Marina and the Diamonds/Outfits

Last night I went to see Marina and the Diamonds (as you may have read in my previous post). SHE WAS A-MAZING, seriously... I loved every minute of it and she played lots of her songs! This all included really awesome outfits and props (see above, although there are only 4 looks). For the song Mowgli's Road she wore a feathered hat, for the song Hermit The Frog, she carried 6 balloons.. three in each hand and for I Am Not A Robot she had 2 little pink light-up hearts.
LOOK AT THE SHOES, aren't they fantastic??? I this concert I had the best place to stand out of everyone there! Right at the front, right upfront of the mic ^.^ I went with a group of friends and everyone loved it so much, if I'd had stayed longer I would have got to meet her which kinda sucks.. but I guess you never know at times like those. Some of my friends got a chance to meet her + get her autograph and picture with her. I'm quite jealous tbh! Above is myself before the concert, queueing. My friend was in the photo too but I decided to crop her out because she probably wouldn't want herself to be on my blog, just incase anyway.
MY OUTFIT White top: Next Purple jumper: Dorothy Perkins Pink cardigan: My mums, it's Sisley Floral jeans: Primark Necklace: Claire's Handbag: Topshop I also wore 2 rings but you can't see them in this picture. Snake one and one that was my mums :-) Oh and Converses. I was looking through my August issue of Nylon (a denim issue) a couple days ago and came across this page with floral jeans on which I absolutely l-o-v-e. It made me think of the ones I bought in Primark which I wore to the concert. Total bargain considering these ones cost much more.

What's your favourite out of these 4 jeans? And what do you think of Marina and her outfits from yesturday? Like her shoes? I love hearing from you guys! So keep leaving comments below and I'll reply to all :-) xoxo, Isabella

Some of my sketches (old and new)

TAYLOR MOMSEN
This one went a bit wrong as you can tell, I guess you could say it's not quite finished!


AUDREY HEPBURN


TWIGGY
Drew this last night. And yeah, the nose isn't quite finished - oops.

A Girl I Made Up

Another Girl I Made Up, inlcuding words I came up with;
She's A Broken Dolly, Fragile, Fear if I speak I'll say the wrong thing.
I was really depressed when I drew this me thinks :-/
But I'm quite proud of it.

ANIME GIRL
Copied from an image on the internet.
Heh, I love anime but barely ever do it.

RANDOM
Something I drew when I was bored one time, nothing special.
 

SOME GIRL
I tried to copy a sketch I saw online but it ended up looking a bit different.
Drew it last night...


These are just a few of my sketches scanned from my A5 sketchbook, I had to darken each one because when I scan them it lightens them.. Apoligies if I've overdone the darkening of the exposure! Hope you like! I'm not amazing or anything, but I hope to get better as time progresses.

P.S. I'm going to see Marina and the Diamonds tomorrow! So excited, I'm really looking forward to it! Who's heard of her? Will post pictures hopefully, from the night like I did with the Pretty Reckless (Taylor Momsen) concert.
Stay tuned.

Marina and the Diamonds - Are You Satisfied?

Snake Ring Obsession

Yesturday I was out shopping, naturally - and I bought this cute little snake ring from Primark. And it was only £2.50 (if I remember correctly) :-) I've wanted one for ages, since I first saw the Elizabeth and James ones back when the jewellery collection first started.
Normally I see them, and they are too expensive (like E&J) so I was pretty chuffed when I saw this one, even though it's not quite like the E&J ones.


I also bought dark blue 'skinny' (they're not skinny on me, so baggy) jeans with pink roses on, I love them. And also another florally thing - a jumper for winter which is cream with little pink roses on aswell.. haha oh dear another obsession - roses?!

Happy Saturday.

Lily Cole's gone brunnette!

Lily Cole spotted at Cambridge yesturday.
Can you believe it? Lily Cole has made a drastic change to what she was before - previously well known for being a gorgeous ginger. This is reportedly the first time she has ever dyed her hair - and she's also gone for matching eyebrows too! I think she still looks lovely! Even though, it is a bit of shock to the system! Unfortunatly we don't get a proper good look at her new hair because of her wolly hat but I'm sure there will be a time and place for a proper look!

What do you think of the new Lily? -Isabella

Yesturdays Outfit


Excuse my cats butt that got in the picture! Haha!

Hey guys! I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has commented on one of my posts before! I'm so glad my blog is starting to get more views! And an even bigger thank you to those who have followed, I may not have alot but hey - I'm getting there. Thank you to those 2 new followers. Also I would like to say, happy 10.10.10! ;) I think it's a pretty cool day. Once I had my birthday on 06.06.06 and that was awesome too, heh - now you'll all know when's my birthday :-)

Anyway! Back to the topic, yesturday I went round my friends house wearing this outfit. I would of gone without tights but it was slightly cold and I prefer to wear tights (and it's a good thing I did because later that night we went to the beach to see fireworks and it was even more cold!) As my outfit was very bluey/greeny I decided to add a touch of pink with my bag which has a bow on it, incase you can't see.

Cardigan - Primark
T Shirt - O'Neil
Skirt - Primark
Tights - Primark
Shoes - New Look
Bag - Select
Butterfly Necklace - Primark !

Didn't realise how much Primark I was wearing till I wrote that out - wow!
Haha, I do hope it doesn't look like a Primark-ish outfit if you know what I mean.

Till next time!
xoxo,
Isabella
