YOU SAID I WAS THE MOST EXOTIC FLOWER

Skirt-Thrifted (originally from New Look)|Top-Thrifted (charity Shop)|Necklace-Gift|Ring-Portugal (holiday)|

Hey guys,

I've literally been trying to upload these photos all night :( photobucket hates me tonight!!

This outfit is what I wore today, all from charity shops.. however the skirt is originally from New Look. I was drawn to the pretty floral print and it was only £3.00.. bargain!! I really love the texture of the top, which is really oversized but gives it a batwing look. There's not shoes in this picture as I was caught out in the rain and my shoes were wet. Today my photos were taken in my new bedroom, since moving i'm still trying to find a good spot for taking outfit photos. Were really overlooked in our garden so I feel really awkward taking photos out there!! am I being silly? Anyway I think this setting will be ideal for when the weather is crappy.

I'm going to upload my London photos tomorrow, I had such an amazing time.. London was buzzing. I managed to see a couple of public events, the open water swimming on the Serpentine and the mens marathon. The atmosphere was just amazing and I have never been so proud to be British.

Other hightlights were wandering around Brixton, Borough Market, watching the olympics on the big screen near tower bridge and finding a pop-up bar on the top floor of a multi-storey carpark. I'll tell you more tomorrow when the pictures are up :)

Thank you to all my new followers.. i'm nearing that 100 milestone..eeek. I really never thought anyone would want to follow me when I first started but i'm so happy that you all chose too :)

The Asteroid Galaxy Tour and London

The last two days i've been lucky enough to have a trip to London :) I've loved The Asteroid Galaxy Tour for the past 5 years, their a six piece band from Denmark with a kick ass horn section.. which last night consisted of 1 sax player and 2 trumpet players. The vocalist Mette Lindberg.. (one of the prettiest women i've ever seen) has the most amazingly unique and mesmerising singing voices i've ever heard. Lars Iversen is the founder of the band, producer, writes most of the songs and plays the guitar, keyboard and backing vocals in the band (a very talented man I think you'll agree)

And how gorgeous are this band?

Last night I was so happy to of been able to attend their only UK tour date whilst they promote their new album. I really don't understand why they aren't more popular here yet!! The whole band really get into the whole performance with lots of dancing and energy, along with fantastic banter with the audience. If any of you live in or near London I would really recommend The Scala, it's a really lovely and intimate venue.. not the kind of venue you'd expect really good bands to play. The stage isn't raised at all, theres no barriers or hefty security men.. you literally are stood right on top of the band and to me thats the best type of gig.

Well Mette is certainly one of my new style icons, she has an amazing sense of style.

This is what she wore last night :)

I managed to find this clip from the gig on youtube.. I was right on the front row and am probably one of the little head bobbing about in front :)


They were supported by The Foreign Office. This song was used for the ASOS catwalks on their website, which is where I heard of them first. They are such a great band and even better live!! I expect big things from them :)



Love Jo.x
