0 Saturday Styles

After a bunch of internet glitches I managed to get it sorted and I can show you the Saturday Styles which I was going to put on last weekend...buuut before I do that I know there's been a poll and the outcome is that Style Number. 2 has won! So?-this year there'll be a photo shoot done and a large post dedicated to the vintage type style, so look out for that...

This style, though, is a great typical teen outfit. I wore it last week when out with a friend, I think it's a fun style full of pattern and bold colours. What's great about this is it's all from Primark, cheap fashion-I love Primark! What I would do is maybe wear some black leggings to link the black in the top otherwise it may not work as well. I had some feather earrings on with a printed pastel geometric design on which worked well linking with the bird print.

Number. 10

'Teen Style'

So thats that!

0 This Week

Aah, what a good week it's been. Pancake day-good excuse for filling those tums! But me being me I got lost in the moment forgot the camera so I can't show any pics of my day (sorry) but i'm sure you had a good few pancakes...lemon and sugar? -Whats your favorite topping?

Then there was Valentines, a day where we can remember the good things about the ones we love and spend time in their company. I know a lot of people would say we don't need it love should be all year round I agree but I think Valentines in a day to actually embrace it and celebrate. After all there's nothing wrong with a few extra choccies-right?!

On Monday I wanted to try making a tart over eating one for the first time over last weekend. The one I ate was strawberry and cream one. Yummy! I found a recipe and tried it out I think the pastry was a job and a half I put it in for the right time and it still wasn't done so I ended up putting it in for longer to get it cooked and stopped because I thought I wouldn't end up right and I was right cos it tasted slightly bitter sweet. The tart I made was a summer berry and custard so for my first attempt I think I did alright? 

Hope you had a great week

I'm going to start making pictures and posting them on my blog from now on. Not on a certain day just whenever really, it'll be fun! This one was done as I watched a program on penguins I tried to plug in my tablet but for some reason it wouldn't work so I know this picture is slightly bad but oh well I did it with a laptop touch square so it wasn't easy...I hope to do more soon.

For now bye,

0 My February Wish List

We've all got those imaginary wish lists in out head full of goodies we wish we had. This month these are top of the list! I love retro bikes especially in baby blue or pink (with a basket!). I can think of nothing better than riding along in the summer with one of those-aah bliss x. Today I saw a Cath Kidston egg soap how cute is that? Perfect for an Easter gift. Lace floral pumps are to die for!!! I'm lovin' the colour of these ones from Mod Cloth. Then there's bowler hats, my fashion crush this month. I think they suite any outfit especially with fashion blazers. I've had my ears pierced for about three years and my favorite style are dangled hoops so it's no doubt that these look so sweet with the birds on them x. A couple of my friends have tried needle felting and I found a bunch of kits

1 Craft Room Inspiration

Hi everyone this weekend i'm thinking about different craft rooms people have done to take a bit of inspiration when it comes to doing mine soon. I've always since getting into craft wanted to do this sort of thing to my room. But I tell you what I turn into a right green monster each time I see amazing craft rooms. I think 'I want mine to look like that!!!' I know mine won't be as amazing as some online but 'eh it's OK to dream a little...

This one is cute as a button -get it?!

I love the way the scissors are hung up!

Vintage love x

Love the letters on the wall and the red !

This is just so cool xx

Out into the garden how sweet x

This one has been so well thought out...

Jealous- I want those fabrics!

I'm liking the storage desk (wonder where I can get one?)

Hope you get some Inspiration too,

Love,

These were also drawn with biro pens...

Outfits with Blazers look so cool. Try with dresses shorts and anything casual to turn the outfit into a trendy one!

I love the look on this blog bright and clear. It's a woman who makes comic strip style illustrations about her and her cat and they are so good.

1 'a great read'

Hey there, a good book is the ultimate way to finish the day-I know for me it is anyway. Nothing beats a good book to cosy-up with so since recently finishing one I thought I'd tell you about it...
To begin with it's a new author I thought I'd try out and read, Lauren Oliver. She's also done a book called 'Delirium' (which I'm reading). Anyway, It's a teen novel about a popular girl who dies and relives that same day over and over until she makes the right changes. After realizing this, she notices so many things that led to that particular day she died. How the girl who was scorned upon bottled up a secret that would have made things go very differently. How certain things are meant to be and how each minuscule decision has massive impacts to your next path. Each page literally makes you want to carry-on to see what one person say back to the other because after-all she gets to chose what ever she wants to do for her last day...

My Rating: 5 stars (I loved it!)
Ages: Teen-young adult but to be honest books with age guides shouldn't really put you off if your older  than it because it's about the actual story and you either like it or not.
Would I recomend this book? : Yes! I already have
Cost: New, £6.99 places like Amazon and Ebay will be cheaper
Release Date: July 22nd 2010

Click here to see it on amazon

I urge you to read this book or if you have leave a comment about what you thought...

0 Hello 2013!

It's here and there's no doubt that many people are taking up new years resolutions or making a start on something new. Today I thought I'd share with you my blog resolutions seeing as I can't commit to making personal ones!


No. 1
 I wanna try to make my posts more interesting for you to read and interact with. I'll try to put more pictures and videos because I know that the one thing I don't like to do on blogs is read a chunk of text-so sorry about that post a few days ago I needed to say a lot !

No. 2
 I will try to post more regularly but this will be hard with personal stuff going on and so I can't promise but-will try!
 
No. 3
 With this one I want to try and develop more of the T.B.W's blog look. Now I know I change my blog layout a lot but there are a few things I still don't know how to do and when I do there will be less changing so once I've worked it out it will be finally DONE.

No. 4
 A new page will come for 2013 a brand new shiny page but this is a surprise for now because I need to build things to go on it...

No. 5
  Finally I will include more ways for you to get involved like more polls, more ways to share and comment and easily. Getting comments, no matter what blog you have is really encouraging so by making it easier for you to do this will mean more feedback on things to improve and certain things you like on this blog

 

 

Looking forward to this year and I hope you are too! Have a great one guys...

 

With love,

The Butterfly Wing
