Plenty of Parentheses

Last week took the form of a nice collection of activity-filled few days: I met up with my best friends who I hadn't seen since Christmas; Mum and I took our dog on a long (and windy) walk one morning; I went shopping a couple of times (sadly not for myself) and I finally got round to re-dip dying my hair. So all in all, a pretty decent week.
 

 
 

The pictures suggest that the weather was nicer than it actually was but I can't complain - we managed to avoid the rain! The wind, on the other hand, was out in full force and being the idiot I am, I stupidly left all my gloves at uni so by the time we got home my hands were absolutely frozen. It was worth it though, the walk totally tired Popstar out: she just got a bit comfy on the wrong bed!
 
 
As stated above, I also dip dyed my hair again. My hair really needs a cut but I'm planning to dye the ends red in a few days so I figured I'd cut it after all the hair dying is done. As my hair is so dark naturally, I had to use a pre lightener on it first but I actually love the colour it turns the ends of my hair. Which is ideal really, as I can't dye the ends red straightaway.
 
 
 As for the denim jacket I'm wearing there, I bought it ages ago for a cheeky £10 in the January sales from Urban Outfitters and I swear I wear it all the time. I love the collar detail and it's perfect under my ever-growing collection of men's jumpers.
 
 
 Happy Easter!

It is with the greatest relief that I can say I am home from uni for Easter. It's been an incredibly busy term since Christmas and I can't lie and say it hasn't been terribly testing at times. But like always, things are never quite as bad as they initially seem and here I am, back home for four whole weeks. And boy am I going to make the most of them.
 
I've already caught up with one of my best friends, blitzed my bedroom and eaten more food than is probably necessary. My dog (who I affectionately refer to as Popstar) has spent a lot of time in my room since I've been back and since the rest of the house are mostly still at school and work, I think she's just happy to have a personal playmate. She has started to claim my bed as hers though - I obviously don't wear the trousers (or patterned leggings) in this relationship.



As a little treat after a pretty stressful term at uni, my mum bought the two of us tickets to see Singin' in the Rain at the Palace Theatre, London on Wednesday.


We went to a matinee performance and despite being the second youngest person in the entire theatre, it was such a lovely day out. We had pizza for dinner after it had finished and only just made it in time to Victoria to catch our train home. Mum and I both dance so it was incredible to watch all the tap routines in the show (even if neither of us really understood the story line!) It was a lovely day out though, now all we need is a bit of sun to make this Easter even better.

And Easter Eggs of course. Lots and lots of Easter Eggs.
 
Finally I am now on Bloglovin'. I'm sure you've seen the rumours circulating around the internet about GFC and all that jazz so I got Bloglovin' just to be on the safe side. I spend far too much time finding new blogs to follow that I didn't want to lose all the ones I have already found! If you fancy a follow, you should find the Bloglovin' button on the right hand side of the home page :)

Hope everyone else is planning a nice, relaxed Easter :)
