Lana Del Rey

So the LDR hype's pretty much over. When 'Video Games' first came to the attention of the blogosphere people were falling for her; the song fast became an anthem for umm... 'hipsters' and the question on everyones lips was "jheeeze are those real???" (her lips guys, c'mon). LDR got attention for her looks and her voice. Blogs such as Hipster Runoff even dedicated themselves to her, everything was going swimmingly well then... SNL happened. I watched her live performance wondering if what I was hearing was real. Luckily I saw it behind a computer screen because honestly, I feel if I were in the audience I wouldn't be able to contain my nervous laughter. The LDR hype turned from "OMG SHE'S EVERYTHING I WANT TO BE!!!!!!" to "o..m..g....." 

Saying that, I went and bought her album anyway. She's a good studio artist, I can't deny that. She's also a very beautiful girl. Where do you stand on the LDR spectrum? Is she selling records through her image or her music, and do you think she'll stick around?

Catwalk to Cover

I visited the Fashion and Textiles Museum a few months ago to see the Catwalk to Cover exhibition. It showcased photos from the FROW, items from the catwalk (including those Prada Creepers that I wrote about for Who's Jack !!!!) and street style shots.

If you're in London I'd definately reccomend you check it out, but be quick as the exhibition ends on Feb 25th.

Navajo & Aztec

It's been a while!!! I've been so busy with 6th form that I haven't had time to update Blush & Zero since, dare I say it....SEPTEMBER! SORRY GUYS!

Will you forgive me if I share my current obsession with you?

NAVAJO & AZTEC INSPIRED PRINTS






 



It's nearly the Christmas holidays, so I'll be able to update you more frequently, anyone got Navajo or Aztec prints on their christmas lists?

Oh also, did these prints sway you into forgiving me?

The Cadbury Sisters

These lovely people have been following me on Twitter for some time now, and today I saw a Tweet from them with a video attached. It was their cover of Laura Marling's Ghosts.


If you're a fan of Marling, you won't be disappointed! I definitely wasn't! They all have beautiful voices, and their harmonies are more than perfect. The guitar is also played to perfection; all in all, they did the song justice.


Adele's Someone Like You






It's times like that that I wish I could sing!

Dippy



Finished dip dye!

It faded after the first day, so it's currently baby pink which is quite nice! I'd recommend it, but one warning- IT'S ADDICTIVE! I kept adding more streaks!

So my last post spoke about results day, and I have to say, I'm very please with my GCSE results! I'm over the moon about English; I got and A in Language, and and A* in Literature :)

Reading Festival was also amazing, I'll be doing a post on that later on!

Has anyone else received GCSE or A Level results?
