The girl with effortless style

Elizabeth Olsen in VOGUE US October 2012

She is naturally beautiful and appears to not try too hard when it comes to fashion choices, yet everything she wears looks amazing. I'm not surprised by this considering she's the younger sibling of the most fashionable twins alive right now...but still! 

I have fallen in love with her.

Andrew Gallimore explores the bright future of beauty.

My brother once again shocking the whole family with his quirky videos and pictures. Oh the joys of being a model! Scary video but the make-up is absolutely incredible. I want it done for a shoot!

I have recently worked at Nova Festival for an acting job for The Flicker Club which if you ask me was totally creepy as well. We all had to wear rabbit masks promoting Jan Svankmajer's 1988 film version of Alice in Wonderland. It was a strange job and we had to do it in the pouring rain and muddy fields but we had a lot of fun and got some really cool photographs.

Ok, so admittedly my brothers pictures are oh so cool and mine are just strange...but, hey ho!

What do you think?!

"Untouched Paradise"

Photos from Julys edition of VOGUE of Karlie Kloss taken by Mario Testino. I adore his photography, he always seems to capture things so beautifully. 

quote from vogue.com:

"“Bahia is a little piece of heaven. It’s really an untouched paradise,” says model Karlie Kloss,who stars in the July issue’s “Brazilian Treatment”—the ten-page portfolio shot by Mario Testino for Vogue in celebration of all things sun and spa."

What do you think of these shots? I have fallen in love with the first one as she looks like a mermaid and considering my love for Ariel, I always have had a soft spot for mermaids! (I am one, that's why...) Also, the 'dancer-shot' is gorgeous. 

Which is your favourite, and why?

Olsen obsessive

As years go by, and no I'm not exaggerating I literally mean years, I constantly believe I will suddenly lose interest in Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. However, it's been near enough 10 years now and I still absolutely adore almost everything about them. So today, I've decided to do an appreciation post of some of my favourite photos of them. Plus I'm going to go all Mary-Kate on you and wear red lipstick, big sunglasses and heals. Well I do this most days but still...

WOW! I seriously don't know where to stop...I have so many incredible photos of the girls and I just could post about them daily. I have a tumblr for pictures of the Olsens if anyone wants to check it out:

What's your favourite photo of the Olsen twins?

Fruit & Nut

I disappeared off the blogging radar for a few weeks but I'm back and here to stay. After weeks of preparation for my performance in a play at my final show at Drama school plus tons of work, it is now all over and I need to get stuck into life in London without university so I avoid entering the depressing pit of nothingness. I refuse for this to happen!

I have quite a lot to look forward to plus now I am free of university work I am able to focus on blogging, my health and happiness and possibly even getting real work in the real world. How exciting!

Saturday is my day

Saturday is coming to a close and although I have literally done nothing today, I feel as though I've achieved a lot. Plus I have enjoyed my nothing-ness day! It's as if I really needed a day like today. My head feels clear, my room is clean, I am happy and I know I'll have lots of lovely sleep tonight!

Today, as I said, hasn't been filled with lots of major plans - however I seem to have done a few bits and bobs and just made it a very leisurely saturday. It has indeed been wonderful.

I popped to do my food shop and picked up some others bits and bobs to keep me entertained today!

Oh the colours are too pretty!

I chose 208 PAPARAZZI for my girlie mood

Then I went wild and added some sparkles...I think I'm still a 6 year old girl!

I had my performances of Animal Farm yesterday, which to my very surprise, actually went ok! I admittedly did not enjoy the whole process of being in that play, however, the performances were fun and the audience appeared to enjoy themselves. It wasn't the best show of the week, I know that! However, to have made everyone laugh and knowing everyone in that audience smiled that evening because of us - well that's enough for me! It's over now anyway and I am very happy to say that for my last project at East 15 Acting school I have been picked by the brilliant director Hamish Gray (who has recently been in Salmon Fishing In The Yemen) to be in I Remember Mama by John Van Druten! Plus I am working with my best friends on it as we were all picked by him (privileged!). This news has made my weekend!

I bought this bubble bath purely because of this little quote on the bottle! (I love it!) Oh, and it smells divine.

I made a yummy smoked salmon dinner mmm

This song is amazing to put on when meditating & relaxing

I did a short amount of yoga & meditation to get me sleepy before bed

And now Saturday is over and I'm in bed watching Friends. The little things are what count...do something every day to make yourself smile. It makes a world of difference!

And now I'm watching Friends in bed with a Vanilla tea!

I hope everyone has had a relaxing saturday too.

Night night sweet dreams!
