWN TODAY TO GET SOME BITS FOR SOME MORE DIY THINGS I WANT TO DO, ALSO HAD SOME LINKS TAKEN OUT OF A GOLD WATCH I'VE WANTED TO WEAR FOR AGES BUT COULDN'T BECAUSE OF MY SKELETOR WRISTS, SO ITS BEEN ONE OF THOSE 'JOB DAYS'. I WENT TO THE RANGE, THEY DIDN'T HAVE WHAT I WAS AFTER BUT MY GOD THERES A LOT OF SHIT SO I HAD A GOOD MINCE ROUND. ENDED UP GETTING SOME MATTE BLACK SPRAY PAINT AND SOME DYLON DYES, GON' SPRAY SOME STUFF AND WANT TO TRY DIP DYEING SOMETHING. I ALSO WENT TO MY LOCAL HABBER-DASHERS FOR SOME METAL D-RINGS AND B&Q FOR CHAIN, ALSO GOT A PLIERS SET FOR £5. I LOVE THE WAY THE TRADESMEN SHOPPING IN B&Q LOOK SO CONFUSED WHEN THEY SEE A WOMEN STROLLING ABOUT ALONE, I LIKE HAVING A LOOK ABOUT WHEN I'M IN THERE. I'M NOT LOST HAHA.
3. IMPULSE PURCHASE BY THE TIL IN PRIMARK, THEY LOOK ALRIGHT, I'LL PUT A POST UP WHEN I'VE HAD A GO WITH THEM.

NEW ADDITIONS

BLACK AZTEC PRINT PONTI TUBE SKIRT £20 RIVER ISLAND

I HAVENT BOUGHT ANYTHING FROM RIVER ISLAND FOR AGES BUT I GOT A VOUCHER FOR CHRISTMAS SO I NIPPED IN THE MANCHESTER STORE THE OTHER DAY, THE SALE IS RIDICULOUS I COULDN'T BE ARSED WITH IT HOWEVER THE FIRST DROP OF S/S12 STUFF IS LOOKING GOOD. I CHOSE THIS SKIRT BECAUSE I THINK I NEED TO START ADDING SOME PRINTS TO MY WARDROBE, EVERYTHING I OWN IS BLACK! IT'S ALSO VERSATILE, I PLAN TO WEAR IT WITH A COOL CROPPED TEE/JERSEY VEST FOR CASUAL AND MAYBE DRESS IT UP AT NIGHT BY WEARING MY AMERICAN APPAREL TANK LEOTARD UNDERNEATH (GET ONE, IT WILL TAKE YOU EVERYWHERE) AND HEELS. 

I WILL DO SOME PROPER OUTFIT POSTS SOON, IM JUST TRYING TO FIND THE BEST WAY TO DO IT WITH MY NAFF CAMERA!! XRX

MATTE NAILS

YESSSS IT ARRIVED (SORRY ABOUT THE MANY NAIL POSTS IN A ROW I DIDNT MEAN TO DO IT, JUST HAPPENED! I HAVE FINALLY CRACKED MY BITING HABIT SO ITS LIKE A WHOLE NEW WORLD FOR ME) ITS GREAT THIS STUFF AND SEEMS TO WORK ON ANY COLOUR, I'VE TRIED IT ON BLACK, NUDE AND PURPLE SO FAR. I GOT MINE HERE FOR ABOUT £6, HAD TO WAIT FOR IT TO COME FROM THE U-S THOUGH, IF YOU CAN'T WAIT, IT'S AVAILABLE IN BOOTS FOR £11.25.

LUSTING

TRYING TO GROW MY NAILS SO I'LL BE ABLE TO DO THIS WHEN MY ESSIE MATTE TOPCOAT ARRIVES. THIS POLISH IS THE YSL TERRIBLEMENT NOIR NAIL DUO, I THINK ITS ABOUT £25 BUT I CANT FIND A UK STOCKIST ONLINE, ANNOYING, BUT THAT IS QUITE EXPENSIVE HOPEFULLY I'LL BE ABLE TO GET THE SAME EFFECT!

MATTE STUFF

ORDERED THIS OFF EBAY HERE CAN'T WAIT TO HAVE A GO WITH IT, I REALLY WANTED A BLACK MATTE BUT IT WILL BE GOOD TO HAVE A GO AT MAKING SOME OF THE COLOURS I ALREADY HAVE INTO MATTE. HAS ANYONE USED IT BEFORE? ANY GOOD?

BARGAIN NAILS

NAILS: NO7 BEAUTIFULLY BLACK £2 (WITH VOUCHER) USUALLY £7

RING: TOPSHOP £1.50 (SALE)

YOU KNOW HOW BOOTS ALWAYS GIVE OUT THE £5 OFF NO7 BRAND VOUCHERS, AND USUALLY THEY GET BINNED 'CAUSE YOU DON'T NEED ANY MORE BITS OF SHITTY PAPER IN YOUR PURSE. USE THEM AGAINST THE NAIL POLISHES, THEY ARE NORMALLY £7, AND THEY ARE REALLY DECENT. TWO COATS GIVES A PERFECT COVER, THEY ARE QUICK DRYING AND HAVE A HIGH GLOSS FINISH IF YOU ARE INTO THAT. THE SELECTION OF COLOURS IS GOOD TOO, SO ITS WORTH HAVING A GOOSE AT.

DIY SPIKE CLUTCH

DEAD EASY THIS
GET:
1.A PLAIN CLUTCH BAG (CHARITY SHOPS ARE IDEAL)
2.SCREW BACK SPIKES, I GOT MINE OFF THIS GUY
3.DRILL
4.RULER
5.COMPASS OR SOMETHING SHARP TO MARK THE BAG

-USE THE RULER TO LINE UP THE SPIKES OR CREATE YOUR PATTERN, TAKE YOUR TIME, YOU WANT THEM TO BE STRAIGHT. 

-TAKE THE COMPASS OR SHARP THING AND MARK THE BAG UNDER WHERE YOU HAVE PLACED THE STUDS, GIVE IT A GOOD STAB 'CAUSE YOU WANT TO BE ABLE TO SEE THE MARK, DON'T STAB YOURSELF.  THIS TAKES A WHILE SO BE PATIENT.

-DRILL HOLES THROUGH THE BAG WHERE YOU HAVE MADE YOUR MARKS, MAKE SURE YOU ARE DRILLING ONTO A SURFACE YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT, SO NOT YOUR PARENTS KITCHEN TABLE. I USED AN OLD BOOK TO REST ON. (ITS BETTER IF THE DRILL HOLES ARE SMALLER THAN THE SPIKE SCREW, YOU DONT WANT THE HOLES TO BE TOO BIG)

-PUSH THE BACKS OF THE SPIKES THROUGH THE HOLES, I HAD TO USE A BIT OF FORCE, AND I ALSO USED NAIL SCISSORS TO WIDEN THE HOLES FROM THE OTHER SIDE.

I DID TAKE PHOTOS TO GO WITH THIS DIY BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS PRETTY STRAIGHT FORWARD AND THEY WEREN'T NEEDED. ALSO I FEEL REALLY ILL TONIGHT AND I WAS GETTING REALLY STRESSED OUT TRYING TO MAKE THE PHOTOS GO WHERE I WANT THEM HAHA! BUT I REALLY WANTED TO PUT THIS FIRST POST UP ANYWAY SO HERE 'TIS.
