I only have eyes for you

eyes

It’s that time of year again. Valentine’s Day. Wonderful. A time where tacky love heart covered paraphernalia is everywhere and glitter is in abundance. Can you tell I’m not wildly sold on the idea of the Hallmark holiday? This is not because I am bitter, mind you, not at all. I have no Bridget Jones style I-hate-love plans for Thursday night, rather I will be spending a nice quiet evening in with my man. I actually have quite nice memories of Valentine’s Day from 1996 where my “boyfriend” at the time gave me a love heart shaped balloon and a gorilla holding a pillow that said “I love you”. We were only an item as we were friends and in the same class at school, and the furthest we ever went was holding hands – hence the ” “.

As I am not V-Day’s number 1 fan I decided to steer clear of love hearts and glitter and go for something slightly more obscure. Typical.

So I have eyes all over my nails. Get it? I only have eyes for you. And there’s a little wink in there too.

Happy almost Valentine’s Day y’all. xx

the pastel zone

I have officially stepped out of my comfort zone. Not with the leopard, of course, but with the pastels. I am feeling increasingly more girly by the minute and it’s a weird feeling. I feel like I need some waxed denim, leather and studs. And skulls. Lots of skulls. Might actually contrast nicely and make those pastels a bit more badass. Time for a wardrobe change!

Too bad it’s too warm for leather. Seems that the London summer is slowly creeping in. Love.
