Perfect

Having the most perfect day on my friends canal boat.

Goodbye Sweet Dolly

This morning I waved goodbye to my lovely Bike Dolly. She is not broken but is too heavy for me to use (she also doesn't have gears or breaks - crazy gal!). I sold her to the hunky(!) men at Camden Cycles who said she would go to a loving home - think they though I was a bit mad when I told them to look after her.
But its not all sad as tomorrow I will pick up my new sleek 80's stylie racing bike! He doesn't have a name yet so I will have to think of one. Hopefully I will be able to bike more freely and not worry about no breaks or being the sweatiest person imaginable as he is super light.
Live long and prosper Dolly I hope a nice hippy girl bikes you forever...

Goodbye Dolly


Welcome new slick 80's bike

Chanel Half Tint Sunglasses

Now summer is fully upon us I feel its time we all upped our game and got some decent sunnies! I do love the Ray Ban Wayfarers but with so many replicas out there I feel we all need to look further afield.
I am loving the Chanel Half Tint Sunglasses which have been spotted on the skinny faces of the Olsen sisters of late - of course the real Chanel ones will break the bank so here is the cheapest version I could find on Girl Props.
Enjoy!

Half Tint Round from Girl Props $9.99

The N.T.P

I have previously posted about my fabulous sister's (oh and Wayne's) new tea shop in the heart of Manchester's Norther Quarter - North Tea Power. But here are some images I nicked off their Facebook page so you can all get an idea how fab it is. Don't forget to become their facebook fan and also follow all their twittering at http://twitter.com/northteapower.

They will really appreciate the support - SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES EVERYONE!!!

The big sis hard at work


No ordinary shelves here






Probably the most stylish tea break in the world

Cagey

The cage shoes are long over in the world of fashion, but long live the cage bracelet as seen here on Ana Matronic of the Scissor Sisters - where the hell did she get this from? Let me know if you have any ideas.


p.s. she needs to put a bit of weight on not loving the lollipop head version, she looked fab here...

Party Pooper

Want to go to a truly tremendous party? Well listing to me bang on about the Creators Project has finally paid off!
They are holding a pretty fab party on July 17th (Sat)at Victoria House in old Landon Tawn where you will have the opportunity to check out some brilliant artistic work and listen to some coolio bands such as the Filthy Dukes, Flats and Mark Ronson!

Check out the Creators Project Facebook page here for more details, and I will see you guys there.

Dr Marten Lust

To celebrate Sanrio's 50th Anniversary the beautifully cute Hello Kitty is teaming up with Dr Martens and releasing the cutest boots that the world has ever seen!
The white ones with the little bow are my favourite, I will be racing to the Dr Marten shop in Camden to order these little treats in!
I am in love ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

The Creators Project....again....I know!!

I know this is starting to sound like a creators project blog but I promise it isn't!!!

I just need you all to check this site out as it is freaking amazing. This week look at the amazing United Visual Artists videos.
We all love a good lazer/LED light show when we are out and about or watching our favourite music video and these are the guys who make this shit happen. They have used their LED wizardry in Massive Attack and Battles (woo!) videos.


Go and check this bloody site out and I will stop banging on about it...OK!
THE CREATORS PROJECT.

p.s. The Spike Jonez videos should be up soon, watch out for these bad boys.

Download Festival 2010

I haven't been blogging for a while as I have been gallivanting around the countryside, sitting in muddy fields and perving on bearded tattooed rocker men! This was not by random but because we went to Download festival last weekend, and it was truly amazing. If you have never heard of this festival then you are missing out, this was my first year and I thoroughly regret missing all the previous years. We saw Rage Against The Machine (for the second time in 2 weeks), The Deftones (Chino you are a god), Billy Idol, Five Finger Death Punch, Aerosmith, Slash....aaaahhhh the list of pure rock gods is endless!!
AEROSMITH


BILLY IDOL


THE DEFTONES (Chino Moreno - yum yum yum!)


THE MAN...THE GOD...SLASH!


We also visited the lovely cider festival near Abergavenny in South Wales a couple of weeks ago which was an experience. With over 80 different ciders to try I can honestly say I am sick of the stuff. We did visit a lovely old castle where we just had to buy bows and arrows!! Such children.
Here are a few pics, I will put some more up later xx

The Creators Project - Mark Ronson

Ok, so i keep banging on about this Creators Project but its really worth a look at!

The Creators Project is basically a media outlet for some pretty cool videos with the hippest 'creators' around including Peaches (which I have previously blogged about), Mark Ronson, CSS and coming soon Spike Jonze which I am pretty excited about.

Mark Ronson comes across as quiet a nice guy with lots of ideas to offer, so don't let the whole Daisy Lowe / Lily Allen aspect of him spoil your viewing.

Also don't forget to have a look at the events tab on The Creators Projects homepage for fun events in your neck of the woods.

Feather Earrings

After making friends with a girl at Coachella who was wearing some delicious feather earrings I have been scouring the shops for some of my very own. Well I didn't have to look very far, Etsy of course had a seller with some real treats. Beth Nouveau's shop has loads and loads of feathery delights and in the end I opted for the fabulous Zebra Diva Super Long ones which were a barginous $18. I will post a pic up when I get home of me wearing them.

The Creators Project | Peaches

I love Peaches she is a bot of a mad dog...

She is always inventing herself and always at the top of crazy game. As part of the Creators Project a new media output Peaches has created her own art piece. Go and check out the Creators Project website as it is too much for me to explain on my own!!
But here is Peaches video!

Kopparberg

I love Kopparberg cider, they sell it in massive crates at Ikea! So just to make me like them even more they have come up with a marvellous competition take a look at the blurb below...


Got a passion for film, music, fashion or photography? Want the inside word on the best new talent the UK has to offer? Then the Kopparberg Klash is the place for you! Kopparberg in association with VICE Magazine have created the Kopparberg Klash to help you discover the new wave of young talent before the mainstream beckons and the commercial world takes over.

These finalists will have their work showcased at one of four events at different locations across East London, with the winners of these being celebrated at one final Kopparberg Klash. This is the ideal opportunity for the best new bands, stylists, photographers and filmmakers to show their skills to a group of like-minded people and maybe even win some great prizes along the way.

Pretty cool hey? Just head to this website to enter and to look at the entry's so far.
